And if you do not yet follow me on Instagram, a lot of people started
Starting point is 00:00:46 following me on Instagram that noticed once I said that I was putting up videos and I was putting up travels and everything from me being out here in Italy for the month. I had a lot of people start following me and it was funny. A lot of people started saying, oh yeah, I never actually knew what you looked like. Now I'm starting to see it's kind of odd because I'm so used to hearing your voice, but now I'm hearing your voice and seeing your videos as well. So if you want to follow along on my travels, like I said, I'm usually pretty about it, keeping you guys updated of where I am, where in the world I'm traveling to. But if you want to follow along in the travels and also see some of the motivational, inspirational Instagram videos that I've been putting up as well. Follow me there at Rob Dial
Starting point is 00:01:25 Jr. So R-O-B-D-I-A-L-J-R on Instagram. So Rob Dial Jr. if you want to follow along with those. Last thing that I have to tell you, and it's actually going to dive in with today's episode, is you guys probably know I'm a huge fan of Tony Robbins. Tony Robbins is actually the very first motivational speaker that I ever started listening to and actually started listening to him on accident because my mom used to listen to him when I was 13. And I remember thinking how corny it was that she used to listen to a motivational speaker and stuff. But as you guys all know, he's crazy successful. He owns like 17 companies worth about $500 million. And I actually have partnered up with Tony for his new information that's coming out
Starting point is 00:02:09 where he's gonna be teaching people how to start a business through the knowledge that they already have inside of their brain. So he actually has a brand new webinar that's gonna be teaching people. It's free, it's April 30th. And if you wanna sign up for it, it's absolutely free to learn from him and another guy who is a massive success as well in the same industry,
Starting point is 00:02:31 Dean Graciosi. So if you want to learn from them, join in on the free webinar, go to 2019tony.com. So 2019tony.com. And you can join in on that free class on April 30th to learn how to start a business mostly online or in person, basically with just the knowledge that you already have. So if you're out there and you want to start your own company or you have your own company, you're looking to get better, you might as well join in on this free webinar to learn from two of the best in the business. So what I want to talk to you about is actually deals specifically with that is can you make money by teaching people what you're already good at? This is one of the things that really surprised me when I got into making money online
Starting point is 00:03:17 was when I first started wanting to make money online, I did a lot of research and figuring out how and here in Austin we have, or in Austin, I'm in Italy right now, but in Austin, we have something called Internet Marketing Party. And I met a lot of people who were making money in really odd ways that I never would have thought. They were teaching people things that were really, to be completely honest with you, kind of obscure. I have a friend, Adam, who teaches people how to play a game called Warhammer 40,000. I never heard of it. It's not even like a big game with a huge following, but he was able to get this really, really niche market, be able to make in his first year over a million dollars
Starting point is 00:03:58 by teaching people how to play this. And he basically became, because of the fact that it's such a small niche market, most people think, oh, if it's such a small market, I probably can't make a lot of money there. But he actually became like the biggest person inside of this community of Warhammer 40,000 by playing board games because people went onto YouTube and started watching him. They started buying his products. He has a YouTube station. I think it's called Knights of the Game Table or something like that. And I started meeting people like him that were making millions of dollars per year by teaching people how to do something. And I never thought that that was an actual business that could be made because you think you got to think of how much knowledge you actually have
Starting point is 00:04:37 inside of your brain, how many things you've learned and how many things you've gotten good at. And this is why I always recommend, don't worry about getting good at a lot of different things. Just worry about getting good at one thing and one thing only, and you can become a multimillionaire off of it. I always tell people that. There's a guy that I follow on Instagram. He seems, if I'm being completely honest, he seems like not the brightest person that you've ever seen, not the sharpest tool in the tool shed. And the one thing that he does know is he knows watches. And that's the reason why I follow him is because he's got a lot of really good watches and he makes millions of dollars per year in Miami off of watches. There's so many people that have very, very limited knowledge, but in that limited knowledge,
Starting point is 00:05:19 that one niche that they have, they have more knowledge than most people do and become multi, do they have? They have more knowledge than most people do and become multi-multi-millionaires at it. So the question I have for you is, do you have knowledge in one category that you could teach to other people? And if you do, can we figure out a way for you to start making money off of that? And there's an ancient technique, I think it's Japanese, and it's called ikigai, I-K-I-G-A-I. And there's four questions that you need to ask yourself in order to find out what your passion is. So if you're trying to find your passion and your purpose and where you should go and start your own business, there's four questions that they have for you. And you want to write down each question. And then with
Starting point is 00:05:59 each question, what you want to do is write out as many things as you possibly can. So the first question is, what do you love to do? So, you many things as you possibly can. So the first question is what do you love to do? So, you know, you take five minutes, you write down all of the things you love to do, play with your dog, you know, hang out with puppies, whatever it is. You might love skincare. You might love all of these different things, puppies and skincare, who knows? What do you love to do? Do you love to travel? Whatever it is, write down all of the things. Don't try to think of how you can make money. Just write down every single thing that you love. The next question you're going to ask yourself and that you want to answer is what are you good at, right? So what are
Starting point is 00:06:34 you good at? The next question that you want to ask yourself is what does the world need? And the last question is what can you be paid for? i had never heard of ikigai but if i were to go back and look you want to look you want to write down all these things what do you love what are you good at what does the world need and what can you be paid for if i were in you know a position where maybe you don't have a business you're trying to start a business if i was in your position i would go through this this exercise and spend an hour, two hours, come back to it the next day, come back to it the day after that. Keep working at it and see if you can find a few places that will overlap. And if I were to take
