Starting point is 00:00:36 The link is in the description. You have time. You have the knowledge and the willpower and the discipline to get it done. Your heart, your life, your happiness is your responsibility and your responsibility alone. One day you're going to realize your life is yours. and there's a lot of people important to you that surround it, but ultimately it's yours. Then you must decide where you want to invest this life. Invest in something worthwhile.
Starting point is 00:01:19 You have to picture yourself there. Wherever it is, you've got to picture yourself there. All right, the next step is you've got to believe it. I'm here to tell you as a former professional athlete, all we talked about was the next level, and most people think the next level is a cliche. The next level is not a cliche. The next level is a lifestyle. The next level is a tangible place.
Starting point is 00:01:49 In three years, I doubled my MBA income in the marketplace. That's what I call the next level. See, I firmly believe that making money is easy. I've been in business 15 years. Every year, my salary and income gets bigger, stronger, and faster. Why? Because I understand the keys. to that proverbial next level.
Starting point is 00:02:13 You are in charge of your next level. You cannot expect to get promoted to that next level if you are mediocre. Some of you guys are doing a $5 million. You want to get to the next level. It's going to require you to become somebody different. If you're at $10 million, you want to get to $20 million. You can, but you must become someone different.
Starting point is 00:02:38 76% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. 64% of Americans that have businesses break even or lose money. Most people don't have any money and have accepted the fact that they don't have any money They don't have any leftover money. They're fearful of money constantly. They overspend, they don't know how to produce money, they definitely don't know how to multiply it. The land of the brave and the home of the free is not even close to the truth. It's just important for people to understand that complaining has no value.
Starting point is 00:03:10 And if you complain about not having enough money, work more. If you complain about not having work-life balance, spend more time on vacationing and your family. It's super simple. Let your actions dictate instead of sitting there and feeling like you're not in control. Poor people say I can't afford it, I can't do that, I don't have time.
Starting point is 00:03:30 It's an escape, you know what I mean? It's easy to say I can't afford it. Oh, I can't too tired. Oh, I can't go to the gym. You know, when you could go to the gym, but no, I can't. Truth is, I'm just too lazy to go to the gym. Money doesn't have value.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Right? And this is an important thing that most people don't immediately understand is that money itself doesn't have value. Money is a vector for transmitting value. It's how you express value. But the value isn't in the money. It's in the product or service you bought with it. And it's in the labor you gave in order to acquire it in the first place. That's where the value comes from. There's nothing intrinsically valuable in the money. You shouldn't put money in a house. You should put money in your brand. You should put money in the marketing. You should promote yourself, not put money in where you and the kids live.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Why is that a mistake? Because it's dead money. I mean, it's, it can't, a house can't make you money. A house does not make you money. The only reason people think a house makes some money is they're comparing it to if I rent, that costs me money. But, you know, if you need to go to a hospital, you don't buy the hospital. You rent a bit to get out of there as fast as you can. If you go on a trip, you go to America and you want to go to Disneyland, you don't buy the hotel.
Starting point is 00:04:44 you rent a room. And nobody thinks bad, poorly of that. They're like, yeah, I'm going to go there, use the place, and get out. That's what you should be doing with your living. Find a place where you can rent. Pay rent monthly. Don't own the house. And take all the money that you would have put in that house purchase, down payment.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Use all that money to improve your business and yourself so that you can get more money. So I see so many people here, like, I'm going to invest 300,000 pounds in a house to hopefully make $30,000. I'm a buy it for 300. Maybe I'll sell it for 600,000. I'll double my money. Fixed in one place, by the way, where no money comes to you. Money does not go to homes. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:24 And that's big a big thing on your career is moving locations because people who stay in the same place get too comfortable. If you study wealthy people, they're mercurial. They're moving. They're mobile. Warren Buffett and Bill Gates do not talk about the home they live in. They talk about the places they're going to. They go meet money.
Starting point is 00:05:39 They go meet wealth. They go meet connections. People are stunningly accepting of anything if they actually believe that's the purest form of it. I think I'd be less acceptable if I hedged. I really do. People accept you. People accept everything.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Just be you. Be you and clearly people react. When you're trying to fake something and you've got bad intent, well then that's visceral. and we hate. But I actually think we don't give love to the person that actually knows they have it and they're trying to fake it to conform,
Starting point is 00:06:24 hence why I won't adjust to this market all the way because I don't think I'll be respected. I know what my intent is, so why would I be scared? I want to build the biggest building in town. That's who I am. And you know how I want to do that? By building the biggest building in town. And a lot of people want to build the biggest building in town, and you know how they want to do it?
