So if you ve been with me for the last couple of episodes of intact. in all about the thought passed

and the mindset that you need to be six. Form, but in the mid stuff, that I had the opportunity to interview? One of my friends who is maybe the most successful business person. I know I sat down with Russell Branson, who is the founder and c o of click funnels if you're not de familiar. They are one of the biggest, if not the biggest company that exists, for helping online marketing entrepreneurs build bigger companies- Russell Spain it in interview much better than I do, but the point is This person has built a company from the ground up and not just built it to be, Lord of Successful, but wildly wildly successful so who better to ask about what success looks like because not only is Russell financially killing it, has been for a really long time here.

genuinely one of the best people I know like the best most humble kindness, most excited joy. Full about life, and I really want to know how he defined success and what he thinks- is necessary for the rest of us to have in our mindset to make us successful too. So I hope you dig, today's episode, if so be sure and take a screenshot tat made progress. Let us know if you thought, but this is my conversation with my body. Russell birds. Hi I'm Rachel Hollis- and this is my podcast. I spend? So many hours of every single week reading and listened podcast and watching Youtube videos and trying to find out as much as I can about the world around me and that's what we do on the show We talk about everything life

how to be an entrepreneur. What happened dinosaurs? What's the best recipe for fried chicken? What's the best plan for intermittent fasting? What's going on with our inner child house therapy working out for Whatever it is, my guests are into. I want to unpack it so that we can all understand these our conversations. This is information for the curious. This is the Rachel Hollis. I guess we have to start with who you are which I know is wild because it feels, like everybody, knows, You are in very specific industries, but I'm in a bag the Barrow listeners of the shell who have never met you before so well, you gave. I know you ve done a million times, but the immense care like a quick five Russell. And then this is ideal.

Let me also runs in an I serve entrepreneurs. So am I think, about awake. I will get you www duration. You help people with personal growth and development. Ere I do is like people who are upset the personal growth and development when they want to start contributing taking their talents and turn him into businesses. That's right! I pick up a conversation. I love serving people who are trying to take gifts and turn them into into businesses, and so I started doctors and college. My very first product was teaching people out to make a potato gun which dorky by that's how I got started: and if I started doing it, I just had so much fun. I obsessed Abscess bike sales marketing, how to create cells funnels and processes in, and they the words on a page to get people to buy something. I get them to move to get them to change their life like I became obsessed with those kind of things and I just did therefore probably decade and then eventually started teaching other entrepreneurs how to do it and had so much fun, because I saw how, if I'd tunnel

but there's something I gave them a torn and they use as to they can get their message out and make a change. a hundred thousand million people's lives and So the last man tenth eighteen years- so I ve been doing, is helping so for no reason and we do it through teach them get there and their ideas in their there, their businesses alike Ray and you. Why? Then, this humble people on the planet, because you didn't mention that you on a very successful happen click. Yes, it's that, chancellor, that the is the the end product of like us, the first four years like how to how to sell things online, and everyone would understand the principles we can do it and ten years ago I met my business partners inside Dickerson in he's the site. Assuming I met my life and I was too people how to build a funnel where it being obeyed seminars people come in, they would do to wanna whiteboard out their funneled. I kissed suddenly to be, and I make a golden hire someone from

doping or somewhere to build it for you and they never get past the point and tat the genius you like. We give us software made this easy for people as they ok and sure enough. He sat down his laboratory built out built the first version, click funnels and now we have a company for eight years them over a hundred thousand active entrepreneurs, they monthly on the platform and theirs everything you can dream up from your from coaching too, the co products, the supplements to health care to avian about dental care like every day. There's again over one thousand pursued selling stuff on our platform, and so it's it's been like literally the right to life last, replace them right right, we'll just in case people saying and they're not familiar with the idea of a funnel. I know we're going really basic, but I just want people understand, I think, sometimes, when we are experts in an error, we kind of thing

were teaching down here were actually Pierre, which I feel like I've probably read about one of your books, but at the idea of a funnel. Is this like it? When we talk about marking we're talking about digital marketing, so it sort of starting with casting a really. Why not? How do I find people who are vaguely interested in what I'm talking about kind of leading them down a digital path in order to lead to a sale that Philip, that a good description, but best ships live actually heard and people a great people, see every single day. Like sir, we certainly have, I think, about just your business, for example, right like you ve got millions of dollars on Facebook and Instagram and always from places right. Bribery comes to your vents, so everyone there's always followers than a percentage. Most followers moved down the funnel. Whether I am relations book right and then they buy book from you and they re that book it. If they give value from having my nice amazing, they may be there our common strategies that, of course, and excited for coarser coaching and a smaller percentage

move down the finest marks than it does that small upstairs comes the events in and so everyone here world buys everything but there's collect. This final word were each step down the Timor. More people are are coming in, and as long as we found this interesting is that when you have customers as long as you keep writing about turkey buying from you keep doing the next thing, and so the key with with offices just keep crane really stuff Creek value in the world people keep falling into buying from us in a percentage of people can abide each level share. What you're doing so. I feel like that's what I've broad strokes, broad overview, and I am going to kind of take a left turn today and that I don't want to have like the typical, like, let's sell people on this idea because If people are already familiar with you, I think the best way, the most knowledge, like all the information that you need is in the first book

