So thanks for having me. Nice. Thank you. Thank you so much So I'd like to start off with a very simple question. How do you become a six-figure earner as a teenager? Well, you got out the right environment. I think the number one thing is definitely environment You know When when you talk about when people talk about you are a byproduct of the people you associate yourself with it is It's actually bigger than than people realize It's not just a matter of just who your friends are and stuff like that It really comes back down to simple things including energy that you're around that will go and actually help you Elevate the way you think about things your paradigm, you know, I remember my mentor said to me even a couple weeks ago He says you change you help somebody Alter change their paradigm double change absolutely the reality, right when I first learned about this industry You know, keep in mind that I didn't really have you know, the tools that a lot of people have today and believe it or not I'm actually grateful the fact that it happened. I didn't have every shiny toy or every, you know Single opportunity that was out there. I just got involved with some people that weren't fine I had I had made up, you know, people that were doing it. They were doing very well doing it themselves and all I did it was just simulate imitate Duplicate exactly what they were doing. So me making a good amount of money back then Was just a byproduct of what everybody else was doing around me. Does that make sense? Yeah, one of the guys was one of the guys was actually making, you know, 250 that a guy was making 500 The lowest guy at our office was 125,000 and at that time six figures was a lot of money and For me, it was just one of those things that you kind of have to do. I didn't know any better I to be honest with you I didn't know I knew that we were not, you know with my family with didn't have a lot of money But I didn't really know how much my dad made So it was actually years later where I felt like holy crap I'm actually making more money than most people that are out there And you know, I could afford a better lifestyle and stuff like that But it wasn't really too later because all I was doing was just simply, you know Emulating and duplicating what people were doing, you know what I mean in the industry. So that's how it happened Yeah, and tell me how did you how did you get yourself around these kind of people though because you know, I start off from a very kind of middle-class background and The highest earning person I knew I knew was like maybe just a guy in high-tech like how do you actually get access to These kinds of high-level people in the first place Yeah, it was interesting because I I actually grew up like a Mormon kid in Utah And there was a guy in my church that I would go to actually had a nice fairly nice lifestyle This guy had a nice black Mercedes and you know, you had a nice home with a pool And you know, it was it was it was interesting that we were even within the same paradigm to be able to go to the same church I mean, you know the same location I mean and it was interesting because one day this guy want, you know, this guy went, you know What's on my parents house and I remember it coming down the stairs and this guy was there You know, and he wasn't there talking to my dad about, you know, that church stuff he was there talking to my dad about financial services and He wanted my dad to do insurance investments and stuff like that it and my dad was an interesting fact He was actually trying to get my dad to work with them and my dad wasn't interested But I was and I remember I remember two simple things. I mean, you know, I don't I didn't I Dude, I had I barely could finish high school for credit. I love right so I didn't really have a high IQ I didn't really have you know, a massive world of opportunities and then you don't have a, you know Anything right, but I remember him telling two things that stuck with me He says to my dad the financial service is a high speed profession And all my dad had to do is get a simple license Right to go ahead and do this and my ears went up and I remember the first thing that I thought about Robbie I was like, oh my gosh, that means I never have to go to school ever Right and I went up to him next Sunday and then you know, that's kind of how it happened And he I said hey teach me what you can do. I will help you I'll clean for you. I'll do whatever it I can and then you know I started going to this house on daily basis and after school every day and that's kind of how I started, you know Falling in love with the industry and then a few years later. I got some licenses But you know, I started making money out of out of the stuff that he was doing because of the fact I was like I'm like I could help you get clients He had a little marketing company on the side that he would actually help people to do Like signage and stuff like that. I said I can help you pay with your marketing and and stuff like that And little by little it started adding up and I remember he's like I can't believe I'm paying you this much I'm like well the business that I'm bringing you it's a it's a lot of business too and that's kind of how I got it started 18 years old now. I met my first millionaire mentor. This is I actually met him at a You know, it was really interesting I had a chance to meet him and Mike's my vision even expanded him in greater Right because he had not only the money But he also had the the skill set and and the mindset and you know He told me Tommy things that I didn't think you needed to go in do with money So many times people think it's just about making money And who makes more money, but it doesn't work that way it works You know what happened what has to happen is you have to have the right tools the right environment. You have to you know