[Inaudible] The best teacher's exemplification, I would plan.
Speaker:I'd come to Master Planning, or I'd start planning out your life,
Speaker:and your teenager will watch that. You know,
Speaker:if I do my plans, my life demonstrates it.
Speaker:When they see you getting results in what the hell you're doing to get the
Speaker:results, they're going to be more likely to do it. As Einstein said,
Speaker:the best teacher's exemplification. If you go out and exemplify it,
Speaker:you're going to get the most done.
Speaker:[Inaudible] Whatever you're doing,
Speaker:if you're in a job that you're got your primary source of income,
Speaker:and you have another career that you're attempting to get launched, my advice,
Speaker:I mean,
Speaker:if you have some liquid capital and you've got enough reserve to go and start
Speaker:the business, then maybe that's one path, you just go out and do it.
Speaker:But if you don't, my advice is to do a number of things. One,
Speaker:take a list of everything that you're doing right now in your business,
Speaker:current business, make a list of them, and then ask;
Speaker:how is doing this right now, helping me in my future career?
Speaker:And once you answer that, and don't answer one answer,
Speaker:answer 10 to 20 or more answers per job responsibility.
Speaker:How's it helped me get there?
Speaker:If you can see that what you're doing is on the way, not in the way,
Speaker:your energy will go into that more effectively,
Speaker:you'll be more likely to move closer to this objective.
Speaker:And then what you want to do is you want to master plan out the new objectives
Speaker:so you know what you're going to do and make sure it serves somebody and earns
Speaker:the income. A lot of people go out of fantasy,
Speaker:don't think of the way it's going to serve people, that's not marketed properly.
Speaker:I had a lovely gentleman last night,
Speaker:a really lovely gentleman that I met with in Sydney,
Speaker:who is a very bright gentleman.
Speaker:And he wanted to go out and be involved in teaching,
Speaker:but he didn't package what he had as sufficient as he could.
Speaker:I mean, without a doubt, just talking to him, he was extremely bright.
Speaker:You could see he was dedicated to learning. He had great knowledge.
Speaker:There's no doubt in my mind, he could help people,
Speaker:but he hadn't packaged it in a way that met the needs of people.
Speaker:And so he ended up going back to his comfort zone,
Speaker:cause it was making money and he about gave up on his goal because you didn't
Speaker:plan it. That's why planning is so important.
Speaker:And but if he planned it out and thought through,
Speaker:and I gave him five or six questions in a few minutes that we chatted
Speaker:that help him start to think a little differently. And he goes,
Speaker:I know what to do. He saw it. And you could see him getting this vision back,
Speaker:because he didn't plan and so his vision was sitting there,
Speaker:it was a great possible vision.
Speaker:He didn't plan it out and he didn't break it down into small bites and he didn't
Speaker:meet the needs of people the way he packaged it. And therefore he was stuck.
Speaker:So if you're doing something, I assure you, it's on the way,
Speaker:it's not in the way,
Speaker:but you need to plan out what you're doing and make sure it's clear and then
Speaker:link what you're doing now to get you there.
Speaker:And once this new thing is making you the money or equal money or more money,
Speaker:you'll let go of the other one and say thank you.
Speaker:If you have a goal,
Speaker:if I have a goal to earn a certain amount of money this year,
Speaker:and let's say it's a half a million dollars, something like that,
Speaker:or million dollars, or even a hundred thousand or 50,000,
Speaker:doesn't matter how much, if I don't see that at the beginning of the month,
Speaker:at the end of the month, that I'm 4,000 to $5,000 of income,
Speaker:then my metrics are showing that I'm not on track yet.
Speaker:If I show that I had three, and then the next month I see four,
Speaker:the next month I see five, the next month I see six,
Speaker:at the end of the year I'm on track. So evidence is basically,
Speaker:metricking what you're doing and making sure you're setting out and getting what
Speaker:you've set out to do.
Speaker:If I set out to reach so many people on webinars and podcasts and live
Speaker:TV and radio and all those things,
Speaker:if I don't see any evidence that I'm not metricking those,
Speaker:I'm not going to know what I'm doing. So that's what evidence is.
Speaker:So you're basically measuring what you're getting done.
Speaker:Anytime you have negative self-talk,
Speaker:I guarantee you the thing you're pursuing isn't your highest value,
Speaker:it's a fantasy.
