 More and more and more and happy I guess it's Tuesday morning. I always I wanted to bring up a topic of how is your energy level. I believe that energy is everything. I've been sharing that on some videos. I've been sharing that on some shows. I've shared that on some live training events that we've done recently. I truly believe that energy is everything. So I want to make sure that as an agent, as a salesperson, that your energy is always right. What do I mean by that? Every single morning there are a few things I try to make sure that I do so that my energy is right throughout the rest of the day. I'm in Winsville, Missouri. I'm going to visit a company about some marketing and Legion here this morning near St. Louis. I am at the Hampton Inn in the gym in the fitness center. Let me give you guys a quick peek of what we're talking about, what we're looking at. Pretty nice fitness center for a hotel, dumbbells, some cardio equipment, machine, and I'm focused today on getting my energy level right. As I really feel like every entrepreneur, business owner, salesperson should always focus on getting your energy level right throughout the day. So there are a few things I do to get my energy level right and I want to share those with you really quick because I know that they can be valuable for because they're working for me so I know they can work for you. Give me a thumbs up or a yes if you guys can hear me, if you're here, if you're watching, drop me a name in a city maybe or a stage so I know who's watching and where. Always a big help, so thank you, thank you. One of the first things I do is I write down my goals every single morning and every single night now twice a day because I've got specific targets and goals that I want to achieve, okay? You've got specific targets and goals in your life and in your business that you want to achieve as I'm sitting here riding the bike here this morning. What are those goals and targets? How do you stay focused, accountable, extremely attentive to those and how does that continue every single day, right? So every single day of 2019 it's already June 25th, I believe, of 2019. This year has flown by and if you're not accountable to what's going on in your business in your life, right? If you're not attentive, if you're not focused on achieving something every single day before you know it, the whole year will be gone and we will have achieved nothing if we aren't focused on achieving something, okay? So I wanted to, not only that, but I also have to get my energy level up to start every single day. When I get my energy level up, I have a better, more productive day. My energy level's not up. I have a negative, whiny, less productive day and when my energy level's up and what's funny is I've noticed when I work out that if, that I'm more positive, more productive and again a lot more done, but when I'm not working out every day, I notice that I'm more likely to be more negative or to say something that I shouldn't say or to, you know, not get as much done or to push work off on other people, okay? So I don't know if you're like that, but it's human nature to kind of be a little lazy, I feel like, unfortunately. So that's why I'm focused every single day on making sure my energy level is right. I'm doing everything I can as I turning up the resistance on my bike. So that I can do everything I can to be, to have productive, great days. I believe you get one first impression. A gym is my must every morning. What's up, Nate? Hope you're good, bro. Dude, I know you are, man. You're always doing the thing, man. Constantly, right? And people notice, right? Not only people notice, but you notice throughout your day that you are more productive. Yeah, give me a thumbs up. Let me know your name, where you're from, so I can see who's watching. Okay? It's a must every single day. What's up, Spencer from Ohio? Hope you're good, man. Thanks for jumping in. I know that before I go speak, okay, because I speak at conferences, I do breakout sessions. We do live training events around the country. I do videos, live videos, shows. Aaron from Iowa, what's up, man? Thanks for jumping in. We do a lot of different things, and there's two things I always do. If you've ever seen me speak, or if you've ever seen me at a breakout session, or a conference, or came to one of our live training events, we'll be going around the rest of the country later this year, okay? If you've seen me at one of those, there's two things I always do. Okay? The first thing is, I go right before I speak, five to ten minutes before, I go and find a empty room, even a fitness center, just anything in anywhere, a stairwell, doesn't matter. And I focused on getting my blood flowing, okay? My heart pumping, my energy moving because I speak better when my energy is right, okay? I train better when my energy is right. I'm more positive, I'm more fun to be around. I'm more connected to the audience, okay? I've learned that, what's up, Honeybird Music? When I am more productive, when my energy is right, I have better presentations, better speeches. And so if you ever feel like your energy is low, that's the first go-to for me. When my energy is low, okay? I like