If you’re like me, you’ve read countless books with wonderful advice. The problem is, when you don’t use the information, you lose it. Applying the material in your life is what makes the knowledge stick. Without application, practice, and the building of habits around the material you learned, the positive changes you hoped for never materialize. You need to live it!
“I am excited to hear about the launching of the Top 20 website, Living Top 20. My husband and I attended a Top 20 seminar months ago and I have noticed that some of the ideas presented slowly faded away. As with anything in life, ‘if you don’t use it you lose it.’ With this website, I am hoping that through discussions, and sharing stories and experiences, I can make the Top 20 principles a natural, effortless way to live.” – Margaret Galowicz
A Living Top 20 membership is a great fit for anyone who wants to apply Top 20’s principles and tools in their daily life. Living Top 20 helps you by providing ways to learn and interact with the Top 20 material. We help you build better mental habits.
Everyone wants a better life. Who wouldn’t? However, “wanting” and “doing” are worlds apart. For instance, most people want to exercise but have trouble following through. That’s why Living Top 20 created Habit Builders—to make the “doing” easier!
We deliver our material to you in sections. We do this so you are not overwhelmed with too much at once, and you have time to practice and apply what you’re learning in a natural way.
Becoming a “better you” doesn’t have to be overwhelming. When delivered in manageable and fun bite-sized bits, the material can become part of your daily life without distracting from your daily “to-dos”!
“To be able to learn more Top 20 through LivingTop20.com in small doses, from the convenience of my home and then be able to apply it to my professional and personal life, is handy. Are you going to be that Top 20% of positive, forward thinkers?” -Michelle Pavlik, Vice-Principal
We want to have better relationships, become better parents, and be better leaders at work, but most of us have plenty on our plates already. We don’t always have time to study the next self-help book. Even when we do, we often forget what we read and return to status quo.
Our Habit Builders include short, monthly videos—less than five minutes each to easily fit into your busy life—followed by brief email reminders to help you put into practice that month’s Top 20 tools. Becoming a member of Living Top 20 makes learning easier as the reminders keep the material ever present in your mind, without requiring a huge investment of your time.
“Being a parent is hard work! Being a ‘good’ parent presents even larger challenges – and having solid tools in our toolbox is essential to doing well. I felt that what I learned about Top 20 showed that it could offer me bite size lessons that weren’t too big to fit in my toolbox. I will be back for more!” -Pam Gowda, Parent
The depth of Top 20 Training’s material is phenomenal. Through Living Top 20’s Habit Builders, the delivery system is manageable.
Living Top 20’s material builds over time. We’ll begin with the Top 20 Cornerstones and Foundations of Thinking, then move into Learning and Communicating.
Here’s a list of topics for our first year of Habit Builders:
Habit Builders Months 1-3 with Top 20 Author Willow Sweeney:
Habit Builders Months 4-12 with Top 20 Authors Tom Cody and Paul Bernabei:
“I must have over one hundred Thought Circles each and every day. I honestly didn’t even realize what they were. I suppose I just figured they were my mind wandering. However, after the Thought Circle class, I realized that they could, in fact, be stopped. Since then I have employed the “Stop, Not Now” technique and my mind seems to become more and more uncluttered each day!” – Monica
Once we understand Thinking, we’ll move into Learning and Communicating. Below is a list of what’s coming.
LEARNING: Book-Smarts (A Sample)“The listening levels taught me to prevent my mind from wandering. Cutting down the amount of judging, having my life on my mind, and not letting the distractions get the best of me really helped to improve my grades and to be more aware of what is going on in class.” – Theresa
“One bored ninth grader of mine decided to use the first five minute technique and paid attention in a math class that he was failing. After one week he told me that he was now connecting in class. He raised his grade from a D to a low B in just a few weeks.” -Pat (high school teacher)
“After TLC (Top 20’s Think, Learn and Communicate class) I tried to watch other people and their non-verbals. Our teacher gave more respect and attention to the kids that had good non-verbals.” -Matt
Living Top 20 constantly reviews these essential tools and features a “Putting It All Together” section so that the material isn’t just learned, but lived!
Heck, the entire TOWN of Fairmont, Minnesota, has adopted Top 20! Read below . . .
Down in the south-central heart of Minnesota sits, far from idly, a community watching their own potential explode!
Top 20 Training has been working with school faculty and staff, principals, students, parents, hospitals, businesses, community leaders, and many more throughout the nation for 12 years, but we never hit all of those groups with one fell swoop, in one town . . . until Fairmont, Minnesota. Fairmont is the first community in the nation to take on an endeavor this big and with such promise and determination.
Led by the enthusiasm, positivity, and insights of Police Chief Greg Brolsma and his committee, Top 20 Training has spent many days training throughout Fairmont. We have now trained students, teachers, parents, business leaders, senior citizens, and various community members. The continued relationship between Top 20 Training and Fairmont is one that is truly cherished and valued.
The following email was sent from Mike Riley of Profinium Bank. Mike has been an essential piece of bringing Fairmont, Minnesota: A Top 20 Community’s goal and vision to fruition. Read below about the current initiatives in their community.
“The whole Fairmont community is buzzing about Top 20 again. We just had a Top 20 committee meeting yesterday and exciting things are happening in the Fairmont area and Martin County:
– Mike Riley
Building better Thinking, Learning, and Communicating skills creates a better culture. I think real estate in Fairmont might go up!
It’s simple, really. Living Top 20 is about building better habits that support personal empowerment while busting habits that block your potential, like blame, self-doubt, or anger.

“I will not only use this information (from Top 20’s Teacher book, in store now) in my classroom but in my personal life. This is valuable for all seasons…a must for all teachers.” -Colleen, Teacher
“My first part of high school ripped me apart socially and academically and lowered my self-esteem. I needed my Star Qualities back. TLC (Top 20’s Think, Learn and Communicate Class) did it. I found my true self.” – Jimmy

“Top 20 Parents awakened the wisdom within us as parents. We felt a burden of things we “should” do lift off our shoulders. Thanks to Top 20 Parents (the book is in our store now), we have the tools to parent how we have always wanted. Our kids are having fun with it and we are raising resilient, realistic, emotionally stable children.” – Amy and Stephen Gould

“The two days I spent in the Top 20 training had both a professional and personal impact on me. I have learned so many strategies pertaining to effective communication, creating a positive climate, building trust, and so much more. These new tools are making me a better educator, parent, and significant other. Most importantly, I learned how to help the teachers and students I serve be more successful. The Top 20 training has something for everyone, whether you are a teacher, coach, parent, professional in the workplace, or spouse.” – Dr. Tanya Rasmussen, Curriculum & Staff Development Director, Harrisburg School District, Harrisburg, SD
