-Discover The Power of Your Mindset-

building weakness into strength and strength into POWER

Welcome to the T.E.A.M.

T.E.A.M. Mentality is designed to help redefine our thinking process and discover the true power we all possess within a healthy mindset. As we better understand our inherent human abilities as strong, resilient, and creative beings, we become greater prepared to face challenges in the pursuit of goals and dreams. Thought patterns heavily influence actions, which is why we must learn ways to control the mind. In doing so, we can maximize cognitive awareness, minimize routine inefficiencies, and optimize the way we think. Ultimately, this practice will lead to intentional decision making and purposeful planning to live a healthier, more fulfilling life.

The design of the human body is incredibly versatile, with a highly functional set of tools. We often overlook how purpose-built and able our skeletal structure is, given mobility, dexterity, and a supercomputer sitting atop this vehicle, orchestrating its every move. Imagine a situation where you find yourself alone, having to face a difficult challenge, and suddenly feeling overwhelmed. The awareness to know your mind and body are ready to work with you (not against you) through this moment is a differentiator for success. With the proper preparation, we can build the confidence to know that positive self-assurance and manual cognitive techniques can help us overcome this adversity. Understanding what we are truly capable of holds immense power, and with such awareness, we can begin to define who we are and what we want to achieve. The human brain is built to sustain us, however, there is much to explore if willing to think beyond typical comfort zones. In simplifying the otherwise complex geography of the brain, we have developed the T.E.A.M. Mind Map © for visual aid in navigating inner thoughts and supporting personal goals. Self-exploration and attempts to think differently can often feel intimidating or uncomfortable. This is natural; embracing change isn't always easy. The process to change requires effort, but the brain is stimulated by the actions we take, especially those we recognize as steps towards creating a positive outcome. When the brain's emotional regulation system is activated, neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin are released. These neurotransmitters travel through the nervous system, acting as messengers to different brain regions. This communication helps the brain interpret the situation, make decisions, and take action. Repeatedly engaging in activities associated with positive outcomes can strengthen neural pathways, making it easier to repeat these behaviors and form productive habits. This phenomenon, known as neuroplasticity, highlights the brain's ability to adapt and change based on experience. As we improve visual clarity and self-assertion, ambitions begin to take over and demand accountability. Such aspiration will further fuel thinking in ways that motivate us to take on new responsibilities. Through routine diligence and the powerful practice of 'Self-Health' techniques, the body and mind will respond profoundly to these actions. Only then are we able to produce the best version of ourselves. This practice doesn't just benefit the individual- healthy habits allow us to better support those around us as well. When considering how to best support ourselves, we also look toward those we trust and can depend on. The goal is for these relationships to become reciprocal. Just as we seek value in others, the inverse also applies to our personal sense of worth. There is accountability in knowing others depend on us and this will instill a sense of pride and purpose uniquely found in a supportive role. Cultivating relationships, heightened self-awareness and stronger communication skills help to build a greater sense of satisfaction and success through collaborative interactions. It's natural to want to build relationships, we are social beings and survival teaches us there is strength in numbers. Emotions, however, complicate this basic concept and can quickly confuse thought patterns. To navigate personal growth we must embrace the growth of others and remember that Individual performance must remain in context; individual. People operate at different speeds and capacities, as long as we're collectively working towards positive goals the results will bear fruit. This formative growth is momentum shifting but starts with an individual decision to control our own narrative. T.E.A.M. Mentality is designed to support this personal process and help shape a vision for the future. We all stand to learn more by working together, which helps to make informed decisions. Such collaboration is similarly illustrated as neurons ignite in various patterns when processing data. This neurological activity produces energy, approximately 20 watts of power, and why we often hear thinking referred to as "A lightbulb turned on”. Through various scanning methods (Ex: fMRI), we know that the more we stimulate our minds, the more energy we produce. Fueling the brain directly correlates to the level of ambition we feel towards any activity. By focusing attention on goals that stimulate positive interests, we can propel this brain activity and effectively prompt our own ambitious nature. As individuals who naturally seek happiness, love, and hope, we too light up as we become motivated by all this world has to offer. Life is more meaningful as we discover true purpose and share our talents with others. As a spectator seeking to learn more or a participant ready to take action in your life, we invite you to join T.E.A.M. Mentality, as all are welcome.

Our greatest asset in life which cannot be replaced- Time will allow us to Create, Destroy, and Heal but most of all Think. Our ability to cognitively process information and take action empowers us to innovate and explore. If we wish to maximize our potential, we must become experts in Managing Minutes. Throughout our day we inevitably spend time on all types of activities. Knowing we only have 1440 minutes to accomplish our daily goals, each minute counts. Clock management teaches us; time saved is time earned. As we learn to gain minutes and use them more effectively, we will begin to fulfill key objectives more easily. Such time awareness is essential in planning for a healthier & more successful future.

