1 a.m. Eastern Standard Time Wednesday April 30th. What’s going on? Good to see everybody. 

0:12

Good to see everybody. See some major players here too. Hey guy, what’s going on bud? You enjoying your two-week two months of summer?

0:24

Just playing with you Because I did the upgrade on my phone, it’s not recognizing my face anymore.

0:34

That’s making me nervous. Vanessa says she’s on here gonna start the call, but I don’t see her.

1:07

Okay, maybe she gets on now. Hey, Thomas, good to see you buddy.

1:19

We’re gonna go over a couple things today.

1:21

Some of it you’re gonna, some of it you’ve you know, a lot of you because I know a lot of you’ve been with me for a while.

1:27

Maybe I’ve heard some of it before, but it’s a it’s it’s it’s necessary for the process. Necessary for the process.

1:37

Hey, normal, what’s on hold on? Anybody else having issues with their latest iphone update. I had another friend of mine, who had to turn in his whole phone. I had to swap out his entire phone after it made me nervous. I got too many crypto wallets on my phone, you know what I mean? All right, we’re letting a few people get in and we’re gonna get started here. Summer hadn’t started yet. Well, man, I wanted to do a me and a friend of mine we’re gonna do like kind of a road trip vacation. We’re gonna go from Deadwood all the way to Vegas, right? I just kind of wanted to see the West and there’s a couple things I haven’t seen out that way and we looked at renting a car to do it. It’s outrageous. They wanted $6,500 to rent a car for two weeks I guess because we’re not returning to the same city. It was absolutely outrageous.

3:08

So we’re thinking of different ways of doing it now. All right.

3:15

All right, we’re going to get started. All right.

3:19

Well, to start, as most of you all know, I do things a little bit differently.

3:25

And it’s not that I do it differently.

3:27

I do it the way I learned myself through 30 plus years of sales through going through the car business running my own business for the last 25 years not having really a boss or someone to answer to.

3:41

I haven’t had an alarm clock in 25 years.

3:43

I learned a lot of lessons.

3:45

I only wish I had an Uncle Syd that I could’ve went to and asked some of the hard questions.

3:51

Now, don’t get me wrong, I had some mentors over the years that I was able to go to, but I never had just one person that I knew for a fact to set me straight.

4:00

I needed somebody to tell me yes or no, right or wrong.

4:05

you’re doing the right thing or the wrong thing, right?

4:09

And to be honest with you, and I’m just giving you a little bit of my personal information here, my father was so conservative that he was the last guy you wanted to go ask any advice from.

4:20

I mean, you wouldn’t, you know, literally, he thought I was, you know, getting in the car business with 100% commission, he thought I was a psychopath.

4:31

He’s like, dude, you can go work at a nice restaurant.

4:33

I mean he was talking like McDonald’s when he said restaurant and you’re guaranteed a paycheck. He completely didn’t understand that, right? So, through the years, I did have several mentors. In fact one of my mentors is even a customer of mine today on a jeep page that I do with Facebook, right? It was fortunate, but I won. I really wish I would have had something like this so that’s what we’ve put together here for you now there’s going to be a lot of benefits to this group, this select few, but there’s also going to be weekly training.

5:09

Now with the weekly training, I’m asking everybody on here, hang on, let me, I got some more slides.

5:16

I’m asking everybody on here to commit.

5:19

Now when I ask you to commit, I’m not asking you to commit forever, but I am asking you to commit for 12 months, at least 12 months.

5:28

And in those 12 months, I’m going to take you down the path, right? I’m on the same time frame mark. I’m gonna take you down the path except I’m a little younger. I’m gonna take you down the path of getting your feet on the ground where your head needs to be where you need to be right and wrong okay. Fair enough.

6:01

I need each and every single one of you to at least commit to me for at least 12 months because , well, I don’t want to get ahead of myself but I need you to commit to me for at least 12 months.

6:12

Also in addition to that I need you to commit to maybe doing some things or seeing some things or trying some things that you don’t feel comfortable with or you don’t agree with first, right? What I’m basically saying is I’m asking for you to get a little bit out of your comfort zone. Here’s all I ask in return. I’m not always going to agree with you. I’m not always going to yes, yes, yes, you and tell you great job.