Starting point is 00:06:49 By tearing everybody else's building down. Poverty has passed on. It's taught in your families. And middle class is taught in families. And so the people right now who are sitting at home who are struggling financially or worried about money or unhappy, they may be making a lot of money, but unhappy with what they're doing, it was probably taught to you. Your super ego was taught
Starting point is 00:07:15 get a job, work hard, or you'll never be rich, or the rich or evil, or whatever. And until you change your mindset, money won't help you, right? And we see that with people that win the lottery, people that make more money, they still have the same problem.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Right. Because they have that poor man's soul. Right. If you're poor, you'll always be poor. That's really hard for people to understand. Yeah, the money will disappear that fast. Just like most pro athletes, you know, they make millions of dollars and what 65% are bankrupt five years later, it's because
Starting point is 00:07:46 they come from poor families. Now you tell them that they get very angry at you. It's not it's a rich fault. You know, you guys ripped me off and government ripped me off. But unfortunately what Mr. Lipton was saying, it's passed down genetically. That's the frightening thing. And it's interesting when you commit to something, little gifts just start. automatically showing up. It's a phenomenal thing. It's happened my whole career. When I fully commit, somebody will bring me something. And then look, then keep your eyes open. And by the way, the package may come wrapped in a package you weren't thinking about. Hard work. Or like a voice or like a person or, you know, maybe from a different direction than you thought or an offering where
Starting point is 00:08:34 you're like, you read something about this and that's not the thing. Like all throughout my career, it's coming weird kind of ways. If you ask for help and somebody shows up at the door, maybe invite them in. Regardless of what the packaging is or what you've heard about it or whatever, that's really been beneficial to me. How old are you? 44.
Starting point is 00:08:58 Think of, I'm 40. Do you know how young we feel? It's... When you were 26, did you ever think that this is what 44 felt like? No. You thought that that was finished. Yeah. How old are you?
Starting point is 00:09:13 20 years. Like when I was 25 years old, I thought a 40 year old was finished. I don't even feel like I'm starting. Right? Yeah, but when I was 26, I was in a rush. I understand. All of those guys and girls on the streets last night, when you say that to them, like that face kind of goes blank
Starting point is 00:09:32 because all the stuff they watch, MTV music music is this. It's all about the bling now and the this now and this now. You know, and MTV's, tamed, you start following people on Instagram and it's a disaster. They're all pushing like, you know, it's all about champagne and private planes and you can get it too and just sign up for my court, like, and everybody's falling for it. So I'm coming out and I, first of all, I want to be historically correct.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Nobody in a hundred years is gonna watch that video and say that I was full of crap. I like that, right? Number two, I want my legend to grow. I'm always fascinated by politicians and world figures. Like Winston Churchill, his brain continues to grow, right? I want that. When I'm dead, I want to be in the ground at peace knowing my legend's growing. Like, I want that. I want that in the business world. And so I'm giving real advice, and real advice looks like this.
Starting point is 00:10:21 When you're 19 and you can spend seven full years learning your craft, meeting people that are mentors, being patient, and you wake up and you're 26 years old, you have your entire life in front of you, and you've done great foundational work to go on and then be successful. You know, I have bad luck, too. I've had financial crashes. I've had people stab me in the back, but they're all good
Starting point is 00:10:50 because I grow from it. That's spirituality. You know, people who are afraid of making mistakes like they teach in school, they don't ever grow because spirituality is there's good and there's bad, there's right and there's wrong,
Starting point is 00:11:03 there's up and there's down. Most people only want to be right, they only want to be positive. Well, you can't have that. That's not reality. And the average person, the reason they're poor is they haven't failed. You know, they play it so safe. They haven't made any mistakes like they taught in school.
Starting point is 00:11:21 That means they don't learn anything. That's why the school system is actually fundamentally corrupt. It's anti-education. Don't make mistakes and don't ask for help. And if I didn't ask for help, I have my accountants, my attorneys, my bankers, and all that, You know, I go into business like a rugby team. You know, boom, boom. And we kick butt.