Disciplines right that it habits Right, those are the things that he taught me and I was so grateful that the fact that happened And that's kind of how it's you know I started moving out the ladder of my network to the point where you know I'm a dial tone with people even today in the white house and people that are actually in You know celebrities and people that are athletes and stuff like that today and um I personally believe that it all just comes back down to one thing that held me out in my life Which is giving people value. I didn't know that I was doing that You know what I mean when I first met this guy when I was 16 I said What's one thing that you need to help in your house? And I remember going the first time and he says it's a complete mess Right like his whole office. So that was my formula given value. You know what I mean? So in one form or other Giving value is one of the most significant things that I could do for people You know something that everybody now teaches today. I guess, you know what I mean giving people value and I know that's research for me. So Yeah, absolutely. I mean my one of my biggest challenges as an entrepreneur Was like i'm a very value-giving person when you know when I talk to somebody one-on-one I'm usually very good But then once my business kind of grew and got to a point where I actually spend 95% of the day Not talking to To people directly it became very difficult to Figure out how to scale value if if you know what I mean like because you don't have that one-on-one Personal connection you have to kind of trust the people below you to have that with people And I understand you've grown your your company Substantially and reached a point where you're at that point. So you're like the executive now, right? You're not offering people Let's say value one-on-one But you trust to have people I mean unless it's a very valuable client, but you kind of trust people around you to do that for you, right? Yeah 100% and one thing you never want to go ahead and lose it's those it's those things that Will ultimately help you create relationships, right too many people out there are talking about network Right. It's like networking networking and they go out there and they go to events Uh, you know, they how many times have I gone somewhere? You're like, hey, you and I didn't get to connect with each other Here's my business card and I'm like, okay, but What why I don't know you we didn't talk to each other. You know what I mean What you felt like thousands of people, you know do the same exact thing Right. I'm not you know the chance of me calling you are slim to none and the slim's probably, you know Somewhere out, you know, not not not here, right? So One of the things that you I think is very important is for you to be able to go and develop a connection Right, uh, you know and a lot of times you're able to go to do that with a little bit of a vulnerability And intimacy, right a lot of times when we think about intimacy, we're thinking about it in a romantic way But if for example, you've gone through something That I have gone through And you and I can relate that story in similar ways Now there's intimacy between two people I'm most likely to do something greater for you in vice versa If there's some sort of intimacy because there's a level of connection that's in there And that comes through different forms whether that's stories or you know similar stories or similar Similar you know similar ways of growing up Right, those are the things that happens and and so that's that's what I'm grateful for is the fact that I always still today Is still do that and one thing that many people don't do is still are able to be thoughtful, right? Like I'll got for example one of my mentors today. He is a huge fan of alexander de gray He's Incredibly big in greek mythology. This is a guy that you know, really there's most people would be like I can't really gift anything to that guy Right, I can't really, you know, what kind of value can I bring to this guy? But dude, I'm this guy. I was so happy when I would send them, you know, uh, you know Coming from me coming from my heart, you know an item from you know, like a memorabilia or even a t-shirt I would be alexander de gray shirt, right and what that does he helps you create connections with people Right and when you're thinking about that not just the kind of value that you can bring to others But how to go ahead and develop a connection Uh, your odds of succeeding in business overall are a lot higher Doing it that way you're thinking about it from that perspective too Yeah, absolutely and um, I know I know for me one of my biggest breakthroughs was when I just started treating people Kind of in a very blasé way it was actually Like I had a really good period in my business where things just went up very quickly And then I just got you know, how you experience a lot of success You tend to get a bit jaded like in a negative way where You're just not very, um Excited anymore and things are just a bit more boring so I I ended up talking to some multimillionaires like some extremely successful entrepreneurs and I wasn't aware that they were as successful as they were and and uh They responded to me the same way that the regular prospect would And that that kind of gave me the first sign that wait, maybe if you talk to highly successful people Just like you would talk to a regular prospect that you're serving, you know make a connection build value find commonalities They'll connect with you the same way So it's almost like we put this Pedestal on people and you say oh this person is special. We need to I need to treat him differently And then what happens is you you kind of block any chance of a connection actually blossoming in the first place You're absolutely right. I mean you never know and you want to treat everybody with