6:55

If I think you’re doing something a little bit off or wrong, I’m going to tell you, I’m going to bring to you the best advice and direction that I can possibly give you.

7:07

It doesn’t mean I’m going to agree with you every single time.

7:10

And I don’t want to step on anybody’s toes and offend people.

7:14

But my job here and what you’re committing to and what each and every one of you I hope are wanting to get out of this right is to move along and to move forward okay? So, right now I’m going to also ask that everybody be super proactive if you sit back on your hands if you don’t pay attention to these if you kind of You’re not going to get a lot out of it, and you’re probably wasting your time.

7:54

I’m asking for every one of you to nerd up a little bit, sit in the front of the class.

8:02

It’s funny you say that, Thomas.

8:03

Thomas says, where do we post our commitment?

8:05

I’m going to ask you to commit right here, right now.

8:10

I want each and every one of you in the question box, if you’re ready to go on this venture with me, if you’re ready to go to the next step, I’m going to ask each and every one of you to publicly commit right now.

8:25

All right. Now, listen, I get it.

8:29

It gets harder to change.

8:30

It gets harder to listen.

8:32

It gets harder to get out of your comfort zone the older we get.

8:38

Because we know what worked for us in the past.

8:46

But I know that each and every single one of you are committing to get better.

8:55

The forges we just what we call this program it’s what we call this program all right I see a few of you there’s there’s there’s several more of you I know some of you are on iPad or maybe even in the car but I’m gonna ask for each and every one of you to commit right now yeah I see Jacob Gary guy and Steve Thomas Steve Steve says I commit but I’m old as **** well they say the best time was ten years ago the second best time is right now all right all right all right good all right let’s move forward so everybody everybody’s understands you know I always always say Roger that receive that message everybody understands that my intention, my direction, what I’m here to do, right, is 100% to only help you grow or overcome any wall or obstacle that stands before you, right?

10:17

And to help motivate or inspire different ways to approach or to ask or to negotiate business, okay?

10:31

Is that fair?

10:34

All right.

10:35

Everybody knows that I have 100% humble and respectful approach here, but understand it is gonna sometimes you know, I’ll never try and publicly humiliate somebody by no means, but it’s not always agreeing with perhaps what you’re doing, and I need you to have an open heart and an open mind to step out of the comfort zone and possibly grow, okay?

11:04

That’s what I can promise you weekly training.

11:07

Now, we’ve got a lot of other things that are gonna be packed into this that’ll make it the value immense, right?

11:16

And Vanessa, have we already put that on a page so they can see some of that stuff?

11:20

I know Brian- Yeah, I’m still building the members area.

11:25

I should have everybody’s credentials emailed out to them.

11:28

Hopefully by the end of day Friday we should have it.

11:31

All right, I know we had a lot going on and we’re going to continually be packing this thing with value over and over and over and over in addition to having even private exclusive contests that are only within the Forge members right and and each one each and every one of you know that we get pretty wild with these contests sometimes because it’s it’s it’s fun to compete to be honest Right. All right. Let me ask you this real quick.

12:05

Let me ask you this real quick: what percent of business or entrepreneurs Stephen succeed good answer Donald Good answer Thomas Good average number there mark They say two and a half to ten percent, but it’s less than ten percent Right and a lot of you got that right, but what’s scary about that?

12:38

Here’s what’s terrifying.

12:41

The ones that commit, I totally agree with that, Stephen.

12:44

Steve, 100%, right?

12:47

One out of 10.

12:49

That means odds are against you.

12:51

Odds are against you.

12:57

Now, I wanna ask everybody this.

13:00

What is it you think that one person did differently than the 10?

13:05

What do you think the one person did differently than the 10?

13:09

Were they just born on a better day?

13:13

I’d love them a little bit more.

13:15

What is it?

13:17

What did the one have that the other nine didn’t?

13:25

All great answers.

13:29

Never gave up.

13:31

I committed, stayed with it, took massive action as part of it.