Starting point is 00:11:45 But the average guy is standing there, oh, I'm an A student. I'm going to do this all on myself. And a bunch of rugby players run you over. And you go, well, they're not playing fair. You know what? You're playing stupid. You should have a team.
Starting point is 00:11:59 You should have accounts, attorneys, and bankers and all that stuff. But that's not the game I want to play. I said, then don't play the game. You know, the game of business is played with accounts, attorneys, bankers, hate to say it, politicians. You know, you gotta know the game.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Like, I don't wanna hustle. I wanna prosper. I don't wanna grind. I wanna create a machine that monetizes. You know, I'm not shameful of money. I want money, I want a lot of money. I wanna give money away. I wanna raise a lot of money.
Starting point is 00:12:31 You can't do that if you're broke. Most of people watching this thing should either not be in business if they've got one or close the f***er down if they got one. one because you got in business for all the wrong reasons and you don't have the balls to close them down because of what other people are going to say you don't you have you have no idea how limitless it is when you're not afraid of what other people think or say you have no idea there's not two people watching this thing that even has a concept of what it is to act as if you
Starting point is 00:13:08 have no limits to your abilities zero but You have to do something every day that scares you, scares you. And that's a takeoff from Helen Keller who said, or not said, she was deaf, dumb, everything, she couldn't do anything. And she said every day she did something to scare herself. Well, if you and I had all those afflictions, just getting out of bed would be scary enough. And so I decided that one of the differentiations between the people that got the most out of the the week-long seminar and the year-long free mentoring for me is people that really
Starting point is 00:13:50 pressed themselves hard. So I translated that into they've got to do something and list it what they did to scare themselves every single day. Is that the essence of really what you do is getting people to take more risk or to get out of their comfort zones and then the wealth comes later? It's not just out of their comfort zones. It's the change of reality. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:13 you know, your reality is different than my reality. And, you know, your followers, realities are all different. But it's a change of reality. And to make yourself accountable, that's not just getting outside your comfort zone, making yourself accountable, okay? Not just accountable to somebody else. Accountable to you, me, you know, yourself.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Because that's the ultimate, ultimately that's the only person you should be accountable to is yourself. And we grow up, in my judgment wrongly, that we don't hold ourselves accountable enough. We just don't. We've learned to come up with reasons why we can't do this, reasons why it's okay not to do this,
Starting point is 00:14:56 reasons why you didn't follow up on time, reasons why I told the guy I'd get back to him by Wednesday, it's now Friday, oh, it's the weekend, I'll now get back to them on Monday. And life has gotten simpler now. With the Internet and with email and the things where the communication is almost instant, you'd think it should be easier.
Starting point is 00:15:17 But it's not. I use the analogy. 25, 30 years ago, you go in to buy a $100 million company, your due diligence would be three, four, five weeks, and it'd take you three, four, five weeks to close the deal. Okay, a month and a half,
Starting point is 00:15:33 six to eight weeks. With the Internet, it should take less time because the information is instantaneous. It takes us twice, as long to close a deal now. Twice as long. There's no reason for that. Things haven't gotten twice as complicated, but somebody has to put their name on the line. Somebody wants to push off the accountability. Somebody would rather have Brian sign off on it. So I go home early on a Thursday
Starting point is 00:16:03 knowing you're going to come in early on a Monday and your signature will be on the document instead of mine because I don't want to be accountable. And so the kids, the kids today have this need. It's like this thirst for guidance. And the kids do better in the year-long mentor program than the older kids. So the kids in their teens and 20s do better than the guys in their 40s and 50s. That's because the guys in their 40s and 50s got a lot of baggage. Bad habits. Bad habits, you know, and it's tough to get rid of them. And the, you know, motivation gets you started. Good habits keep you going. Most people just have piss-poor habits.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And, you know, I've had these same habits for about 50 years now. Okay, about 50 years. And I don't even think about it. I mean, it's just like brushing my teeth, taking a shower. I just do it. And one of the other interviews that I did with you, I said, when I do feel wimpish, which isn't too often, I just say, come on. And I just go out and do it.
Starting point is 00:17:10 And I do that about my entire life. everything about it. And I know that if I hadn't to build up these habits 20, 30 years ago, you know, at age 70, I certainly wouldn't be doing this. I don't fail very often. I do fail. You're pretty open about all the failures. Yeah, I'm not ashamed of them. That's what's made me who I am.
