The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 502 – Mindset Monday’s – Opportunity Knocks at the Door of Chaos May 02, 2022

Show notes

Whenever we ask the universe for something—opportunity, money, people, situations, circumstances, sales—we’re also asking for chaos to show up in our life.

Most people have a tendency to want to run away from chaos, rather than accept it when it shows up. (And it will show up.) Although we want peace in our mind and in our heart, we need chaos in order to experience growth. Chaos consistently keeps us on the edge of life and gives us growth, and it can be very uncomfortable.

In this episode you’ll learn:

- Leadership is born in chaos, not in calm

- A leader can recognize chaos and develop a plan of action in order to break through the unnatural state that keeps most people stuck

- When you’re trying to reach your goal, comfort is the enemy

- One of the purposes of money is to be able to extend our service far beyond our physical presence

- Money allows us to take advantage of chaotic situations in a way that lets us establish a pattern for growth

- We don’t want chaos all the time, but we want to have enough calm in our life so that we can think, plan, and create systems and structures to move forward—and this is the job of the leader

There’s a very healthy dose of chaos within the universe.

Close your eyes, sit quietly, and ask yourself, “What do I want to create?” Get yourself really focused on the thing you want to create. As you do that, you’re creating calm and significance out of chaos. That’s what it means to be a leader.

The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 501 Full Throttle Thursday – After Burn: Fyre Festival & The Greatest Party That Never Was

The post The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 502 – Mindset Monday’s – Opportunity Knocks at the Door of Chaos appeared first on Successful Mind Podcast.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 501 – Full Throttle Thursday – After Burn: Fyre Festival & The Greatest Party That Never Was Apr 28, 2022

Show notes

Five years ago, in 2017, the infamous Fyre Festival was scheduled to go off in Great Exuma in the Bahamas. Co-founded by con artist, Billy McFarland, and rapper Ja Rule, the festival was intended to launch an app for Fyre Media. They used slick marketing in their promotional videos to appeal to millennials, while using social media influencers and beautiful models to sell the dream. It was supposed to be this massive event that would disrupt the industry.

Then everything fell apart. Fyre Festival was “the greatest event that never was.” Billy McFarland went to prison for fraud. And now the question remains whether he was truly trying to con people—or if he really intended to pull off the festival, but just couldn’t make it work.

In today’s episode, BT and I discuss:

- Billy McFarland, his intentions; his intelligent, yet manipulative nature, and how he was a sociopathic narcissist

- How he got loans based on fake financials, while reinventing ways to make money to just keep creditors at bay and to be able to get the festival off the ground

- My take on what Billy was doing, and how he got so deep into it that he couldn’t call it off even if he tried

- Why our intention is everything—and there was a way to actually make the festival work with what they wanted, but they had no real plan

- My experience with being conned when I was really young—and how they get you to believe something that’s 100% false

- Human psychology, “fake-it-till-you make-it” mentality and how the millennial generation got duped into—and shamed for—going to this festival-that-never-was

I’m not convinced either way if Billy was intentionally trying to con people, or whether he intended to see the festival through. However, it’s a fascinating discussion on our intention, why we need a plan for success, and our ability to follow through on our plan.

I highly recommend you check out both the Netflix and Hulu documentaries on the Fyre Festival.

The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 500: Something Good is Coming Your Way

The post The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 501 – Full Throttle Thursday – After Burn: Fyre Festival & The Greatest Party That Never Was appeared first on Successful Mind Podcast.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 500 – Something Good is Coming Your Way Apr 26, 2022

Show notes

Often when God (or the universe) speaks to me, I wake up at 2:20 in the morning and hear a particular message over and over again.

This happened years ago before I started my business. I kept waking up at 2:20 in the morning, hearing a voice in my head say, “If you want to live your dream, you have to leave.” Spirit was telling me to quit my job so that I could start the business that I’m in today. I didn’t know it at the time, but the voice was directing me to my life’s purpose. If I hadn’t listened, I wouldn’t be where I’m at today.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

- Why I almost needed a guarantee or certainty that quitting my job was the right path for me (it was important to me to know that the message I was hearing was coming from Spirit)

- Why I didn’t tell anyone I was quitting my job, once I finally made the decision to do so

- What I learned about setting intentions, manifestation, and believing for the thing you want—and why I needed to put all of that to the ultimate test

- When you hear a message from God, it’s very important that you follow those instructions and don’t change what you’re doing (even if a door closes)

- Why you should keep doing what you’re doing, and pay attention to whatever is showing up—because there’s something great coming to you

- God is good all the time

Plus, I share the crazy story of how a neighbor gave me a message from Godthat was an absolute verification of what I was hearing from the universe—which confirmed that I’d made the right choice of quitting my job. (It gave me chills.)

Whatever you’re waiting for, or working on right now—“it’s on its way to you.”