kindness with respect and At the same time treating like they're human beings most of my friends today that are very very successful that We have a very good connection with I didn't know how successful they were when I first met him You know what I mean, uh, you know, we have a friend in common The guy that you had brought up with my buddy that started rsd. Nick. Oh, you know He's girlfriend used to he's you know, he's he's wife at the time Used to work at my company and he's like, hey, I want you to meet my boyfriend You know and then we started making and being good friends and we went out to eat up pf chanks And we just connected that had no idea the size of business that he asked what he did Same thing with my other I have another one of my very very close friends walter brine fifth highest IQ in the world You know at one point was california's youngest billionaire When we first met, you know the first many many times I think for the first two years We just liked each other, you know, we just like he was a cool dude to me and you know, we had a lot of similarities we would always see each other at events one time we go to melz diner and The guy at the host that you know, he's like, are you walter brine? You know the guy from scorpion You know, you see a story story about scorpion. He call, you know, he helps the world He's actually a true story about his life story And uh, you know, I was like, so what do you do bro? You know, and it's like, oh you're scorpion cbs 30 million viewers that I was like, oh, that's you Right, and this was years into it. So yeah, so I guess the point of this is that you never know And you know, you never know not only who they are, but you never know also who they're going to become as well Right, um, how many times have I have I met people before that were in, you know, uh beginning positions in their jobs And then years later, they're the manager of a hotel or something and I go back to the same hotel and They remember me treating them well when they were Burly starting at their jobs, you know what I mean that that happened to me actually in a In a in a hotel very nice hotel in Puerto Rico that I would go to Right, this guy started in us, uh, you know, he was just, you know, can help me you check in He's now the manager of hotel, you know, when I go over there It's like we're like bros because you know, I treated in a exact same way with total respect and stuff like that To the point where if there's no room sort, I'll be treated VIP very VIP Because I build a relationship with them for a very very long time So that's something to definitely keep in mind is that always stay alert with people that you meet Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. I mean for me, I have a rule Uh, when I have a call scheduled with somebody I do the most minimal amount of research possible Like just enough to know, okay, just very generally who this person is Uh, because I don't want to know because I know if I know too much ahead of time Uh, I'm actually at a disadvantage. So it's it's different for people, you know, some people are more tactical Uh, with me the less I know coming in just, you know, just the minimum commonalities the better Uh, and I'm not when I researched somebody before talking to them just like when we talked for the first time I was like, oh cool. We both, you know Had that connection and so that was really good I wasn't searching for like how successful is adam like is he more successful than me or how much money does he have? Like I was just looking for what do we have in common? So I think I think maybe that's a good A good tip for me You know what I mean to be able to and that's that's something that you're striving to go ahead and do is become always genuine Not put on an extra, you know, not add a makeup to the you know, to to the value that you can give them Because the genuinity is enough, you know, I mean and ultimately that's what people are looking for Is somebody to be real with them and be genuine, you know what I mean? And that's something that as people especially successful people Um, you know, that that's very appreciative. You know what I mean when people are genuine with you They're not nice to you just because of you know, who you are or you know What your last name is or something like that, you know what I mean? So it's definitely epic that you have that also Yeah, but I think there's also another element that um is like you need to know your pitch You know what I mean? So you need to like know Who am I what am I here for? What value can I give and you need to have that down like you can you know, pull it up at 2 a.m Without thinking like You need to have that down so well That you can actually connect with that person because then you know when the questions actually come and there's an opportunity to create A value for that person. You're like you're there. So you know what I mean? You can be there with them Uh and and and you know, you've got your ammunition ready 100% man Yeah, cool. Okay. So tell me how how do you actually help people? You know, you said you help them with uh Getting tools of the super rich and you know, I'm I'm honestly not that financial financially savvy like for me My plan is just build a business that makes an insane amount of money Uh and figure it out later after you're uh, you know, just invest everything back in the in the business You're not going to pay a lot of taxes And you know, hopefully make it into into a very very uh successful business and you know, we're about the rest After that, uh, maybe that's probably a bad plan. But uh, it's a good plan But at the same time you also want to be able to go in and have uh multiple streams Not only of income but also of resources and also of things that will go ahead and bring you well to You know towards Uh your life and where you're going with it, you