Starting point is 00:17:37 You said failure is just testing. Correct. It's just testing. And I don't know. And I'm quick to pull the trigger two ways. I'm quick to pull the trigger and trying something. And I'm quick to pull a trigger and close in something. Just turn the key.
Starting point is 00:17:55 What does that mean, turn the key? Turn the key means close the fucking business. Most of the people watching this thing should either not be in business if they've got one or close the fucker down if they got one. Because you got in business for all the wrong reasons and you don't have the balls to close them down because of what other people are going to say,
Starting point is 00:18:15 You have no idea how limitless it is when you're not afraid of what other people think or say. You have no idea. There's not two people watching this thing that even has a concept of what it is to act as if you have no limits to your abilities. Zero. Lack of self-esteem, lack of self-worth. Now, they think they have self-worth.
Starting point is 00:18:49 They think because they've made a few bucks. but in actuality and when they measure it against the other 8, 10, 12 people sitting around the table, they realize or they start to question hell, maybe I was just lucky. Now, all of us, when you're only a one-trick guy or gal, think, was I lucky?
Starting point is 00:19:10 Now, I've done it so many times, I know I wasn't lucky. I might have been lucky the first time, but I haven't been lucky the 15, 20, 40, 50, I know that. Okay. But maybe I was lucky the first time. But my life changed when I went, I was pretty much a haphazard kid, got in a lot of trouble, got arrested four or five times, thrown in jail, and this was my dad's a cop.
Starting point is 00:19:32 But then I went, I volunteered for the draft in 1966 at the height of the Vietnam War and I went to OCS and that changed my life because it was the really first real high performance thing that I could measure myself against other, with other people. Two-thirds of all Fortune 500 CEOs have one thing in common. Military background. Really? Two-thirds of those two-thirds have something else. Martial arts. What do you learn in martial arts, Brian? Discipline, focus.
Starting point is 00:20:07 A lot of people don't believe they deserve to be there. I convince them, and we have these drills, why you belong there. A lot of people that come there, you know, with money, that have made money, think they made it by accident. I just had one of my superstars who's made $100 million, tell me in the last week, you know, I'm not sure I'm going to have another lucky accident. And I said, you did it.
Starting point is 00:20:34 I mean, you know, you tried a lot of things. Thomas Edison, I wouldn't have done it 10,000 times. Okay. I would have hired an engineer from MIT to do it. But, I mean, I've tried a lot of things. Nobody's failed at more things than I have. And the first 100 million are successes, but I could write a book about failures that it'd be, I mean, because I've tried a lot of different things. Because failure is just testing.
Starting point is 00:20:58 And one of the reasons I've been so successful in generating this equity and value in my kids, and I call you all kids, is because I convince him that making a mistake is okay. Your parents probably told you, you can be anything you want. But you can't. That's horses. You can't. If it's all juxtaposed So but what you tell them is That you can do anything you want that you have passion for
Starting point is 00:21:27 Because that eliminates most of the crap Because most people don't follow their dream You know like they say in the sound of music You can't have a dream comes true unless you have a dream Now I still dream I dream in technicolor I say my affirmations and goals every single night It's bloody hard
Starting point is 00:21:47 to be a high performance person. What is your methodology on leadership? What is your methodology on culture? What is your methodology on sales? What is your methodology on teamwork? We can go to a Super Bowl party and we missed a real lesson. You can be down 28 to 3.
Starting point is 00:22:15 But if you have a methodology, your teammates won't panic. If you have a methodology, your teammates won't quit. When you have a methodology, whether you're winning or losing regardless of the score, if you got a methodology, it's the only way that you can win. Your next level is attainable. Your next level is a tangible place. Your next level is up to you, but your next level is about you creating, adopting, or learning
Starting point is 00:22:52 methodologies for everything. Now can I be honest with you? Divorce in America is about 50%. The only thing that happens in relationships, we date. We go to movies, we put on cologne and perfume, we actually comb my hair, we open up the door, we got one methodology to get her. We got one methodology to get him. And then we get married. And what happens? We change our methodology. Ladies and gentlemen, I've been married 23 years and men, I want you to hear me closely. I have methodology and here's my philosophy. It's cheaper to keep her.
