MythoSelf® Experience
All 7 exercises (and more!)/ 2.5 day program
Dublin, July 2008 with Frieda McGoldrick
If you've done lots of personal development work already, and you're still seeking and searching, this program is for you. You will get useful practical answers to such questions as:
What is life about?
What's my purpose?
What should I be doing?
How can I attract the things I want into my life?
And if you are beginning to ask these questions of yourself, this MythoSelf® program will be a fantastic start for you!
What you get...
The three major things that you will get from this program are:- A profound and immensely satisfying sense of yourself
- A realisation of the purpose of your own life
- A decision making process that allows you to move in the direction that fulfils this purpose
Many people spend a lot of time wondering about the right thing for them to be doing, or the perfect partner, or the place for them to be, so that they can feel happy, content, fulfiled and so on. Sooner or later they realize that the answer is not out there, but is contained within.
So the question then is ''How do I access it within me and bring it out into the world?' Then begins another search! It may be suggested that you need years of practice, or you need to do intense change work on yourself and eventually, at some point in time in the future, you might get it.
MythoSelf® - Rediscover the REAL you
This MythoSelf® program cuts through all the hype and the mystery and the unknowing and the deceptions. The intention is not to end up in 10 or 20 years time having the life you want. It is not a process whereby at the end of it you come to realise who you are.
We make this the starting point. That's right, the starting point. The MythoSelf® process is based on those things that actually work. So within the first few hours of the program, you will be facilitated into having an experience of yourself when you're at your very best, an experience of what it's like when the essence of who you really are shines out, when you are totally present in the here and now, and knowing that like this, your life works.
Because you've already had times in your life when you are magnificent, when things are going your way, when you're on top form and everything feels right with the world. You know you're okay and you also have a deep-rooted sense of how you fit into the world.
"I highly recommend it.
I am now operating from my core. Through the workshop I became more centred and know how to be true to myself in all situations.
There's just no other way to be for me now."
- Ann Kelly, life coach
And this MythoSelf® Experience program is about taking this sense of yourself and using it as the foundation for the rest of your life. So instead of it being the endpoint as in many other therapies or modalities, the MythoSelf® process uses this as the starting point. The idea then is to build the skills and the experience and knowledge so that you get to keep this intact.
You keep this intact regardless of what's going on around you, and regardless of what other people are saying about you, and regardless of your past...
Because regardless of what your past has been, your future is unknown. Many people want to know what the future holds, they want to be in control. So the easiest way for them to do that is to take what occurred in the past and put that into their future. Because then they will know what will happen. However, it obviously prevents them from living the life that they actually want to be living!
The MythoSelf® process gives you control of yourself (the only thing you can control anyway!) and allows you to keep your sense of self constant while you move into the future that you want to be creating. A future, of course, which allows you to express your purpose in the world. Which means it would be incredibly useful to know what that purpose is...
Aligning with your purpose...
And this will be the second major aspect of this MythoSelf® Experience weekend. Because we all have a purpose, something that drives us, something that motivates us to continue living. However, most people are quite unaware of what their purpose is. A few have some sense of it, and a smaller group know exactly what their purpose is and even know how to align themselves with it.
These are the people who are successful in all aspects of their lives. They seem to be lucky. They seem to be the right place at the right time. It seems like opportunity after opportunity presents itself to them and they pick and choose the direction for themselves. They seem to be attracting the things they want and they also know how to actually let these things in.
So this too is on offer over this MythoSelf® weekend. You will be facilitated (by experts!) into developing a profound body felt awareness of what your own purpose is. You will also come to understand those times in your life when you are operating in accordance with your purpose. And remembering that this MythoSelf® weekend is about what works in your life, you'll also learn how to position yourself so that you are aligned and connected with this purpose, and how to keep this connection intact.
"This was a wonderful and powerful experience. I came away with a strong sense of my destiny and specifically how I might make that a reality. Thank you David as the gifted catalyst in this process of realisation."
- Karen Dean, Executive Coach
MythoSelf®: What it's not...
We will not be spending much time on those things that draw you away from your purpose, or on the things that have held you back up to now. Remember that this MythoSelf® program is about what actually works for you. Instead, we will explore what it's like for you when life is going well and things are going your way and how specifically these things occur.That doesn't mean the MythoSelf® process simply ignores problems or difficulties. But when things are actually working you are out the far side of problems and implementing the practical solutions!
This information is incredibly powerful because once you are aware of it you can use it to have more of what you want in your life. You can use it to create a life that is effortless and worthwhile. That's not to say that it's always easy and comfortable, but when it's time to look back over your life, you will know without doubt or hesitation that you have lived a life worth living.
But more importantly, after this MythoSelf® weekend, in every moment when you're actually living your life, you will know that
- you're being the person you want to be
- you are doing the things you want to be doing,
- and you are where you want to be in relation to the things that you want to have.
How to..
The Mythoself® process was created and designed by Joseph Riggio and in many ways it's the step-by-step 'how-to' of being yourself... thinking positively... living your own life... getting in touch which your own inner wisdom... and even accessing your own spirituality.Decisions, decisions...!
We make many decisions every day and many of these are outside of our awareness, because oftentimes, we don't even know how we make decisions! And yet the decisions we make are even more important than the outcomes we set for ourselves. Because the decisions we make determine not just whether we achieve those outcomes or not, but how we achieve them.And when you consider that people spend more time aiming at their outcomes and doing things to achieve them, then actually basking in the glory of having achieved them, how we achieve outcomes becomes significant because of the relative amount of time of our life we spend at it .
