life. Today is the day we'regoing to talk about how things get
(00:42):
done. We've talked aboutgetting prepared. We've talked about
the mindset and the structurewe need. We talked about that. There's
nobody preventing you. There'sno gatekeeper. There's no barrier,
only the story in your mind.You don't need anyone's permission,
you don't need anyone'sagreement to either become what you
want to become or build thebusiness you want to build. Like
(01:02):
you have a dream of changingthe world. I know you do. Maybe your
world is 10 people. Maybe it's100. Maybe it's a thousand. Maybe
it's $100,000 business. Maybeit's a million dollar business. Maybe
10 million. None of those areimpossible. All of those are doable
and within your grasp. And ittakes a process to get there. We
don't live in a Harry Potterwand world where he goes and a little
(01:26):
pink, you know, stream comesout and boom, there's a pile of gold.
We don't live there, okay? Orat least I don't know how to do that.
But I do know how to createanything I want. And I do it all
the time. I'm on a mission toreach 300 million people. And you
know what? I'm going to reachit. I've got six weeks left. I'm
going to make it. We're goingto reach 300 million people with
the message of whipos. Worth,identity, possibility, ownership,
(01:49):
sovereignty. That combinationmeans you can create anything you
want. You've heard me say thata hundred times or a thousand times.
This is episode 1000 andsomething, right? And it's true.
It's true every time I say it.And it will be true forevermore.
We know from physics, ourthoughts change the probability distribution.
Our thoughts make thingshappen. And it doesn't happen as
fast as we want. Like we couldsay, oh, boom, here it is and there's
(02:11):
a box of gold bars on theporch or health, boom, suddenly I'm
healed. Sometimes thathappens, but that's pretty rare.
So what we're going to talkabout today is actually how do things
Happen. Okay, so what we'regoing to give you what I'm going
to give you today. And here'sthe promise. I'm going to promise
to give you tools that willwork. It will set you up every day
(02:33):
to be powerful. It will makeyou keep your promises or help you
keep your promises. It willhelp you deliver what you promised
to yourself. You're going todeliver. The promises to yourself
are the most important. Sothere's principle one of the how
of the how. The promises youmake to yourself are the most sacred
words you utter in theuniverse today and every day, period.
They're more important thanany other promise. Because if you
(02:55):
can't keep your promise toyourself, what you say to others
is always subject tosuspicion. And you will disagree.
You will say, no, I keep mypromises to other people, but I don't
keep them to myself. You'relying. If you don't keep your promises
to yourself, you keep themmaybe to other people, but it is
performative. It is not withintegrity. It is not with your full
(03:18):
heart and soul. Your promisesto yourself, your integrity to yourself
is job one, always andforever. So do that. So let's learn
about how to do that. Here isa daily playbook I'm going to give
you a daily playbook you canrun in 60 minutes that will set you
(03:38):
up for delivering today. Stepone. I'm going to tell you a story.
There was a day I took the dogfor a walk, and this was some years
ago in Phoenix. And we livedacross the street from a development
that was going in. And it wassome years after that big 2008 crash.
(03:59):
That's 17 years ago. But itwas some years after that. And so
the development had come to acomplete screeching standstill. And
the streets were in, and therewere some show homes built, but nothing
happened for a long time. Andso I used to go walk in there in
the morning for like an hourwith the dog all over the place.
And one morning I got up to gofor a walk and it was a great day.
(04:22):
I got up, I did some, youknow, personal things. I didn't have
the powerful morning ritualthat I have today, the invincible
powerhouse that puts me inOlympic level form. But I had something
and I was out for a walk. Andas I went for a walk, I got an email.
And the email was a disaster,or at least I thought it was. I interpreted
it, interpreted it as adisaster. Boom. Wrecked something.
(04:43):
And then I got a phone call,another disaster. And then I got
another one. And it were likeFour things, maybe five, one after
another, that were hugedisappointments. This fell through,
that wasn't happening. Andjust on and on, right? And it was
so heavy, it was so heavy onme. I sat down on the curb and I'm
(05:04):
in this development walkingaround, but there's nobody there.
