 All right, welcome back to the channel. My name is Ben neighbors and if it's first time watching one of our videos Make sure hit that subscribe button at this point we are close to 400 Videos uploaded to this channel, which is crazy to me I never thought when I saw my first video that we would get to 400 videos and now I have the mindset in Five six years from now probably at 4,000 videos. All right, so if you are subscribed, thanks for hanging with me Thanks for paying attention to the videos we've been putting out recently and I've gotten a lot of great feedback from coaches. That's why I've been pushing harder recently to upload more, right? Now in today's video, it's a little bit different But I know this is going to be very beneficial for you Whether you already have a business or If you work in nine to five job and you're looking to start business But yesterday I got off a call with a coach he was applying for our Consulting program and in that program we help coaches in a group setting and we help them start their business Grow their business scale their business. That's something we've been doing For the last couple years now, and it works very well for those who are very committed, right? And while while I was on this call I asked the coach, you know, how committed are you and he was like, you know what? I kind of want to just do this as a side hustle and I know when someone says something like that. That's For me a warning sign that all right, well, I just want to do this on the side to make a couple of extra bucks Now here's the deal All right, and I'm not picking on this guy because you might watch the video But I will say this so so this helps you if you think that way Anytime you tell yourself. Oh, I'm gonna do this as a side hustle You're already telling yourself and you're like conditioning your mind that this is just going to be like a side project and When it's a side project, I'm not going to give it my full attention. So we never know the potential of A side hustle because we are just giving it a little bit of attention All right, just kind of put it off to the side and we'll spend time on it when we want Versus committing to it and I have seen this and I've seen this like clockwork Over the past couple years coaches who approach their business that way, right as a side hustle It's not a business Right. It's a hobby. There's a clear difference between having a business and Having a side hustle side hustle can can be something that can produce income That doesn't take a long time to to spend with every week, right? And here's why I don't like that. It's because You know, you have something and you're telling people that you're working on something But you're just not giving it the full attention that it deserves and When you treat it like a business Like you don't you don't tell people you have a side hustle like for me I don't tell anyone that I have a side hustle on YouTube Right. I don't tell anyone. I have a side hustle with our consulting program All right. That's my business. All right. I don't tell you what I have a side hustle training kids That's my business. All right, and it requires putting in time and what I've noticed is Those who say oh, it's I want that to be my side hustle. They're they're very Non-committal right, but they're like that with everything They're not just like that with work or business. They're gonna be like that with everything They want to just dip their toe in they don't want to jump it All right, so I want you to ask yourself If you're in the position right now where you're thinking yeah, I want to make this as a side hustle I promise you I am not someone who can help you and there's not going to be Any other business coaches out there who can help you unless you change the way you talk about what you do Right, even if you have one client actually even if you have zero clients When someone asks you what what you're working on or what you're doing. I Have this business. This is what we do right when you project confidence To someone else that gives you more confidence that what you're doing is the thing that you want to do It's not this little side project Right, it's not a side project. So next time someone asks you Right, you need to step up with confidence and tell them what you do And don't tell yourself don't tell people that you're doing this thing on the side Right because what it does is it subconsciously it gets up here and it makes you feel like yeah This this can't be a full-time thing and I promise you that's one of the biggest reasons That's that stops a lot of coaches and trainers from going full-time It's because they think that they can't do it and they think it's only something they can do on the side I've talked to hundreds of coaches who've asked me big. Can I do this full-time? Like how is it possible? Well first we have to stop thinking of it as a side whistle And we have to approach it as a business And when you approach it as a business you give it its full attention right give it full attention and I know if you're watching this video and you think that you have a side hustle right now Trust me. You don't have a side hustle. It's a hobby right and Let's take that hobby and turn it to an actual business though like we have to think different we have to behave different We have to be doing different things During the day and it all comes down to how you approach it right, I can't for example, I can't do these YouTube videos and just wing it Right takes a lot of preparation Can't just wing it me and cowboy don't just laugh in the afternoon and say, haha Let's come up with this video tomorrow. That doesn't that doesn't work that way Right everything is planned out, but it's like that with with everything within my business every email Like if you're on my email newsletter, you know, I I send a bunch of emails, right? I send a bunch of emails It's like that with the website. It's like that with the consulting firm everything is planned out So everything requires a lot of time. It's not a side hustle Right, so you are officially not doing a side hustle anymore. You are running a business That's the way we need to think that's how you're gonna move forward With what you're doing and that's how you're gonna break through the glass ceiling Right, and I'm gonna end on a story here A couple years ago, I was contacted by a coach and He told me those words. He was like, yeah, I have a nine-to-five right now and I'm doing soccer training on the side and I said, okay Well, how many hours per week are you coaching kids and he said three? I said, okay great And how much income is that Jerry and he said six hundred dollars a month He's doing group training He was making around six hundred dollars. That was when parents were actually paying and Then I was like, okay. Well What's stopping you from doing this full-time and he said well, I just don't think I can Generate enough to replace my nine-to-five income and then I asked him what the nine-to-five income was and he said it was around $3,000 a month All right, so three thousand and he was doing around six hundred and his side hustle, right? And so we I broke it down and I was like, whoa You know, what if you were training? Like ten to twelve sessions a week and we had you've had a lot more clients. Don't you think you can do this full-time? And he was like, yeah, but you know, I just don't know if I'm gonna have time to do that I was like, of course you think that because right now you're just doing it on the side right Right now this guy Like he quit his job six months after we start working together He's doing around 12,000 per month Right Now Did that happen overnight? No He had to change the way he thought about His side hustle. It's not a side hustle once we started working together. It was a business Right. It was very clear that he had a deadline that he needed to meet So he could quit his job and once he quit his job Guess what? He had so much time now to devote to his business and while he had his nine-to-five job He started spending a lot of those hours during the day while he was at work working on his business So he could get away from the thing he hated and he'd move towards the thing that he wanted to do So that should show you right when you think small that you'll get small results When you start to think bigger, all right, you can absolutely replace your your income with your job, right and He's making four times the amount that he used to make work working a nine-to-five I promise you he's working less than he was when he's working at a nine-to-five. So that should show you, right? There's zero glass ceiling Unless you tell yourself that this is a side hustle and I promise you those are words I would avoid I would stop saying that and We are running a business Like you have a business and it doesn't matter to me if you have zero clients or a thousand clients You have a business All right, approach it that way show others confidence when you talk about what you're doing and that gives you more confidence up here All right to know that what you're doing. It's a real thing Right. It's a real thing. It's not this like girl that you hang out with it two o'clock in the morning Like three times a month Right, that's not what this is. This is a business We need to treat it like a business and we need to approach it like a business And you need to start thinking that way and when you do that, right you get better results Take it more serious All right, that's it guys. Hopefully this helps and Let's treat it like a business coming up And if you're you have this side hustle mentality you have to change promise you I promise you you have to change And I know a lot of coaches that watch my videos They have that mentality or they have a business right now and they think there's a cap of what they can do There's zero cap Zero cap and if you want to break through whatever that glass ceiling is that you've put over your head reach out to me That's what I do. I help coaches do that my numbers two one zero nine six zero five seven seven one Reach out to me text me. All right. Shoot me a text. We'll schedule a quick call together I'll see how I can help out and we'll move forward from there. That's it. I'll see you later