Speaker:Negative self-talk is a feedback to you to let you know you're pursuing
Speaker:something that's not really important. Guarantee it.
Speaker:You're trying to be somebody you're not. You know,
Speaker:I had a lady that was having negative self-talk. She says, 'You know,
Speaker:I keep sabotaging my business.
Speaker:I keep sabotaging my business.' Her highest value was raising family.
Speaker:Her highest value was her children. And her children were still at a young age.
Speaker:And she had this fantasy that she was going to start this business,
Speaker:online business and do this website and do this stuff.
Speaker:And no matter what,
Speaker:her children were taking up all the time and things were coming up and she'd
Speaker:have to go and take care of her children and everything else. I said, 'Ma'am,
Speaker:your highest value is your children. You're dedicated
Speaker:And you're fantasizing about doing a business,
Speaker:but there's no evidence of that being accomplished. You're, this is not real.
Speaker:So either we need to go and find out how the business is going to help you with
Speaker:your children and link it to the children,
Speaker:and how is spending time with the children gonna help your business and make
Speaker:those links,
Speaker:because anytime two values are close together they enhance each other. Or,
Speaker:shift values and stack up enough benefits of how stacking up the benefits of
Speaker:building a business right now is so high that it takes precedence over your
Speaker:children, or not over them, but maybe alongside them.
Speaker:But if not, you're not going to do it'.
Speaker:And she was beating herself up and wondering why she was sabotaging and not
Speaker:doing it, because it really wasn't highest. It was a fantasy.
Speaker:It's like people saying, 'I want to be financially dependent.' 1%, make it,
Speaker:99% don't. But a hundred percent put their hands up when I say,
Speaker:how many want to be financial independent.
Speaker:Most people don't know what their values are.
Speaker:That's why I want you to go online and do the Value Determination process on the
Speaker:website. Get clear about that.
Speaker:Don't waste your time on goals that aren't aligned with your values.
Speaker:So I'm going to confront passion. Passion, go look up right now,
Speaker:whoever's online right now. Go up to your little cell phone.
Speaker:Go look up the word: Passion. Look up etymology,
Speaker:E T Y M O L O G Y Passion -
Speaker:etymology, and look up what the definition means, and it'll blow your mind.
Speaker:Most personal development junkies gurus out there are talking about,
Speaker:find your passion, get passionate, get your passion, dah, dah, dah.
Speaker:I'm the only one that's probably going to tell you; it's not about passion.
Speaker:Passion means to suffer and compassion means to suffer with somebody,
Speaker:by its etymology. So if you want to go suffering, go get passionate.
Speaker:Animals have passion. The animal passions are greed,
Speaker:lust, sloth, immediate gratification, you know,
Speaker:addiction. These are the passions.
Speaker:An inspired mission is different than a passion.
Speaker:I'm going to teach you in all my programs, I'm about inspired missions,
Speaker:not passions. If you want to go and do passion with other people, that's fine.
Speaker:But passions are transient. They're impulse based. They're instinct avoiding.
Speaker:They're basically transient. They go up, you get a high and you go down.
Speaker:Passions are what usually cause people to lose money in the stock market.
Speaker:They're emotional exuberances. So I know you hear something different than that,
Speaker:but I'm going to lay it straight, go look it up. Read, do your homework,
Speaker:quit just following somebody's statement without thinking it through and
Speaker:learning, and realize that an inspired mission is different than a passion.
Speaker:And a passion is not where it's at. I'm not passionate.
Speaker:I'm an inspired man on a mission. That's a different energy.
Speaker:That's something that you'll endure pain and pleasure in.
Speaker:A passion is avoiding pain,
Speaker:seeking pleasure and setting up a manic episode and a fantasy episode and
Speaker:rising up with a fantasy and then crashing, because you're unprepared
Speaker:and you're basically not preparing things in advance.
Speaker:So I'm not promoting a passion in my seminars.
Speaker:I personally define it and let them understand the distinctions.
Speaker:So if you want an inspired life,
Speaker:you're not going to do it pursuing temporary emotional passions.
Speaker:You're going to do it by being inspired by something that's a spontaneous
Speaker:calling from within,
Speaker:by living congruently with your highest values and setting real goals in real
Speaker:time with real strategies that have real meaning. If you do,
Speaker:you're going to have an inspired life and then people are going to go,
Speaker:'Oh wow, you're inspired.
