Cultivating Certainty in Uncertainty Unveiling the Blueprint for Business Success!
00:04Elevate your life. Elevate your business. Welcome to the elevated results podcast.We're living in a completely uncertain world right now. There's a lot of uncertainty around us. The way that the world is operating as we know it has started to change.Things have really, really changed when you look at the business forefront and technology in our personal lives. It's evolving at a rapid pace.The way that we operate in every aspect of our life is changing. It's a very important. It's a very important. It's aevolving. And when we look at the uncertainty around us, it can be a little bit scary sometimes. There's a lotof uncertainty with all these changes in the way the world operates as we know it. The way we operateour businesses, it's changing too. It's a little bit scary to navigate things that are new anduncertain. But if we're uncertain in an uncertain situation, our mindset will suffer. That means we will
01:01suffer. That means that as a human being, we will suffer if we're uncertain in an uncertain situation.but if we can cultivate certainty within an uncertain situation, our mindset can thrive.No matter what's going on around us, we can't control the external world, but we can controlwhat we focus on.We can control our mindset.We can control the certainty within ourselves.And so when we look at all the things that are occurring around us, they're out of our control.A couple weeks ago, there was the solar eclipse, and I know that the energy felt really heavy
01:36for some while others were excited. They wanted to go watch it. They cultivated as a community to watch thisamazing event, the solar eclipse, which signified light within darkness. And that's a reminder that ineverything we do in life, where there's light, there's darkness, where there's the sun, there's the moon.Everything comes out in its season within balance. We're also like that. But it's also a reminderthat everything is energy. We're all energy. Energy is in everything that we do in the world,in the universe, it's in our businesses. And if we're out of alignment energetically,everything is a lot harder where when we step into alignment energetically, we canallow things to flow naturally. So as we look at the shifts around us through these changes,
02:22we need to remember that if we are a business owner, that we're a part of our business.So how are we taking care of our energy? How are we stepping into energetic alignmentand really being open to everything that's available to us.Now, Victor Frankel was a Holocaust survivor.He was an inspiring, amazing man who somehow survived some of the worst living conditions.Some horrible, horrible things happened to him.But he says a quote, that you can strip a man of everything, but his mind.So when this world is falling apart or there's a number,
03:02certainty around you, remember that you can't control everything around you, but you can controlwhat you focus on. You can control your mindset. And that's what Victor Frankel was saying. That's how hesurvived some of the most uncertain, horrible experiences was he focused on how can he cultivate certaintywithin himself. And that's our call to action right now. We cannot control what's happening around us.We cannot control that technology is evolving and it's changing the way we do things. We can't controleverything. It's out of our control. But what we can control is what we focus on. What we can controlis what our mindset is. And so if we are uncertain in an uncertain situation, we will suffer. Our mindset willsuffer. But if we are certain in an uncertain situation, we can still thrive. We can still grow.
03:54And so when we look at what we can do, when you focus on what you can accomplish, you focus oncultivating certainty within yourself and what you can control, you're going to start to build upthat confidence within yourself. Versus when you're focusing on what you can't control and how everythingaround you is falling apart, you're going to start to focus on being uncertain in an uncertainsituation and you're going to suffer. Your mindset will suffer. And we're starting to see that manifestin the world as we know it in businesses as well, right? So it's a reminder. You don't have to know everything.You do not have to be certain all the time, but you need to cultivate certainty within yourself.And so when I look at right now, my daughter's learning how to walk.
