Your choice is to say which evidence am I going to seek?
Am I gonna seek evidence that's going to support me
and my success and those that I care for?
Or will I discover evidence that's gonna hold me back?

and achieve unparalleled success.
Somebody tell me something good.
Who's got something good to tell us?
I already did my
workout today. What did you do?
I bike.
I rode my bike. Okay, good.
How far did you go? Oh, I didn't
use my Strava. Okay.
Well, good job, Leslie.
Who's next? Tell us something good.
I enrolled in college
and I start my classes March 17th.
Congrats, congrats, congrats.
Who's next? Someday I'll enroll in college when I retire.
I have a contract coming in and on one of my listings that I've been hoping to get off the market.
So fingers crossed. It will.
It will. It will.
And I need those fingers crossed for a few of my listings as well.
I gotta take a look at that today actually.
Price drops.
That's my theme of the day.
Somebody else tell us something good.
So my daughter was in the NICU for 17 days and last night we got to bring her home.
Bless you man. God bless you.
And she's healthy, she's okay?
Yep, everything's good. Good man., man. God bless you. And she's healthy. She's okay? Yep, everything's good.
Good man. Good man. That's a blessing.
I know we all have blessings and things to be grateful for,
but that's a significant one. So, glad to hear that, Harvey.
Alright, let's talk today
about self-doubt and limiting
beliefs causing us to have
a lack in achieving
what we want to achieve. And this
is a big one today because
the challenge that we have with our self-doubt and. And this is a big one today because the challenge that we have
with our self doubt and our limiting beliefs
is a couple fold.
One is there's always evidence.
There's always, always, always evidence.
So when you're seeking for evidence,
I guarantee you that you're gonna find it.
So if you have a belief to say,
I can't do this because,
that because it's always gonna be there.
You know, I can't do this because the neighborhood agent has the
territory marked out.
I can't do this in this market.
I can't do this with the changes in the industry, with all the settlements
in the way, the commissions have changed.
And I can't do this because I'm new.
I can't do this because I'm old.
I can't do this because I'm a minority.
I can't do this because I'm a man.
I'm a woman. I'm a minority. I can't do this because I'm a man, I'm a woman, I'm a
whatever. Okay? Whatever comes after that because you're gonna find the evidence
of that. Now, here's the little trick to this. I can do this because there's also
evidence of that. So your choice is to say, which evidence am I going to seek?
Am I gonna seek evidence that's going to support me
and my success and those that I care for?
Or will I discover evidence that's gonna hold me back?
Because both exist.
As a coach, the number one thing
that's so frustrating to me is when I'm coaching somebody
and they get stuck into a limiting belief
and they start fighting on it.
And I'm just being candid with you,
that's something that as a coach I have struggled with,
like for me to become a better coach, right? Because, you know, when somebody
tells me something like it can't be done and it can be done, that's just a challenge for me,
right? And that's for me to become a better coach, right? Because my job's not to be right. My job's
to be able to help somebody get from where they are to where they're meant to be, right? And so,
my human being will be like, dude, you know, you're insane. Of course you could do this. Right? Like there's so much evidence that you can, you know, that's my human beingness. But then my coach has to understand and say, wait, my job's not to be right. My job is to be able to help them for them to discover that it can be done.
done. So this goes back into the self coaching model, right, that we've talked in the past and I'll remind you what the self coaching model is, which is if you
can envision a clock and at the 12 o'clock position you wrote down the
words circumstance. That circumstance is something that you sense the world
through your five senses, okay? So your five senses is the way that you observe
the world and then from those five senses
Whatever you observe then you give it meaning
So here's the significant thing for you to recognize and for you to realize you give it meaning through your thoughts and your feelings
The challenge is that you're going to distort delete and generalize those experiences
based off of your culture, your experiences, your upbringing, your education, your
relationships, the things that influence who you are. So something comes into your
world, your circumstance. You sense it through your five senses. You delete it,
you distort it, and generalize it. And you define it and you give it meaning based
off of what your experiences in the world have been. If your experiences in
the world have been that you have struggled, that's where the limiting beliefs are going to come from. If the experiences of the world have been. If your experiences in the world have been that you have struggled, that's where the limiting beliefs are going to come from.
If the experiences of the world have been that you have been able to move
through any struggle and get to the back side of something to a success, then
you're going to have more empowering beliefs. So there's circumstance and
then it gets filtered through the deletions, distortions, generalizations based
off your experiences, you're going to have a thought about it.
That thought, if it's a positive thought, then you're going to have positive feelings.
Hey, hey, salesperson, are you struggling to close deals or struggling to gain trust
or are you struggling to create consistent and predictable income?
I'm Dan Rocheye And I've seen it all.
Salespeople stuck in uncertainty,
guessing their way through the business.
