 All right, what's up guys now? I Tried shooting this video a couple times and for some reason my computer did not allow me to do this so I've been meaning to put out this video on YouTube and I know right now. We're in a crazy time right if you hit the pause button right now and you check the date All right today's Monday. I Believe it's March 16th 2020 and this is a really crazy time that we're in all right the coronavirus is spreading Here in the US the economy is going nuts People are freaking out and I wanted to Come on here Over the next as many days as I need to and provide support and provide confidence and Really step up here on YouTube and not shy away. You know, I want to really lead you through this opportunity that we have coming up and What I want to do though is like I want to be is up front and Honest as possible Over the weekend I was like man like this stuff is just nuts and I started to think really negative I Started to think man, like what's gonna happen? Like how is this gonna affect? everyone's business Like right now we have 85 coaches that are part of our mastermind from eight different countries So I know in every country in the world like we're all going to feel What's happening right now with this virus that's spreading? Whether you think that or not like I mean, that's my opinion. I think that's gonna happen I mean in the US we're already seeing that if you look at how it's what if you look at what is happening with Restaurants like restaurants are going to get pummeled They already are right now And as they start to shut things down here in the US like there's going to be a steady decline in Business right so what I wanted to do those, you know after the weekend I was like, you know what like I need to step up and I need to Help those who are on YouTube who are not part of our mastermind and also our mastermind members I want you guys to watch this video and Know that there's really two ways you can handle What's going on right now? Alright, and I'm gonna go through this piece by piece This might be a really long video, but I will tell you this is going to be the most important video I ever put out on YouTube and I say that with confidence because This is going to really test a lot of people mentally right even those who have great Tactics with their business. This is going to really mentally test a lot of people out there and I want you to go through this video piece by piece and I promise you if you text me over the next year and you say, hey, you know I'm going through a problem with my business right now or this is happening. I'm going to send you back to this video Because I know that this situation sucks. There's nothing I Can do about it. I can't go stop the virus. I'm not a doctor. I'm not a scientist I'm a business owner and there's two ways I can think about it though I can either like create during this time or I can complain and I know you know over the weekend when I was sitting down I was moping around a little bit and I started to to check myself and I was like, oh my gosh like I'm doing what normal people are doing right now I'm complaining and I'm thinking of excuses so I had to quickly get outside get out of that that mindset and Think, you know what I need to step up here that this is my responsibility as a business owner and As someone who has been helping a lot of coaches worldwide We've gotten great results in our mastermind. I know right now. This is this is on me to step up and help you So wherever you're watching in my role, just know that everyone's going to feel what what's happening with this virus Everyone has to go through it. It's not like it's not like I'm Living on a mountain and I don't have to deal with anything or as your responsibility I have the same level of responsibility as you do Right. I got to wake up the same ways like the same way you do. I have problems the same way you do Okay, but with that being said I want to clearly break down the two types of people the two types of business owners That are going to thrive during this time and those who are going to die You know when I mean die, I mean like your business is gonna be dead in a couple months from now Right and I don't say that to scare you I say it because I know what's gonna happen I I know it because I know how fragile some people are when they run into a problem They they turtle up they get afraid They get scared and then someone like me who sees the opportunity is gonna come in and take all their clients Right and trust me there's someone like me in every city Most cities around the US right now coaches that are part of our mastermind if they're in your city I I would be terrified if I was you because they're gonna come swallow up all your clients All right, that's if we all have this mindset that I'm gonna talk about here in a second. Okay now If you look at what's going on Right, there's not gonna be really any gray area. This is black or white Okay, and I will say 99% of human beings are Going to do what I'm about to show you All right, 99% people complain during this time and what happens is when when you start complaining you blame the situation So you start blaming other people and When you do that you're automatically negative and when you're negative it's impossible to succeed Because you're worried you're freaking out you're in panic mode. You don't know what's gonna happen and you spend all of your time thinking about the possible future Right, and you think all of your time about you know just being negative While someone else could be thinking positive during the entire time where you're negative, right? Now this is gonna sound very blunt, but I don't care. This is my YouTube channel. I can say whatever I want Right, if you're stuck in old business methods, like if you're getting cash Check if parents are paying you on been mo