know what I mean? And there's a lot of tools and Strategies out there that you could use, you know, how for me for example as I started getting as I started learning more and more and more and be more Um, if I'm familiar with the industry I learned that the industry only caters to people with a lot of money, right? I'm not talking about, you know guys making, you know, Seven six figure incomes. I'm talking about ultra wealthy people Or ultra, you know, successful companies like Wells Fargo and all these companies out there to help They really help out each other and I was thinking to myself. What about what about average entrepreneur? What about, you know, a small business owner like my dad, for example, right? And the reality of is the fact that most people out there don't know when anything when it comes to money Right if somebody's for example, you know a person that's self-employed At least as somebody who's employed. They already have like a you know, they have some sort of something right at 401k Right and and you know people sometimes, you know, they don't know They don't do the research as far as what are some of the things that they can do, right? They cross their fingers and hope it's going to go on and be there, you know later when they retire They have no idea how it works, right? And ultimately even a 401k, for example, was not created to be a retirement plan It was created to be a supplement for retirement plans, right? And right now if somebody's a business owner, for example, they don't even know what to do or where to go They can try to get create a solo 401k and stuff like that. But you know, even even thinking about the investments that are out there For example, we talked to an average typical person who's you know, who's a 401k and we ask him Let's say what are some of the disadvantages of your 401k? Everybody will say the same thing taxes Penalties age restrictions the fact that if I pull that money out I have to pay that money back, right? Well, there are plans out there Where your money Robbie can actually grow with having to pay taxes You can pull your money out with having to pay taxes You could actually have liquidity up to your first few years You don't have to pay that money back like you would in a 401k Not only that, but there's actually a guaranteed percentage on your money Which means your mark your money is never going to go down in value Right your money. So if there's that you have access to full market potential So the market goes down My clients never lose a dime if the market goes up they still have full market potential Are these products do no they've been around for decades and decades and decades a problem Is that when these plans were created Or we're actually able to go ahead and be only for the ultra wealthy, right? Some of these plans are even, you know, they don't even if you were to go ahead and get sued Right, they don't actually nobody can even touch this money because the Fed is not regular investment type of capital Right. So when when we sit down with with somebody We look at their goals what they want to do how much they want to accomplish And what we do is we formulate like, you know, like sack game plan of execution With the tools and strategies and I've got access to some of the biggest companies in the world Right multi billion dollar companies that will go ahead and give my clients access to those products regardless of what their net worth is So if they are business owners or they are self-employed or they are You know people that are employers or they have employees, for example You know, no matter what it is I I can go ahead and actually help them and I've sat down with countless people People that were celebrities people that were professional athletes after they were done or their contract was up How many this has happened dozens of times Where they're like adam, I knew how to make money. I don't know how to go ahead and keep it let alone grow it Right. So they essentially really need somebody like myself You know or somebody in you know in in in my company to go ahead and help them establish You know a bulletproof type of plan that will help them ultimately Get to where they want to go ahead and get to and what's great about this is that none of this money They don't you know, what's cool about is that in this particular cases Uh, they don't pay me any money. They don't pay any of my advisors any money We do the companies will take care of us, you know enough when it comes to it All we do is I'm a big believer of this is giving people free education showing them exactly what to do with their money No one where to go What are some of the tools and access things that they can go ahead and do and have And with that, you know, we're able to go to really create a nice game plan for themselves and and for their families and ultimately You know the you know the things that they want to do themselves So so for somebody like me who's uh, you know, let's say we've got uh, like three Types of people. Uh, we got the person with no plan and no income We've got the person with high income and we've got the person with uh, good plan, but not high income Uh, what would you say is the right way to go about it? Because I know the way that I operate and a lot of our clients operate that way as well Is basically just focus on Increasing the revenue just building a big business. But that kind of sounds to me like the athlete's story Of course, it's a bit different because I'm not employed by somebody. So, you know, I can't be fired Uh, but at the same time, you know, you never know what's going to happen. So, um What would be the steps? Do you like do you think you first build the income and then you go to an expert or do you think you go to an expert from day one? What would you think are like the right steps? It goes both well, you know both together