It's all empty lots and a fewfences up and stuff. And over there
in the distance, it was a bigdevelopment like a mile by a mile.
So the show homes were faraway. But anyway, I sit down on the
curb and I wanted to start tocry. Literally. It was affecting
me that powerfullyemotionally. And then, and then,
you know, of course I've gotthis dog with me, right? And the
(05:25):
dog's out for a walk, so itdidn't want to sit down. And then
it sees a rabbit, dog sees arabbit jumping around, trying to
chase the rabbit andeverything else. And I thought, how
funny. The dog and I were bothhere in this very same space. And
I am like sucking wind, I amhurting. And the dog, he's not having
(05:46):
any of it. He's jumping aroundhappy. And I thought, wait a minute,
if, if we're sitting here onthe same place, well, the dog wasn't
sitting, but I was. And thedog's jumping around, then it isn't
anything except it's in here.It's a dance in my head. So then
the thought came to me andthought, okay, if I can go from just
(06:07):
top of the world to bottom ofthe barrel in five minutes with a
few messages, then I canretrace that. I can go back the other
way. I can not do that becausethe whole dance is in my head, right?
And the dog, he's not havingany of it. So that was the thing
(06:28):
that started, started me onthis whole quest of creation. More
intentional and powerfulcreation because I created the misery.
And yeah, I got some eventsthat happened. Some, an email and
some phone calls and thingsstuff happened. But I allowed that
to smash me down to face inthe gutter, you know, emotionally
(06:52):
destroyed, end of the world,doom scrolling doomsday, all that
stuff. And I thought, now waita minute, if that can happen in one
direction, it can happen inthe other direction. So that got
me thinking seriously aboutsome questions. And here are the
questions. Okay, questionnumber one. What am I believing that
(07:12):
gives this feeling, power?Well, that was easy to identify.
I believe that I'm doomed. Theworld is ending. The failure of these
things, clients fallingthrough, it's going to mean financial
something. Oh no, I'm in asomething something. I don't Remember
the details of them now. Butthat's what I was believing. It means
(07:32):
death financially or careerwise or embarrassment or something.
It means terrifyingconsequences. Now, I don't know that's
true because all I got was amessage that this thing isn't happening.
But I interpolated that andwent on to, you know, death of some
sort, right? Failure, andthen, you know, reflection on me
and all the rest of the thingsthat that means. And so I thought,
(07:54):
actually, I don't know what itmeans, but what I'm believing is,
this is catastrophizing. Sothen the next question was, okay,
is it true? And the answer is,well, I actually don't know. What
I know is true is I got anemail, I got a phone call. That's
what I know is true. I knowthe contents of the call, at least
(08:18):
right now, are this thing Iwas depending on isn't happening.
And there were several. So foreach thing, it isn't happening or
not happening the way Iwanted. That's all I actually know.
So what I was believing is,and it means financial catastrophe
or embarrassment or failurehere. And I was taking this lever,
(08:41):
this, this inflection pointand catastrophizing, jumping off
a cliff with it. So the answerto the question, is it true? Well,
it's true right now in thismoment, that I got an email that
says X or a phone call, boththat I know is true. Does it mean
all these other things?Actually, I have no idea. I don't
(09:02):
know if it means that. Well,that lowered the pressure a bunch
because other things couldhappen. Right? Then the next question
is even more fun. What elsecould I believe? Well, I could believe
this is a good thing. I can'tsee how that's true. I could believe
it's a neutral thing. I couldbelieve it will change in a minute,
(09:22):
that if I make a phone calland do some things, I might be able
to adjust. I could believethat. Wow. I could. Sometimes it's
hard to do that because ifyou're in the middle of a real catastrophe,
it's hard to say, what elsecould I believe and see past the
ingrained belief? So there'sanother way to ask that question.
