The Code of the Extraordinary Mind

Lakhiani, the founder of Mindvalley, sets out ten “laws” for identifying which of your beliefs are inherited rules you never chose — what he calls brules — and replacing them.

Why it’s on the list: Named in the replies to @SpencrGreenberg asking what non-fiction book taught you the most about how the world really works — a crowd-sourced list Kyle recovered by hand and saved. Kyle’s line gives only the first name, “Vishen,” which is enough: the author is Vishen Lakhiani.

Where I saw it: In the replies to @SpencrGreenberg asking “What non-fiction book taught you the most about how the world (or how humanity or society) really works?” (June 5, 2025). Kyle recovered the reply list by hand and saved it to his “Books To Read” Apple Note; the full transcribed list lives on A question for you — What non-fiction… (tweet).
