Hi, my name is Scott Whitlock. I’m a lifetime learner with a passion for developing mental practices and techniques not only to better myself, but to share with others in order to help them realize their very best life. I’ve spent the past 25 years studying and writing on the science and techniques of self-improvement and more recently, the role meditation plays in personal development. I’d like to spend a few minutes here sharing with you who I am and why I’m here.

I guess you could say that being interested in how the mind works runs in the family. You see, my father is a retired neurosurgeon and I was always fascinated by his stories and wealth of knowledge, especially when it came to how the mind works. I grew up going to his office and hospitals on the weekends where I got to watch him work. It was in those formative years that my quest began for a better understanding of how the mind works and how I could use it to help me achieve the goals that I had for my life.

After graduating high school and studying business at both Missouri State and Drury Universities, I used my education and personal drive to partner with a good friend to launch what is now the largest medical supply business in southwest Missouri.

While managing the medical supply business, I earned my real estate broker’s license in 1985 and acquired a property management company. I furthered my real estate career by developing, managing and selling residential and commercial properties.

Also, I’ve always had a great passion for the outdoors. I’m a conservationist, hunter and fisherman with the emphasis being on conservation, I simply love to be in nature. Returning to the rhythm of the earth by spending time improving wildlife habitat, or simply enjoying the sunshine, is a tremendous experience that I love.

About ten years ago, I invented and patented a line of products in the field of outdoor gear. This allowed me to turn may passion for the outdoors into a business. With this business I’ve enjoyed helping others gain more enjoyment from their time outdoors.

In all of my different businesses and experiences in life, one thing has become obvious to me: I am geared to help others. Whether it’s providing my community with the very best medical supplies, providing rewarding employment opportunities, renting or selling someone their first home, or simply helping people enjoy the great outdoors, I truly enjoy making others happy.

A couple of years ago, I realized that conveying my quarter century’s worth of education and ideas to help others live truly happy and rewarding lives was to be my new mission. While I’m still very active in the medical supply business, I recently sold both my real estate and outdoor gear businesses and started a new company based on my philosophy of balanced mind and balanced life.

I was born and raised in Springfield Missouri and have remained here both to be near my family and for all that the Midwest has to offer. My passion to help others achieve their best life is exceeded only by my passion for my family. My wife Charlene and I recently celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and we have two kids, Benjamin and Courtney, who are both still at home. We are the closest of families and enjoy a huge variety of hobbies, sports and the outdoors.

It’s now my intention to dedicate more time to my passion of educating people of the possibilities of designing better and more fulfilling lives, while truly enjoying every step and process along the way. I like to say: Success is measured by the level of happiness and fulfillment a person experiences on their average day. My goal is to touch lives in a way that not only promotes happiness and well being, but makes happiness and well being a way of everyday life. It’s my dream that one day, with a twinkle in your eye and a smile on your face; you will be able to reflect on a rewarding life that was lived happily and on purpose because of something that I was able to pass on.

All of the very best,

Scott Whitlock