We all have people that werespect and admire and to ask, what
(09:45):
would so and so believe here?And if you pick, you know, your favorite
superhero or some otherperson, you know, that's doing really
well, who, who metabolizesthese things and says, what's the
gift here? You know what theywould be thinking? They would be
thinking, how can I Fix this.They would be thinking, why can this
be good? They would bethinking, what can I create from
(10:05):
this? I couldn't createotherwise. You know that because
you know them. So if you can'tdo it yourself, then use someone
else as a proxy. And the nextquestion is, what would they do with
that thought? Or what would Ido with a new thought? Well, I'd
make a phone call, I'dregroup. I. I internally realize
that it really isn't the endof the world. Like a nuclear weapon
didn't fall on my house, jetengines not in my front yard. People
(10:28):
aren't dead and dying. Sothere's lots of things. So you get
the process. What am Ibelieving that gives us power? Okay,
is it true? What else could Ibelieve? If I believed one of these
other things, what would I doright now? And then take that action.
Even though you don't knowwhat the outcome is, that is an immediate
(10:48):
and powerful. And it worksevery time. Foolproof path out of
that catastrophizing. So I didit in that particular case, in five
more minutes, maybe it was 10,took me five to get down, maybe 10
to back up. I realized thatthere were some things I couldn't
control right now at all, andI couldn't do anything about them.
But there were several thingsthat I could do right this minute,
(11:10):
or as soon as I got home fromthe walk to find out more, to mitigate,
to make some changes, or tofind the gift. I did it. It worked.
And from there, I've createdthis entire curriculum and process
about the truth of creatingyour life. So that is a set of steps.
Now I want to go over with youwhat I do. And this is again the
(11:34):
how of the how. This is thenitty gritty. Every single day when
I get up, here's what I do. Igo through a DCP daily creation process.
Here's what it consists of.But before I tell you that, let me
tell you the outcome. Theoutcome is I get more done. I make
more money. I live happier andmore joyfully. Okay? And I live this
(11:57):
ultimate life purpose,prosperity and joy. It wasn't always
that way. I lived behind theeight ball before expecting failure,
catastrophizing every event,seeing the worst in things, chastising
myself all the time. Living inself loathing and hatred, like deep
hatred. And at different timesin my life, different depths of that
(12:21):
negativity. But I lived therefor decades, so I know deeply about
that. Struggling withdepression, it got to the point of
suicidal ideation and attemptseven so really, really dark places.
But my point is this. Here isthe process. Spiritual, physical,
emotional, mental. If I'mteaching you this, I said I'd give
(12:44):
you something you can do in 60minutes. So here's 10-10-10, four
blocks of 10 minutes to createyourself in a way so that you are
invincible. You keep yourword, you ship and deliver on time.
Whether that's product orservice or writing or if you're going
(13:05):
to a job, showing up and doingthe very best you can, performing
well, making cash, makingconnections and just living a kick
ass life. The spiritual I putfirst because it is the foundation
for me. We all know there'ssomething more. Call it your higher
self, call it God, call it theuniverse. I call it God. I have a
personal relationship. I haveseen God. I died and spoke with him
(13:28):
in 2018. But your ideation ofthat is yours and own it. So own
it. And here's the key. Dosomething in that 10 minutes to deepen
that connection. It might beprayer, it might be meditation, it
might be stillness, it mightbe reading some sacred literature.
It might be reaffirming yourown worth. Now I have a process called
(13:52):
a ptac. I'm not teaching thatright now today. But if you want
to know how to do it, it's ina book called Living with Purpose
and Power. If you don't havethis book, it's the best book on
the planet about how to findyour self worth, how to use it every
day and how to createmiracles. Best one there is. So get
it and read it and then dowhat's in it. Read it. Doesn't matter
(14:14):
unless you do what's in it. Sothe first 10 minutes is do something
that connects you spiritually.The next 10 minutes is do something
that wakes your physical bodyup. Even if you're going to go work
out later or do whatever, dosome stretching, do some breathing.
Wim hof breathing. If youdon't know what that is, look it
up. W I M H o f it is aparticular style of breathing that
(14:36):
wakes up your parasympatheticnervous system and gets you set for
the day. Or you can do boxbreathing, or you can do rectangle
breathing, or you can do allkinds of things. The point is, spend
10 minutes honoring thecontainer that holds your spirit.
