I got a question this week from someone who wants to know if they have what it takes to be an entrepreneur, and after hearing his story, he's going to have a rough ride. And I don't mean that in a rude way, I believe anybody can be an entrepreneur, however, it's going to be an uphill battle for some people. If you want to know if were you born to be...

Too many teens get comfortable. They get a job, they get comfortable in that job, and then they fail to set bigger goals. Or they go from high school to college not because they want a college degree, but because they're afraid they don't know what to do with their life yet, so college is a place they can feel comfortable, and it's a reason to put off the possible failures that they might have in...

The masses always tell you that you shouldn't care what other people think. They say social media is killing people's confidence, and that people are constantly comparing their worst day to everybody else's best day. But the truth is, as an entrepreneur, you better care what everybody else thinks. Watch now and see why it's CRUCIAL that you care what everybody thinks about you in business!

I don't think it's a problem to think about death on a regular basis, because at least in my life, it's made me really think about how I spend my time every day, if I'm spending time with people who are really worth the short time we have on this planet, and if what I'm doing in my life and in my businesses is truly helping people. …it makes you change your way of thinking. Watch now and see how t...

And because happiness is often linked to reaching goals, since I never actually reach my true goals, I USE TO never allowed myself to be happy. Unfortunately,...

One of the things I've noticed with the team members inside of my companies, as well as with the people on my board of directors, and almost every other successful entrepreneur that I spend time with is that there's 1 thing in everybody's lifestyle that's directly related to their ability to focus. And when they fix this one thing their ability to think clearly significantly improves. Watch now an...

If you're in business and you send emails to your customers or prospects, I'm going to show you how you can make far more money and grow your business faster with one small change. Because over the past 2 years email open rates dropped, click through rates dropped, and email conversion rates dropped.

We use a formula in my companies to determine what we pay people. And this was a game changer for us years back when we started it because everyone on your team will perform better if you pay them what they're worth and that goes for employees, independent contractors, and vendors. But that doesn't mean to overpay them! And this becomes far easier when you offer people structured bonuses along the...

You need to assume that anything a prospect gets from you, or a customer buys from you, they have no idea how to use it. This year when we started including some type of instructions (we call it a Consumption Guide) with every sale, our revenue grew, our stick rate went up, and our refunds dropped. Because people need to be trained on how to best consume your product or service, and it needs to be...

It's human nature to want to take advantage of people, but you know what else is human nature... wanting to help people. The crowd you surround yourself with is going to determine what you think is natural, and it's also going to determine what happens to you. My suggestion is that you surround yourself with people who think the only way to get ahead is to HELP OTHERS get ahead. Watch now and see...

I did a video about how to boost your conversion immediately by eliminating something called DISCONNECTS, and we got a lot of great feedback on that video, but there's something even worse than disconnects in your marketing… …and that's how damn hard it is to do business with most of you. Listen to this as I go into detail about what I mean when I say this, and how it applies to YOU.

There's only two ways to sell anybody anything.

The only TWO WAYS to sell anybody ANYTHING are….  Listen now to see the only 2 ways to sell anybody, anything, that the most successful...

There's not one business book or one business seminar that will ever tell you the truth about entrepreneurship... ...and that's that entrepreneurs live in a constant state of overwhelm, paranoia, and solitude. The best, most successful entrepreneurs are GREAT at hiding this, but we all feel it. Listen now and see how the best entrepreneurs not only deal with this but use it to their advantage...

The biggest challenge most entrepreneurs have is that they're trying to make all the decisions by themselves. Or worse, they read books and they go to seminars, and then they try to make business decisions based on the few things they learn at events. But when you're in business, it's not all sunshine and rainbows. You're going to hit obstacles, sometimes every day! So, listen now and see how to m...

They don't teach true business growth in college. There are no books, or courses, or seminars that teach you what it feels like to be alone and have to make business decisions that determine whether or not your company grows (or stagnates, or literally crashes and burns). And every guru in the world wants you to believe they can teach you how to build a business, and to create personal wealth, and...

There's a big difference between how small companies market, and how BILLION-dollar companies do their marketing. And it's such a big difference that it gives billion-dollar company's a massive edge, and keeps them at the top, while smaller companies are stuck in this rut competing with each other just to maintain the same level of sales, month after month after month. And I don't care if a smalle...

I'm not going to sit here and debate whether affirmations work or don't work. Because there's quite a substantial amount of people who believe that affirmations WORK, and probably the same amount who believe that affirmations don't work. But personally, I believe affirmations have a place in business. Even if it's just to keep you focused on the actions you need to take to get results, or to keep...