I wanted to have read the first book and then I want to have a conversation that people who do know who you are don't normally get to hear other cool. So that's my uncle. My vision. Rather so, will you talk about the first but because I know be asked if I must have told you this, I probably read it accepts like ice. They should have been examining how you guys, like bring with all of my notes in on only the pages yeah like because it was one of the things that I. It was the most easy to understand and digital marketing easy to understand, files easy to figure out a solid people are mine. Just spoke comprehend, like literally your books, have rules in that computer. So tell us about that first book because I like that, may be the first one and they just get the whole theories in the back yard procedures. The first book was called. It's called dot com secrets, simultaneous a horrible name, but when I was first,

this, is that was like learning secondary so much. Like I'm sure it was his tried to go down the rabbit holders like so much in any member reading these getting overwhelm us. I feel like there's these secrets of people doing. I was seeing people have success like figure this out. So for me, what I look like was: I was buying courses and studying going to seminars and events now hearing complex. ideas and I will try to like doodling cometh, I'm very visuals. I do like ok so step. One is this. I draw the squares and Mercosur here, so I would do ITALY. These ideas out soon clear, my head. Intervention as they all key. This makes sense and then and then things: ice arguing. It is doodling out all those learning tribe, they can make sense. My head right remember one summer. Ask me what I was doing. I would show my deals like this now work. That explains, why do people to say that so much simpler? My oh, I don't I can just for a long time. This is how my brain was able to synthesize all the stuff to something very simple I remember when I started

somebody tell me one day, like you, ve gotta have a book. You wanna be rough eyes. I don't write a book but never read the book I was. I've, never been an author. I scared me to death. I forgot my first book now is that the title was able now comes, the secrets of the boy went on the internet, and then it was they taking all these. It was a year of my cave. How does it work? It was the first two thousand tried Ike to my mind, is that no marshpees periods that I like what to do will be. The they are telling. The second thing in the thirteen in and out the dual like this is like. This is the reason why we do this is how it works than from here. This will we take the person and then from here take me here hear so that was kind of the so the very first book and like that help one understand the basin so your line, and it's not like it's not a basic, but those you know like it. He goes de, but it, but it is who's is my goal was traced to explain things. A subway were any big they, oh my gosh. I get. I finally see how this all works and even light to the point where you say: oh now, I see what's been happening to behind the scenes like I bought things moving I have attended events like that. You know

they grow consumers world whirl experiencing a, but can I take the you'll, take the colonel Four year will see like oh my gosh, I see what's happening inside the matrix. What every night, and now, with whatever I'm would cite and apply these principles in our success as well. of that and I feel like that was a gift for those who are listening. You are not already familiar, but there is a portion of his audience whose, like holy Shit, Russell runs out oh my god, and the huge they all and so I'd love to take a deep dive, and I feel like I have this. we incredible behind the scenes here, because I get to be friends with your color in real life like I get actually what I did I was I have requested. I knew the prospective there's some really you,

things about you as an entrepreneur that are so very different than other men, especially within this market place, and I'm just curious how you founds sort of your spot out, adjusting or changing who you are in order to accommodate. Maybe what you have seen in the world. So, for instance, one of the things that are so noticeable about you onstage, an appeal of course, and in real life, is your enthusiasm for life, you're, so joyful you're, so excited, and that's not the sort of Bro entrepreneurial culture that has then certain prevalent in the last five ten years. I get you, really is more of the like. I'm too cool, I don't care either. So was that, did you ever think like omen, I I I need a real again, because this is not how other people do this or have you always should have had the courage to be exactly who you are

the great question, so I think it was using like what I think why do people get into bed because they are looking for significance right, didn't, haven't they want when life and are looking for it? Guy came into into this old and out. I'd had six legged going up his rest there. So I'd have success that had to be united, stay champion. I was all american. I got how lovely things it's always like. That was the thing I was craving worth like. A lot of people cannot because of that I take the looking for the significance we like to have that appear in my life and I join if it wasn't like that was the driving force for me, so with security with security I just met. She was making nine hundred and fifty now her job. I was rustlings, I couldn't get it. I can get a job they brought about maybe the providers of music like I need to figure out, make money, I can be proven, they have those kind of my initial thing going into as they We had no security. I ignite fifteen hours now want to live off him twenty years ago right.

can I went into it and then I remember going to like it. I know what sort of business online I was going to these events and I found one of two things. One is like. Will you talk about that culture just like their people? As like her? I don't know if I would like necessary. One hang out with people in fact, here we're going to events like in the room with these guys and the offers I hate Russell? We want to buy this huge party efforts, be prohibition company when feel comfortable and as a brake beer invited to stock up, and I remember feeling- this this weird like yesterday- good things the world than after hours. You do things that were just like with death begged super. Disconnecting me: I'm alright, go to business events where their people and soon ties and make and I'm sitting in these rooms. There sharing stop now, my oh, my gosh I'm freaking out like in the back and every half asleep. I beg you- and I Looking back, I just given reassure like I want, tell everybody, but I'm a thing businesses so like why they make us a boring. This is like the most exciting thing in the world

and so I guess I was co developing this out those my thoughts it just like this is exciting and we should make this exciting. I got a five minute become a tea, an educator someday. I can make this the stuffy, didn't? I was sitting room like a boy, events that I was going to you know what I've been to like these events. In that event, then I'm like a twenty robins event as like. How do you plan those like me have Simon about personal development. Having excitement about business like it, Canada should be excited and then I'll, be partners. I was very turn off by well. People didn't wasted foreign. You got for me, Caesar my life. I came his business. I just got married life. I got pregnant like I don't want to lose. That now is kind of you noticed two hours so I do not ask the other, then yeah. no. I think it's really good and the reason that I ask is because a predominantly my listener ship is women and I think it is when it comes to entrepreneurship or even being leaders in business. I think a lot of us have felt like

we have to act like men in order to be successful in certain ways as I just Jerry S, because you or so unique in this industry. I was just curious if you ever felt like but I love the run I know that it is about a wine, this sort of chasing of significance or like this is gonna validate me. If other people, I'm great than I really am gray as opposed to not just gonna. Do you really and work giant, show up and be the same person and state that I am behind the scenes which it rare unfortunate rising. I leaned back and like being inside of the person, development industry Is amazing, I met the most amazing people, you included and then have definitely been bogged down by people. It's exactly what you said, her sort of their incredible teacher and they are changing wives, but there is this disconnect between.