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 499 – Mindset Monday’s – Three Steps to Mastering Sales Apr 25, 2022

Show notes

To become a master salesperson, you must first address your own attitude and belief about sales. If you don’t address this first, you’ll have trouble with everything else—including hiring amazing salespeople and building a sales team.

All people are born salespeople. Selling is not only required for human life to exist, but to continue moving forward. It’s in our genes to sell. Anytime two people come together, one person will sell the other on SOMETHING.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

- The 2 kinds of sales—a “need” sale (where a person needs something but doesn’t necessarily want it) and a sale where someone knows they want something, and they just need to figure out how to get it and move past the obstacles in their way

- Why I made a decision early on, to learn to love sales and to be extremely passionate about it

- Why it’s a mistake to let your potential client sell you on the reasons why they can’t do something

- 3 things to learn before you start hiring sales people (these are: how to find potential clients, how to sell them—i.e., “close the sale”—and how to develop a continued relationship with them, so that more sales or referrals come out of it)

- Why you shouldn’t ever be afraid to NOT make a sale (I believe this is simply a decision you can make)

Sales requires a lot of work. You must know your product or service inside out and understand how it benefits someone else. You have to develop people skills, improve your ability to have a conversation, ask for what you want, and listen. You have to pay attention to the objections you get and the questions people ask you about your product or service—what it does, how long will it take, and everything else involved. It’s different for every business, product, and service.

You must also have a strong self-image and build up your belief in yourself to succeed at sales. If you don’t, a potential client will see that a mile away.

The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 498 Full Throttle Thursday – The Pursuit of Happiness

The post The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 499 – Mindset Monday’s – Three Steps to Mastering Sales appeared first on Successful Mind Podcast.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 498 – Full Throttle Thursday – The Pursuit of Happiness Apr 21, 2022

Show notes

On Easter Sunday, Jordan Peterson made an Instagram post titled, “Pursue Your Life’s Adventure.” In it, he said, “To pursue your life’s adventure is better than happiness…and maybe if you’re lucky, while you’re pursuing it, you get to be happy.” (Click here to read the full post)

This is something I completely disagree with. Peterson struggles with happiness himself, which is why he says things like this. He’s made it very public that he struggles with depression.

I don’t think happiness comes from luck. Happiness is a state of being. It’s a choice, and a level of consciousness. As conscious beings, our greatest power is our ability to choose. That’s how we create our reality.

In today’s episode, BT and I discuss our thoughts on Peterson’s post. You’ll learn:

- Our perception creates all of our emotional states, and we can choose to change our perception

- Why some people are miserable from the time they wake up until the time they go to bed

- How I was miserable at 22 years old, but I found out that I could change it—and I wanted to change it (and I ended up tripling my income in 30 days after I changed my attitude)

- How Jordan Peterson has studied very dark subjects all of his life—and when you only study the dark side of human nature, you can get stuck there

- It’s not one person’s responsibility to save the world —everyone must stay in their own “conscious lane”

- Complaining about everything doesn’t solve anything—you need focused action, a plan, and people who can think

- How the law of polarity can help you choose to be happy

We’re all part of an amazing intelligence in the universe that continues to push life forward. Everything that happens (whether “good” or “bad”) can be seen as something that’s leading up to something greater. Every problem is leading to something better.

Each of us can have an intention to feel a certain way or experience whatever we want—whether it’s feeling happy, sad, angry, or mad. You can choose to show up in a certain way, and this is a choice based on your level of consciousness or understanding

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 497 – Insider Secrets for Creating Consistent Cashflow – Part II Apr 19, 2022

Show notes

The smartest thing I ever did was to step into an environment that allowed me to increase my own intelligence so that I could make a lot of money.

If you hang around people who are millionaires, before you know it—you’ll become a millionaire. If you hang around broke people, you’ll stay broke. Many people are loyal to the broke environment they grew up in, and so, they’ll stay broke their whole lives because of that.

You don’t have to be really smart to make a lot of money. You just need to put yourself in the right environment where your beliefs about money can be challenged.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

- There’s no such thing as a stupid person

- The brain is elastic, meaning whatever environment we put ourselves in, our brain will adapt itself to that environment

- If you want to be rich, you have to get all the crap ideas about money out of your mind (like “money won’t make you happy” and “money is the root of all evil”)

- Money is a tool that is absolutely essential for us to live a quality life

- You either do something, or you don’t—“trying” is a pre-excuse for failure

- We fail and make mistakes before we learn how to do something

- Human beings have the ability to create (and this is a divine principle)

You can’t unlock your full potential unless you change your beliefs about money. If money—or the lack it—is making all of your decisions, then you’re making money your god, and that’s a false idea you need to get rid of.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 496 – Insider Secrets for Creating Consistent Cashflow – Part I Apr 18, 2022

Show notes

All of us have extraordinary potential inside of us that we can use at a moment’s notice. To earn more income and create consistent cashflow, the #1 insider secret is to put yourself into an environment where success is actually possible.