04:37She's nine months old and she's learning how to walk.And it's honestly so exciting and it's inspiring to watch her because she falls.She takes a step and she realizes I need to learn how to balance.She's fallen a few times.But now she can stand up in balance and she's taken several steps.She progresses every day because she keeps trying.She doesn't just stop when she's.she falls, she doesn't just say, oh, I'm never going to walk, I'm going to give up. No, she keeps going. She takes
05:03one step at a time. She builds confidence within herself. And one day she'll run. And I look at that and Ithink we were all like that. We all didn't know what we were doing. We didn't know how to walk at one point,but here we are now. You didn't give up on yourself then. Why would you give up on yourself now?If there's something that you want to accomplish and you don't know how to do it and you're notconfident in your abilities to do it, start cultivating certainty within yourself.You don't have to know every single step moving forward, but you need to know and be confidentwithin your own abilities that you're certain that you will figure it out, that you're certainyou will do it. You'll figure out a way. And when you start to really build certainty within
05:42yourself, that's when the confidence starts. So when I start in real estate, I wasn't 100% certainof every single step I was supposed to take. I didn't know everything. I was new, right? Whenever wewant to accomplish a goal, whenever we want to do something new, we're not going to be a pro at itright away. We have to learn. We have to fall. We have to progress forward. There's no such thing as failure.It's feedback. We need to learn from it. What can I do different? What can I do better? How can Ibe more certain in my actions? But you have to cultivate that certainty within yourself.And there's tools and strategies that you can utilize that are going to help you to cultivate thatcertainty and confidence within yourself. Now, when I look at as a business owner,
06:24in real estate or in any other business, if you walked in and you're in an interview.So I think about real estate because I am a realtor.If I walked in to do a listing presentation and I wasn't confident or certain within myselfand somebody else walked in, another agent walked in and they were completely certainand confident in their abilities, who do you think the owner's going to choose?Who do you think the client's going to choose to work with?Whoever is confident and certain.Because whoever shows the most confidence, whoever cultivating,
06:54it's the most certainty will always influence the other. So you might not know every answer,but you will know because you're certain within yourself that you're confident that you're goingto be able to accomplish it. You're going to be able to do it. So this is a reminder that you cancultivate that certainty and that confidence within yourself and you can do whatever you set your mindto if you believe it, if you're certain. And if you can learn how to cultivate the certaintywithin yourself, when problems start to arise or challenges and obstacles start to come in yourpath because let's face it. That's life. That's business. It's going to happen. You know how to navigatebecause you're certain. You cultivate the certainty within yourself. You know what? Maybe I don't know what I'm
07:35going to do right now, but I'm certain I'm going to get through it. I'm certain and believe in myself and in ahigher power that I'm going to figure it out that it's going to be okay. And the answer will always follow ifyou're confident and certain. So it's grounding. When I think about it is a spiritual way as well.it's about being grounded. It's about feeling your feet on the earth, feeling certain, feeling stable,knowing that you're rooted, knowing that when the world blows a wind of uncertainty at you,you're rooted down like a tree and you're not going to topple over. That you're grounded,you're strong, you're stable, you're certain. And once you can really start to root down and ground downand feel your power, you're going to start to navigate the way forward. And so this is a call to action for
08:19everyone because if one of us steps into our power and we step into our certainty, we can startto cultivate certainty around us and that will inspire others to start to feel more certainty.Now, being an agent, and I'm a coach as well, so I see psychology and it really interests me.To me, it always interested me how in the real estate market, when it's a boom, everyone wants tobuy. Every single person wants to capitalize on the market because it's hot, it's booming,where when it starts to slow down and prices decrease and there's more,options as buyers, when it's actually a more logical time to buy, there's more opportunity,people all step back because they're afraid. They're uncertain. What's coming? I'm uncertain. I don't
09:00know what the market's going to do moving forward. I don't know how the world's going to be.So instead of taking an opportunity and seeing it as an opportunity, I'm going to retract.And then when it booms again and everybody else is buying, then I'm going to do the same thing.It's psychology. People moving crowds. People like to do the same thing because why? We're allenergy. We feel the energy, we feel that the market's picking up. We feel that it's busier. The economy'sdoing great. We feel the energy. We want to hop on it. But as soon as we feel the energy of everyone elsearound us, and we feel that everybody's scared, they're fearful of what's going on in the world aroundis the economy's going to crash. There's all the doom and gloom from the news, and that's what you're
09:40focusing on. You're surrounding yourself in that energy. And then your decisions are based on energy.so why wouldn't you learn how to cultivate certainty within yourself to feel the energy withinyourself that when there is uncertainty in the world around you or there's uncertainty in yourbusiness that you are what's certain you're the energy of certainty because when you go in a roomyou walk in a place people feel your energy so if you're certain you're going to inspire othersto cultivate the certainty within themselves and that is how together we are a catalyst formaking a difference in the world around us and a difference in our business.Because if we're certain, we're energy.