What their teaching and the actions that they take in their daily life. when it comes to performance to the setting goals and achieving them to produce the results that you want in your life. There are a whole host of books that you can read or things you can do, or teachers that you can glean from, but have you ever consider third, that maybe it's not about reading another book. Maybe it's about doing some work to unpack. What's preventing you from achieving our goals in the first place in a therapy is a really great tool not just to help us overcome hard seasons, but to help us become the people

we want to be in life. Better help is an on line.

How do you make sure that you're staying true to your values, your beliefs, all of the things that you like, I feel like you have such a beautiful balance like when I sent you know last regular. Ok, you drop on the phone talk me you're like yes, except I'm cold, but she, my kids wrestling right now, and so I can't talk until next week is a truly insane the sweet like you're. So your vows, these are the forefront, no matter what it is you're doing. So how do you feel like you ve stayed connected to those women?

honestly. If my is my wife either for anything, you told me so that you will you marry anybody decides collect your headed, be so big like you be in bearable, allow bags his own apartment like my wife and I love her did ass. She is not part of businesses. Understand, most was happening, Herbie thing. Is it like a moment? I used to stake I need to be who I am only like, and so she's not impressed by any of the stuff, and so thousands because I like I would take home bag. I checked out, we did it, I take it. You know against, if he from that and I didn't get it which first caught my eye was hard. at the same time. It was like they both things I don't like these are very worldly things than while their their fun. For me, there are many addition, I'm doing a really good work wasn't like ES. I am it's it's. My work is my mission, but it's not who I am, and I was a part of it. The other thing I found it really interesting. I see this, especially in our industry, again people who are chasing significance. There, always Jason yes, I remember the commission's business like I don't want to. I don't want to.

I want to put the sharp spied on Ambiano put a spotlight on the art like this. Is the arts I'm doing right? It's when and create than for the spotlight there. As I try to take small off of me and put on rice, creating, I I got more significant, I did I did a pot. Yes, if the puppy, six or seven about this rise. Like the the more that I try to chase significance, the less I got the more I I I nice. Folks on serving people the more I can came to me, regardless couple. People go who I looked up to. I want to speak of. What am I bent a member one of them who I just look at my thoughts. Person is amazing. A night I buy them speak Yes, I had won the cells page for the thing in an hour, EL stage. They weren't the number eight. It was like I told you speaking percent only ever spoke got only speaking in it at all speakers, and he was one of the people and speakers Any message me the next morning I live at night. Would it what he's had Melick like I want to play?

Play second fiddle anyone, maybe Tony, but nobody else can it be. I am the key known that stuff inasmuch as I do that grass about me or you I put myself on the page like I'm like I'm, thereby this is better. This is not new with any by sake mistake anyway, so I didn't have a person speak with Europe coming Parting ways, and the person it speak, eloquent it was done make with the member Ike. aye sir, they knew. How did you two events? I get it. Lasting if a lot of work is a lot of, and so we do know that it's all that Tony speaks last August he is our stage a walking out just like thank you for coming and the entire audiences point. Thirty five the people at the I think stood up. Mister Channing, my name, which was weird. I says they superincumbent garlic, please stop, but they could think of. like oh, my gosh, like I didn't, try to get to the biggest from his moment all I tried to serve the audience and focus on them and because that

significant. They want, as I like I'd ever control dislike. Please don't, but it was like fasting. I beg the more I see I see. I see the significance, the less. I kid, because things like that, but I'm just spoke. Some serving then it comes as a by product in that death is fascinating. Some fell guy because I feel like that creation an explosion of social media over the last ten years, but especially of the last five, has really worked there for people, especially entrepreneurs or or any sort of anybody with a platform like it has worked this to the worst agree, and you- and I were just talking before we started- recording that the most success I have in life have had a life or will have a life is when I first Thus, on the content, I am creating it's not when I do a bunch of social promotion. It's not when my hair is bono, it's not when I look

Q and an outfit on stage. It is when I care deeply about the content, and the audience that it serving like girl wash your face. I did not have a social following. I did not none of happens seven million books or whatever none that happen, because I had a connection or got on the today show that happened, because I worked really hard to write a book that I thought without women. That's it there's all magic other than that, and I feel like this is something spend so lost and I love it. We're having a conversation is, I think a lot of people need to hear this right now going into the third year of the endemic. What I believe is real and things that matter. don't matter anymore and people feel so lost and so ensure and everyone's cutting their job and try to figure out what comes next. We ran a real risk of creating a lot,

It looks really good on Instagram and is absolutely nothing in our existence, and I see this allied on Effusiveness alot of people that their incidents gorgeous and everything straight and behind the scenes the disaster right hand yeah. So so what what advice you have for people who are listening to this? like dang, ok, something I'll just said just curious, my heart, I am chasing significance more than I'm chasing doing good work. I ain't gonna biggest downsides a socially nowadays is that people can block so fast over stuff is not real re, like you, said beautiful women who were posts. Nothing, and then they saw show more. Their body also boom their blood and their famous overnight. They didn't buy the actual work right or easy and eaten one example begbie anything right. It could be Yoda due to read the private. Judging the pictures, often they now so they get they give

the rewards are doing the actual work right, yeah you're speaking I like it. I like people who are like I signed up for America. and I would like- and I am sorry that I am a jerk right now as the marathon, runner and my three you having started training celebrated, but you didn't Ebay, yes, and I think about like DR I've What's your story, I decided I wasn't there beginning your journey by seeing the videos are viewed on state with you know, cards nervously. the state of yours like on fire right, but I saw the videos of you when you work and it's funny cost at. What am I lasted as I showed smiled the US removed from man fifteenth eighteen years ago because I was not I was I was thick the people I noise, probably one of the worst- is not the worst like. I was rude that I was so past about his business and some ass. They had become successful Russ like some sad, you become the governor the success or something I don't like you,