as a as a twin marriage that You know, your income growth needs to be a Coordination of your conversations with multiple people when it comes to mining different strategies Yes, I I have met people before Where they're like, hey, you know, I have this business. I'm putting a hundred percent of my money into this business and stuff like that But that's essentially putting all your extra one basket, right? That's what it really comes back down to And if that one if that goes away for and it could go down for so many reasons Right and most people are into this human belief. Well, I know that could happen But that's probably not going to happen to me and that's cool Right because sometimes it doesn't happen But reality of it is the fact how many times how many bits have I have I seen where they've been killed by auditors A lawsuit or maybe a downside of the market or the fact that you know the market, you know For example right now with this whole thing with between elections and all those different things There's people that depending on who gets elected that will massively affect their business Because of the way they do things, right? So if they're just doing it with their business and they're like, you know what thousand bucks comes from here I can use a hundred to eat and the nine hundred dollars will go to my business That is a plan But if you're able to go ahead and really sit down and say, okay, I need to allocate this money for this I need to allocate this money for this growth and be able to go ahead and have a diversified portfolio You know, then you're able to go ahead and have it so that way if that one thing breaks You know, that's not your only thing, you know what? I mean, you're able to go ahead and do that and you and I've talked to these two people in the form of Their business or at the same time where they're putting all their money into their house Right, because sometimes people do that. They're just doing different forms They're like, I want to put every single dime that I have into my house And you know so I can pay off my house like that used to be the american dream Right, but then what happens, you know, then now their money is attached to their house or like their business Right and and that's what it's attached to and that could happen many many things But if you have multiple spare tires, multiple floaties around your around your boat Right, you know, if you were to go ahead and have a massive yacht You don't want an execution boat. You know, if you could afford you could you could have a heli So if turbulence comes you're able to bounce out of there, right? You're able to go ahead and do that So you won't have the mindset of being able to go ahead and have multiple windows I always talk to people about multiple windows if you have one big window at your house and that could be your business or your Whatever it is if somebody breaks it you have to replace the whole window But if you break that and you separate those into multiple little squares If somebody breaks one window, you're like, okay, well that happened But you know, I have many other windows that I can go ahead and have I see to replace that one little you know what I mean, so Yeah, I think one of the most inspiring sentences I've ever heard was from Grant Cardone where he said You want to create a situation where no single disaster or even Multiple disasters together Can destroy your financial status Yep That's uh, I mean that that's an insane like Is it is it like a you know, uh Like a pipe dream or something and only I mean, do you need to be like a seven eight nine figure earner to create a situation like that where You're protected from you know many many uh angles or is that something that's like actually Don't do it correctly What it does is how many people throughout my career I have met them where they were making a lot of money, but they were just really broke at a higher level Because see what happens when people make more money? They end up getting the bigger house and that I'm getting the faster car and it is we're at the end of the day I mean, I I literally know people today that are struggling to go ahead and actually Be able to go ahead and take their girlfriends out on dates because the fight that they're like their lambo payment just came in You know what I mean or their house or you know, these things have happened So I don't really see people thinking about it from a wealthy perspective Now, that doesn't mean I'm asking people to go ahead and be like the millionaire next door We're you know, like like an old warren buffet where you've been driving the same car and let us, you know Have that very very Kind of you chill lifestyle. You don't need to be a spicer Right, you need to be able to go ahead and really think about it from that perspective Where you need to have two types of things, right? Like you want your life to be exciting your investments to be a little bit boring sometimes Right where your hours can be your investments can be, you know, uh, you know Timely right where you can go ahead and think about the long term of games So your mindset that can go ahead and be like a Ferrari that needs to be tortured business But there needs to be one that is essentially growing And that's also, you know, kind of having that quantum growth All the time for people to go ahead and do that because ultimately what you're looking for is you're looking for the number Everybody has a number Right, what is your comfortable number that it would I look at partners for example and business partners? That's one thing that I asked like what is your number? What are you comfortable with? Right and and I want to know what their comfort level is going to go ahead and be but because people do come to a point Where once just like just like rappers were to hit their first album And you know, you would never see them