The implementer of all thingsthat you think. The second or the
(14:57):
third thing is E spe isemotional. Send some messages of
love. Scroll through yourtexts. I'm not talking Facebook scrolling
or doom scrolling. Look attexts, look at messenger. If you
use it or WhatsApp orwhatever, and be inspired about messages
of love and connection. I dareyou. Spend 10 minutes sending. I
(15:21):
prefer voice notes becausethey're way more personal. But send
some notes of love, ofconnection, maybe of repair. Do that.
And the last is M. Mental.Pick up a book. I have 30 or so over
here in two great big tallstacks, you know, that are. I can't
even show how tall they are.Big stacks of books and more come
(15:42):
every day. Not every day, acouple times a week. And I read voraciously.
Why? Because I love thedifferent framings. I love the way
people express their ideas. Sothe goal here is, in that 40 minutes,
create yourself so that youare true. You are the being you want
(16:03):
to have show up. You're inOlympic form. One way I say that
is to enter spirit. Enterspirit so you can receive real power
because you're spiritualbeings. Don't leave that meditation
until you felt thatconnection. I don't leave my spiritual
part on any day, ever. And Imean this. I never skip until I've
(16:23):
heard the voice of Godreaffirming, reassuring, clearly
with me. Then name the thingyou want to do today. Okay. After
you've done these things, justpick the thing. What is the needle
mover today? Is it more phonecalls? Is it copy you need to write?
Is it a customer you need toserve? Is it a product you need to
(16:46):
think about? Is it an employeeyou need to work with? Is it a new
hire you need to do? What'sthe thing that you believe will move
the needle today? Then takethat thing and put it in your calendar
right now. Block the hour forme. If it's not in my calendar, it
doesn't happen. And it's notbecause I'm rigid. I'm very, very
(17:07):
flexible. But then I don'thave to think. It clears out my mind
for me. Everything's in thecalendar. I just have to look at
that. So when you'veidentified the thing that you think
will move the needle, most putit in the calendar so you're sure
you get it done. Sometimes Iuse three non negotiables. These
are the three things I'm doingtoday, no matter what. Boom. Because
(17:29):
I said so, and I've done this,I've thought, these are the things
I think will move the needle.They're not avoidant things. They're
not hiding things. They're notprocrastination things. They're the
things I really think willmove the needle. And when you're
in spirit and in state, whenyou've done your meditation and breath
work. Then you're most likelyto identify truth as opposed to deflections
and bullshit. More likely toignore the resistance, the pushback,
(17:53):
the naysayer, the kibbitzer,the internal critic, because you're
connected to your truepurpose. Okay, then here is a key
to getting started. Let's sayyou have to write something. And
I write a lot, so that's easyfor me to use as an example. And
maybe you don't. Maybe it'sother things. Then just start. Just
(18:14):
write. Put out a hundredwords, 200 words, 300 words, and
just say it's an ugly draft.I'm just putting down ideas. I'm
just saying it. There's plentyof dictation tools, so you can even
speak it. Start, start. Pickthe one thing or the three non negotiables.
I use three. But at least theone thing you think moves the needle.
(18:36):
Put it on the calendar. Put itfirst. Don't put it at the end of
the day when you're tired andworn out. Put it when you're fresh.
Do it right now. If you can,let you have another appointment
like do it now, do it first.Lock it on your calendar and just
start. Okay then. A secret isthat I use is like two timers. I
(18:58):
set a timer. I use 50 tens. If50 minutes is too long, I had a client
that used 25, five, whateverit is this means. Put your phone
away where you can't even hearthe buzz. No, no, no, no, no buzz.
And set the timer. So I take alittle timer and I set it for 50
and I just turn it upside downand set it here. Or I'll turn off
(19:20):
my phone and use the timer andI've made myself immunized to the
buzz. I don't care. I get somany spam calls anyway, I don't care.