stammered I'll this art for me to get started marking the today I love this are so much that when I first started of learning. I start doing events a running radio radioactive invoice, yet how to get people to come to an and members showing up to the hotel, died, rented and haven't tube in the room? oh crap and do not entirely for two people when nobody cared right, I did that. I didn't stop ass. I did another one and another one, and I did another one and another watch. How did you these sixty seventy presentations in front of empty rooms before anybody care and then, Skype copy will care in a couple more a couple more it wasn't me I was probably and thirteen years in before anybody else on this planet cared about funnels, empty hotel rooms over over an ogre, because I cared about how much I they get. I wasn't sitting there with you on your journey back. I believe same way from Europe, from your things like and ass. People are missing like when you just our son,

you become famous overnight at Amsterdam, would have eaten do that work insults its shallow and you're gonna at its heart. You stay like I've been in this business law, you twenty years that I've seen sums by the people go and come and going every every year to use a cycle of like the new it'll people that they pop and then they probably pop in drop in the reason why I've around twenty years, because I'm obsessed with the art and I'm going to do it, whether there's people there not like nobody, shows up. I'm still going to write the book. I'm still going to do the presentation, I'm still going to seminar, because I care about it, my tribe, I believe you the same way like you're you're, do this. Whether you know, despite in. You had a season when people were like insanely not like mean to you, and your still only because you obsessed with the art people are missing, was like it's how to get people into them, Because its painful missed its hard, it's not something's overnight but if you really believe what you do is keep doing it in half of it in and ass, we get the longevity from war and if you can

If you are obsessed with the content of your obsessed with the creation of your obsessed serving the audience. Your unstoppable. You literally cannot be stopped. If what you care about most is like Son Instagram is followers is what kind of press your getting? If that's what you're here for that can be taken away that fast. But if you're here to serve there is always someone deserve an you you can't be, Your permission can't be pulled out from under you. You can go through hard he's you ve go through hard staff. We both have, but it's easier we stand up and go again because the. Why is so strong, like the wise, though significant nobody ended? I love that we're having this conversation, because I think For the longest time you know the focus has been on like building the personal brand having a personal brand, and I do think that that was really helpful for people being able to preach in it for the longest time

There was value in it for sure, but it has created this monster of people who are more focus on their personal brand and their personal life, like all they care about, is what is going on with the brand, and they think that that somehow. affects who they are in the real life, and there is a obsession and light and there was a time in my life where I absolutely bar into the idea there. I needed to be present on social media every day or a my business was gonna flop, where I needed to be present on social media every day or I wasn't gonna be able to be an actor. Like I, I really got this twisted for myself and I in the last year. We only really worked on. What is my life feel like this. Is my life right here like in this room with four kids: do in school drop off, making

chairs making dinner tonight, taking my dog on a walk later? That is my real life and that can't be made better or worse, based on how do people liked an instrument but were missing there- and I like I'm here- you know me like I'm here for the ambition, everyone building the biggest thing that they can build and following their dream, but it can't come at the cost of your actual real life being guided yeah, and so many people are getting this just so wrong about it how do you figure it out? They we both know people we're not going to name names. Will we both know were buried, financially kill in it and their actual there, their kids don't talk to them and there you know their miserable in real life, so I'm super, but that we got it that is, I feel like not enough. People are right now. So

How free king important it is to be around other people who are successful on the way you want to be successful.

No matter how try right will you talk about that Definitely it's interesting. Has I think most of us fallen this trap, because a lot of it will work. School rise, like I gotta, learn this in this night, my gizzard out, like they're, trying to pass this is finals weeks for them to their trade study. Forensic in French. They all things. I learned also also, we think like money system, Might I gotta know all these things right? and one of my friends downfall than he has a book the who not how it is really fast thinks he says it

One thing right: value lurk in an objective and you come back to the path of data making room for a start going next thing too. next like how do I do? I don't know how to do this. He stopped Ok, I gotta figure it out and we can do this thing right in fact, in my last and we were showing like for some to build it. unlike all the skills that you try to build a funnel, as I take you like, you know too copyright. In least this matter months, then, this is like showing the pieces and, were summoned to start and to actually have launched funnel? If you did to try to learn how to how to do everything, it was like seven years in actual the national they usually do. I made most of you guys like like

in our time or money before you ever get to the finish line right and so the shifting minds as accessing make how its hoo hoo hoo like ok, who already knows this already, has a skills. Then, who are you the personality This is their unique ability where they can go and they could do it today, as you said, define find those those pieces rake. if you're, building a business or if your trying to lose weight or whatever side it for me, was made out to understand how metabolic rates in carries and macros worth it doesn't matter. If I know how to do ass, you know who? Can they tell me how to do it? We can do it for me who to set up destruction that things in place, ignored our business, like Lord, had who copy? How? Who knows how I that I they can hire nicely four years of age? becoming a master, something by giving some guy did that. I can see We things happen and in the reality of seven years to build a funnel too young thirty days or you know five lose wait till we do in in a quarter whenever that thing might be

given their former from a who did it to their from how to get it. To think through the idea that there's someone out there. Who knows how to do this already and probably can do it better than you can anyway. So looking at how you get help from those experts, but also, I think the people play such a massive role in Ella like elevating our lives, are elevating our business, and I know I've seen I know, but I'm just assuming you ve gone to business mastery or new our friends of Tony, so maybe business mastery just as every time you hang out with him alive, but going to business master was the first time I heard the term proximity is power. And I feel like for entrepreneurs who are listening to this I haven't heard that yeah or need the reminder. there is nothing like. It is so essential that, as you are trying to elevate your life, like one of the most important factors is who

The end, your life that is influencing your growth or your then there is one of the other he can't sort of both. So how much has that played a role in you continuing, elevate, could obviously you're like Rollin was some big dogs? Now, that's definitely not, where you started when you are like launching potatoes hillside is there, it is so we can learn something from from movies, so I'm a marvel fan Bethink about like labour. When, in the movies, like I it is say, there's someone I gotta Carker. So stay no sorts whatever like they do. They didn't go just attacking the first thing to say they assembled a team rightly so. If we're gonna attack this, we need a hawk. We need now are many and they D assemble the people. We need to be successful and for all of us to say what is the thing you're trying to go for it is they? Who can we D assembled at that the team?