13:35

Desired dedication and determination.

13:39

Very good response from Mark, understood that they were in the marketing and their business rather than delivering their thing.

13:49

I get exactly what you’re talking about.

13:51

Commitment, consistency, perseverance, right?

13:57

I like to say, you know, just speaking honestly from my experience, I was too dumb to quit.

14:05

If I was smarter, I would have quit so fast, right?

14:10

I mean, I hate to say that, but there were times where, man, I mean, I just was a glutton for punishment.

14:16

like some of the situations over the years that I found myself in, I mean, I should have ran and hid, right?

14:26

It’s humbling, tumbling, but I always knew no matter what, one day I was gonna, I knew it was my thing. I knew it was my thing. I knew I had that fire, that burning entrepreneurial fire.

14:42

I always had entrepreneurship in my spirit, but I had that fire burning where really failure was not an option, to be honest.

14:50

I didn’t know what I was going to succeed with, but I just knew that I wasn’t going to fail, right? Well, here’s the truth. I did fail.

15:01

Failed at a lot of things, but kept my eye on the ball and connected with the ball on a few things, right?

15:13

So don’t, you know, Obviously, I’m not telling y ‘all anything.

15:17

Some of y’all are older and wiser than I am.

15:19

But don’t jump off a cliff over one thing, right?

15:25

If you want it, you’ll get it.

15:28

But sometimes you gotta massage things.

15:30

Sometimes you gotta move the pieces around a little bit.

15:33

Sometimes you gotta do a little bit of a dance with it, right?

15:43

And that’s how you become the one out of 10.

15:47

All right. And we already thought about that.

15:49

So I’m not going to do that right now.

15:53

A lot of you I know in other past courses and other past experiences we’ve had together.

15:59

We’ve talked about mindset versus process.

16:02

So just in case you haven’t heard it, I want to go back over it real quick with a great process and a bad mindset.

16:13

Will you be successful?

16:22

Absolutely not. Absolutely not.

16:27

Now, with a great mindset, and a less than average process, can you be successful?

16:37

Absolutely. I think we’ve lived that ourselves, right?

16:41

We didn’t always have the greatest process, right?

16:44

But you and I would call each other and talk to each other and have a heck of a mindset about it.

16:51

So that goes to prove right now we know without question that mindset is a thousand percent more powerful than process ever will be.

17:08

And let’s take that a little bit deeper real quick, right?

17:11

So if you’ve got the right mindset, a winner’s mindset, right?

17:17

Sometimes, and I’m guilty of this, but I know a lot of you are also, you get so hung up on the process, just because you bought a product doesn’t mean it has to be included in your business.

17:29

You can cut the fat, but you’re trying to perfect the process so much that you never get started, right?

17:37

You never get moving forward.

17:39

You never take action.

17:40

You overwhelm yourself analysis paralysis or whatever they call it, right?

17:46

Because you’re focusing too much on the absolute one thousand percent perfect process, so over the next 12 months we’re not going to do so much work on process because we’ve already established that mindset is more powerful than the actual process everybody agrees Everybody understands what I’m talking about.

18:15

I know you are all already committed, so let’s keep moving forward.

18:21

Roger that, awesome.

18:24

Absolutely, loud and clear, yes sir, yep.

18:29

We’re gonna have to start making moves and not making excuses, right?

18:33

And I’m gonna talk a little bit about excuses because we’ve all done it.

18:37

Like, anybody, you know, I’ll, you know, in sales or in closing people or when I jump on the phone and talk to one of your clients, you know, I’ll get kind of a persona of confidence, but don’t think I haven’t failed and don’t think I haven’t been shut down, right?

18:56

Right?

18:59

So yes, they’ll be recorded.

19:01

I do ask in this particular commitment, make sure if you’re not on here live, which I’d prefer for you to be live, but I know life gets in the way, make sure you watch the recordings because we’re gonna move.

19:16

There’s a certain roadmap here that we’re gonna go through if you get disconnected for a week or two it’s gonna sound like Chinese when you come back okay all right so I want everybody to look at this real quick hang on let me move my question box around these are seven steps that will keep you poor or broke let’s go over real quick tell yourself money isn’t important, right?