I must be on a bunch of liststhat got sold. So I get marketing
calls and I never payattention. So in the phone buzzes
I don't even care. So I canuse my phone. But if the phone buzz
bothers you, get a differenttimer. Get them for three or four
bucks on Amazon. Set a 50minute timer, turn it over and sit
(19:43):
there. I'm going for 50minutes to do the thing that's going
to move the needle, even ifit's a rough draft. When I help people
write books, I always tellthem working title, working title,
working title. So you don'thave to get stuck on it. Everything's
work in progress till you shipit. So then go in for that 50, 50,
(20:03):
10. When that 50 minutes isup, the buzzer goes off, pick up
the 10 minute timer. I leaveto have two of them because one set
at 50 and one set at 10 I justput in my pocket and go for a walk,
break, walk away, stretch out,don't even think about it. Go outside.
If it's good weather, it's notminus 40 or raining and. Or walk
(20:24):
around the house, I'll go findJoy. I have an angel in the house
all the time anyway, so I'llgo find Joy and she's an angel and
smile and laugh and love herand she's just beautiful and she's
always just a holy being. SoI'll go do that for a few minutes
and when the 10 minute timergoes off, it goes off. I'll wind
down what I'm doing there in aminute and then come back and pick
the next hour. So that is afoolproof, bulletproof way to get
(20:47):
that thing started. Now maybeyou'll complete it in an hour and
maybe you won't, but whateveryou got done, lock it in. Okay? And
if it's done, ship it. Nosecond guessing, no whatever. If
it's an email or a salesletter you're writing or an invitation,
ship it, ship it, ship it.That's the deal with yourself. Then
you know you're keeping yourword to yourself. Because I can make
(21:10):
you a solemn holy promise.When you keep your word to yourself,
you can accomplish anything.When I said it, I did it is the truth
of your life. Nothing is outof your reach. And that is a powerful
eternal truth. So There is a60 minute block that you can use
(21:32):
to accomplish the thing everyday. The how of the how. Exactly.
How to do it. Now, at the endof that hour, after you've walked
your 10 minutes or so, andthese are all rough times, sit down
for a minute and debrief. Whatwent well? What did I do really good?
What makes me go, yeah, andwhat could I do better? And no drama,
(21:54):
no harm, no foul, no beat up,no criticism, just question what
might work better. And you maynot even know. You know, it may be
a hundred already. But if yougot distracted once, or if you got
lost in a train of thought andwandered around and did something,
that's okay. We're opportunityfor improvement. Because today is
(22:15):
about the how of the how. Allright, so let's go to the next thing.
Here's how to keep your focussharp, keep your engine running like
a high octane engine runningon, you know, 94 octane gas or your
body running on great food,great nutrition, and good sleep.
(22:36):
Okay, we're not going to talkabout eating and sleeping hygiene
today, although that's a wholeepisode in itself. But here's something
that you can do that will helpyou as you do this one hour block
or the next one, or the nextone. I don't do more than two of
those, maybe three in a rowbefore I go. Take a half hour and,
(22:58):
you know, just stretch andmove and do stuff, right? So don't
do too many of those becausethey are draining or they're demanding.
They're not draining ordemanding if you're doing stuff you
love, but they're notdraining. All right, so here's things
you do. Do a three breathreset. Three breaths might sound
(23:19):
like, not sound like much, butI can promise you if you stand up,
you stretch, and you do a verydeep breath in, completely full to
the top. And then I have afriend that says even when it's full,
then do another little pulland expand some little alveoli in
your lungs that don't normallyget puffed up. And then breathe it
(23:40):
out. Some people call it boxbreathing. 4 in, 4 hold, 4 out, 4
hold or rectangle, 6 in, 4hold, 6 out, 4 hold account, right?
It does something in yourbody. It activates your parasympathetic
nervous system, your vagalnerve. It resets. It gives you a
(24:02):
reset command and tension andworry drain out of your body. So
a deep breath all the way in,extra hold it and then hold it empty.
(24:34):
Now, the hold it empty partmight be hard at first, but I have
done some practice to where Ican breathe a certain way. This is
a Wim Hof breathing. Breathein deeply for three minutes, and
then I can hold my lungscompletely empty for a minute and
a half, 90 seconds. And if youhaven't tried that, that might be
(24:56):
really hard at first, but it'sokay. What you do is you teach your
body that it can actually usethe oxygen stored in it. And there's
all kinds of nervous systembenefits to that. We're not doing
that today. Look up Wim Hof.It's fun. All right, so there's a
practical exact thing. Setyour time up, set your day up with
your 40 minutes. Then pickyour mover, needle mover, block the
(25:19):
time, do that one thing, shipit, then debrief. Did you do good?