As you know, I did. I told you earlier having geek out in going deep on new point Helen and all the early thought leaders back in their early lady Henry at an early age hundreds and Napoleon S book, thinking, grow, rich and often lost success and as an finding twelve other places you talk about it, but he talked about Andrew Carnegie, where Carnegie was the richest the time in, and I there's a lawyers interviewed him in and which I give my Kate. I wish I stopped them on these things. Now passing these different questions and Carter, you like to know the answer to know answered after three or four times these, these these learned men, like all your knitted, uniting in his eye. Udall understands I have a master. My group of people in my proximity were any question you could ass. I can push the button. Have the answer in thirty five seconds. There's no reason for me to learn all these different things and I'm, and that was the first and the planet teaches this principle the master might. But the same thing is true: it's like an avenger or masterminded dream team or whatever, but it's like who are the people begin? Who are all the whose you need in proximity to you to be successful unless click funnels,

you know it? Wasn't it wasn't Russell like I'm, not that smart? I was ok. Well, I I am really get it like this tragedy, do you want us to that? I too, find it taught me tat my iron man rights to Todd's, thereby taking the you do it, I'm ok, why imagine people any the manager, and I need someone here and like we started assembling this team to be able to execute on on the mission and get out for This is true in anything life right might for ample a couple years ago I decided that I want to start wrestling again. It is forty year old, like your sister s, workers. bodies. Don't do that, but I think I wanna do enters its own. Address. Internum happens once a year for myself. I want to do this. I can but the way I did Robin Hood destroy other activists weight a trainer making my muscles. If they do, we need a rustling accounts, but rather they dress or then I gotta figure out like the moves again like, and so I started putting a hood. people in my life, but I knew It's like you actually achieve this thing, because I'm not gonna just shop on my own and and

destroyed in a single in front of a whole into people I got some basing methods should any party life is like. Ok, imagine you gotta go to tackle this. They have What's your avenger team you're drinking beer, justice Legal ever, but version that you are yourself, but who are the people that yes rounders were to be able to do and then on top that's, like you said, in these having them in constant conversation because it raises you're raise your mind right here. People have re conversations you think differently than if here with your normal, please you you, don't think that yeah well and then how? What do you say to people who are listening to those who are alike? I I and looking around my crew and on the smartest person and the crew. I am the most ambitious and most and driven, and it's not to say that there is anything wrong with your peeps and you have the most amazing family, friends If you want to elevate your life, you can't be the one that most

they that right, you have to surrender some people who are more successful than you in the way you want to be successful and a lot of times. I feel like when people here this evening. station at a conference or whatever life. Only that how do I get access to people who are more successful or higher up then I am so. I would be curious. True love the conversation you had about how you serve serve, serve server, serve Tony for alike I don't even know Deleon years before. Finally, it was like a right you're, getting called to the big legs. I think so. The first misconception- people like again, I have had access these people so registered. I didn't have access Leyden him money either some member right, but I got into the marking world they want to learn. Marketing asked, are looking at every single person had like these in programmes were ten thousand our slave. about when my always things as well as the broke out get. I got no money

right. Ok, I, I guess I'll have the resources to do as they become resourceful. I was there. I gotta become resourceful so for me as I go one way value them like I. Could you try to interview rice for me, the firstly, it is. I try to interview people and so on. The role of I would become the reporter and I'm an enemy people, and so I never messaging these people and it's like. Why would they listening to call his kid? I got feel I've no platform have nothing but what I did have was. I was interested in them right. and you be shocked at how far there goes gay I didn't want you guys, you or I write all their so busy. They have always done. We are like him say me busy realized up, but like at least for me all the people in my world around me. Don't care about the stuff and talk about right in like right message, somebody amsterdammers or face or somewhere, and I can see

everything, but there I hate. I read your book, I'm obsessing! Any we do circles anyway, could pick your brave or twenty minutes are not, as I hate that we're picking brains I gave you leave me alone, like hey, I've, a pike S happening, ok or hate, and women I'll be right. for me, a member I was, I was travel- to fully marketing. So I bought the time about the size. Do it who kept our comrades. I hate. I do think how do you do camps carry interview for this discourse emperor together? I how you do this specifically right in, You understand, marking, there's like hundred ways to mark your business. I found one pursue spit. It was really good at like S theo. we'll get a paper Clayton. Somebody was good. This is pre face, but instead, so it would about it the person in Amsterdam right right of item picking me FR categories I wanted in the night, I I emailed for five experts easy. or is it just ask them They will be doing and again for out five people you there nor near said no. Whatever but like I was able to one person each category to say yes