Starting point is 00:23:47 So as a result, I try my best to behave the exact same way. I behave when we dated as I do 23 years later. Try it. I promise you it'll work. All right, lesson number one, lesson number one, lesson number one, lesson number one. If you want to be successful in business, lesson number one, cut off the news. The media's job is not to tell us the truth. The media's job is to make money.
Starting point is 00:24:18 The media has figured out that America is addicted to negative information. So every night is six, when you cut out the news, do you ever turn to your wife, husband, significant other and say, honey, I feel real good about America? When's the last time you said that? When you cut out the news, you're angry, you're sad, You're frustrated. Some people are actually scared.
Starting point is 00:24:45 I kick my competitions butt because I don't watch the news. One methodology I want to teach you today is what I use to close deals. And I almost never hear the word no. See, my marketing methodology is called the mouse trap. My job is to simply catch mice. In this context, mice, are meeting planners. People who plan meetings. So in order to build a good mouse trap,
Starting point is 00:25:25 you gotta figure out some good cheese. You gotta build a good mousetrap which begins with cheese. Here's my cheese. Every meeting planner wants a speaker who's entertaining and dynamic and gives the audience great information. That's my cheese. So all my marketing materials says I'm very entertaining and dynamic and I give great information. But once you got somebody nibbling on your cheese, I come in with the clothes and it's fast, it's strong, and it's swift. Because every meeting planner wants an entertaining and dynamic speaker who gives great information.
Starting point is 00:26:05 That's what they're looking for, and I know it. So can I answer you a question? What are your customers looking for? Don't think like you. Think like a customer. See, your closing, mechanism always need to be connected to a promise. People buy promises.
Starting point is 00:26:23 I got a coaching program and I teach all my business leaders, all of my methodologies, and I just gave you one for free. Kind, I didn't go too deep as deep as I could go. Can you do me a favor? Go back and build a mousetrap. Make sure you got some good cheese. But what is your closing mechanism? Everyone loves a promise. I'll be the best motivation to speak of your groups ever had.
Starting point is 00:26:43 You guys know I almost never hear the word no. I'll be the best speaker your groups ever had. It's really hard to say no to that, would you agree? One of the best ways you can build a marketing methodology. It's stop thinking like you. It's start thinking like your customers. What has made me a multi-millionaire, I'm going to reveal to you right now,
Starting point is 00:27:17 and I can prove it to you. The superstars that you're looking for are on the tip of my tongue. What did we think? Did we like them? The likability factor is the best kept secret in business. Higher for attitude trained for skill. Higher for attitude trained for skill. Higher for attitude trained for skill.
Starting point is 00:27:47 The superstars you are looking for in any service-based industry are likable people and And I can prove it to you. Have you ever wondered why and how Oprah became a billionaire? We're convinced 30 million women and about a million men that she was their best friend. And every afternoon, there's 31 million people would tune in to their best friend. Oprah converted the likability factor into money. Is everybody with it? If you don't have a methodology, you're going to have rebellious people spark every now
Starting point is 00:28:36 and then. Am I right or wrong? If you don't have a methodology, you're going to have people go after reservation every now and then, am I right or wrong? So if you don't have a methodology and you got people doing dumb stuff, that's their fault, that's your fault. Did we like them? If the answer was up, what'd that really mean?
Starting point is 00:28:55 Next. Have you guys ever paid attention to the greatest salesman on this earth? See, I pay attention. They call me a thought leader so I'm always thinking. The greatest salesmen on this earth are not business people. They're a bunch of girls four feet tall. Who am I talking about? The Girl Scouts, man, you will bounce a check before you turn a Girl Scout away.
Starting point is 00:29:19 You would buy more cookies, even if you got cookies in the house, my right or wrong. And let's be honest, those cookies aren't that freaking good. Those little girls are sales assassins. It's hard to say no to a Girl Scout. It's like emotional. And here's why. We've all heard it turn before, but we don't execute it.
Starting point is 00:29:47 People want to buy from people they know, people they like, people they trust. If you heard that before. But yet, do you execute that methodology? We know Girl Scouts, we like Girl Scouts, and we trust Girl Scouts. It's hard to say no when you have the trifectar. If you're ready to go to that next level and install methodology, say aha.