anymore Right, there's people out there that once they make a certain amount of income They're like, I don't really have to go through that So the reason I believe why you don't see people much more successful Is because they become very contempt With their lives or the way they are and the way it is and they're like, you know, the the greedy button is not really there Right, you know, we have two little bones here. My mentor told me this one of them is your greed button The other one is your heart button Right or your heart is what makes you keep going but there needs to be a greed button as well That keeps you moving forward that keeps you building right and when people ask you Or you got to have this in mind where you know, anybody that you talk to they have this little thing in their In their foreheads that says what's in it for me? Right, so you got to you you got to figure out all the time What do they want right and my father said this to me years and years ago He says you never know a person until you know what they want Because it is how what they want that ultimately will show you their true colors and that's not a bad thing That's a great thing because ultimately people can be genuine and honest about what they want to do And you have yourself out to be honest about what you want to do, you know to to yourself You know, I mean, yeah, and what and what do you want adam? What do I want for me my for me the most important thing right now that I'm that I'm working towards For the last 10 years. I would say I've been in cruise control In my life and because of the fact I love to travel. I love to hang out I love to you know, like giving with this kovat thing. It wasn't really that much different, right? I've been you know, I travel nine ten months out of the year And but at the same time what I want is ultimately for people to have had some sort of impact in my life Right, like for example, one thing that's very important to me. I remember being asked, you know, this question was somebody years ago And and uh, whether it's me or my company. I want people to look back and say hey I'm adam farfin before I don't know if we ever did business, but you know what? I'm a better person because of my association with that guy Right, or I'm a better person because of my association with you know, with his company and the things that you know He taught or the values that you know that would have go ahead and bring on you know what I mean So that's ultimately right now. What's important to me? I am having a total humanistic type of conversation. I am very much You know thinking about the longevity of life That's something that's a very, you know big motivator in my life today I know that we're living longer than ever And uh, you know, we're living, you know, you know, kids that are born today are going to live to you know, right now Somebody a baby that's I saw this in time making the other day. So whether that's born today is going to live to about 130 Obviously that technology, you know gets better and better and better You know the advances will make so that we're going to live few hundreds of years old So for me All those little things over a lot, you know the year 2000 has made it so that I am You know kind of excited. I'm reaching out to people I am you know, I it's not just about having a you know, great life for myself Which I've been able to build but at the same time, you know a legacy, you know, I mean Having something that builds, you know, that has a leg of its own that I built. So that's what I'm excited about Yeah, and and luckily you have that uh, ultra recognizable beard That I noticed you've had for like eight years or something I saw your pictures from like many many years ago and The the crazy thing is you look exactly the same in terms of the like the makeup and everything Yeah, it's it's pretty cool. You've got like a recognizable thing going, you know So when you're when you're like a billionaire or something, I think people are just going to instantly recognize your face Yeah, I mean I've had I was I always look at pictures. It's so funny. I literally looked the same as I did So many years ago and I'm like exactly the same Maybe maybe it's hanging out with celebrities. It's just like you you Get there, uh, you know, their youthful effect or something Yeah, I heard some some of that says the the number one Rejuvenating thing and the world has to offer us money. That's what I heard I don't know if it's true I mean if you all you have to do is look at pictures of people like uh, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk Look at them when they're younger And look at them now like all of them look much better. It's almost like the more money you make Yeah, the better you automatically look you have like that smile of like Says money I I love that. So I I I I know we can wrap up with something really cool. Um, I've I've another really cool quote that I heard from Grant Cardone, which really kind of You know those things that you hear that just like bump you in the head and just stick with you like glue was he said that The best thing you can do for yourself financially is create a situation where When you're having a bad day You know, sometimes you have a bad day and you need something to pick you up Create a situation where anytime you have a bad day Just you open up your bank account or you open up your you know, your whole checking and and Your financial situation and that that's what gives you a good That's what puts you in a good mood. So you could have a bad day You know, everything's not working, but you open up your bank balance. You're like, yeah, you know that Oh So so that's a reality. There's something you think average people can can actually aim for and strive for I the number one thing that I get in my social media the question that I get asked a lot is how do I