if You have not followed what we've talked about on YouTube Where I've said hey go get Sam cart. Hey run your billing recurrent. Hey have a six to 12 month Commitment if you have not followed my advice on that your business is absolutely at All right, you are f'd and You can spell that out All right, your business is screwed if you are not if you have not set your business up that way Expect the next couple of months to really suck All right, because here's why Right now they're shutting things down in the US. All right. I can't say what's happening across the whole world I'm focusing on what's happening here. All right, but what's happening here is they're shutting things down Which is going to make it very difficult to have face-to-face interaction. So if you get cash checks Then mo stuff like that Expect that all of your clients are not going to pay you because they're not going to see you and if they can't see you they can't pay you and This is why I can count at minimum a hundred times a hundred videos on YouTube where I've talked about Don't get stuck in old business methods like Do things where it's seamless do it where it's easy like have a higher have clients who are who are more committed When that happens, right when you run into a problem like what we're facing right now Not really gonna make that much of a difference All right Now without being said Business owners who start complaining what they do is that they think all right. Well, you know This sucks, but I'm still gonna spend money on stuff that I want to spend money on like they're gonna try to go eat out They're gonna try to go Buy stuff online. They're gonna try to go. They're just irresponsible with their money And if you're not on a budget, like I know part of our mastermind program It shows like hey, like this is how you keep track of your money Like this is what you need to do. This is how you keep track of your taxes. This is what you do and Coaches who are prepared for that sort of stuff like this this time is not meant to start spending more money Like that's that's the dumbest thing you could do in This situation we want you to save money and I'll talk about it here in a second. All right And then lastly what complainers are doing is they think very short-term. They think oh, man this this sucks really bad right now, it's never gonna get better and You know, I think I might need to go get another job But the problem is where are you gonna work? All right, I want you to think like if you can come up with a list of 10 places that you could go work out and you Email it to me. I'll give you a thousand dollars Like who's gonna hire you during this time? Everyone's shutting down Like So that should not be an option for you and if you're going to that option that's telling me that you're already playing on quitting All right, and this is why I wanted to create this video on YouTube because most people who run into obstacles they automatically fold and In the 1% of business owners who write it out they They write it out. They stick with it and they end up thriving All right, and let me just give you a good example. I want you to think about Let's take the company Amazon All right, let's let's look at Amazon for a second when Jeff Bezos started his company And if you don't know what I'm talking about just go look it up But when he started out like it was him he was in a little office and I want you to think about how much adversity he's faced over the past 20 to 30 years however long they've been in business Right. I can guarantee you right now like he's probably not enjoying what's happening right now But he's already been through so much adversity To where like this is not really gonna make that big of a difference like financially it might but they're gonna come back stronger They're gonna write it out. You're not gonna see Jeff Bezos quit Right, you're not gonna see me quit. I've been through a lot of adversity, too I've already shared what those things are on this channel if you haven't seen them go watch older videos Right, you can see it there Okay, but if you think short term you're out, but problem with that is Most people who start business think short term So what's gonna happen is like the the coaching slash personal training industry was going like this It was trending up over the last I would say the last four years. It's been trending up right now What's gonna happen is it's going to quickly hit a plateau and it's going to start to dip Because all of those who start who are short term thinkers all of those who are reliant on coach up Every coach on coach. I've been screwed right now. I'm just giving you that this is the reality All right, every coach who is getting cash and checks all those coaches who are doing things the old way the way I've preached on here day and night over the last four and a half years about not to do All right about what not to do and about what to do Like I'm telling you like this is gonna be a really tough time But if you think short term All right, you're gonna get short term results and you're gonna get out and that's why you're gonna be writing the trend down While those who are still in right now there went when things start to normalize And I can't say when that's gonna be but when that happens They're going to take advantage of whatever's happening right now and they're gonna make that a huge opportunity Right now that is what The creators are gonna do right they they stick it out long term now. We've already covered what the complainers do, okay? If that's you I'm telling you you're gonna have to change your mindset There's nothing else I can tell you other than you got to change how you think and You got to look at this as an opportunity and not an obstacle All right, and before I talk about the creators. I'm gonna say one last thing I see so many people