Oh, my gosh so cool its own citizens entertained outdoor consult, easy. I gotta thirty minutes from our interview with them. For this product has put together the core aspirin together, didn't have any customers, but they didn't know or care and aid of you, first person and in the second person in the third person and a couple things are happening. Number one is I started getting I I was learning directly from these people, like my knowledge, are going up, which is really cool. I'm having chest ass, the my questions, so I started like getting My question is: why start like thinking deeply that hearing them speaking the overall in Oregon and number three other we'll start seeing me. I'm interviewed this person this person, this person, in that the concept of proximity path, is powers. the powerful couple ways and what it's like you learn from them directly. The number two is like people see you in proxy me: the people it automatically raises you're you're on status, but like big, Stan you that level right and so

today, if I was to start from scratch them back when I would use, I would start upon task as Pakistan is simple get into, but is really cool, pick a female I wanna be impressive element I bio hacking. I want to be in whatever year Can you actually really passion about and then start messaging? The p what the best the authors, the speakers that people are trying their master anyway Easter. Yes, they have these interactions with them. That's how that's how it begins, These are getting arrested for rendered regulated our friends in the marking world twenty years ago, but I started interview people within less three. months I was friends with all these authors. These speakers I started getting. There would go to the vet, I knew who they were. They knew I was. the relationships and and interesting for me is a lot at stake. People with topic, a totally Robins Right- did not respond to me for for a long time, I found people's right, maybe one or two steps ahead, where I was right, they ve been doing

four year had some success. They had of global following and fights are intervening those people and then out, sherry after being abused or a big man. I was recalling who else you know who regularly reviewed. They would interest me someone else and bade interests me and we certainly building these these frameworks. What happened They all our businesses together all kinds collectively started growing together, wasn't like we're going to tony tony bromine overnight mail success right, but we take the earliest not like that. It was like I put in the time of the effort. I was serving them and they were certainly me. Am I venture. We were the young, the bottom tear the red. The total prevention became the first year and begin second here and the third year. Best eventually, and this little you happen to me they for five years into this business. Twenty robins reached out to me. I did reach out to Tony reach out. To me say: hey we're, seeing what you're doing here a couple questions for you close doing that the hours emotionalism momentum, people, never they never get into momentum. Asleep ever having success like veto right, I'm gonna momentum started podcast or blog or Youtube shower something they get in most

item, and then that opens up these doors for people in income stations and things to where you can are building that got free, Reuben that network, because it It's gonna be hard that guy. I feel bad saying this, but after high school to remove. I go wrestle and I left my hometown brag about. Hometown, it is really interesting to me, like most of my friends, I know where they can be saturnine. I know it's. A belgian waffle, they're gonna, be there's like a whole by lobbies. Go like camp is based twenty four hours in my hometown is, I know, they're gonna, be there every Saturday night. I should There is that they show up and we hang out or we eat we restored the times and then they all them in his axiom spot. They were twenty years ago in high school. none of them change, because their victory with the same people. We can you love those people can be with them, if you really want to grow and have have the level doesn't wherever they lawgivers businesses, health or whatever you ve got to find that the group of people or do we want to be doing it getting

into momentum and when you start doing that, dorsal start opening your skills that will get better and that how you asked you about. I just want to add a couple of slots, and that too, is that I think sometimes you will hear that and there Alright, I'm going go chase down. You know this person that I really admire, and the key is that when you are pursuing people who are more successful than you are a forceful you're, not just six pursuing the highest level instead of looking at the entire staircase right so you're like I'm a pursuer relationship with Frank current, because then he has access to Tony any kind of stairs but along the way you were there because you were excited and because you wanted to serve and you weren't expecting something in return, and I think that's what people get this wrong is that there are like they want a sort of be like a used ourselves- men and they their turn. A network of using air quotes the hate that term, but

trying to network and really the intention, is to get something back there like all. Let me help you, because I want you to scratch my backing, Peter, whereas you- and I know this about you- is you just serve with your heart and you're, not expecting anything in return from people, and so I feel it that's it point, that's really really important. Is that if you really are trying to do good, it's going to come back to you, but you don't have to chase it. Yeah. That's it believes that a mistake to make as they go out there like I'm. Just like you to think one point out cause that way the mean you met rig. I guess you, because initially my white, our friends to some more dieter to watch something I am only eight or ten thousand. this thing and then they came back and I freaked out crying all staff and my wife's at the book is she's ready it. I know you so by just like they say space, I'm asking to go and then on, and then I met Dave next

Good Porter Regos. For some we match our citizens in this group and obviously no you are like say to me, you and I were totally doing my site and I do hope, an person thing you know, and I tried to call back, as you know, but then I you're sorry about search. I got your business and I've seen we are doing. I make you have funnels breaking out I've only got abuse by the funding could with that. I also, of course, because I, wanted to help you to do the things that I know what you're doing what you could do by just these little things. Remember the other, was mere perspective. Remember, like a camera, You were Dave. Someone says something like I've. Never seen some. This excited about anything, let alone make funnels ed, and we stand by to the dinner and outside I wanted. hope you can like you need funnel. I wasn't make someday You may be sure of the Pakistan, maybe she's like I rather and check it out now, Monterrey, I'm on your part, gas. There wasn't, because I was trying to figures like I honestly like. Let me reply. art, what you're doing, because I think he can help and then you come more people happy so cool and you forget about like the opera

this. I beg- and you know I'm noons line. If you'd know people coming in with different intentions you feel like everything's, weird and adjust it does that you put these guards. Were everything kind of just gets, blocked, where's, polio waivers? They don't really care. Something goes back happens as Jews with some good happens right and I will say I had met more, well, then I admired or got connections are had opportunities because I just kept talking about how much I love them. I met Brendan years ago because I was obsessed with high performance habit and I talked about on the podcast all the time and social all the time and I say I know it sounds like I'm getting paid for this. Knowledge is obsessed with this book and he tells the story of like a hundred people have say like do you know this check out? She keeps happening by issuing their failure programme. What is the deal I mean this? Is such a? Do she thing to say, but

when I finally got to interact with the rock who is one of my favorite people on the planet. It was because I had been talking on so much they're. Finally, like oh, my God, throw this chicken bone like she is obsessed and pinky, but he's so inspiring, and I just kept telling the story and then it I got notice, not because I was trying to but because I was like. I really think this content is great and I think that it you'll think it's great to so so check it out, because I also have people who come to me at home. friends are those Syria, the gross or whatever, and there are like what can I do for you? What can I do for you, which is such an awkward question, and it's like I get what you're trying to do, but you're missing point it's it's sort of like how do you am how'd you serve and take care of other people, because that's your insight. and because it feels organic not because you think you're supposed to