Speaker:It's inspiring being around you.' So I'm just, I blew that one for you. I don't,
Speaker:I may as well just hit you.
Speaker:[Inaudible] You have a value on something else, relationships, family,
Speaker:serving people, social causes or whatever.
Speaker:If you don't have a value on wealth building, not going to happen.
Speaker:I might as well just hit you with reality.
Speaker:My experience with the people that are wealthy and have financial independence,
Speaker:have it in the top three or four values. It's not there.
Speaker:I didn't have, up until 30, no, up until 28,
Speaker:I didn't have a value on wealth-building.
Speaker:I had a value on saving money to buy things, buy clothes, buy a car,
Speaker:buy this, buy a trip, buy equipment.
Speaker:I didn't have any value on wealth building until age 28.
Speaker:And 28 I got a wake up call.
Speaker:I got 10 questions that woke me up about what's really
Speaker:meaningful,
Speaker:which is some of the same 10 questions I do in Master Planning about finances.
Speaker:That shifted me and made value of wealth building go up on my values.
Speaker:So if you want to go and do that, you want to go and,
Speaker:I have The 6 Steps to Wealth or come to Master Planning itself and I'll make you
Speaker:do it.
Speaker:You're going to actually do the exercise in Master Planning to raise it up and
Speaker:learn how to raise things up on your values.
Speaker:Because money circulates through the economy,
Speaker:from those who value it least to those who value it most.
Speaker:If you don't have a value on wealth building, it isn't going to happen.
Speaker:You're going to,
Speaker:if you have a higher value on buying groceries and
Speaker:cinema and buying shoes and clothes and buying seminars and buying
Speaker:this and buying that or whatever it is, whatever's highest on your value,
Speaker:if it's not linked to wealth building, wealth building is not going to happen.
Speaker:And you're going to keep spending money on that.
Speaker:I had a lady that was in Dallas and she could not get ahead financially,
Speaker:no matter what she did, she was attending seminars but I explained to her,
Speaker:unless you have a value on wealth building, it's not going to happen. 'Well,
Speaker:I do a lot of stuff. I go work really hard,
Speaker:but always something comes up.' I say,
Speaker:'Well those things that keep coming up that it's blow your money are things
Speaker:higher on your value than saving.
Speaker:When you really have a value on saving and investing money,
Speaker:you don't let secondary things interfere with it.' And so we had to shift your
Speaker:values. We did it in Master Planning. We also did in Breakthrough.
Speaker:And in the process of doing it, she finally got somewhere.
Speaker:Now she wasn't saving a lot when she started,
Speaker:but it's not how much it's the habit of doing it.
Speaker:And she increased it as I instructed. In Master Planning
Speaker:you actually map out what you're going to save, how you're going to save it,
Speaker:what you're going to do, what's your strategies on doing it,
Speaker:so you break away the fantasies and you get somewhere.
Speaker:And the people that I know, I was doing the Master Planning in Sydney,
Speaker:Australia three years ago. Yeah. Three years ago,
Speaker:pardon me, it'll be four years now coming this February, and
Speaker:I asked the group, there was about 120 people attending.
Speaker:And I asked how many of you right now have started your
Speaker:financial plan from either Master Planning or for the Prophecy program
Speaker:thing, I was blown away. I was expecting about 40% or something like that.
Speaker:87% of the people had initiated it.
Speaker:Partly from Master Planning that they previously done or Prophecy program.
Speaker:Unbelievable. I was blown away,
Speaker:87% we're on track with a consistent increasing of savings and investments.
Speaker:So it can be done, but you just have to have a high value,
Speaker:have to shift the values to get there.
Speaker:[Inaudible] In actuality, nothing is missing.
Speaker:I explain that in the Breakthrough Experience, nothing's missing,
Speaker:but to say that you're not here to grow, is ludicrous.
Speaker:In fact I had this guru that I confronted on that one time,
Speaker:he was an Indian guru and he says, 'I don't pursue anything.
Speaker:Everything is abundant and everything else.' Then I said, 'Well, yeah,
Speaker:but you just got through telling me, you need to go to the bathroom.'
Speaker:'Where's the bathroom?'I said, 'Well,
Speaker:that's a goal because you now have a body need to go to the bathroom and you
Speaker:also want some food, that's a goal. So you have a goal.
Speaker:Everybody has a goal.