19:58

You got to understand, you know, I mean, can you imagine making so much money that it’s not important?

20:07

I’m not saying I’m not trying to sound.

20:11

I’m not trying to sound like making money is not a necessity. Right?

20:16

I know a lot of guys are like this. I mean, you look at your banking account, right?

20:19

And if it’s growing, you tend it definitely has a direct effect on your mood right nobody wants to to go into the to the to the poor house so to speak right nobody wants to be in a declining revenue situation right but you do have to understand that money at some point is only a tool right what is it a tool for what is it a tool for it’s a question by the way i’ll tell you what it’s a tool for me it’s a tool for freedom Because ultimately, in my life, true success is not how many employees you have, not how many, you know, how much money you have, not, you know, how hot your girlfriend is.

21:23

You know what I mean?

21:24

It’s 100% about freedom.

21:31

Okay?

21:32

Here’s another one.

21:33

Spend all your money, treat yourself now, worry later.

21:37

How many people do this?

21:40

How many people do this or have done this?

21:42

I think most of us have probably gotten old enough that we’ve learned this rule already, but it needs to be said.

21:52

Sometimes, you know, times in my life where maybe out of, maybe not depression or boredom, I don’t know what to call it, but you know, you tried to put band-aids.

22:03

I know when I was in the car business, Man, I would go out on my day off and spend a couple grand wherever, whatever, but it was stuff that I wanted, but didn’t really need.

22:15

I really think I was doing it almost like shop therapy or retail shopping therapy, whatever.

22:28

It’s a poor mindset, right?

22:32

It’s a poor mindset.

22:33

And when you get a control that in fact you have to get a control that when you get control that that’s when you’ll start seeing the you’ll come out of turn three right you’ll start seeing everything in your life changing right I mean it’s it’s funny if you get the right mindset I literally get the same gratification paying off a credit card as I do going and buying something now like I get just as much you know I I feel like I’m out there spending and buying new things, buying stock or crypto, right?

23:12

I get the same, the same endorphin rush, right?

23:17

And what do you think’s healthier?

23:19

Investments, paying off credit cards, or going and buying another coffee maker?

23:23

You know what I mean, or whatever, right?

23:28

So make sure that you respect money, because when you quit respecting it, it quits respecting you, and it will leave you.

23:35

Number three, this is huge, this is huge.

23:40

Now, I’m gonna ask all y ‘all, be humble with this because sometimes there’s not somebody there pointed out when you’re doing it and you do it unconsciously.

23:52

You have to take this responsibility.

23:56

You have to move forward on this and remind yourself and you have to be your your your biggest your own best biggest critic right blaming everyone else for your problems blaming everyone else for your problems this is such a pet peeve of mine there’s certain webinars or certain uh uh podcast i can’t even listen to if i hear somebody sit there you know, victim, you know, be the victim. And it’s common. It’s common.

24:33

They’re vampires out there, right? They’re emotional vampires.

24:37

They’re out there sucking the life out of you.

24:41

But when somebody takes that victimhood mentality where they blame everyone else for their own problems, they don’t take responsibility, that’s that one single pivot right there can change your life Immediately, immediately, but you have to be your biggest critic and I’ll tell you why you have to be your biggest critic because nobody else is really going to point that out to you.

25:08

You’re going to have to notice it yourself.

25:10

You’re going to have to realize it on your own.

25:19

In reality, not to be dark, but in reality, nobody cares about you more than you.

25:25

Nobody cares about you more than you, and they care about themselves before you.

25:32

So you have to take responsibility.

25:35

If something doesn’t go your way, it’s because you’re not doing it right.

25:40

Something doesn’t go your way, it’s because you didn’t protect yourself and you allowed whatever it was to happen.

25:47

That’s in relationships, that’s in businesses, that’s in friendships, it’s in marriages, that’s in everything so that’s important very very important fourth thing expect others this is kind of part of that government your boss anyone to take care of you I used to laugh when people go man I could you know I had buddies that would you know had jobs and like selling fire sprinklers or any of that kind of stuff and you know they thought I was a psychopath because I took 100% commission, right?