Do you think that you're gonna get something on the flip side and just chart on the idea of proximity is power, and you know this idea that you could pick up the phone and- and you know, talk to a million people that you know the rest of us would kill to the airport. these two- I was thinking about this because I was gonna sound. However, it sounds a little do shape, but it's true is that people will offer me a lot of money. Why do put amount of money to coach them for two hours? It's not something advertise, it's not something I've ever put out into the world, but I have people who will find a way right, though reach out to my agents. They'll be they'll do what they can do in order to get access and be like yours, a pot of gold, every Rachel sit with me for two hours and just coach make a really

like she's, the one who can help me with my problem, which is so firing? And so amazing- and I had this happened recently and online pod. Let's go I'll love, some one wants to invest. Who cares that much that they're, like, I believe, here's the thing? What's? Let's have some coaching, but what I keep thinking about is for these people who have done there s an end to the best of my ability, and I think that I'm very talented at coaching someone through Elevating they're alive for a hard season, if you my body Russell call me and were like rage there is this woman she's this entrepreneurs on this thing. She's amazing, I really like all she wants is some time with you. I would be like. God rest Centre over, like altogether lunch without money without agents without that's the power of proximity is that if someone has access at an end

Do you talk about this? A lot that you know, someone who know someone who know someone like we have these tentacles and we have this reach, we're so limited and what we think were capable of that we don't try yeah. One way to do it is like throw money at the problem, but the way is to have peace, or in your alive that have access that you don't have the practical application. I think a shirt on Pakistan, Otherwise, you know you came and visit us couple months ago after you left the Y later big guy, with my best friends in the whole world, my silver company, that he cannot the brain tumor and you know which rocks all our world? We need to do more freaking out in a month later we had our big event and, turning to speaking after we had done, we have the alone option, talk to Tony hey he's. I hate you asked me a question. You already want right. Who do you know who I can can can help with with this right

and towards like oh, my gosh against the nine people, this doctor all night, a mature terminal, all unaided, survived As things weight limit out, you should react them in, so we did and we take to them in young Dave, I think, is his rifle of like that. The percentage has the game was like six percent chance of living more than a year and we flew down to communities doktor tenant, the guy everybody deep into it- maybe she'll be because this big family for you, I got you said you'd tell me about that as crazy Blake. studies and research showed that cancer is diverted to keep rue canals and make a crazy Dave's calves think to recall it had years before back at when he was sitting in that the same doctors office with this particular person, the dogs up the same tumor same side seem route. Now seems that they give us it's crazy. So I don't the details, nothing other than its that there's more there's more limits, be now

health stuff right, Tony's come out new book, all that health, which I so excited you computer at Amazon. I believe it is not here yet I'm freaking out anyway, but so we asked action, they went in their general stuff Dave. live. The guys off spike two months did always divert see me two weeks. Do all these different things comes back if that gets his next MRI in the doctor's, like it's gone like what's coming, the tumor like the tumor is gonna. These guns not like it has gone, unlike that was because of price and if I met tony fifteen years gone pursued moist how things are women have had we not less Europe, stability right, you never know when those taxes would come up her how're. You know anything like that. Like I'm sure any time my life were kids may have an issue and another Rachel. You do what you saw this when you were killed the orbit, and there's probably be phone calls and come some or make. I need your help, or vice versa. You maybe you're, like my funnels but it's not working. I can come to your health budgets bill modulation, ships again, because you. What do you have to offer people? You don't have anything like gives skilfully

offer something to people in tray offered to people's many, as you can't do that you're, that's the value can provide. He gets no people connect with them and then you'd have no one when the fisheries and situations, I got to know that meeting Tony Robbins fifteen years ago, is going to help save my friend from brain cancer. I got to know that was going to happen because I was and serving make. It opens up these doors when, when you need them the most interesting, do you feel different parties That, too, is that you, know how to ask better questions. or that even your thinking, you're sort of not accepting no for an answer like there's a lot of people who it wouldn't it's like proximity? Yes, I mean we just have a conversation about how important that is, but I am also hearing it sort of like ask asked better quest or ask in a different way or ask who do I know that? Has this resource or ask verses juice, accepting this is an entrepreneurial trade. Is that we just don't we don't accept? No, we don't accept

idea that we can't we always fill it. There's other options is planned, ABC D. All the way to the under the alphabet, so do Philip part of it is. Is that peace Yes, you have to know people, and then you also have to think of it in a different way. If the refrain, what someone is your reality is ya. I think. I mean for sure I think most people in fact it it's crazy. I had a friend who, three weeks ago, one person, gotta brain tumor. Now my friend drinks later. Gotta bring to rise, like Google became, talked him in his eye. Guys at this is there some? Ok, that's good here, the patent I, like dumping, everything, here's name, contact, allocates salaries like our. Why Doktor said distances stick with us in this work than are looking those if you said, oh, my waidelich. did you ever hear the words are coming out of my mouth. I told you like. I want this journey all are you do this to get connected everybody! Here's the answer, like our doctors, to this,

the vote on that, as opposed to you like me, or you would be ok awesome. I need to go back plans. I feel every single thing right. Looking for all of them, things like and make the wearisome warlike, try because bake the more traditional at least my the more traditional Serbia's. Do them away that the more there's like yeah there's something else there that site out of the I get I'm looking for like what are the alternate things that the people, talk about the work, because the world is we're, so this is like there's a lot more things that better than her, then, what like, what we I think I still think about this autumn with vague, school, we were about to forfeit groups the food peer dynamic, that's the worst Helen advice on the fire. That is the main thing disapprove by the governments to provide a governor payments. I dont think that anything that can possibly compromise. My Personal pay you something by one of the other things art for food the figures that in whenever version of the thing you looking for day, who's got either I'm just looking for groups, I'm regained, wait, I'm I can be healthy, happier

