The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 432 – Full Throttle Thursday – Supply Chain Issues & the Age of Opportunity Nov 18, 2021

Show notes

One of the interesting things that came out of the pandemic was that more and more people have realized they don’t have to work for someone else. After the world shut down, many people couldn’t do their jobs. Being forced to stay home for an extended period of time, they had to figure out other ways of making money. The great illusion was shattered, as many people decided to stop working at a job they hated. They realized they could do side hustles or even start their own business.

Since then, we’ve seen a huge depletion of the workforce—known as “The Great Resignation”—where people are quitting their jobs in droves. There were 10.4 million job openings in August. It’s been reported that about 4.3 million people left the workforce and aren’t coming back.

This is affecting every aspect of our supply chain—from stores not having certain items on the shelf, to new trucks not being able to be sold, due to chips being unavailable. Truck drivers are quitting, and we don’t have enough people working to move things that need to be moved.

On the bright side, there’s more opportunity now than ever before to grow a business. Opportunity is everywhere.

In today’s episode, BT and I discuss what’s happening with our fragile supply chain—and what I (as a former truck driver) believe we can expect going forward.

The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 431: Do a Little More, Be a Little More

The post The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 432 – Full Throttle Thursday – Supply Chain Issues & the Age of Opportunity appeared first on Successful Mind Podcast.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 431 – Do a Little More, Be a Little More Nov 16, 2021

Show notes

To expand on the idea of “giving your best,” today I’m teaching on what it means to “do a little more” and “be a little more.”

It’s not enough just to be your best. You also need to “better your best.” You have to look closely at how you’re using your thoughts on a daily basis—and make sure your thoughts are tied to your purpose. As you do this, you get stronger in character. You build confidence, deepen your belief, and expand your vision. This forms the starting point for manifesting anything you want in life.

In this episode you’ll learn:

- Every thought you have should be linked to your purpose; otherwise, you can’t accomplish much of anything

- Being aimless is a vice—and letting your thoughts drift to anything other than your purpose brings catastrophe and destruction

- To connect to your “why,” you must ask yourself, “What is the reason why I’m doing ANYTHING?”

- People without a central purpose in life are “easy prey” to worries, fears, doubts, and troubles—which all indicate weakness of mind

- If you lack a specific purpose and aren’t conscious of what you’re doing, you open yourself up to being manipulated and conned by other people —because you’re not thinking

- By conquering doubt and fear, you also conquer failure

You should devote yourself entirely to the attainment of your life’s purpose—and never allow your thoughts to wander away from this. As James Allen wrote in As a Man Thinketh, we need to stay present in what we’re doing each day. We need to be conscious of our thoughts and make sure we’re bettering our best.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 430 – Mindset Monday’s – Do Your Best Nov 15, 2021

Show notes

Many years ago, when I first tripled my income in 30 days, this happened as a result of changing three things in my attitude. One of those was, I decided to “do my best with everything.”

Most people, myself included, were programmed NOT to give their best, but to approach work from the idea of, “When do I get to be done?” “When do I get to go home?” “When is it over?” This way of thinking shows up throughout the middle class and keeps many people stuck.

If you want to transform your life, you must approach your work differently. You must come with the attitude of, “How can I give my best?”

In today’s episode I’m drawing from James Allen’s book, As a Man Thinketh, to help you do your best. You’ll learn:

- How your thoughts impact your health and body

- “Unlawful” or impure thoughts and habits cause the body to sink into disease and decay

- The body is a “delicate, plastic instrument” that responds readily to whatever thoughts are impressed upon it

- Out of a clean heart comes a clean life and a clean body

- Out of a defiled mind comes a defiled life and a corrupt body

- The body is the mind’s servant; it obeys the mind, whether your thoughts are deliberately chosen or unconsciously expressed

- There’s no “physician” like cheerful thought for dissolving the body’s ills

In order to do your best, always remember that your thoughts really do affect how you feel. Your thoughts also help you attract the right people you want into your life—happy, healthy, and wealthy people.

What does your best actually look like? And how can you bring that out of yourself? It would serve you to find out what that really looks like for you.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 429 – Full Throttle Thursday – Dishonorably Discharged: Mandates & Our Military Nov 11, 2021

Show notes

In the United States, it’s our right to openly disagree with our government, without consequence. People have fought and died to protect this right. Veterans Day was turned into a national holiday by President Eisenhower on May 26th, 1954, to honor those who have served in our great military, both past and present.

