One More
“One more” is the unifying philosophy of the book. It tells readers to always give one more effort, one more attempt, one more thought, and one more chance in life. One more thinkers, leaders, and multipliers are people who practice The One More Mindset to enhance others’ lives and their own.
The Matrix
Taken from the 1999 film by the Wachowski sisters, the Matrix is Mylett’s term for how individuals perceive the world. This is related to the reticular activating system, which controls how individuals perceive and think about the world. Mylett argues that you can intentionally alter your Matrix by practicing the one more mindset.
Reticular Activating System
The reticular activating system (RAS) is a part of the brain that controls consciousness, behavior, and perception. Although this anatomical segment of the brain has many complex functions, Mylett focuses on the RAS and its ability to filter perceptions of reality. Mylett claims that learning to control the RAS is a key to achieving your goals in life.