motivate myself? and I really think My the atom at one point that was very driven And why was that atom far from driven the atom far from was driven because he hated the reality that he lived in Not heated it because it was the pressure or anything like that, but you look around you, you know, I always tell this to people you right now You know Look around you. Do you like what you see? Right go to your car before you walk into your car. Ask yourself. Is this what I like to drive? Right before you walk into your house. Ask yourself. Is this where I should live? It's where I want to live And then look at yourself in the mirror go to the first bathroom at your house and ask yourself Is this the person that I wanted to become And those things are not where you want them to be that's enough motivation You don't really need a book anymore. You know, I mean all those things are great But the biggest motivation that you have Is to be able to go ahead and really not have the things that you want in your life right as far as from From uh, you know from having a bad day I actually have this written in my in front of my on my book is I mean from as my screensaver It says your ability to manipulate obstacles in your psychology is the difference between being power being having having power and having weakness right like how do like I you have to be able to psych yourself out and Because your body and your reality ultimately Here's everything that's in your head. Even if you don't say it a lot. It's listening to you all the time So if you really switch your mode and you're able to manipulate those feelings and you know, I know many people probably You know, I wouldn't agree with this. I don't know But the reality of it is the fact that I know many many successful people You kind of talk yourself to get back in You know what? I mean, it's not so much about how you feel But it's about the kind of reward that you're looking for Right, you know, the kind of game that you want the kind of bank account that you want and all those different things Even by what grant like you're saying grand set is looking at your bank account You're ultimately really like telling yourself you're psyching yourself into You know the future the father I have this I can have more and I can build this and I can go in and help any more people Right, you're ultimately not just letting your feelings sink into you But you're ultimately chasing a different feeling and letting those old belief systems and those old things, you know Get out of you. I believe we're perfect the way we are. I believe that You know our maker or whatever it is people believe in right it made us perfect But there was one little thing in our software, which you know was brought into us, which is feelings And it's been said the fact that you know, the best we're able to go out and master our feelings the most successful will become In our personal relationships in our businesses with our friendships, right? They revel, you know, and become the same master Ah being able to go ahead and master those feelings because you'll have them every day, you know If you if you're in pain that means you're alive. So be excited about it. You know, yeah Yeah, for me, I mean Like I've I've been through insane ups and downs and and I've been terrified most of my life just to be honest like I've I took huge risks in my life All the time and I I just spent most of my life terrified And at some point I just said to myself it's like this realization that came to me Yeah Because of the stress because I had no choice because I was so overwhelmed all the time that I just said, okay from this point forward The mindset is this No matter what happens, uh, you cannot fail like as long as you're alive As long as you have you can talk or ride or or even communicate with your hands like As long as you're not dead You cannot fail like no matter how bad things get how what happens like you can always Try again, you can always do it again And and I've had to like study comeback stories, you know people like Nelson Mandela, you know Who went to jail for like 27 years And came back and and and became one of the most powerful people in the world um So yeah, I mean it's it's it's it's 90 percent in the head like for sure. It's um 100 percent. I mean 90 100 percent of winning Is is mentally people suffer more in their minds than they do in reality You know, uh, just like you need to if you win in your mind and you win in your head and You're able to go ahead and do that all the time, you know, you're everything changes I mean, I'll give you I'll give an example to wrap this up. Um You know, uh, last week I had all my stuff stolen, um in south beach my Information my laptop my iPads my literally I don't know why I took this to the to the pool to this really nice fancy pool And when I went to jacuzzi somebody just literally grabbed all my stuff including my IDs and everything else and A few days later. I'm like literally soaked into this and I'm like I cannot believe this happening to me Right. This is insane And I started thinking about a friend of mine that I look up to who has a massive multi-million dollar business And I'm like, oh my gosh, would he be feeling this way if this happened to Right and then after that I started thinking about it. I mean, I'm like this probably kids Problems compared to the stuff that he's gone through So if I want to get to this situation, I want to you know what I mean have this This needs to be something that I got to overcome This wasn't something that I heard it was it was just something that I told myself In the moment that that happened my paradigm about it. It was done. I contacted my attorney said, you know what? Let's let let it all go Let's just I need to move the chapter and if you go and move forward and it was so funny because it was instantaneously That weight kind