Did you get distracted?Whatever. A thousand likes doesn't
equal one conversation. Like,move into real action. All right,
so now we're going to talkabout some Accountability, things
(25:42):
that help you. So at the endof the day, maybe you do. You can
do it in the middle also. Buthere's some, here's some things that
I do and that you can do thatwill help you at the end of the day
or at your check in if you'regoing to do it at lunch. I like to
do it at lunch because my daysare extremely productive and so I
(26:06):
like to keep score a littlebit. And I don't write it down anywhere.
But I'll say, what did Icreate? What did I create? Well,
I got a podcast episode done.I conducted a coaching call. I did
a spectacular morning routineand put myself on cloud nine and
three quarters. Oh, that wasplatform nine and three quarters.
Harry Potter. I do that and Ido it every day and I love it. What
(26:30):
worked really well? What did Ilearn in my meditation? What did
I hear the voice of God tellme to do today? What was my intuition
by the time lunch gets here,often the messages that I've sent
out for love or repair ordeveloping relationships, I'll see
some answers. Look whathappened. Some acknowledgment at
(26:53):
least. Sometimes there's anappointment scheduled on the calendar
by then and I get to celebratesmall victories. So count your wins.
What did I create? What is my.What did I learn? Here's another
rubber meets the road thingthat I do. I look intentionally for
coaching. So I told you I have30 books over here and I'll read
(27:14):
a chapter or so in one or moreof them during my 10 minutes and
I look intentionally. How canthis help me? What is the coaching
here? Coaching. I am beingcoached in every moment. I have a
saying in my ptac, my personaltruth document that says I learn
from and get coached by eachperson in my path, in print, in a
(27:37):
Facebook feed, and I clean outmy feed. So the only things I see
are positive things. I get ridof everything else. I don't need
garbage. There's enoughgarbage that's available freely on
the news and just walkingaround. So I intentionally fill myself
with high power nutrition andtherefore I look for coaching. I
read somebody else's meme andI think, how does that apply to me?
(27:58):
Where's the gold here? Whatcan I do? I attended a mastermind
meeting yesterday and youknow, I haven't belonged to this
mastermind very long, coupleof months. And when I went in, I
wasn't sure. But what Idecided is I'm going to take notes
and I'm going to figure outsomething valuable. And you know
what I found 11 things in our90 minutes yesterday. I found 11
(28:21):
things in my notebook that Ican do, and I can't do them all at
once. And I'm not pretending,and I'm not behind the eight ball,
and I'm not saying, oh, no, Igot to do it all at once. That's
all nonsense. But I found 11possibilities, and they were exciting
and energizing. And as themastermind went on, instead of thinking,
when is this over? I wasthinking, wow, what else is there?
(28:42):
So I look for coaching all thetime. So what did I get done this
lunchtime? Check in for me.What did I learn? And what's the
next one thing? The afternoon?Or if I don't check in till night,
what's tomorrow's. But I do itat noon. So what's. What's the one
thing that I think will movethe needle? And move the needle might
(29:04):
be income. Move the needlemight be relationships. Move the
needle might be connections.But whatever it is, now, I can make
you a solemn promise. If youdo these things, your life will change.