Starting point is 00:07:16 what I do professionally, what do I love? What am I good at? What does the world need and what can I be paid for? All four of those things, I can say what I do now actually lines up in there. So I didn't know this up until I found out Ikigai, which is, I was already on my path of teaching people personal development and mindset and motivation, all that stuff. But if you look at it, what do I love? I absolutely love growing
Starting point is 00:07:39 and feeling like I'm getting better every single day. What am I good at? I'm good at speaking. I've been, you know, I have over 10,000 hours of speaking and teaching. And I know that I'm really good at taking really complex things and breaking them down for people to be able to understand. What does the world need? The world needs to stop holding themselves back. They need to get past fear. There's a million different things that I could go off on that. And what could I be paid
Starting point is 00:08:00 for? I could be paid to teach people these things. So I got lucky because I was able to find this before I found Ikigai, but if I was in a situation where I didn't know what I was gonna do, if I felt like I had some knowledge and I wanted to figure out some sort of way for me to start my own business doing something that I'm passionate about,
Starting point is 00:08:16 I would look at this and ask myself the four questions and write down as many things as I possibly could in each one of the four questions. What do I love? What am I good at? What does the world need? And what can I be paid for? And see if there's any overlaps in all four of those. If you find overlaps in all four of those, even if it's just one thing, that's something that you become a multimillionaire off of and that could be your purpose and something that
Starting point is 00:08:39 you're passionate about. Then the next question comes is, can you do it online and not have to go to work, not be locked into one place, be able to travel the world while you're doing it? Or if you don't wanna travel the world, be able to spend more time with your family or your friends or your significant other or whatever it is that you wanna do. Can you do it online? And there's a pretty good chance yes.
Starting point is 00:09:02 What you're gonna realize in the next 10 years or so is there's gonna be a lot more shifting. There's already been a huge shift of, you know, 10 years ago, people didn't buy a whole lot of stuff online. I buy almost everything online now. And you could probably be in the same situation as well. Well, think about another 10 years from now. Most people aren't going to probably be going to stores at all. They're going to buy almost everything online. So can you do it online? Can you find something that you love, that you're good at, that the world needs and that you can pay for and make that money online? Therefore, you could quit your job. You could be your own boss, travel the world, not be locked into one
Starting point is 00:09:34 place, spend more time with your family, your friends, maybe homeschool your kids. That's what you got to start thinking about. If you can find those overlaps, then can you figure out a way to start making money online? I told you about my friend, Adam, you would have, what does he love? He loves playing this game Warhammer. What is he good at? He's pretty good at it. What does the world need? You know, I guess the world needed to learn how to play this video game as this board game. And what can he be paid for? He can be paid to, you know, basically create the ESPN of Warhammer. He's an example. There's so many different examples. I met a really odd guy one time at a networking event that made a ton of money online and he was teaching
Starting point is 00:10:12 people how to play this weird, obscure instrument that I had never heard of, but nobody else in the world was teaching it online. And it's a really niche market, but because it was such a niche market, he was able to charge more because he was really good at it and he was really good at teaching people how to do that as well. It's different than everyone else. So you have to realize for each person, the route that they go to making money online is different. So for me, I started a podcast and realized that people liked what I said. And then I started a Facebook and started growing on Facebook. So the podcast was the first thing. And the podcast is, you know, does a couple million downloads per year. Now, Facebook, I had no Facebook following before I started the podcast. There's over 1.5 million
Starting point is 00:10:53 people that follow me there. And, uh, and so it's like, it, I didn't know that the path that I'm on now would be the path, but it ended up becoming the path. So for you, it can be different. It's different for every, everyone else, different. It's different for everyone else. But what you really just need is the structure of exactly how to do it. And for me, I've thought about it. And that's not my passion is to teach people how to make money online. It's just not. So people always reach out to me and say, hey, can you teach me how to start and make money online or how to free myself up and create my own job and start my own business. And for me, that's just not my passion. It's not something I want to teach, but I know a lot of people always reach out and try to figure out how to do that.
Starting point is 00:11:32 I don't know anybody that really teaches it well, but I do know this is the reason why I'm bringing it back up again, is that this webinar is going to be talking about how to take your purpose, your passion, and actually turn it into making money online by taking the knowledge you already have in your brain and actually learning how to do it. Learning the structure of how to build a following, how to get people into a mastermind, or how to get people into a coaching program, or how to fill seats and actually get people to events if you want to start doing events. So what I would recommend is if you're out there, number one,
Starting point is 00:12:14 the first thing that I would recommend is that you Google Ikigai, I-K-I-G-A-I, and you start this process. If you're trying to learn what you're passionate about, what your purpose is, what your next job could be that you create, well, what I would do is I would ask yourself those four questions and Google it. It goes much is I would ask yourself those four questions and Google it. It goes much more in depth than just the four questions. Start to figure that out and then ask yourself after you figure it out, man, could I make money off this one thing? And if you can, what I would do is join in on this free webinar. Even if you don't know what it is that you can make money on right now, I would join in on this free webinar because it is literally absolutely free. And it's going to be 90 minutes. It's Tony Robbins teaching exactly the structure of how to make money online, how to create your own job.
