Session 5: "Reflection Revolution"

Transform Scattered Thoughts Into Structured Wisdom

The Hook & Transition

You've learned to:

  • Capture insights before they vanish
  • Connect unexpected patterns
  • Walk your way to breakthroughs

But there's one final multiplier that turns information into wisdom.

It's what separates people who 'know things' from people who grow continuously.

And it only takes 5 minutes a day.

The Reflection Resistance Test

When someone says 'you should journal,' what's your first thought?

Truth Bomb!

If you picked any of these, you're imagining the wrong thing.

This isn't about perfect prose or profound insights.

It's about this:

23%
Better Memory Retention

People who reflect for 5 minutes daily show 23% better memory retention.

But more importantly... they spot patterns that change their lives.

AI Prompt: "Here's my boring day: [brief description]. What learning is hidden here?"

Stack it: Reflect while your coffee brews or teeth brush

One user went from "Bad meeting" to "Leading best meetings of career" in 30 days