In today’s episode, BT and I discuss what the Biden administration is trying to do to dishonor these very important people. President Biden has apparently said that anybody who’s active military who declines to get the COVID vaccine, will be dishonorably discharged. I served in the military many years ago, and I find this inappropriate, disturbing, and completely wrong.

A dishonorable discharge is the equivalent of a felony. It ruins your life. You lose all military privileges and benefits. You lose your right to vote in most states. You lose the right to carry or own a gun in the United States, just as if you were a regular felon.

When you go down the road of punishing people who disagree with the government, that sets a dangerous precedent. World history shows what this kind of mindset leads to. The Nazis didn’t become the Nazis overnight—it all slipped away gradually, over time. Germany slipped away one mandate, one idea, at a time. Russia slipped away a little bit at a time. All the communist countries and those with totalitarian regimes slipped away—until the people couldn’t do anything anymore.

We can’t tolerate that in the United States. If we tolerate this, we’ll start turning into a totalitarian government. That’s how these things start. Our government does not get to say, “You have to agree with this, or you’ll be punished.”

I want to state for the record: I’m not an anti-vax person. I’m an anti-mandate person. There’s something about the Covid vaccine mandate that concerns me and is extremely wrong to me. In my opinion, it’s a dangerous mindset. It can cause us to risk losing our rights and our beloved country.

We wish all of our veterans out there a “Happy Veterans Day.” We honor you and thank you for your commitment to keeping us safe and doing what you do.

The Inner Game of Sales – Part I: Having the Right Mindset Around Sales

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 428 – The Inner Game of Sales – Part V Nov 09, 2021

Show notes

Are you looking for ways to boost sales in your business? Listen in its entirely this 5-part series titled, “The Inner Game of Sales.” You’ll learn tips and tricks to boosting your income in a short period of time. These tips will make selling easier, more profitable, and more fun. To get the best results, be sure to listen to and study all 5 episodes. This is part 5 of 5.

To get really good at sales, you need to have courage during your sales conversations. This means you need to be in control of what you’re doing, you need to be able to ask questions that might not seem very “nice,” and you need to be able to sit in the uncomfortable silence after you’ve asked a question. You need to be able to challenge people’s deeply held personal beliefs, and then ask for a commitment. All of that takes courage.

One of the fastest ways to become amazing at sales is to get over your own resistance. You must first overcome any challenges you have within yourself—including any limited beliefs you have around money, time, boundaries, or other things. You have to get a lot of things straight with YOU first, before you can influence someone else.

In this episode you’ll learn:

- A sales conversation is NOT the place to have casual talk about anything unrelated to the sale

- A person’s mind is highly reactive to any stimulus, so talking about something casual is a distraction

- In a sales conversation, your job is to ask for the commitment

- Questions you can ask to get a person to make a commitment to go after what they want

- What it means when somebody tells you, “I don’t have enough money” (hint: it has to do with urgency)

- Why having a value conflict in your own mind about money (or other things) will cause you have a “double binding message,” which will kill the sale

- You must always convey the “impression of increase” during a sales call, so that people feel like YOU have the answer to their problem

- Why you should never try to get the other person to “like” you (they’ll think, “If this person’s like me, then they can’t really help me”)

To influence someone else, you must first be able to influence yourself. How much do YOU go after what you really want (versus just what you “need”)?

This concludes the 5-part series, “The Inner Game of Sales.” Be sure to listen to this series over and over in order to take your sales game to the TOP! See the links to the entire series below:

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 427 – Mindset Monday’s – Create Your Own Destiny Nov 08, 2021

Show notes

In As a Man Thinketh, James Allen teaches how our thoughts play a role in our ability to achieve anything. Everything we achieve—and fail to achieve—is the direct result of our own thoughts. Once you understand this, you realize YOU’RE responsible for everything in your life, including the successes and the failures.