And that's why I created
the Consistent Predictable Income CPI Inner Circle,
to give you the tools to master, teach yourself,
and finally eliminate the struggle.
Learn how to influence, close,
and turn doubt into trust on repeat. No more trial and error,
just results. Ready to take control? Visit www.nobrokemonths.com, that's nobrokemonths.com.
Click login and get started today. So you go back to that clock and we go into like a
circle and the top of that the circumstance to the right of, call it around maybe two or three o'clock,
call it two o'clock. You write down the word circumstance,
you write down the word thoughts and then below that word thoughts in around the
five o'clock position, you write down the word feelings.
And what I just described to you is your life. That's it. That's your life. Now,
from that, you could then take actions.
If you want to write the word actions around the 7 o'clock position
and then you're gonna have results that's gonna be around the 10 o'clock position and
So if you're following along it's gonna look something like this and if anyone wants to get some price drops for me
Then you can follow along with that too. You can go do my job for me today. That'd be nice. Anywho. All right
So this is your life
so we go back into having a conversation about how can you have that self
doubt and transform it into empowerment? And how does that get in your way of having success
in sales and in life, by the way? I wanted to share with you two examples, one being very,
very vulnerable. All right. So recently last year, I was really, really grateful to be asked to speak
in front of live audiences
as a paid speaker outside of the real estate industry, talking about how normal linguistic
programming can be able to allow people to be able to achieve what they want to achieve and what
they're meant to be able to get. And I spoke on several stages in front of thousands of people,
and I was very grateful to be able to serve. And it caused me to say, well, I want to do more of
that. And I know for me to be able to do more of that, then I have to just get on more stages.
So then as I get into more stages, then I'll be able to make an impact.
And then people will learn how to teach to sell.
And then as I teach people how to teach to sell so they can have no broke months, then,
you know, I just got to get the momentum going.
Just like when I started in my real estate sales career, like I had nothing.
I just had to get the momentum going.
So it took a massive amount of action.
We counted the other day. I've applied for 65 speaking gigs, probably since before Thanksgiving.
So maybe two months, we've put in 65 applications for me to speak to. Do you know how many
responses I had before last week from those 65? Anyone want to guess? 65 applications for me to be
a paid speaker. How many people said, yeah, let's talk?
Seven.
The answer is zero.
Now since last week, I have two people who want to talk to me now, one of which wants
me to speak in front of three events and one that wants me to speak in front of one event.
So that's four events right there.
I also went through a casting call where I'm in the third round of interviews to be on a show on Amazon Prime that is like a competition show for entrepreneurs.
That's all happened within the last two weeks. I also got some information about doing a TEDx talk and that's like to be determined.
And so those successes after two months of zero all occur within about a week of each other. And none of them are like locked in yet.
They're just like feedback that I may have success.
If I was a younger entrepreneur,
I myself who has a credible amount of confidence
may have quit at 64.
A lot of people quit at 64, most do.
The Napoleon Hill and Think and Grow Rich
tells about a story about a prospector
who was prospecting for gold and literally got tells about a story about a prospector who was prospecting
for gold and literally got within like a foot of the gold and then get there.
Sold the lot, somebody else comes in, hires engineers, hires the right people, finds out
that there is gold there and the previous people were one foot away from the gold.
Too often we stop too short. And I'll be candid with you. Around
number 50 of the applications with zero response, I started thinking, man, I got to find a different
way to do this. I didn't give up on the goal. I just was like evaluating the strategy. Now
I hadn't come up with a new strategy except for hiring a coach, which I've not hired yet.
I'm going to hire for a speaking coach probably in the next quarter.
The only reason why I'm not doing that is I don't have the time to be able to
invest into that right now, but as soon as I'm done with some projects, I'm
going to be able to do that.
And so I will hire a coach solely to be able to help me become a better speaker.
Solely to be able to help me get speaking engagements.
Not for my industry, not for real estate sales.
I have that coach and not for business development.
I have that coach.
I'm talking to coach solely to be able to help guide me
to be a better speaker.
And I'll do that in the next quarter or so.
That's the only thing that I came up with to say,
I gotta change my tactic.
And I hadn't really come up with other good ideas.
And the good news is the applications
are starting to improve results.
So I want you to think about this.
If I allow my self doubt to interfere,
if I allowed my self-doubt to interfere, if I allowed my experiences, my
circumstance, my vision of life to get in the way, do you think I would have gotten
to 65 applications with zero responses? I guarantee you not. Okay? And so what I'm
encouraging for you to do is to...sometimes you have to have blind faith. And if you
don't have the success yet, then what you have to do is you have to have blind faith. And if you don't have the success yet,
then what you have to do is you have to steal that faith from somebody else.
