 All right, what's up, coach? Welcome back now in this video. All right, this is something that a lot of coaches talk to me about They'll they'll be like, you know When I tell people about what I want to do or that I'm a trainer. I get weird feedback Or people ask what are you gonna do in the next couple of years like a lot of people on the outside can look at This business as like a hobby or side hustle And the reality is a lot of coaches that I know make more money than lawyers and doctors I talked about this on Instagram the other day. I put a vote I said, do you think coaches can make more money than lawyers and doctors? The vast majority of people said yes people who said no Don't think that because they don't think it's possible But I want to start this video off with you know If you approach someone who's like, yeah, like, you know What are you gonna be doing in the future or are you gonna be doing this for a long period of time? like You don't have to to be negative when someone says that like your response should just be bold and be like Yeah, this is the business that I'm running like and at the end of the day Anyone else's opinion about what you do in your business shouldn't matter unless they are ahead of you in business Right, I would repeat that. No one's Opinion of your business should matter unless they are ahead of you and they're giving you advice They're giving you critical advice and feedback All right, so what a lot of people like to do. All right, my favorite Show that I've ever seen is the last dance and There's a clip in there where where MJ talks about like how you know He made up like he made up a story that this guy said something about him and then like that next game He like destroyed him And he had this imaginary chip on the shoulder now Personally, right And this is one of those things it's You know if you wake up in the morning, you have a chip on your shoulder that that can be good that can be bad I'm not here to say if you should have a chip on your shoulder or not because like Everyone is different Like there are some people who get motivated and it makes them more disciplined it gets them fired up to work harder But the thing is is like if you're doing something for a long period of time like It's gonna be hard to have the same chip on your shoulder for 10 plus years right, so sometimes you might have to Change what that the chip is or not have a chip on your shoulder at all and What I've realized over the past I've realized this more of the past year of my life I used to have different chips on my shoulder like people who doubted me people who like I don't know It was just like this negative thing that I used for motivation. I Don't need that anymore because what I've realized is like That was so long ago That has zero impact on me anymore, so my thing is it's really more of a game It's how can I be better today than I was yesterday? That is the chip that's on my shoulder at this point, right? How can I improve month after month? How can I refine things? How can I make things better? How can I make things more organized? How can I make things more streamlined? so again, you can have a chip on your shoulder, but Like at the end of the day Anyone's opinion like I said at the beginning anyone's opinion about what you do does not matter unless they're ahead of you Right and this goes straight into the second pointer, right? And all three of these relate to each other But at the end of the day like just think about this Do you honestly think that? People wake up in the morning thinking about about your business. No, no one cares about your business Like even if you work with me if you're a part of my program, of course, I care about you succeeding But like I'm not waking up in the morning thinking. Oh, man. I hope this person is Doing what they're supposed to be doing right now. No, I people are too selfless to care about how your business is going Or if you're in business or if you want to go in business or if you want to stop that you're busy like there's so many different things that and a lot of coaches We think too much about what others think about and at the end of the day, like you need to stop doing that people are too selfish to care about how your business is going so this is another reason why like if you go in a conversation with someone and You feel like they're not respecting what you do, which is very common with coaches I hear this all the time coaches tell me well, like I talked to this guy at Thanksgiving or I talked to This person and they were like, oh, what are you gonna do in the future? Because like you're just coaching right now, right? You're just doing lessons, right? Like the average person does not know that this can be a really successful business if someone's doing it for a long period of time And at the end of the day, this is why like the approval rating you should not care What other people think and at the end of the day people don't care about what you do they don't like They really don't the only person that might care about what you do is your wife Or if you're a woman coach listen to this if it's your husband Like outside of that like no one cares No one cares no one's waking up hoping that your business fails, right? And last thing here This is this is something that I've had to learn just with experience is people who don't own a business don't have an opinion on if you should start a business right and Guys I see this every single day Every single day coaches text me. Hey, I'm thinking about doing this but this person said or these people said or My film the blank said like and It's almost like a lot of people need the approval of others before they start something like which is the worst way to think and I'll give you an example of something like four months ago I Had this idea that came in my head and within 30 minutes. I set up that business Didn't talk to anyone about it Didn't get the approval from anyone. I didn't go like I Didn't do anything other than I just started it Right and The thing is is normally when you ask a lot of people who don't have a business when you ask them for advice What they tell you will get in the way of your decision-making? because they will Tell you to not do Things because they have not done it themselves and I have other videos on YouTube where I talk about How people who don't have skin in the game? shouldn't give you advice and This is why you should seek out people that do have a business and only talk to them about business related questions And it sounds so simple, but so many coaches don't do that They Taught to family members. They talked to Billy Bob down the road that has never had a business in his life They they want their friends to know what they're doing and all and all of your friends Are working nine to five and then most of them are gonna be jealous that you're starting a business because they don't have the nuts to do it and When you ask them about it, they're gonna give you bad advice right and This is the thing to I've said this before If I talk to a coach that's you know, they're like, yeah, I really want to start my business. I'll be like great go through My startup program that's gonna show you how to set up your business And coaches who do that typically get their business set up within 48 hours if they just follow the steps and Then oftentimes when I talk to coaches, they're like, yeah, do you think I can succeed in this business and I always tell people I always say, well, I don't know Why are you asking me? Are you asking me that question and this is the thing is Coaches want the approval rating. All right, they want their approval rating to be high and We you know want others to be excited about what we're doing and give us the approval You don't need that to succeed Right don't need that to succeed now. I hope this video helps because like They're I think it's natural at this point to just always think. Oh, well, I hope this person likes me I hope this person Thinks highly of me by the end of the day All right, people are too selfish to care about how your business is going All right. Now if you want to connect with me, there's two ways you can do this Monday through Friday, I put out these stories on Instagram and Literally, I have an iPhone 4 and I take a screenshot at Or take a photo. It's a black photo and I type I type some messages on there that I feel like can be very helpful for you I ask questions.

I gave you the wrong handle. So I apologize about that, but it's too late Or you can text me at 21 0 9 6 0 5 7 1 All right texting is the fastest way Honestly, like I use Instagram for probably 30 minutes a day. I create my Stories I post them there and then I check them. I check to see if there's messages Like I don't post anything else outside of that. I don't follow anybody.