10:23That energy then is a catalyst ripple effect that spreads to everyone and everything around you.So that is what your responsibility is.Your responsibility is not to try to move mountains.Your responsibility is not to try to figure out every single way to fix the externalworld because we're never going to be able to do it.But you can focus on being certain yourself, bringing that into your business,bringing the certainty into your business when you walk around, your clients feel your certainty,even the people you work with, the people in your home, you can influence them with your certainty.
10:55And that's all energy. So it's a reminder that you are in control. You are in control of the certaintythat flows through your body, that energetically ignites you. You are in control of that.And so it's a reminder for me too. When we're talking about this, it's such a reminder because it's so easy.to fall out of energetic alignment. It's so easy to retract. It's so easy when business isslow and the economy is slow and the news is all doom and gloom and the world's falling andcrumbling around us. It's easy to be afraid. It's easy to retract. It's easy to do what everyoneelse does. It's easy to follow that energy. It's easier. But you need to trust your energybecause if you want to see a difference in the world and you want to see a difference in your business
11:45and you want to see a difference in your own life and the loved ones, everyone that surrounds you,you need to tap into that energy. And that is our responsibility is cultivating the certaintyand the energy within us that's going to ignite and propel us forward because when we step into ourpower and we start accomplishing our own goals and we start growing our business and we start showingup, we inspire everyone else around us. And that is the power.of when we say co-elevating, it's energy, right? Everything is energy. And it's a reminder to methat when I'm doing things like this, when I'm in alignment and I know that I'm in a flow state,I like to label it as a flow state, or I'm surrounding myself with people that I have good
12:28conversations with that connect with business or spirituality or energy, or they have great energy,I gravitate towards them. And I start to feel my own energy elevate. I start to feel myselfstep into that energy.And then it ignites that within me so that when I walk out, even if I go for a walkoutside, or if I go meet a client, or I go anywhere else, that energy follows and is with meand it starts to spread everywhere that I go.And so it's a reminder that you need to put yourself in those situations where you're goingto step into that energy.
13:02And if you don't have that energy right now, start to surround yourself with people, places,and things that ignite that energy within you.And you don't always have to keep running to find it.It can come through a ritual.It can come through something you like doing that's going to energize you.It can come from listening to a podcast or doing a course or listening to your favorite songor talking to somebody on the phone that really inspires you or just somebody that reallyignites that purpose, that passion within yourself.
13:33Now, when we really start to focus on harnessing that.to our everyday life.It can come through any form.Anything you focus on, step into that energy.And so that's why they say, and you probably say this in every single business, even inlife, that person has charisma.I love being around that person.They have great energy.
13:57They have great energy.We all are energy.We all have that within us.We just need to elevate our own energy, ignite our own energy, and stay.step into it. And so the theme of this call clearly has been about energy and certainty because theyare connected. They're both within one. If you're certain, you're in the certainty energy. If you'reuncertain, you're in an uncertain energy. So start doing things that make you feel certain. Start doingthings that are going to bring that certainty and that confidence within you out. So I personally know
14:31that if I wake up in the morning, I do my morning rituals, I work out first thing in the morning,I have way more energy. I'm more confident in every single thing that I do.Versus if I sleep in, I wake up grumpy, which naturally I do. I don't do anything about it.And I just start to be a zombie my whole day. I focus on my phone. I focus on everyone else.Then I get grumpier. Well, then I'm in an uncertain energy because I don't know what I'm going to dotoday. What's going to come up? There's uncertainty. Because I have not stepped into certainty.I have not stepped into my energy of being certain. I have not cultivated.the certainty within me. So it starts all with one thing, cultivating certainty. So a few different
15:14tools and strategies you can utilize to cultivate certainty. One, create a morning ritual. What do youdo first thing when you wake up? What are your rituals? Because how we start our day sets the tonefor our entire day. So what do you do first thing in the morning? What makes you feel confident? That'swhere Tony talks about incantations, feeling them through your body, affirmations, saying yourreally feeling it, being confident, stepping into it. Now, if you've never felt confident in your life,then think about what would a competent person do? Who in your life is competent? Maybe it's a mentor,maybe it's somebody on Instagram or someone you know. What do they do when they're competent?How does confidence look to you? How does it feel to you? You don't have to know it personally,
15:57but someone else has it. Figure out what they do and start to bring it into your own life.that's why Tony always says the version of him, he wasn't born that way. He created it.I did the same thing. I figured out, okay, what does a confident agent do? What does a confident businesswoman do?What does a confident person with podcasts do? How do I bring that confidence? What does it look like for me?And then you start to bring it into your own body, bring it into your own life. Step into the confidence.Maybe it's your shoulders back. Maybe you're standing up tall. Maybe you're grounding down.You know that there's a meditation that you need to do to ground down into the universe.Something you need to do to feel certain.