26:21

I’d make 20 or 25, 30% commission on whatever I was selling.

26:26

But they had big salaries, right?

26:30

They had big salaries, but they got bonuses.

26:33

I would laugh because, you know, about twice a year, you know, I’d have to listen to my buddy crying that, you know, they got screwed out of their bonus, right?

26:41

And I’m like, buddy, bonus, it’s a bonus to get a bonus.

26:46

Like, they already own you for that salary, right?

26:52

And they just hold you accountable to hit the numbers and they’re gonna pay you 1%.

26:57

And if you hit the numbers too long, then they’re gonna cut your territory in half, right?

27:02

Or rob you of your bonus to run you off because they’re paying you too much money.

27:10

They’ve got a number in their head that you’re gonna make and they’re gonna play the little game with arithmetic and you know math and all that stuff to where it hits around that number but if you clip them if you clip them too hard they’re gonna adjust that number they’re gonna cut your territory in half right and the reason why is because you’re expecting others to have their foot on the throttle to throttle your car well remember when we talked about freedom and that is not the to freedom you will have no freedom as long as somebody else is got their foot on your gas right Chico agrees here that’s my doggy but they have their foot on your gas so don’t expect others including your boss or your the government to take care of you all right number five if you don’t step out of comfort zone try harder right if you’re you know i get it as i get older energy becomes more of a commodity than ever right like i i find myself with less and less energy it seems like each and every year right but you got to reach down deep you got to find that energy you’ve got to learn to step out of your comfort zone willing to learn right if you’re green you grow if you’re ripe you and you got to be able to find the way to try harder right never settle for just where you are because greatness is on the other side of the wall what are you gonna do to open up your heart and to open up your life and to give yourself a chance for greatness because it can happen and trust me when I tell you this each in single every single one of you have not already maybe even had potential greatness in your life, but there’s more greatness to have, but you got to be willing to step up.

29:21

You got to sit in the front of the class, you got to try harder, and you definitely got to get out of your comfort zone. Cool? All right.

29:33

Some people, like a good friend of mine, are very successful guy.

29:40

I learned a lot from him actually, but the guy doesn’t invest money nowhere.

29:45

He didn’t invest it in himself, he puts, I guess, back in his business, but he doesn’t invest any money because he’s afraid, right? Intimidates him. He doesn’t understand it.

29:55

And I’m talking crypto in this scenario.

29:57

He doesn’t understand any, you know, there’s a lot of people who are like, oh, that crypto thing.

30:01

All they read is the headlines of any media that’s out.

30:05

And they’ve heard where people have lost their wallets or lost their, you know, got scammed out of crypto. And they think it’s all a scam.

30:13

In reality, we’ll talk a little bit more about this over the next few months, where in reality cryptocurrency is the most documented currency in the world.

30:30

There’s a blockchain ledger that shows you where each and every single transaction ever went. Can you say that about cash? Right?

30:40

Can you say that, you know, oh, they funded terrorism with cryptocurrency. Well, did they?

30:45

Because I think there was more cases of cash that funded terrorism than ever cryptocurrency you know why because cryptocurrency leaves a trail unfortunately a lot of people because they’re too old and stuck in their ways they fear investing money and where the world is today and the reason why is because they think it’s a scam are only for rich people how many people think they shouldn’t buy Bitcoin because it’s $95 ,000. I can’t afford Bitcoin.

31:23

A lot of people don’t even understand that you can buy partial Bitcoin.

31:27

A lot of people don’t know that you can buy what’s called sats or satoshis, right? Fractions of a Bitcoin.

31:34

In fact, a lot of stocks now you can also, right? Yeah, it’s blowing the yard right out my window.

31:45

But a lot of people don’t know that they can do that.

31:53

Brian says the wallet is what’s mine. I agree.

31:56

And I can show y ‘all, and we’ll talk about it in the future. I can show you ways to buy crypto where you don’t have to worry about a wallet. One.