So I is looking break through the experts. Actually trust for me. Typically, like the people there, trust the most of the people who are so passion about their topic at the writing books on it. Didn't courses are rather speaking, theirs by those. people. I tend to tour to plug into the most My last, like you, I ve, been talking about this. I will have you pick a girl like if you The the heroes journey- I know you stay there by the heroes journey. If you read that book called the hero, the thousand basis and in a book he documents like story, eyes from every area. like every generation every part of the world they all over the place and all following a very similar story: storyline right, look at any movie in Hollywood. They all they'll used the same script, is: hero was in ordinary world. It's called on adventure, but then there's the refusal of the cod and they finally decided go in and they leave their hometown and innate are they going to meet on this during the new guide and remove it it's every movie, that's that Lord the rings- that's Rocky Balboa, that's that

they all their rights, but you get the story minus bits present. Every the story from the beginning. I dynamic that the third of step, as he always meet the guide to me I will who is the guy that I gotta find a guidance will be taking on this journey and I could go wandering the wilderness. Looking for my own table to figure out who is the guide, I figure who that guide is like I've been on blinders, and I just follow that person says so. One of the jokes we have here with my friends wrote a blog posts when time ETA, today's morning routine in his morning, routine was like nuts and then at the enemies like. Why do I do this enemy recycler? Tony Robins he's like a historian Toby, so I obey our guys who fired doctors have money enough stage presence or somebody batch Gaza is my joke like when I take my when I pick my dear mother Yoda behind you fellows, you can see the video audio Yoda behind, thereby take my vote. I think my guide opponent blinders

I'll be all things the giants they who have helicopters estate presence do right, it's like, if I take a guy, they that's amazonian and whatever they say. So. If I want to pursue dominant near my person, make big I'm Everything else and whatever you say, is gospel. Do it and start a business that one not twenty minutes? One business grew followed a guide to the to the promised land relic. If I'm health say they are picking link is forty different plans. They all can work in different ways, but if I'm illegal kid, I'm gonna pick a kid. I did I'm going this and how he was raised that had taken a guide. Putting on board you're gonna do it at where they sakes. I obey I'll giants who why helicopters have stayed for us Oh I guys, while I feel like talking about guides the really beautiful way to endless degree, like you have been an incredible guide for us this afternoon and I always feel like it such a treat when my real life mentor, then friends get me tour and friends the audience- and maybe

to hear from you- and I know I already know everything he's. Gonna really dig this episode and I hope that you will come back. They already know we're gonna get request for more information, but if people are listening to this end- Rwanda want to find out about quick, funnels and virtue. They want to follow you and get your enthusiasm in your energy every day of the week. Will you tell them? Where gave him all the stuff? Where are you well yeah deftly I mean the platform and most accidents. Bobby Instagram, so you do a rustle Brunson, and then I got a pot cast the marking seekers part cast it. I got marketing kind. I would also like everything else, I'm interested in so yet. Albert others things my pie, Gaston in marking, stickers, telecoms kind of ahead that from there it everything else that I got some of them, I do have one more question to ask you one request I'll get you set them recently on a par cast that I would like. Oh I'm surprised you, your Russell Bronzes

back at you didn't really go, take a deep sigh because it sounds like my sort of which you were advised, the guy that you do protests with said something like her. you're a mentor or no, maybe do any of you someone. They sent who's your mentor, and you said, oh, I don't really have a living mentor by that. Have yourself dance around this idea that you have Torres. Did you mean just your reading. All the backs frowned upon in hell and then he's your mentor or do you actually feel like you, have a Spirit Guide in Napoleon Hill so interesting, so those who are known for Europe but thinking, grow, rich last success and I actually recently spent a small fortune yeah? found someone who spent twenty years like like point stuff, and in that connection- and I say you just over your fear but on the topic

was different things, but one thing there is the schooner. Fifty pages of hand type stop the boil hand typos typewriter his notes in its debate that the no one's ever see this, I'm really seems la fastening in these in these dark and see tight. He talked about these kennicott elements from the book these, like I, these councils people lived through a pastime We liberals are ok Edison make in there. There's that there's a vampire thirty pages hand typing with him. Have common he's in as nappies pastor. fascinating in this conversation, and I know what's true or not in this, but but so powerful. He's asked me this is like your daddy's like why. How you have this conversation is like I've done bodies spiritualizing, I'm still here looking you for mortal bodies like inspired, continue my work well, when I read that I got the chosen like. Oh my gosh, like I don't our know how any that stuff works on claim to, but I do know that, like when I'm reprint ray the point here books and I'm trying to think about how to make it inspires audience to move forward more definite, a purpose or too clever things. I'm doing like I get

spraying and unawares coming from elves from him for some an outright, but likewise studying the people who passed on who I can eat me out and try to figure out how to solve a problem. I'm trying to figure out how to explain is how to move somewhere or whatever. I definite in those moments like em. No, you fellows stage me you're talking ass in some parts, you had your honor. I came from a rabbit. You go in the trash Mason happens because of it right, and I know that is bunch. I get more more connected to that. Where thirty, I definitely been gotta witness fresh from there, but I also believe that their there people are passed on who there fiscal bodies were, but they have a mission ever work in their here and I'm hoping to when I die someday, I'm hoping to my spirits there and I'm inspiring people like like keep moving on this thing, like I started on the good in the forty fifty eighty, how many years I get on this this world and hoping that I thought the m, hoping that, with the chance to spire the next generation son. I why work, that ways. If so I love