Speaker:You would prefer to have more knowledge.' The guru was studying every day,
Speaker:he preferred to study and meditate and learn. I say,
Speaker:'So you have no more goals to meditate?' 'No,
Speaker:I have goals to meditate.' 'You have no more goals to learn more knowledge and
Speaker:become more enlightened?' And he goes, 'Oh yes.' I said, 'Well,
Speaker:don't lie to yourself that you have no goals.
Speaker:You're not going to sit there and be a goaless, you know,
Speaker:as long as you're green you're growing, as soon as you ripen and you rot,
Speaker:if you think you're done and you've, you know everything, I mean,
Speaker:think about that.
Speaker:I've never met any human being that isn't designed to expand their awareness and
Speaker:their influence in life on a daily basis. You know, I mean,
Speaker:that's insane. They want to, they want to expand.
Speaker:They want to open up. Now you can do that by perception, decision,
Speaker:or action.
Speaker:You can expand your perceptions and realize you already have things you didn't
Speaker:know you had, but that's still a goal, to become aware,
Speaker:a goal to influence, a goal to be more present. I mean,
Speaker:the second you're present, you're going to get distracted by events.
Speaker:Cause you're going to go pee or you're going to go and have to talk to somebody
Speaker:or you're going to have to go eat.
Speaker:And then you're going to be out of presence sometimes
Speaker:goal to be present again.
Speaker:So I think you've got to get real about what spirituality is.
Speaker:I never like to put spirituality in a box.
Speaker:I think spirituality is everything.
Speaker:Everything that a person does is part of spirituality, as far as I'm concerned,
Speaker:even goals.
Speaker:[Inaudible] I assure you, you have a high value.
Speaker:It's just you haven't taken the time to identify which it is.
Speaker:And that's why I say go online and do the Value Determination process or come to
Speaker:the Master Planning. And let's go through it methodically together.
Speaker:Because there's no such thing as a person that doesn't have a highest value.
Speaker:I've been doing this a long time, 40 years on goals and values easily.
Speaker:I assure you that everybody has it.
Speaker:So you have it. You have goals and you have things that are high in value.
Speaker:Im not a big guy on you know, going, 'Oh my God, I'm a success'.
Speaker:I don't think of myself as a success. I think of myself as a man on a mission,
Speaker:inspired mission. But I don't sit there and go, Oh my god I accomplished this.
Speaker:And I go, Woo-hoo and I go, you know, I go and rah-rah, I'm not a rah-rah guy.
Speaker:I'm grateful for the goal. I document it.
Speaker:I have the largest collection of gratitudes of anybody I've ever met.
Speaker:I document it every single day,
Speaker:I've actually typed in that I had the opportunity to do this presentation
Speaker:tonight. I just typed it in before I started it, the opportunity to do that,
Speaker:to reach thousands of people, that's already on my goal, on my gratitude list.
Speaker:I'm a firm believer in doing a gratitude list, document it,
Speaker:but sitting there and going, 'Wow. Wow, wow.
Speaker:And hi and Oh man and celebrate and go have a drink and stuff like that to me is
Speaker:unnecessary. I don't, I'm not interested in that.
Speaker:I am grateful for the opportunity to do it.
Speaker:And I get onto the next one because it's inspiring to achieve.
Speaker:Every weekend in the Breakthrough Experience,
Speaker:when I do the Breakthrough Experience, I watch people's lives change,
Speaker:I watch hearts open,
Speaker:I watch people break through stuff and I get letters from people and documenting
Speaker:that and putting in my gratitude journal every day, that's a metric,
Speaker:that's an inspiration and that's a celebration with a
Speaker:tear in the eye for a moment.
Speaker:Then I go out and it inspires me to go do more work.
Speaker:Well, first, identify what the value is and then ask yourself, okay,
Speaker:what is it I absolutely love to do? And how do I get handsomely paid to do it?
Speaker:And how do I structure it? In Master Planning,
Speaker:in one Master Plannig we started 13 companies and
Speaker:it started from just that, we did looked at what the values are,
Speaker:started from there and worked out,
Speaker:and looked at what they love doing and what they spontaneously do.
Speaker:And I just had one of those this weekend at the Breakthrough Experience in
Speaker:Melbourne, it just exactly that happened, she goes, 'Oh,
Speaker:this is what I love doing. This is my value.
Speaker:But how could I ever make a living doing it?' In five minutes of a
Speaker:conversation she saw it. And she just sat there and she got tears in her eyes,
Speaker:she gave me a big hug and she goes, 'I can't believe I've never seen this.