32:05

Two, you don’t have to worry about a 10-word key that if you lose, you lose your crypto.

32:10

There’s easier, faster, safer ways that you can, and I don’t want to go all off on crypto today, but just, it needs to be said, there’s ways that you can still get into the crypto game Right now, without any of that, because because it’s evolved, it’s moved forward, it’s it’s getting simpler and simpler and simpler and easier and easier and easier and better and better and better.

32:34

Right.

32:37

Thomas said, are there penny stocks worth looking into?

32:41

Well, no, that’s that’s well, I mean, anything under three dollars is considered a penny stock, so I guess I do have some, but.

32:51

You know, listen, not to get derailed from what we’re talking about, but if somebody’s talking about a penny stock and you’re just now hearing about it, you’re too late.

33:04

That’s the truth, too late.

33:10

When I look at investing, just to lay it on the table here, when I look at investing, first off, I know I’m not a trader because more traders fail than entrepreneurs, right?

33:21

it’s designed to make you fail. I’m not a trader at all. What I am is an investor.

33:27

So, whenever I look at anything that I’m going to buy, I look at 12-month pictures, right?

33:33

So, I think this sector or this business is going to grow in the next 12 months.

33:40

Now, what I avoid at all costs is like certain medical stocks that, oh, it’s going to pass, it’s in the third phase and all this stuff, whatever.

33:52

I’m out.

33:53

I’ve never seen one, I mean, I’m sure there’s some people got lucky at some times, but you’re better off just to go scratch a lottery ticket.

34:00

And I’m not giving financial advice, I’m just telling you my honest opinion, okay?

34:06

Stay away from that kind of stuff.

34:08

All right, let’s stay focused here.

34:10

All right, last, do not take risk, which means get out of your comfort zone.

34:16

If you don’t try, then you can never fail, right?

34:20

How many people, maybe there’s some on this call, I hope not, but how many people do that?

34:28

I knew people like this, my dad was like this.

34:32

He wouldn’t try at something because he would rather not try it than to be known of failing at it.

34:44

Now remember, you yourself have to be your own biggest critic.

34:50

You yourself have to police yourself on this stuff because there’s a lot of things that people don’t try or attempt because they’re more ashamed of somebody saying, well, he tried, but he didn’t fail or he didn’t succeed.

35:08

How many things are you leaving off the table? How many things are you avoiding? How many things are you missing?

35:15

Because instead of potentially facing the embarrassment of that, let’s get somebody on a date.

35:24

Guys will never ask girls on a date.

35:25

You know why? Because they’d rather not fail.

35:31

It’s horrible. It’s a horrible mindset.

35:34

All right.

35:34

So that’s just seven little things that I wanted to go over, and a little bit of the mindset that we all need to process and understand before moving forward, all right?

35:51

Everybody with me on this? Roger that?

35:59

All right, cool. All right, all right, all right.

36:03

All right, we’re all on the same page. Great. All right, Steve.

36:07

Good. Be honest with me.

36:15

How many people have, um, are honest enough with themselves right now that they caught themselves doing one of these? Yeah, I mind. Be honest. We all have.

36:34

That’s the truth.

36:36

We all have.

36:39

We all have.

36:40

But the awareness of it is the twist that makes it all change, okay?

36:55

Makes it all change, right?

37:01

Reggie, you and me both, bro.

37:03

You and me both.

37:04

Okay?

37:07

All right.

37:17

Move my question box so I can see this a little better, but I’m on my laptop.

37:27

Being poor or average is all about mindset, not just how much money you have or don’t have.

37:33

Trust me, change the way you think and you can immediately change your life.

37:42

That’s the truth, what’s up?

37:46

Oh, I just had a cough.

37:48

Oh, I’m sorry, okay.

37:49

No problem, sorry to interrupt.

37:52

Yeah, but think about it.

37:56

Vanessa, have you caught yourself doing any of those things?

