After enduring challenges that many can barely imagine and years of frustration as he relentlessly pursued his dream of becoming a professional musician, only to run into one obstacle after another, Carl Contino discovered several fundamental principles that dramatically changed his life and produced a remarkable transformation. Contino’s company, Untapped Genius, is the cornerstone of his life’s mission – helping passion-driven creatives, entrepreneurs, and others who are seeking the knowledge that will enable them to overcome the obstacles in their own lives so they can impact the world and thrive, doing what they love to the fullest.
Carl Contino began creating his “Life as a Wave” principles in 1997 as he struggled with several cognitive issues (ADD, dyslexia, stammering, memory loss) after consulting numerous doctors, reading over 300 books on health, nutrition, and personal growth, and relying on a daily ritual of Nootropics (brain supplements), all to no avail. As he sought to pursue his dream of becoming a professional musician, Contino unexpectedly experienced “an ‘aha’ moment” that changed his life. He noticed that a “stutter,” much like the verbal stutter that dominated his childhood, showed up when he was playing music – jazz guitar and percussion. He found that no matter how much he practiced (often 10-12 hours a day), his musical proficiency was actually getting worse, not better, and none of the 40 music teachers he worked with over the years could offer a solution to this frustrating challenge.
Contino has found that the “Life as a Wave” principles have not only helped him free his mind of the cognitive issues which persisted for so many years but also opened the doors to what he calls “untapped genius,” abilities found in the mind and body that most individuals don’t even know they possess, gifts and talents that can transform the quality of life and what is possible for each of us.
Today, Untapped Genius has a big and bold mission at play, to “touch a billion lives, helping every individual shine their light, and to express their talent and unique gifts to the fullest” so that everyone can have a positive impact on the world at this pivotal time in human history.