Knowledge is instrumental for survival in life. The more we learn, the more we understand about ourselves and our surroundings. Comprehension

of personal wellness and

environmental conditions allows us to make better choices, possibly in an expedited manner. Intelligence supports informed decisions, which will lead to greater actions. Acting with productive motives rather than selfish ambition will create

recognizable value and present opportunities for more sustainable gains. The confidence earned and efficiencies produced through this process can then be reinvested into more education for continued growth. This Knowledge Cycle will improve our everyday life and help to propel us towards our goals.

Challenges can present great

opportunities. It is in the most adverse moments which we will gain the highest understanding of ourselves and our abilities. What do we do in these times?

How do we prioritize tasks? Why do we push through in search of solutions? The answers to these questions begin to define us as individuals. We all have strengths and weaknesses. Our true value is earned as we build and grow through adversity. Training ourselves to maintain a steady mindset during these moments will help us think more clearly and persevere. In doing so, we will evolve as we develop weaknesses into strengths and strengths into talents.

Visualization starts in the mind, not the eye. Eyes often lead to distraction. The mind is where we can cultivate grand visions and foster greatness. As children we have wild imaginations, where anything is possible. Until of course we experience life firsthand and learn of 'reality', a harsh awakening which often lowers expectations. We all have dreams, but to harness them and develop the ideas

associated with achieving such lofty goals can often be dismissed as impossibility. Where to start any new idea may feel overwhelming (so many moving parts to consider). Taking the first step is how we change the narrative and begin to follow our own plan. We must believe in ourselves long before others will and our willingness to do so is how we set forth in achieving that which we manifest.

Origin Story

Justin Simmons - Founder

Growing up, I was always fascinated by mechanical devices and how machines operated. Once allowed to use my father’s tools, I spent more time taking toys apart and reassembling them or retrofitting them into hybrid versions of themselves than just playing with the actual toy. This curiosity followed me into adulthood, as I have forged a career out of designing technical solutions.

Working in the field of Energy Technology and Software Automation, I have spent years finding ways to optimize the design and operation of electrical, mechanical, and software systems for complex buildings and critical infrastructure. While exploring these engineering efficiencies, I found the common denominator for successful projects was less about the design and more about the people responsible for managing the installation. I didn’t understand this initially, instead, I would credit great design documents and robust product offerings. Soon, I discovered the reality that the right team could solve for any flawed design or missing products.

Despite all the engineering documentation, construction planning, technical narratives, and installation guides, the one missing component never considered on paper was the individual personalities of those responsible for installing and operating these latest technologies. Throughout this process, there are thousands of man-hours participating in logistical coordination and systems integrations. The human interactions required to achieve these goals are exhaustive and highly stressful at times. This is where I began to recognize that an ability to communicate and articulate complex messaging for various audiences actually held as much, if not more value than any of my technical product knowledge.

Typically, I tend to apply a positive attitude during adverse situations, which is often the case in this line of business. In doing so, I not only gained success in my career but also noticed consistent patterns in people during high-stress situations. I found there was a distinct correlation between the quality of efficient communication and perceived stress levels. So, I began exploring how I could possibly improve participant morale within these environments, regardless of role or responsibility. My concept was fundamental; by fostering the emotional and psychological well-being of individuals, I hoped to help them control and communicate their thoughts more clearly. Simple enough, I ambitiously imagined, but where to begin…

As people, we are motivated by what we need, what makes us happy, and what we want (typically in that order). When these priorities become rearranged, we may find ourselves feeling out of balance or loosing control of routine tasks. We are empowered by what we are good at, what makes us feel important, and, of course, what brings us a sense of achievement. However, getting there isn’t easy- it requires the commitment to maintain the right mindset. Naturally, we all must learn some lessons the hard way in life, but what if we could minimize them? This notion of reverse engineering tasks and finding efficient means of operation has been my life’s curiosity and inevitably brought me to develop the program 'T.E.A.M. Mentality™'.

T.E.A.M. Mentality is based on a philosophy of simplifying the complex to gain a greater understanding of how we think and operate. My goal is to help others discover the raw power we all possess, the power achieved through one's mindset. More than just a saying, there is science-backed evidence that shows how thinking patterns impact performance. This science is the basis of our program and the inspiration behind the T.E.A.M. Mind Map ©. Without strong cognitive awareness, we risk never reaching our true potential. The brain is infinitely perplexing, but when categorized into more manageable segments and terms, we begin to unlock the mystery behind why we do anything.