So do you know how you make decisions? What's you're starting point? What are your criteria for making decisions? To what extent do you consider yourself in the decision? Do you consider the impact on others and the emotional affect it has on them? Do you give others too much significance? Or just enough?
Do you find yourself constantly changing your mind and frequently changing your decisions? Or even going in loops unable to make a decision at all?
MythoSelf® decision making...
If you want to learn a decision making processes that puts you first and allows you to journey along the path of your own life, then this program is for you!
"Isn't it always the way that the simplest things are the best. This weekend is so simple. But so powerful."
- Harry Torney, Holistic Dentist
Remember this MythoSelf® program is about what works for you. And there have been times when you have made great decisions. It was almost as if before you even made the decision you knew what you were going to decide. At the time of making this decision you knew it was the right one. And thinking back on it the decision was the right one and even over time it remains a good decision.
Sublime self awareness
At each of these stages, there are internal signals or indicators they give you all the information you need to know that it's a good decision. During this program you will learn what your own personal internal signals are and you will be given the chance to practice with them so you become familiar with using them. You will also learn how to structure your decisions so that the signals work for you and the results of your decisions allow you to stay on your path and live your own life, the life you ought to be living!When you learn to pay attention to the signals, and more importantly to act on them, it allows you to trust yourself, to rely on your own judgement. Rather then being influenced by others to do what they think you should do, you know for sure what's right for you, what's appropriate for you and who you are becoming.
This means that you get to do more of those things that you want to be doing and less of the things you don't want to be doing. You will no longer need other people's approval. Instead you will be self assured and confident about doing those things to allow you to move forward in your life.
Time savings
A major benefit here is the time you will save. Firstly, you save time because you make better decisions more quickly. You won't spend time wondering 'what if...? or 'should I or should I not...?' You will know when to time you're decisions and when to act on them.Secondly, you won't waste time doing things that turn out to be unsatisfying and unfulfilling for you. Either because you don't start doing it in the first place, or as soon as you realise that it's not for you, you understand how to change your decision quickly and easily to do other things that are for your own benefit. And indeed for the benefit of those around you, too.
"Perhaps you are wondering whether you might do a course with David. They should be a warning attached:
THIS WORK WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
David McDermott is a man of integrity. He has learned a way of being in the world that he wants to share with others, a way of being himself, absolutely, at his best, without compromise or vacillation.
When you meet him, you'll find that this makes him a very unusual person, displaying in equal measure a certain quiet ruthlessness and immense good humour.
It is rare to be able to guarantee things about another person. With David I have no hesitation in doing this: if you choose to work with him, or go to one of his trainings, your time and money will be well spent. You will have an experience of yourself as you are when everything in your life is just right, and you will learn how to replicate this experience at will."
Biddy O Connor.
How is all this possible?
How can we offer so much in this two and a half day MythoSelf® program? It's because we start with who you are.In all areas of your life, in every situation, in every relationship, you are present. But who is this person who shows up? Are you really the personality that has been moulded and shaped by others over time? Or do you recognise that there is something else present, a deep felt sense of yourself that you don't quite know how to bring out into the world?
And there may be many reasons for this. You have learned to hide it away in case you get you into trouble or upset others. Or you're living up to other people's expectations. Or you're being marched down a path that has been created, by others, for you.
But despite this, you're magnificence emerges every now and then. And when it does, living is effortless. The world seems to revolve around you and provide you with opportunities and choices that make it easy for you to get what you want.
But these times don't seem to last very long. It may be a few minutes or a few hours, or even a few days. But somehow it disappears. And the frustration is that you don't know how to get it back. You don't know how to create these times in your life when you have this sense that you're being absolutely true to yourself.
Having and holding onto it
This MythoSelf® program is designed to allow you to create more and more of these times. To create them from the inside out. So instead of having to wait for external things to be going well so that you can feel good, you begin to generate this sense of satisfaction and fulfillment on the inside. And then instead of searching in the world for ways to find fulfilment, you are only ever noticing for opportunities to increase the sense of satisfaction you already have.This is a subtle distinction but it makes the world of difference. Instead of an endless quest to find something, or even to find yourself, you start with your sense of self intact and you begin to organise your life to keep this intact. You constantly find new ways to express this out into the world.
"An extremely powerful experience with no complicated techniques that can only be of benefit to your life. It's simplicity is as astounding as it is rewarding. Brilliant. Thank you."
- Michael Cranston, Hose Doctor

The MythoSelf® program in Barcelona will be facilitated by David Mc Dermott and Frieda Mc Goldrick, currently the only female trainer of the MythoSelf® Process. It will be presented in English with simultaneous Spanish translation. The Dublin MythoSelf® program will be facilitated by Frieda.
Frieda Mc Goldrick
Here's what people have been saying after working with Frieda McGoldrick:
"I have attended a weekend course with Frieda and I learned how to make all my dreams come true. In my life, return on investment is very important. I had to take a leap of faith on making the investment in the weekend without knowing the return. At the end of the weekend and still through to today, I would pay four times the amount for the weekends experience and the value it has given my day to day life" - Paul Spillane
"Working with Frieda enabled me to change what wasn’t working in my life and to go for what I really wanted. I now trust myself 100%. I take all decisions in full confidence. I know that my life is full of possibilities and I love it! I highly recommend you work with Frieda. You really can get what you want..."
- Thierry Peurois - Chef
Take the opportunity...
So if you are at a stage in your life where you'd like to have a stable and confident sense of who you really are, and have a powerful and personal decision making process that gives direction in your life so you consistently know where you are going and what to do to get there, then it's time for you to step forward and do what it takes for you to attend this MythoSelf® Experience program in Dublin in July, 2008...