on Twitter over the weekend They're like, oh if we have to stay inside over the next week or over the next month I'm just gonna watch a lot of TV. I'm gonna watch a lot of Movies I'm gonna catch up on on movies. I haven't seen dude. What a waste of life If that's you right now, you're gonna lose If that's how you're gonna be spending your time, you're gonna lose All right, I promise you that that's that's just not gonna work. You need to be productive with your mind Cuz I let's go back to the Jeff Bezos example You think he's gonna be at Netflix right now like oh, I can't wait to watch one tree Hill. No he's not he he's in create mode and It's why I want to create this video. All right now. Let me show you what I'm doing and What I would say most coaches in our mastermind hopefully everyone is has this mindset and I will say like Most people on the planet don't have what I'm about to say All right, and I mean that because because I taught the coaches all day long Like I thought the coach is all day long. I know what happened over the weekend Coaches have sent me messages freaking out about what's happening about what to do about you know, how to handle this and You know a lot of people are panicking right now and they should be if they are not ready Right It should be Okay, but those who create what they do is they take self-responsibility. That's what I do Like no matter what's happening in a role. Like if there's a nuclear bomb that went off right now I'm gonna be like, okay. Well, what do I need to do? I'm not gonna say. Oh, why did that happen? I'm gonna say what do I need to do? What can I focus on right now? That's going to be positive Right and I know that no matter what happens around me. I don't have control of that I can only control what I can't control and that's gonna be my mindset right That's on me. No one can do that for me Like my wife can't can't do that for me She can't wake me up and say hey I need you to wake up today at four o'clock in the morning for the next 90 days and make sure that you're doing everything You need to do no I need to do that. It's my my responsibility right So I had to take self-responsibility for everything good or bad. It's on me. That's part of running a business That's why a lot of people are gonna get screwed over the next, you know foreseeable future Because they're not gonna take self-responsibility. They're gonna find ways out and again It's gonna leave that's gonna leave more food on the table for people like me Better in your area All right, the next thing that creators do is they innovate they look at what's happening. They're like, okay hmm, I can go online now and Still service my clients, which is the thing I'm showing our coach in our mastermind how to do right now That's gonna be my priority until this all this passes is to show coaches exactly how to do that step by step All right, and the cool thing is coaches that have taken action on that in the past are already doing that They're doing online consulting with players worldwide. They're doing online mentoring They're creating online digital products They're they're doing all this other stuff online like there's coaches who've written books that are still selling right now During this time They're gonna be able to maximize book sales, especially during this time because a lot of kids don't have anywhere to go They're gonna be stuck inside right so We want to innovate and not just be like all right. Well let's just try to write it out and and Cancel all of our memberships for the next several months. No That's not what we're gonna do. We're gonna write it out. We're gonna innovate We're gonna we have to think differently about the future and That way guess what when something like this happens again because it probably will right It probably will in my lifetime Then we're even more prepared for something like that and then that way when that happens everyone's gonna be like Okay, good like we've already we've already gone through the coronavirus now. We're on to the next thing And fine like we're good because we have all this stuff set up All right, that's how I think Okay, and lastly here Coaches in the training industry that have a business That are going to succeed here. They have long-term vision. They know that like this is just gonna be part of the game and it's a mental test and Those who think long-term will win as Opposed to those who think short term if you think short term promise you you're gonna be done quicker than you know And that could be in the next couple of days Right, and I'm not on here scaring anyone. I'm telling you the truth Like if you don't if you don't think what I'm talking about is real like Again, you can go go look up and see what's happening in the restaurants right now And this is on Monday. I'm looking at the date March 16 All right, we're on the 16th. This is very early on in the coronavirus stuff Right and as things ramp up on the media as things ramp up In the world with you know, what that's getting crazier There's gonna be two things you can do you can either complain or you can create and Whichever rabbit hole you decide to go down Just know that when you choose one, you're gonna be stuck there So if you go to in a create mode, you're gonna be stuck there, which is good if you go in a complain mode, you're stuck there your business is going to die and I can't say this lightly other than you know, I Feel sorry for those who are going to be complaining during this time But at the end of the day, I'm gonna be sitting back and I'm gonna laugh about it because I'm gonna know that there's gonna be more opportunity for me There's gonna be more kids. I can help in my area From from a dark situation like this. I'm gonna look at the positives All right, so if you have any questions if you're like man like I Need to make a change here.