You will be moving closer topurpose, prosperity, and joy. All
(29:24):
right, so let's get to somecommon derailments, things that get
in your way. Okay? One is lowenergy. Now, if you haven't had a
habit of doing this kind ofdiscipline and this kind of growth
and this kind of structure, itmight be difficult to start. Start
(29:46):
it all at once. So change onething at a time. Change one thing
at a time, because in a week,you've changed seven things. And
so it isn't necessary orappropriate or good or anything else
to do everything everywhereall at once. It's discouraging. It's
like going to the gym andsaying, I lift 100 pounds. I'm going
(30:06):
to do 500 today. Well, eitheryou're going to break something,
or you're just going to failand then tell yourself stories about
why you suck. Well, 1%, 3%.One thing. I'm going to do one thing
different, and then I'm goingto see what happened. And then one
more thing and one more thing,and that stuff stacks up so fast
(30:30):
you won't believe it, but somepeople still use it. Well, if I can't
do everything, I'm not goingto bother nothing. That's like the
diet thing. Well, I ate onecookie, so I might as well eat the
whole bag and a box of icecream. Well, you could, but you already
know where that road goes. Ihate myself. I suck. I'll never make
this. So why would you go downthat Road into that blind alley.
(30:51):
Right. All right, so thenanother hack is perfectionism. I
don't want to ship. Send theemail, the invitation, the conversation,
whatever it is, I don't wantto ship until it's perfect. Well,
first of all, you have no ideawhat perfect is. So that's a myth.
That's nonsense. Second,that's why I always use the idea
(31:16):
of working titles. Okay, shipversion 0.7. Right. You don't have
to get to version one. Itisn't going to be perfect. Anyway.
I wrote five books onmeditation in 2009. Okay. And they
were a series, the Meditationseries, Healthy Mind Institute. And
(31:37):
they dealt with how to domeditation and then how to apply
it in four different areas.Creating spirituality, creating personal
achievement, learning in thecreative process, health, healing,
and wellness. And you knowwhat? Ten years later, I put out
V2, revised edition. Were thefirst ones bad? No, I had just more
to say. And some add some addsto it. And so there's version two.
(32:00):
That was out a few years ago.How wonderful. V2. So perfectionism
is a joke. It is a myth. It isa lie. Nothing is perfect. You can't
get there. And tellingyourself that is baloney. That means
you're procrastinating. Thatmeans you're pretending. That means
you think you somehow have aperfect thing, and you don't. And
(32:21):
what you're really doing ishiding behind the idea that you're
afraid of ridicule. You'reafraid of failing. Failing. You're
afraid it won't work. Andguess what? There are ridiculers.
There are people for whom itwill fail. So just get that nonsense
out of your head and know thatthat's going to happen. And ship
for the ones that need it now.Because the version that you've got
now, whether it's a product, aservice, an email, a text, a marketing
(32:45):
campaign, or anything else, ora relationship repair attempt, I
need to find exactly the rightwords to make this apology or make
this approach or do thispresentation. No, you don't. The
answer is always. Ready, fire,steer. Ready, fire, steer. Because
you don't know what anyoneelse is thinking anyway. And you
can't know. So when youunburden yourself with the idea that
(33:06):
you're supposed to know,you're completely liberated to go
with what you got, and thenmake adjustments along the way. So
Nick's the perfection thing.The other thing is small accountability
things. Sometimes you hearthis story, too. You sit behind your
desk in isolation and you workall day long. And then you start
wondering, does it evenmatter? Am I shouting into the wind
(33:30):
that nobody's going to hearwith whatever your product or service
is, whatever you're doing. Andyou know, if you already go to a
job where you're with otherpeople, then you have, you know,
you've gotten over thatisolation thing. But one of the profound
and well documented effects ofCOVID was this isolation epidemic.
It ruined relationships. Ittook away our ability to talk and
(33:50):
connect. It damaged a wholegeneration of kids in terms of isolation
and absence from school. Andwe're still, you know, working on
making repairs to that. Sodon't be isolated. Schedule time
to connect. Now, me, I have ablessing. I have joy. I have joy
in Persona. I have an angelthat lives in my house. I can go
up and be with her. So guesswhat? We'll go run an errand. We'll
(34:14):
go somewhere, go to the bottledepot and take the bottles in. We'll
go to the recycle. I'll justgo up and sit in her office and ask
her what she's doing and howshe slept and whatever. I get up
a lot earlier than her sooften I don't see her till lunch,
right, Because I'm down hereworking. Or I may take a mid morning
break after one of the IF5010s. And part of the 10 is to go
(34:35):
find her, like I mentionedearlier. But connect with someone,
be open and share. Ask whatthey're doing. This isn't about you
monopolizing a conversationand making it about you. Get out
of yourself. What are youdoing today? How's your day going?
