 In this video, I'm going to give you some relationship advice. Now, why would I be giving relationship advice? What does it have to do with this channel at all? The reason I'm going to give you relationship advice in this video is because a previous client of mine and I had a chat and obviously your relationship is going to be a huge effect on your business and the way I conduct my own marriage, by the way in terms you don't know that I'm married, is very different than the way a lot of people do. And the way I've built my marriage is in a way where she helps me achieve my goals and I help my wife achieve her goals. And we have a very strong relationship where we both empower each other. There's no arguing, there's no drama, no problems. And in this video, I'm going to explain how to do it. It's actually very, very simple. So the concept I'm going to teach you today is what I call mastermind meetings. So what are mastermind meetings? Every single week, I sit down with my wife and when I say every single week, I mean every single week, no matter what, I sit down with my wife either on Friday or Saturday or Christian on Saturday or Sunday and I talked to her about our relationship. We have a business discussion, almost a business-like meeting about a relationship. Not a fun meeting, not a date, we have a talk, not about us but about our relationship because in any relationship there's basically you, there's the other person and then between you two there is what's called the relationship and the relationship is something that you two created together and that you both work for. Just like when you have a company and people work in that company, they're working for the company and for themselves. So you put in the relationship and you get more back just like a business. You put in effort and you get your rewards back. And your goal as a couple is to keep magnifying and improving and making better the relationship. And how are you going to do that if you guys each act as two independent people which is what most often happens? You have a couple and they're both totally independent people, they don't get into each other's business, they don't share their life goals, they don't have assured plans. The best thing you can do is not an independent relationship where it's like you're one and she's one and together you're one plus one. Which means you're equal to. The best type of relationship is when you're interdependent, when you're dependent on her and she's dependent on you and you're both creating a situation just like in business where you're partners where you actually have shared responsibilities and shared mutual goals. And in that situation what happens is one plus one equals 11 because you two are multiplying each other's efforts. You're actually driving each other and motivating each other and helping each other stay focused again just like a good business partnership but this is a life partnership which is even more important. So what do I talk to her about in these mastermind meetings? Three things. One is plans for the week and let's call it gripes. So anything that's negative on my mind. Number two, we talk about finances. Why? Because finance is very important. And three, we talk about intimacy. So the first stage of the mastermind meeting we talk about this week. We say, okay, we're going to enter into a new week. What are our plans? What are our goals? What are we going to accomplish this week? What are things? What is something that I need you to help me with this week? What are challenges that are going to come up this week that I need your help with? What do I need you to come with me for this week? Some events, something that I need you to attend and to make sure that you have set on your schedule. What are my expectations for you for this week? So this is the first part of the meeting. It's more of a logistical part where we sort of sync up our expectations, our plans, our calendars. And then the next part is we talk about our gripes. So gripes meaning what happened this week, this past week that annoyed me, that I wasn't comfortable with, that I would like you to improve. What happened this week that I would like to improve for next week? And we talk about these two things. And what that means is that we're in sync. We both expect the same from each other. We know what we're expecting. We know what are our goals. And it's all written down, by the way. Every single thing we talk about is written down. Every single agreement we write it down. Why? So we can look back and refer to it if we have a disagreement or if we need to make sure, be reminded about what we discussed. So this is the first part. Second part is we talk about finance. Meaning we talk about money. Money. How much money do we have in the bank? How much money do we have in investing? How much money do we want to have? How much money are we going to spend? Money. We're living in an economic planet and you need to take care of your money. If you don't take care of your money, you're not going to have any money. And if you're going to take care of your money, you might as well try to multiply it. So this is what we talk about in that part of the meeting. Make sure that we're straight up on finance. Why specifically finance? Very simple. About 80% of all divorces happen because of financial issues. So it makes sense to focus a lot on it. Especially if you also have big goals which need to have money to get financed. So number three, we talk about intimacy. Intimacy is the less business side of the meeting. It's where we talk about how have we been this week? How intimate have we been? Do we need anything emotionally? Is there anything lacking? Maybe physically, maybe emotionally, maybe in terms of our connection. This is the part where we bear out our emotions and really make sure that our connection, our deep level connection is good. It's there. We both have what we need. And that meeting helps us stay satisfied on that side. Which again, most couples don't take care of and which results in cheating, which results in dissatisfaction and so on and so forth. So we do these every single week. Now what do you think is going to happen when you do that? I'll tell you a secret. My relationship did not start at good. Me and my wife were two very different people with different goals, different communication style, different upbringing. We came in as completely different people. But we both were committed to this relationship and we both sat every single week and improved it. And what happens is every time you do this mastermind meeting, your relationship gets 3% better, 5% better. And when you do that every week for a year, for 52 weeks, what happens is the improvements start compounding. And then your relationship starts from bad, to good, to amazing, to freaking incredible, and it only gets better from there. So this is why you want to make sure that you do it every week. If you have a partner, if you have a relationship, a girlfriend, make sure you do these meetings every week. And again, I'm not talking about some guy who just bangs chicks or has a side girl. I'm talking about somebody. If you're a guy or a girl and you have a serious relationship or a marriage especially, you got to get this shit handled. We even talk about kids at this point. We talk about how we're going to raise our kids, how we're going to treat our kids. These are things that are going to prevent conflicts in the future. Then make sure they were focused and we're together and we're harmonious and synergetic and other really good words. So thank you for watching. Hope this video came at a good time and helped you.
