Living 100% Now
Welcome
Living 100% Now motivates children and adults to perform at their best and live with clarity, happiness, and security—creating a life of joy, success, and meaningful contribution. Its foundation on Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) helps children develop behaviors leading to happiness, success, and values. Grounded in behavioral principles like differential reinforcement, shaping and visible documentation, this approach teaches how to invest daily energy into priority areas such as physical, mental, social, and spiritual health.
Each day, we wake with energy. Through structured planning and implementation following the Formula9091, we achieve confidence, motivation, performance and resilience.
Chapter One: Maximum Performance Management helps parents and educators guide children to focus on high-value tasks first. Using stimulus control, visual schedules, and positive feedback, kids learn to self-regulate and complete important goals with pride.
As children master foundational behaviors, later steps reinforce responsibility, empathy, and purpose. The skills they build at home generalize to school, relationships, and future careers, supported by generalization strategies and value-based reinforcement.
Living 100% is being our best every day, developing a positive habit that becomes our future.

Get ready to unlock a world of extraordinary outcomes by transforming the way you think!
The secret? It’s all about rewriting your mental code—shifting from self-defeating, negative thought patterns to an energetic, positive, and action-driven mindset. Imagine the possibilities when you trade hesitation for confidence, fear for determination, and doubt for unstoppable belief in yourself.
This isn’t just positive thinking—it’s a complete mental upgrade. By actively reprogramming your inner dialogue, you’ll:
• Break through barriers that once seemed impossible.
• Seize opportunities with courage and clarity.
• Achieve outcomes you once thought were out of reach.
The power is in your hands. Replace “I can’t” with “I will.” Transform “What if I fail?” into “What if I succeed beyond my wildest dreams?”
With every step, every thought, and every choice, you’ll create a life fueled by possibility and purpose. It’s not just about thinking differently—it’s about living differently.
Are you ready to take control and design the future you deserve? Let’s start now.
Possible plans: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Hypnosis, Reality Therapy, Behavior Modification.