16:37Figure that out.What is that ritual?What brings you certainty?That's what it starts with.Then go for a walk.Go work out.Do something that's going to make you feel confident because when your body feels good,you're going to elevate, you're going to have the confidence within yourself.
16:54So start looking at the little everyday things that you do.Because again, everything is energy.but what are the things that you do every single day? Where's your energy dropping? Where does your energyignite? Where do you notice that you feel completely confident? What makes you feel confident?And start doing more of that because it's a muscle. The more you do it, the more you're going totrust in your own abilities, the more confident you're going to be in yourself, the more certainyou're going to be. So that when the world around you is crumbling, business is falling apart,there's problems being thrown at you, you are completely certain.
17:31And you're going to be able to navigate a lot better when you're certain.Because if you're uncertain, you start to go through fight or flight.And when you're in fight or flight, you can't think straight.Your body's out of alignment.You feel that energy like you're being tossed around.You can't think straight.How are you going to make a business decision in that moment?How are you going to know exactly what to do if you're in fight or flight?
17:55You're not.you're going to get tossed around. So focus. That's why I always say take a deep breath.Focus. Step into your confidence, step into your certainty. And it's not going to come natural rightaway, just like when a baby learns to walk. You're not going to know how to do it right away,but it comes with practice. It's what you choose to do over and over and over again.Now, I've done it so many times. You can step into it. Okay, I feel this way. I know I need to dothis certain step, this certain ritual to bring that confidence within me out. So these are what youcan start to do with start small. It's the decision to do it every day. It's the decision when you notice
18:35I feel really uncertain right now. Okay, why do you feel uncertain? Where is that uncertainty coming from?Now, what would it feel like to feel certain? What can you control? Stop focusing on what you can't control.focus on what you can control. Take one step into doing something that you can control,which could be taking a deep breath, grounding down, doing your ritual, maybe going throughyour incantations or your affirmations, saying you're confident, physically feeling it in your body.That's what an incantation is, if you don't know. It's taking an affirmation, so it could be,I'm strong and confident, and standing up, feeling it, finding a power pose, they say a power pose,where you feel powerful. So Tony always goes to say yes,
19:20That could be it. You could be standing up tall, rooted down, grounded, but where you feel reallystrong and powerful. Step into that movement. Feel it in your body and become certain. Now, you'll startto do that over and over again. And before you know it, you will step into your certainty and you willcultivate the certainty within yourself that's needed through everything that you do in your lifeand business. And again, when you start doing that, you inspire everyone else around you to be certain.you start bringing the certainty with you.And before you know what, the world will start to feel more comfortable.The world will start to feel more certain.
19:57Things will start to look more positive because if we step into that energy as a collective,it spreads.If everybody feels that way, they're going to feel, you know what?There's a little bit of certainty.I see the light at the end of this tunnel.So if you're wondering what you can do in the world right now,what you can do in your business to make things better,what you can do in your life to make things better, cultivate the certainty within yourself.
20:22Because then, with all this uncertainty going on around in our lives and in our businesses,we are certainty. And again, with that energy, you're going to start to see things,start to come to fruition, your dreams, your goals, you're going to be able to accomplishthings in your business. You're going to be able to help other people because you're certain.So thank you for joining me today.
