We tackle the issue of countering toxicity. The focus is on being “Defiant Giants.” You must stand strong against toxic people who may be actively tearing you down, or simply indifferent. To avoid falling prey to negativity, Tom Marcoux and Johanna E. discuss the need to establish a supportive and encouraging community around you.
Johanna shares a personal experience where a close friend ghosted her. Tom and Johanna stress the importance of developing a tribe or community that celebrates each other’s successes.
Do you deal with toxic people? Are you vulnerable? Recently, one of my course students, David MacDowell Blue, used a strategy from one of my online courses*. He wrote: “This course helped me even deal with a violent stranger in downtown Los Angeles.”
1.Myth: Read a book. Or just listen to a lecture, and you own the material.
Powerful Truth: Knowledge is just noise unless you can recall it instantly.
I have served more than 20 years as an educator. I have worked as a guest lecturer at Stanford University, Sofia University, California State University — Chico…Adjunct Instructor at Academy of Art University and more.
I have seen when education goes off track.
As a remedy, I have developed methods as part of my science Code Access Reset™.
In my courses, I use methods to make the material memorable. Then, you can have instant recall in a “clutch moment.” In basketball, for example, a clutch moment is when a player shoots and scores or shoots and chokes. It is a pressure-filled moment.
In one of my courses, I have the students practice a “Conscious Breath” so they can shift their perception in an instant.
I invite you to learn more about online courses from the Tom Marcoux Institute.
To get beyond this first myth, I will share a Powerful Process with you in this article …
2.Myth: Other people control how you feel.
Powerful Truth: You can modify how the neurons fire in your brain.
Hebb’s Law states: Neurons that fire together wire together.
To change how you react in a tough situation, it helps when you practice new skills.
For example…
A Powerful Process:
If you feel something is wrong in a situation:
1) Take a slow breath (a “conscious breath’). 2) Focus on these 3 “What” Questions:
a) What am I feeling? b) What do they want? c) What if all this is NOT true?
I go into further detail about this process in my course Darkest Secrets of Persuasion and Seduction Masters: How to Protect Yourself and Turn the Power to Good.
Here, I emphasize that practicing the dual skills of the Conscious Breath and What-Questions helps you shift your perceptions and get access to your cognitive skills. That’s when you can think clearly and make good decisions. You can protect your well-being. You can elevate your life. The Power of Elevation occurs when you can use new skills in the clutch moment.
Remember:
Powerful Truth: Knowledge is just noise unless you can recall it instantly.
May these insights support your path.

In this episode, learn how to create real transformation in yourself. Also, here what Tom Marcoux would share in a “one final speech.” Curious? Listen in.
“Damn! That went bad,” my new client, Marina, said. “What bothered you the most?” I asked. “I could see it. Many people in the audience disconnected,” she said.
This began a significant conversation.
I mentioned how people have different styles of hearing. Some people lean toward hearing the positive. The negative details bounce off them. Other people want to “hear the bad news first.” They claim that they want the realistic view, and they can take it.
Here’s an example. When I speak on the topic of Darkest Secrets of Scaling, I help business owners face essential truths that assist them to expand and upgrade their businesses.
I reach the audience members in two ways. I share the tough realities — what some may call the truths that bring up “negative” impressions.
The Darkest Secrets of Scaling:
1. You can lose all trust in a moment. 2. It’s easy to make people afraid to tell you the truth. 3. If you don’t have a reserve now, how can you handle more?
Secondly, I share related positive actions.
Positive Actions:
1. Communicate your actual trustworthiness. 2. Appreciate people who tell the truth. 3. Work daily to improve your reserve*.
* I speak of your reserve in terms of a “stored capacity” of calm, positive energy, and ability to perceive the overall situation. Your reserve helps you respond well to people and make excellent decisions.
During our coaching session, I guided Marina to develop her presentations and casual remarks that include both the “negative” and “positive” so people can hear her and understand the meaning of her material. This is how you can effectively lead and persuade people. You cover both the positive and the negative.
Do you speak in ways that reach people who lean toward the positive? And, do you have material that brings up relevant “negative” details for people who respond better to the tough realities?
As the Communication Sage and Spoken Word Strategist, I have seen my clients do well when they expand their “toolkit” of ways to communicate. When you talk about a tough reality, share positive actions that can be used to improve the situation. Even better, ask for responses of your audience about their ideas of actions that can contribute to improvements. Truly engage the listeners.
How can you say your most important points in positive ways and also include tough-minded details that acknowledge real-world problems?
May these insights support your great moments.