Many people believe their achievements and failures are based on something outside of them. That’s simply not true. They often tighten up around the idea of taking “responsibility” for their own life. If you’re doing that, then you’ve linked that word—responsibility—to something you’re judging negatively.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

- In a just and orderly universe, individual responsibility must be absolute; it has to come first above all else

- Responsibility is one of the most freeing things—it gets rid of shame and guilt, and removes the BS from your thinking

- Your greatest power is your ability to choose: “I can choose to think something different”

- When you have a genuine desire for something, pursuing that thing is often essential to your next level of growth

- A strong man cannot help a weaker man unless the weaker one is willing to be helped—and even then, the weak man must be strong himself

- Before you can achieve anything, you must lift your thoughts above “slobbish animal indulgence” (i.e., survival thinking)

- There can be no progress or achievement without sacrifice (i.e., letting go of something of a lower nature, in order to gain something of a higher nature)

Every one of us has the ability to create our own destiny. We’re not held down, held back, or underpaid by any other person, unless we allow that to happen. We don’t have to change society to be free. We need to step into our freedom, regardless of what society thinks, because society won’t change in order to fix your problem.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 426 – Full Throttle Thursday – You CAN Always Get What You Want: The Rolling Stones & The Power of Music Nov 04, 2021

Show notes

The Rolling Stones have created some of the most amazing music the world has ever known. They’ve been rocking since 1962—for nearly 60 years, thanks to their insane work ethic, unparalleled commitment to their craft, and professionalism. Their longevity is rare in the music world. No matter what their age is, they keep going at a high level. They’re not doing it for the money—they’re doing it because they love doing what they do. You won’t find a more prolific band than that. I recently got to see them in concert, and it was so fun.

In today’s episode, BT and I chat about some of the bands, singers, and songs we’ve fallen in love with over the years, and how music has a deep impact on people—because it can transport you to the past, and to other worlds.

We discuss:

- How I was exposed to many types of music growing up (my parents loved Motown, and my dad grew up with the Buckinghams on the south Side of Chicago)

- My earliest memory of being deeply moved by a song (for BT, “Time in a Bottle” by Jim Croce brings him instantly to his past)

- How music has evolved from albums to eight tracks, cassettes, CDs, and beyond

- How going to the record store was like a rite of passage as a teenage boy or girl

- Some of our favorite bands and singers—including the Beatles, The British invasion, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, Ginsburg, and many others

- How different genres of rock music have changed between 1980 and 2000

- How weird it is to see people age (especially when you’re the same age as them)

All of the musicians and bands we’ve loved have gone through the same human struggles that you and I go through. They’ve just found a way to persevere—and they did it through music. Here’s to all the great musicians out there who just won’t quit.

Show notes

Are you looking for ways to boost sales in your business? Listen to this 5-part series titled, “The Inner Game of Sales.” You’ll learn tips and tricks to boosting your income in a short period of time. These tips will make selling easier, more profitable, and more fun. To get the best results, please listen to and study all 5 episodes. This is part 4 of 5.

Sales conversations can be fun and seriously life-changing for people, as long as you really believe in what you’re offering to someone. The key to selling is get people to buy into what THEY want to do—and to tap into THEIR reasons for wanting to do it (not your reasons why you think they should buy).

Given that you’re in control of the sales conversation, you can guide the process of creating urgency for the other person to go after what they truly want.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

- Amazing salespeople understand how the mind works, and how to lead the mind

- How to bypass psychological resistance on a sales call by asking the person, “What do you really want?”

- How to get people to think deeply in the moment, so they can answer your questions (and why you shouldn’t rush in to “save” a person from answering a really deep question)

- How thinking about consequences of NOT doing something creates urgency, which moves the conversation into a buying conversation

- What causes a person to say “yes” during a sales call(they became aware that there’s something important in their life that they need—and want—to change)

- People who have a barrier up and don’t want to share anything aren’t your ideal clients (your ideal clients WANT to engage with you)

- How to limit refunds, lawsuits, and unhappy people talking about your product or service on the internet—by having great customer service

Plus, I share how I recognize where a sales conversation goes bad. (Hint: it has to do with “telling” versus “asking questions.”)

Very few people have relationships in their life where somebody really cares about what they want—so when you actively show up and passionately ask the person what they want, they become fully, emotionally engaged in the question. This is what ramps up your sales!

Stay tuned next week for the final episode in this 5-part series!