to work out. When my energy is low, I like to do these things that I'm talking about, to get my energy up, to get my blood flowing. If your energy is ever low, and you're feeling kind of negative, feeling kind of down, you're having a bad day, okay? Or you're gonna have to go speak in front of one, few, or many people. I go do jump and jacks and run around the room and stretch and do high knees and butt kicks and all that kind of stuff because and even jump squats and all kind of stuff. If you're jumping in, let me know what city you're from. Because when I do that, I have better presentations, okay? We've learned from our live events, we get 20 people in the room, and my energy is right. It is a fantastic event, okay? North Carolina, I love it. When when we do those things, we should have free live training in Charlotte earlier this year. I think last month, when those things are right, I perform better. So there's another thing, right? That's why I love to work out. I so love to get my energy right, okay? I also love to I'm starting to realize that, hey, food is, there's a couple, a couple more things, okay? Food is fuel. I love to eat, set up a little bit of breakfast every morning, give my metabolism going. I wouldn't used to eating breakfast, you see, I'm not used to doing it, you know, you do whatever you want to do, I wasn't used to doing either. Most people use the excuse of, I'm not doing something now, because I'm not used to doing it. Well, no crap, we're not used to doing it, we're not doing it, right? How would we be used to doing something that we aren't doing, okay? I also try to eat a little lighter for lunches most of the time. Because with lunch, I'm learning food is fuel. There's a lot of people in our country that don't use it as fuel. They use it as a, you know, depression mechanism or eating a bunch or whatever, okay? So I love food is fuel. When I eat better, I feel better. Funny how that works. I also, when I, I noticed about me, along with goals, working out food, that when I drink a little bit of espresso in the morning, it gets my, just wakes up my body and my face in my mind a little quicker. Okay? And if I don't, I'm gonna get a caffeine headache, right? Can't agree more from Navel. My diet and workouts are on point. My cells seem to go up, skin looks healthier, and confidence is through the roof. Dude, it's crazy how that works, man. I'm a believer. I'm a firm believer that that is extremely important, more agency to focus on that stuff. And the ones that get annoyed by this are gonna be the ones that tune out and can't keep up with Nate in cells. I'm just telling you, if your energy is lower, you're lazier, you're less productive, you're more negative, all those things, okay? So if you ever want to dominate, hit your goals, hit some targets. Those are some of the things that I like to do throughout my day to make sure that I'm staying focused on the task at hand. All these things I'm talking about, going to conferences, going to retreats, going to masterminds, learning from other people, reading books, audio books, and all these other things I'm telling you right now, I didn't used to do. The last 12, 18 months, I've done them and I've done them in a big way. And I've been more focused. And I think you guys can tell those have been following me for years. I've been on YouTube for three and a half years. I'm the overnight success, they call it, with the largest YouTube channel for training insurance agents with over 8,000 subscribers, being insurance agents around the world. And I've pumped for three and a half years, we just looked at the day, the first 12 months of me using YouTube first, first 12 to 18 months of me using YouTube. I was getting no views, hardly any views, not a lot, the first 12 to 18 months. Okay. But by doing these things, the last 12 to 18 months, I've started thinking bigger. I started being more creative. I've started getting more focused. I've started getting more aggressive. I've started doing more things like traveling the country. I've started doing more things like throwing a conference. I've started doing more things like starting a call center. I've started doing more things like reading a helicopter when we're at a retreat after doing more things like recording, recording, attention, getting ads. Because my mission I write down every morning, every night, call it cheesy whatever you wanna do, right? We get negative comments every single day. It doesn't bother me anymore. Well, when I work out, it rolls off. When I don't, I'm negative about it, okay? So catch me on a day I don't work out and you'll hit'll, and I'll probably pay attention to it, all right? So what I notice is that I'm more productive, focused, attentive, I have better days, better weeks, better months, better years when I think bigger, when I do things that other people don't do, okay? So at the end of the day, I wanna challenge you to do things that other people aren't doing, to think bigger, to think about implementing all these things into your business so that you're focused, attentive, your energy's up and you're more productive, okay? So if you're not in my success society, it's a private inner circle, right?