37:58

Oh absolutely yeah we’re all guilty of it times I mean you just have to reset refocus restart I mean I restarted a hundred times a day a thousand times you know yeah yeah all right now I want to ask everybody moving forward what’s what’s what’s the number one thing that you personally feel that you need to work on what’s the one thing I swear to God this guy can you hear this guy moaner outside my yard on my window no I don’t hear anything okay well I guess these microphones have gotten way better but uh yeah he’s literally like sounds like he’s been out there cutting just a little patch out my window the whole All right.

38:53

So, what’s one thing that you, one thing that you feel that you need to work on are one thing that you would like to get out of being in the forge, right?

39:11

What’s one thing that you know you need help in?

39:19

Steve says, I need help understanding the market and competitors.

39:23

Well, came to the right place.

39:25

Came to the right place.

39:27

Especially if it’s one of the opportunities that we’re going to present you, because I know we got a few lined up.

39:34

I’m going to put you at the front of the line with all that, guaranteed.

39:58

We went over that on the last call.

40:01

I don’t know if you missed it or not, but I’m not going to resell this on this call.

40:07

This is training.

40:14

mindset and becoming confident in a new industry, I’m going to help you there.

40:19

Reggie says I become impatient at times. Don’t we all? Right?

40:24

Well, why do you think you become impatient? Now, this is being honest, man.

40:30

You got to be your own, you got to be, you got to be your own biggest critic.

40:36

Why do you become impatient?

40:40

Insecurity of yourself not understanding what’s going on or perhaps insecurity of those around you right not getting results fast enough right nobody nobody wants to be on a day a diet for three weeks and the scale not move right we’re all that way well fortunately you’re gonna have that solve here right mindset confidence we’re gonna work on that Brian’s honest It says, I need to get out of perfecting too much.

41:17

That’s a problem we a lot of us have.

41:19

Focusing, you got to commit.

41:24

Steve says, clarity, too many shiny objects.

41:27

See, that’s what I think is beautiful about what we started here, right?

41:35

We’ve already told you that we’ve got three different opportunities coming before you.

41:40

We just came off of a massive, massive successful campaign.

41:45

right? The ERTC, right?

41:51

So in reality, I mean, I’m not telling you to ignore their opportunities because you always got to be on the hunt.

41:59

However, you’re going to get all the objects that you need right here in the Forge.

42:04

You’re going to get all the objects or business bottles that you need right here with Brian and myself.

42:11

And you’re not going to need anything outside this proof and proof and point which one of them paid 20 something million dollars in commissions in the last three years because if they didn’t hit that and they shouldn’t even be on the potential suspect list we did we proved it and we’ve got even better opportunities coming so get excited Get excited.

42:43

In addition to that, we understand that with certain opportunities, a lot of them fall apart because they’re not properly supported.

42:51

Well, guess why I’m here.

42:54

That’s why me, myself, Vanessa, the whole support team, that’s why we’re here.

43:00

To support you and to have those answers, those questions, and to line you up and put you in the right direction to quickly, Reggie, right? Get results.

43:12

To cut all the fluff out, to cut all the meat out, to cut all the time wasted and wandering and, you know, waiting around and wandering.

43:22

We’re taking every single bit of that out of it.

43:30

Gary says, and Gary, I’ve known Gary for a long time, good friend also, getting past my concerns over what the other person thinks of, of what value I’m offering.

43:44

Well, that’s an easy one.

43:47

Anybody knows how to build value over price equals sell is uncle Syd.

43:53

So I will have, I will completely take care of that for you.

43:57

So rest is sure you’re going to have that in your golf bag and the ball and the pinball machine.

44:08

Okay.

44:10

Michael, all you gotta do is take responsibility of that.

44:15

and don’t let yourself get ping-ponged around, right?

44:19

Jim Harris says, can’t wait, Uncle Syd, nice.

44:23

Norma, I’m glad you said this, glad you said this, because this is what I struggle with.

44:31

And I’m not trying to call out anybody, but I know Norma very well also, right?

44:37

Structure, she says, I need more structure.

44:43

I learned a long, long time ago I can’t go into extreme detail, but y’all can imagine, if I don’t have structure, I get in trouble.

44:57

Like what’s fun to me, ain’t always things I need to be doing, right, especially when I was younger.