What went good? What went bad?How can I love you? How can I encourage
you? How can I lift and blessyour heart? Like, you'll be surprised.
(34:59):
What power there is in thatquestion for both you and for them.
All right, so here's yourchallenge to do a how of the how
sprint. You heard thisepisode? I dare you. I challenge
you. I beg you, I command you.Whatever voice works, right? Run
this daily creation for sevendays. The 40 minutes of your daily
(35:23):
creation in the morning, andthen this structure to get delivery
happening. Run it just like wetalked about. Run it for seven days
and then tell me what happens.I challenge you to tell me. I invite
you to. I'd love to share yoursuccesses. I invite you. Especially
(35:44):
if you're already doing thisand you're hitting on all cylinders
and you've got a process thatreally works. I'd love you. I'd love
to share it on the show. Get.Reach out to me and let's get you
As a guest on here. Becausemine isn't the only wisdom. I'm sharing
you with you. What I knowworks and what has caused me to write
20 books, put out an nearly ahundred songs, create multiple many
(36:04):
dollar coaching programs, youknow, create a very very successful
seven figure business. And soI invite you to, to listen to this
and don't dismiss it. If itdoesn't work for you exactly as described,
figure out your own. But thekey is do it. You have to ship it.
(36:27):
You have to ship it. Okay, sohere's what you track. You track.
Did you do the 40 minutes ofcreation 10-10-1010? If you use SPEM.
Spiritual, physical,emotional, mental. If you have a
different one then the metricis really simple. Did it work? People
say to me all the time, yeah,yeah, yeah, I have a daily, I have
(36:49):
a morning ritual, blah blahblah. And then I ask him a really
interesting question, does itwork? And they go what do you mean?
And most of them are doing asort of box checking exercise. Yeah,
I meditated. Yeah, I did this.Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's useless.
I'm totally useless. Workmeans did it deliver you to your
(37:11):
highest level of being? Did itdeliver you as the on fire divine
soul committed to yourmission? Grin on your face, fire
under your butt? Did itdeliver that for you? If it didn't,
your morning ritual sucks. Doit again, figure it out. Because
the whole purpose of that isto deliver the best you. So telling
(37:37):
me or yourself you've got aritual or some kind of thing is a
useless comment unless itworks. So the outcome did it work?
Did it deliver you on fire?Grin on your face, fired up and ready
to rock? That's what yourmorning ritual must do or it's garbage
(38:03):
because it didn't work. So myinvitation, if you want help, I can
give you one that works. I canhelp you create one that works for
you, not one that works forme. Because what works for me won't
work for you. So the key isdid it work for you? Okay, so track
(38:25):
the things, you track thedays. Did you pick your one thing?
Did you block it? Did youship? Did you pick it? Did you block
the time? Did you ship? And ifit's a several day project, then
did you get to the to thestopping point and count it as locked
and loaded, shipped right atthe end of, at the end of the week,
count your wins, figure out,figure out. And if you had a multi
(38:49):
day thing, is it shipped? Areyou willing to ship version 0.6 or
7 or 8? I'm I've got a reallycool 4K camera and their software
is still version 0 pointsomething and they're gradually creeping
up to 1 and so they're justacknowledging they're adding cool
stuff and doing it andthey're, you know, they update it
and eventually I think they'llget to version one. So here's your
(39:11):
invitation. Love yourselfenough to get good at this. Love
yourself to get your pride outof the way and do the things that
I have told you to do. Unlessyou're already hitting on all cylinders,
in which case you alreadyhave. You have a process. But if
you're only hitting on fivedays out of seven or three days or
one or two days a week, you'rebetter than that. You're worth more
(39:35):
than that. You're morepowerful than that. I need what you
have. So do a lot of otherpeople. So the how of the how is
the exact steps, one foot infront of the other to take. And I
have given you that today. I'mnot saying it's the only one, but
I can tell you it works. Ifyou want my help, reach out. There's