When everything in your current environment is telling you that you can’t do something—you must put yourself in the environment of someone who’s successfully done what you want to do. Hire a mentor who has the results you want, because that person can challenge you to reevaluate your belief system. They can challenge you to replace your belief with something that’s true.

Most people believe it takes a long time and a lot of hard work to make 6 figures a month. When I worked with my mentor, Bob Proctor, he allowed me to reevaluate my belief system, one belief at a time. As I did this, my results changed accordingly. I went from making $20K a year to $60k—and soon after that, I took my business over a million.

In this episode you’ll learn:

- Belief is absolutely essential for the success you want to have

- Our belief is based on our evaluation of something

- Many people don’t break through to the next level, because they only evaluate their results—not their belief system

- A belief you haven’t evaluated is controlling how you think, feel, and act (we call that a “paradigm”)

- When we reevaluate our belief, we can change it—which then changes our results

- Nothing will change in your life without you making a decision to do something different and making the commitment to stick to that decision

- Why we need to put ourselves into the environment of someone who can show us it’s possible for big income to happen fast

Earl Nightingale said attitude is the magic word—meaning that when you change your attitude, you change your outlook on what you see in life.

The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 495 Full Throttle Thursday – A Conversation with Quan Huynh

The post The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 496 – Insider Secrets for Creating Consistent Cashflow – Part I appeared first on Successful Mind Podcast.

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 495 – Full Throttle Thursday – A Conversation with Quan Huynh Apr 14, 2022

Show notes

My guest today is Quan Huynh, a former prison inmate, published author, and business owner who is now working to help those with a criminal past transform their lives.

A product of the California prison system, Quan served 22 years of his life in and out of correctional facilities. After receiving a life sentence for murder, he was paroled in 2015. Today he’s the executive director for Defy Ventures, a nonprofit whose mission is to shift mindsets, and to give people with criminal histories their best shot at a second chance through career readiness, personal development, and entrepreneurship training programs.

Quan Huynh is the author of Sparrow in the Razor Wire: Finding Freedom from Within While Serving a Life Sentence. He’s been featured on Entrepreneur, PBS News Hour, Talks at Google, and numerous other publications.

In today’s episode we discuss:

- Quan’s life growing up in Provo, Utah, in a Roman Catholic, Vietnamese family, while experiencing racism as a boy

- How he never felt like he fit in anywhere—until he and his friends started breaking into cars and stealing stereos[

- The dark path Quan took that ended up with him facing 45 years to life in prison at the age of 17, for conspiracy to commit murder (and that was just his first arrest)

- How employers can legally discriminate against former prisoners who are looking for work

- The moment when Quan completely shifted his viewpoint—hearing a sparrow chip outside, he started seeing his prison sentence as an opportunity to remake himself into a better person

- How Quan helped other inmates prepare to go in front of the parole board—by looking at the reality of their past, versus the inaccurate stories they told themselves about their past crimes

- How Quan started a business within six months of being paroled, and how his work is helping people prepare to transition from prison to the outside world

The cost of incarcerating one person in California is $90,000 a year—versus $1500 to put someone through Quan’s program. Most inmates walk out of prison with $200 and no support. Quan is now working to shift mindset of the business community and those who can directly help them solve this problem

His story is remarkable, and I urge you to give it a listen!

The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 494 – Be Mighty in the Mundane Apr 12, 2022

Show notes

You weren’t born into living your dream. You’re being prepared for your dream. As you’re working, showing up each day, doing what’s required to get there—sometimes it feels like nothing is happening. Still, you must consider how important your behavior is during these mundane times.

When you plant seeds in the ground, there’s a time lapse that occurs before the harvest comes in. Doubt can enter your mind while you’re waiting if you’re not careful. This is why you must be “mighty in the mundane.”

In this episode you’ll learn:

- Challenges happen every day to everyone—you must pay attention to how you handle the small things, or you’ll completely miss it with the big things

- We must be just as strong and magnificent in cleaning up dog poop, taking the kids to school, or handling some mundane crisis—as we are in landing a big contract, making a big sale, or turning your annual income into your monthly income

- Being immature and impatient causes great delays in getting to your dream

- How entitlement can creep in—and we’re like, “How dare this thing happen when I’m on purpose and headed for greatness in my life?”

- We have to learn to function within the reality of our dream

- Our behavior with small things is being tested for our behavior with big things

- Why you shouldn’t drop down into a lower energy just because something isn’t fun or exciting to do—you must bring your energy back up to where you’re a king or queen in your own life

Nothing moves until you speak. Your words are so powerful, you’re either speaking life into something, or you’re speaking death into something. There’s no middle ground.

If you’re complaining, causing problems, being disagreeable, or bitter about the fact that you have to do something—or frustrated because you’re in a test period for whatever you’re doing—then you’re not being psychologically mature in order to be great.

When you’re showing up whiny, check yourself. What’s going on in your mind? Do you think you’re too good for it? Do you think it’s beneath you? Identify your energy around the mundane things in your life, so that you can experience the exact place of your next level of growth.