45:04

So I learned a long time ago, if I didn’t have structure, if I didn’t have something going on, and I was left to my own, my own mind coming up with what I need to do that day, it normally was something I didn’t need to be doing that day.

45:17

Ending up somewhere I didn’t need to be that day, right?

45:20

Making Jordan Belfort blush if he knew my story, right?

45:25

So, I agree.

45:27

I love more structure and listen, I mean, with a lot of the benefits that we’re throwing into the forage, it’s going to have more value with that alone.

45:39

The reason why I committed to all of you to do a weekly call for the next 52 weeks, that’s a lot of calls, that’s a lot of talking, it’s a lot of effort, it’s a lot of training, it’s a lot of structure, right?

45:57

The reason why I committed to that is because I also know how important structure is to get to the next level, to break down that wall in front of you.

46:07

And I’m willing to sacrifice a year of my life, you know, we don’t get too many of those in this world.

46:15

to give that to each and every one of you.

46:18

And even if just Wednesday at 11 o ‘clock, if you could just work your life and your schedule around being that structured for one day, it will help you tenfold, much less if you got to the point where you can structure yourself every day.

46:35

Unfortunately, I can’t be there every day, but I can once a week, okay?

47:11

You know, I can’t, not until they’re ready to, you know, we test everything, man.

47:15

We test everything ready.

47:17

I can’t, but we got some super hot opportunities.

47:24

Wait, I wouldn’t say I wouldn’t, you know, there’s going to be a little bit of a different challenge in the RTC because the RTC was giving away free money but it still had challenges right it’s still you still had to overcome some objections right the difference is imagine if you still got paid on the RTC a little bit not as big but imagine if you still got paid on every deal you did with the RTC today that’s gonna be the biggest difference and and one of the big opportunities we’re working on okay and it’s and Vanessa we’re pretty close on it right I mean it’s gonna be within weeks I think we should be able to we’re looking for retail beta testing the end of May opening it up to agents the first or second week of June we’re right there yeah it’s weeks away it’s weeks away and be honest with you, it’s one of the coolest ones.

48:31

The best part is each and every one of you is gonna save a ton of money on it just by being in the fort.

48:37

All right. Yep. All right. Let’s see what else we got here. All right. Who’s ready?

48:46

Is everybody ready to move forward with this? Are you committed?

48:49

I need you to publicly commit. If you’re not committed, it’s okay. I’m not upset with you.

48:53

I ain’t mad at you.

48:54

I’ll still help you if I can when I can, but I need, I need a hundred commitment all right I see let’s go ready good who else awesome Norma Gary Jacob mr.

49:18

Lee let’s roll right Reggie Steve okay all right with respect of everybody’s time I understand ready to rock and roll absolutely Vince I say that a lot. My uncle says a lot of why. All right.

49:39

Listen if life gets in the way and understand 11 a.m.

49:42

Wednesday is not perfect for everybody but it’s perfect for most of us. I’m asking you to commit.

49:49

If you can be here live it’s way more valuable than if you listen to the recording.

49:53

Not that you can’t get away with the recording every once in a while but it’s nice to be able to ask a direct question that can get answered right in. And it’s getting answered by me live, living and breathing.

50:05

So we know that we’re going to actually answer your question.

50:08

I know sometimes when you have to email in something such as a support ticket or something, you get a response and it might not have completely answered your question because it’s a written response.

50:18

I like live bodies answering my stuff. Right.

50:21

And you get that with us.

50:23

That’s what you get on these calls.

50:24

So that’s what makes Wednesdays at 11 a.m. Eastern Standard Time lives that much better.

50:34

Do you agree?

50:36

Absolutely.

50:37

All right.

50:38

Vanessa, you got anything last thing that we need to talk to and you’re getting up the, you said before the end of the week, we’ll have the members area and everything.

50:45

Okay.

50:45

Yeah, and this will be our first recording.

50:49

Very, very, very cool.

50:50

All right, Jim, looking forward to it also, man.

50:53

All right, see you everybody.

50:54

Thank you so much.

50:56

I appreciate you.

50:56

Yep, bye.