of came off of me, right instead of thinking to myself. Oh my gosh, and Oh you what you learn is that ultimately that's how life is it is your paradigm That you live in that will alter your reality of the you know the way that you live So that's what I'm grateful for is being able to go in and always be able to adjust that You know to the point where you know you're looking for example all these different guys that are successful What's the big difference? Right just like what is the big difference between somebody who has who makes $50,000 a year and a $500,000 a year guy The difference is just a little bit more You know, right? They you know the guy that goes to bed just goes a little bit later He wakes up a little bit earlier. He shows up a little bit more He makes that one more phone call In little by little their income just starts growing as opposed to the guy that just decides to not do it Right many many many people that are listening or watching this. So you ask yourself that very successful people What's the difference between you and them nothing? Sometimes it's not like there's our you know Beautiful human beings avatar looking dudes Right for crying out loud. What's the only difference of what what happens in there between their two years That's the only difference between you and them Right and that's what happens The crazy part is the they don't necessarily even like go to sleep later work more They they might even be working like half the hours that you are Uh, they just think much bigger in the first place So it's it's crazy like uh Yeah Like you you think bigger like what you did with the The theft incident And then you raise your life circumstances And then that helps you think bigger and then So it's like you just like bounce between the two all the time Yeah, if your life's not going up your thinking needs to go up And then when your thinking goes up your life's going to go up and it it just kind of bounces between the two Yeah, I started with a mastermind alliance in my mind I had a few different people that I I would love and people that I wanted to meet in my life or in a couple of them Were not even people that were alive anymore And the biggest thing that helped me in my life in my business is asking myself What would this person do What would so and so do in this particular case? Kind of like what I did with this particular case that happened to become a week ago It's what would so and so do and you could do the same exact thing Right like when you go through a problem, you know, uh, you know, you mentioned for example grant a law Right, so grant somebody by me somebody that you might look up to so when you're going through things ask yourself What would grant do in this particular case? What you'll find Is that you are able to go in and actually simplify your problems a lot and you're able to solve them a lot better By you know that way, you know what I mean? I I do just to wrap up. I know we've kind of went a bit overboard, but um, I actually it's really embarrassing, but I Anytime I'm in a really bad place. I'm the kind of person that just doesn't go to people for help I'm kind of I like to consult myself. I think you're like that too to some extent um What I do is I I literally just put on my headphones We go take a walk across the street Sometimes just get a cigar or something just take a walk across the street And I literally start talking to myself So I would literally like walk in the street and I'd say okay now you're in this situation What do you think about that and I would like be extremely animated? I would be like Almost as if I'm in like this super intense conversation and imagine like I'm walking on the street I have headphones so everybody's gonna naturally assume I'm talking to somebody else And and I literally would like coach myself through problems By just getting really intense and talking to myself and then By taking it out of my head Just like what you do is you kind of project to another person I would literally like just talk to myself and I would but because you took it out of your head you're able to look at it more objectively and Suddenly like boom like like situation. I could never resolve like at the end of the world You know, I spend five ten minutes just walking around the street just talking to myself and suddenly Epiphany comes and and it's like I have the exact solution to the problem I love that. I mean, that's that's definitely a you know Awesome strategy to do. It's kind of like meditating when you're talking to your higher self Right. Have conversations with your like with your better self, right? Like Your better self ultimately will help you make better choices, you know People always say be yourself for yourself like yourself as you're going into where you want to be at But who you want to become who you want to emulate who you as if Right that person is going to give you a much better advice than the one you could give yourself, you know From the guy before so that's pretty awesome Yeah, yeah, because I I'd have the thoughts in my head and when it's in your head There's nobody to counter it because it's like in a bubble But then when I'm speaking it I'm kind of projecting as if I'm talking to somebody and then I I'll say something low vibration Like some really stupid thought and I said, oh, no, that's stupid. That's not true And I would like argue with myself and and that would be like the higher self talking with the lower and again, you do you do the same thing where you kind of Think things but then you project them against like a successful person that you appreciate and and and then That person says like that's not that's stupid. I wouldn't do that And uh, so that's so cool, you know or or again if you're able to access like a high level person Uh, that's also really good Yep Awesome adam, uh, so just to just to finish up.