Speaker:This is so obvious.
Speaker:I know I can do this.' We just sat down and we did a little bitty master plan
Speaker:kind of thing, and boom, she got it.
Speaker:And then she saw how she could go and make more money than she's making right
Speaker:now, doing what she's doing.
Speaker:When you're doing something you're inspired by it and you package it in a way
Speaker:that serves people, there's no lack of income. And
Speaker:I'm a firm believer in that, I love helping people do that.
Speaker:One of my favorite parts of Master Planning is sitting
Speaker:they're all working and planning out their lives and doing that,
Speaker:I interject every once in a while, gems and insights,
Speaker:but I'm up in the front and the people are coming up and we're working
Speaker:individually like a private consulting, you know,
Speaker:I normally charge like 3000 an hour for this, but during Master Planning,
Speaker:they come up and they get three days of master planning, a private consulting,
Speaker:and we're going through and we're solving what they think is obstacles.
Speaker:And we're getting them clear on their plan and then helping them see how they
Speaker:can do it.
Speaker:And amazing stuff gets done and they go back and then they have an inspiration
Speaker:and sometimes they just typing and when the class is over, they're still typing.
Speaker:Cause they see how they can do it. And it's quite, it's quite inspiring.
Speaker:Well, when you're hiring somebody,
Speaker:you want somebody that's inspired by the job that you're going to delegate.
Speaker:So be clear about the job description.
Speaker:And then you want to have the best you can find for that person.
Speaker:You want to hire somebody that's greater at knowledge about it than you are so
Speaker:you can release it and they're engaged in it,
Speaker:inspired and it's highest on their values and they can see how that job is going
Speaker:to help them get what they want,
Speaker:so you can release it and not have to micromanage it and push them uphill and
Speaker:get on with doing what you love doing. But if you're not ready to hire that,
Speaker:do it in increments. If you think,
Speaker:if you believe that the advantage of going and hiring that right now,
Speaker:now will catalyze your company to go forward, take the risk.
Speaker:The worst thing can happen is at the end of a month or two or three months,
Speaker:the amount you paid to get that done if it doesn't come out the way you want it,
Speaker:you can refine it, you know, be organic.
Speaker:But that's where foreplanning is.
Speaker:If you're going out and you're actually doing the foreplan,
Speaker:you can actually see whether that's probably going to make the money or not.
Speaker:And if not, don't hire them. If you can't see how it is,
Speaker:if you can't give them action steps that you feel with certain as to generate
Speaker:more income than the cost, then you haven't done your plan properly yet.
Speaker:[Inaudible] Yeah, but the thing is is if you're getting a value out of Facebook,
Speaker:because your highest value is socializing, and then you say, well,
Speaker:I'm arbitrarily going to now just go read a book.
Speaker:If that's not your highest value, it's just going to,
Speaker:you're going to go back to Facebook.
Speaker:You need to truly set a goal and know what's really valuable to you.
Speaker:Now I don't do a lot of you know, social media every single day.
Speaker:I got an intense schedule. I got an agenda every single day.
Speaker:It keeps me busy every day.
Speaker:And so I do what is the highest priority things for me today.
Speaker:If social media is providing you more advantages than disadvantages,
Speaker:you're going to continue to do that.
Speaker:If reading a book is giving you more advantage than disadvantage,
Speaker:you'll do that.
Speaker:But if you don't see how the book's going to give you that result,
Speaker:you're not going to do it. You're gonna go back to social media.
Speaker:Be honest with yourself when you're setting goals,
Speaker:don't just arbitrarily pick one, 'Oh, I need to be doing this.
Speaker:I should be doing this.
Speaker:I ought to be doing this.' Because those aren't your goals.
Speaker:Look at what your life demonstrates.
Speaker:Anytime you want to raise a goal on your value list or a value on your value
Speaker:list, stack up the benefits because when the why is big enough,
Speaker:the how's take care of themselves.
Speaker:Write enough reasons why reading the book is going to help you in social media.
Speaker:Write enough reasons why the social,
Speaker:the reading of the book is going to help you in the areas that you know are
Speaker:important,
Speaker:but first do your values to find out what's important and then link reading to
Speaker:that. I have no problem reading. I love reading.
Speaker:Every minute I get extra I'm into reading a book or reading online.
