I'm 45. At 36, I had $11 left in the bank after my first startup failed (I lost my life savings). Then, I discovered Joe Dispenza's work on reprogramming your brain, and made my first million at 40. 9 of his insights that transformed my life (and will do the same for you):

Bobby Fischer is the most insane chess player in history. His dominance was so extreme that:. • He became US Champion at 14 (still a record).• Earned Grandmaster at 15 (youngest in history).• Then became a wanted fugitive by the US government. Here's his wild story: 🧵

Fischer spent his final years as a fugitive. 9 months in Japanese prison. Iceland finally gave him citizenship in 2005. He died there in 2008, convinced the world was run by conspiracies. The greatest chess mind ever got destroyed by his own demons.

During those 20 years, Fischer:. • Became a recluse.• Joined a doomsday cult.• Developed extreme paranoia.• Made horrific antisemitic statements. In 1992, he played a match in Yugoslavia, breaking the rules. The US issued a warrant for his arrest. He never returned home:.

In 1975, Fischer was set to defend his title. He made demands. Some reasonable, some insane. When they weren't all met, he walked away. Fischer forfeited the World Championship. He wouldn't play competitive chess again for 20 years:.

What happened next stunned the world. Fischer won 7 of the next 8 games, losing only once. In game 6, his play was so brilliant that Spassky, his opponent, stood up and applauded. Fischer became the 11th World Champion, crushing his opponent. Then everything fell apart:.

Fischer almost didn't play. He demanded more money and refused to show up. A British banker donated extra funds. Then Fischer lost the first game. And forfeited the second over camera disputes. Down 2-0, everyone thought it was over:.

The USA took on the USSR at the height of the Cold War. Fischer faced Boris Spassky, backed by the entire Soviet chess machine. For the first time in history, chess made front-page news worldwide:

Something unprecedented happened. Fischer went on a 20-game winning streak against the world's best players. Former World Champion Botvinnik called it "a miracle.". Nobody has come close to matching it since. To understand how dominant Fischer was:.

Today, Magnus Carlsen (5x World Champion) is 60 rating points ahead of his nearest rival. In 1972, Fischer was 125 points ahead. He wasn't just better, he was playing a different game entirely. The 1972 World Championship changed everything:

By age 15, Fischer had:. • Won the US Championship.• Become the youngest Grandmaster ever.• Taught himself Russian to read Soviet chess books. His IQ? Over 180. His dedication? He dropped out of school at 16 to play chess full-time:

In 1956, a 13-year-old Fischer destroyed International Master Donald Byrne in what's still called "The Game of the Century.". He sacrificed his queen. Then unleashed a mating attack so brilliant it's still studied 60+ years later. But this was just the beginning:

In 1979, someone secretly detonated a nuclear bomb. It revealed an alliance so shocking that:. • The CIA sealed files implicating a close US ally.• A Soviet spy exposed their hidden involvement.• Jimmy Carter noted, "it was from a ship". Here's who was behind the bomb: 🧵

South Africa. But why cover for Israel?. Because it was a "crucial US ally". Israel maintains "nuclear ambiguity" to this day. Exposing them would've destroyed key relationships. Some rules transcend even nuclear treaties. The files remain classified 45 years later.

President Carter wrote in his diary: "It was from a ship.". But whose ship?. France had a legal test site 7,000 miles away. No French naval traffic detected. That left one suspect with ships in the area:.

The panel concluded: "Probably not nuclear. Likely a meteorite.". This despite:. • 41 previous correct detections.• Multiple sensor confirmations.• Physical evidence of radiation. The cover-up was complete:
