- 1:24vision so let's talk about
- 1:27goals you can't attract success without
- 1:30clear
- 1:32goals you've got to have a destination
- 1:34in
- 1:35mind a lot of people make the mistake of
- 1:38wandering through life without a clear
- 1:41Direction and they wonder why success
- 1:44seems
- 1:45elusive I'll tell you why success
- 1:49doesn't come to the wandering it comes
- 1:51to those who are clear about what they
- 1:55want and are willing to pay the price to
- 1:59get it
- 2:01now what is that price it's time effort
- 2:04discipline
- 2:06sacrifice but you have to start with
- 2:08that first step know what you want if I
- 2:12asked you right now what's your goal for
- 2:15the next 5
- 2:16years could you answer
- 2:18me could you give me a clear specific
- 2:22and compelling
- 2:23answer because if you can't then I can
- 2:26tell you right now you're not going to
- 2:29attract
- 2:31success you've got to be
- 2:34clear Clarity leads to action and action
- 2:38leads to
- 2:40results when you know what you want the
- 2:43path becomes
- 2:44clearer now don't get me wrong the path
- 2:46won't always be easy in fact it rarely
- 2:49is but you'll be moving in the right
- 2:54direction and that's what
- 2:56counts success comes to those who are
- 2:59willing to take cons consistent
- 3:00disciplined action in the direction of
- 3:01their goals even when the going gets
- 3:04tough and believe me it will get
- 3:10tough but here's the secret tough times
- 3:13don't last tough people
- 3:15do that's why becoming a person who
- 3:17attracts success is so
- 3:20important you've got to become tougher
- 3:22wiser more resilient the bigger your
- 3:25goals the bigger the obstacles but the
- 3:27obstacles are not there to stop you
- 3:30they're there to make you
- 3:31stronger years ago I was broke I was 25
- 3:36years old and I had
- 3:39nothing I mean nothing in the bank
- 3:42nothing in my pocket and not much hope
- 3:44for the
- 3:45future but something happened to me that
- 3:49changed the course of my life
- 3:51forever I met a mentor Mr cha and Mr cha
- 3:56told me something that hit me like a ton
- 3:58of bricks
- 4:00he said Jim if you want things to change
- 4:03you have to
- 4:04change if you want things to get better
- 4:07you have to get
- 4:09better that was a
- 4:11revelation I had been waiting for my
- 4:15circumstances to change but what Mr cha
- 4:18taught me was that it wasn't about my
- 4:21circumstances it was about
- 4:23me I was the problem but I was also the
- 4:28solution if I wanted to attract success
- 4:30I had to become the kind of person that
- 4:33success would be attracted
- 4:35to so I started working on
- 4:38myself I started reading books listening
- 4:41to seminars seeking out mentors doing
- 4:44whatever it took to improve my mindset
- 4:46my skills my
- 4:49habits and slowly but surely things
- 4:52started to
- 4:54change why because I was
- 4:57changing and that's the key my friends
- 5:00success is something you attract by the
- 5:02person you
- 5:03become when I changed the opportunities
- 5:06changed when I changed the people I met
- 5:10changed when I changed everything
- 5:13changed but it all started with
- 5:16me let's talk about
- 5:19habits because if you want to attract
- 5:21success you've got to cultivate the
- 5:23right
- 5:24habits your habits determine your future
- 5:30you can have the best intentions in the
- 5:33world but if your habits are out of
- 5:35alignment with your goals you're going
- 5:38to
- 5:39struggle think about
- 5:41it if you want to be physically fit but
- 5:44you have the habit of eating junk food
- 5:48and skipping the gym are you going to
- 5:50get fit of course
- 5:52not the same is true for
- 5:55Success you can't expect to be
- 5:57successful if your habits don't align
- 5:59with SU
- 6:00success so what are your
- 6:04habits successful people have success
- 6:07habits they read they plan they take
- 6:11action they review their progress they
- 6:13get up early they stay
- 6:14focused they are
- 6:17consistent and that's a big one
- 6:20consistency it's not about doing
- 6:23something great once in a while it's
- 6:25about doing the right things day in and
- 6:28day out
- 6:30success isn't built on occasional effort
- 6:33it's built on consistent
- 6:35effort and I'm telling you that's not
- 6:38easy it's easy to get excited for a day
- 6:43maybe a week but can you stay excited
- 6:45can you stay committed for months for
- 6:49years that's where the magic
- 6:51happens it's in the
- 6:54consistency but here's something
- 6:57else not only do you need
- 7:00the right habits but you also need the
- 7:04right
- 7:06mindset your mindset is like the soil
- 7:09where everything else
- 7:10grows if your mindset is negative if
- 7:13it's full of Doubt fear or limiting
- 7:15beliefs it's going to be hard for you to
- 7:17attract
- 7:20success you got to believe that you can
- 7:23become the person who attracts
- 7:26success you got to believe that you're
- 7:29capable of achieving great
- 7:32things because if you don't believe it
- 7:35no one else will now don't get me wrong
- 7:38belief by itself isn't
- 7:41enough but belief is the
- 7:45foundation it's where everything
- 7:48starts you have to believe that your
- 7:50life can be different that your future
- 7:52can be better than your
- 7:55past I'm sure you've heard the saying
- 7:58whether you think you you can or think
- 8:00you can't you're
- 8:03right it's true your mindset shapes your
- 8:08reality if you believe you're stuck
- 8:11you'll stay stuck but if you believe you
- 8:13can grow you will
- 8:16grow that's why becoming a person who
- 8:19attracts success starts with
- 8:22transforming your
- 8:24mindset so how do you do that you feed
- 8:28your mind with
- 8:30information you've got to be careful
- 8:32what you're letting into your mind
- 8:34because your mind is like a
- 8:36sponge it absorbs everything around
- 8:41it if you're surrounding yourself with
- 8:43negative people with pessimism with fear
- 8:47guess what that's going to shape your
- 8:50thoughts but if you surround yourself
- 8:52with positive influences if you read
- 8:55books that inspire you if you spend time
- 8:59with people who challenge you to be
- 9:00better your mindset will shift it has
- 9:06to you'll start thinking differently and
- 9:09when you start thinking differently
- 9:12you'll start acting differently and when
- 9:14you start acting differently you'll
- 9:18start attracting different
- 9:20results Now relationships can be a big
- 9:23part of
- 9:24this the people you surround yourself
- 9:27with have a massive influence on who you
- 9:29become
- 9:31if you're hanging
- 9:32around with people who are negative who
- 9:35don't have goals who are content with
- 9:39mediocrity it's going to be hard for you
- 9:41to attract
- 9:43success you've got to surround yourself
- 9:46with people who lift you up people who
- 9:48inspire you people who challenge you to
- 9:52grow people who are on a similar path of
- 9:56self-improvement there's an old saying
- 9:59show me your friends and I'll show you
- 10:01your
- 10:03future it's true you become like the
- 10:06people you spend the most time
- 10:08with so if you want to attract success
- 10:12take a look at your
- 10:13circle who are you spending time
- 10:16with now I'm not saying you have to cut
- 10:19everyone out of your
- 10:21life but I am saying you need to be
- 10:26intentional about the people you allow
- 10:29to to influence you surround yourself
- 10:31with people who have high standards
- 10:34people who are going somewhere people
- 10:36who believe in your potential because
- 10:38those people will push you to be
- 10:41better and when you become better you
- 10:46attract
- 10:47better when I started working on myself
- 10:50I noticed something interesting the
- 10:53people around me started to change not
- 10:55because they were changing but because I
- 10:59was
- 11:02changing some of the old friends I used
- 11:04to hang out with they weren't interested
- 11:07in what I was doing
- 11:09anymore they didn't want to read the
- 11:11books I was reading didn't want to talk
- 11:12about personal development success or
- 11:15big
- 11:17ideas and I I realized
- 11:21something not everyone is going to come
- 11:23with you on your journey to
- 11:26success some people will stay where they
- 11:28are and that's okay but you've got to be
- 11:31willing to let go of relationships that
- 11:34hold you back if you want to move
- 11:37forward you see every relationship is
- 11:39like a force either pulling you up or
- 11:41dragging you down there's no middle
- 11:45ground so ask yourself are the people in
- 11:49my life pushing me toward my goals or
- 11:52are they pulling me
- 11:54away be honest with
- 11:56yourself if you're serious about
- 11:59becoming the person who attracts success
- 12:03you need to align your relationships
- 12:05with your
- 12:07Ambitions now I know that's not always
- 12:09easy sometimes it's painful but success
- 12:13requires
- 12:14sacrifice you can't hang on to
- 12:16everything and expect to move
- 12:18ahead when I started hanging out with my
- 12:21mentor Mr scha he introduced me to a
- 12:23whole new group of people people who
- 12:26were achieving people who were
- 12:28successful
- 12:30and I'm telling you that CH that changed
- 12:35everything I saw how these people
- 12:39thought how they acted How They Carried
- 12:42themselves they were disciplined focused
- 12:44generous and optimistic they believed in
- 12:46abundance not scarcity and that kind of
- 12:48thinking it rubs off on
- 12:53you I started to think differently dream
- 12:58bigger and act with more purpose why
- 13:02because I was around people who were
- 13:03already living the kind of life I wanted
- 13:04to
- 13:05live so ask yourself who are you
- 13:08learning from who are you modeling your
- 13:11life
- 13:12after if you want to attract success you
- 13:15need role models who are already
- 13:18successful success leaves Clues my
- 13:21friends you don't have to reinvent the
- 13:23wheel find people who have already
- 13:25achieved what you want to achieve and
- 13:28learn from them study their habits their
- 13:32mindset their
- 13:34routines success is predictable if you
- 13:36follow the right patterns that's what I
- 13:39did with Mr
- 13:40cha I followed his lead I listened to
- 13:44his advice and it changed the entire
- 13:46trajectory of my
- 13:49life let's talk about value if you want
- 13:52to attract success you need to become a
- 13:55person of
- 13:57value success isn't attract to people
- 13:59who are just taking up space it's
- 14:02attracted to people who are adding value
- 14:06to the world and here's the key the more
- 14:10value you add the more success you will
- 14:14attract but what does it mean to add
- 14:16value it means solving problems it means
- 14:20helping others it means contributing
- 14:22more than you
- 14:25take successful people are problem
- 14:27solvers they find find ways to improve
- 14:30the world around them they bring
- 14:32Solutions not complaints they see
- 14:35opportunities where others see
- 14:37obstacles so ask yourself how can I add
- 14:42more value how can you solve bigger
- 14:44problems how can you contribute more to
- 14:47your job to your business to your
- 14:50community when you become a person of
- 14:53value people will seek you out
- 14:56opportunities will knock on your door
- 14:58why
- 15:00because the world rewards those who give
- 15:04more than they take and remember this
- 15:08the size of your success is directly
- 15:11proportional to the size of the problems
- 15:13you solve if you solve small problems
- 15:16you'll have small success if you solve
- 15:19big problems you'll attract big
- 15:24success but here's something else to
- 15:26keep in mind becoming a person of value
- 15:29you isn't just about solving external
- 15:31problems it's also about working on your
- 15:34inner self your character your integrity
- 15:37your
- 15:38ethics people who attract lasting
- 15:40success are people who live by a code of
- 15:43values they don't cut Corners they don't
- 15:45cheat they don't deceive they operate
- 15:48with
- 15:49Integrity why because trust is the
- 15:52foundation of all success if people
- 15:55can't trust you you won't get very far
- 15:57you might achieve some short shortterm
- 15:59gains but it won't last true success
- 16:03lasting success is built on trust so be
- 16:07someone people can
- 16:09trust here's what Mr cha told me he said
- 16:13Jim the way you do anything is the way
- 16:16you do
- 16:17everything that means if you cut Corners
- 16:20in one area of your life it's going to
- 16:22spill over into other areas if you're
- 16:25dishonest in one aspect that dishonesty
- 16:30will seep into other parts of your life
- 16:32you can't compartmentalize your
- 16:34character so if you want to become a
- 16:37person who attracts success start by
- 16:40looking at the small things are you
- 16:43keeping your promises are you following
- 16:45through on your commitments are you
- 16:48doing your best even when no one is
- 16:51watching because it's in those small
- 16:53daily decisions that your character is
- 16:56built and your character is what
- 16:59ultimately attracts or repels
- 17:04success now I want to talk about one of
- 17:07the most important qualities that
- 17:08attract success discipline without
- 17:12discipline you won't get very far
- 17:14discipline is the bridge between your
- 17:16goals and your
- 17:18achievements it's the ability to keep
- 17:22going when the initial excitement wears
- 17:24off it's the ability to stick to a plan
- 17:27to stay focused even when distraction
- 17:29come your way and I'm telling you there
- 17:31will always be distractions there will
- 17:34always be things trying to pull you off
- 17:38course but discipline is what keeps you
- 17:41on
- 17:42track discipline is what separates the
- 17:45winners from the losers the successful
- 17:49from the
- 17:50unsuccessful most people give up when
- 17:52things get tough but those who attract
- 17:57success they keep going they have the
- 18:01discipline to do what needs to be done
- 18:04even when they don't feel like it they
- 18:07understand that success is not about
- 18:08feelings it's about principles it's
- 18:11about doing the right thing day in and
- 18:13day out whether you feel like it or
- 18:15not now discipline doesn't come
- 18:17naturally to most
- 18:19people it certainly didn't come
- 18:21naturally to me but here's the good news
- 18:25discipline is like a muscle the more you
- 18:28practice it the stronger it gets you can
- 18:31build your discipline over time just
- 18:33like you build your physical strength in
- 18:38the gym it starts with small decisions
- 18:42maybe you wake up 30 minutes earlier
- 18:44than usual maybe you stick to your
- 18:46workout routine even when you'd rather
- 18:48stay in bed maybe you finish that
- 18:50project at work even though you're tired
- 18:54each time you make a disciplined
- 18:55decision you're strengthening your
- 18:57discipline muscle
- 18:59and over time it becomes
- 19:03easier but here's something else to
- 19:05remember discipline is about
- 19:08self-respect when you discipline
- 19:10yourself to do the things you know you
- 19:12should do you're respecting yourself
- 19:15you're saying I'm worth the effort my
- 19:18goals are worth the effort and when you
- 19:20respect yourself others will respect you
- 19:23too that's that's another key to
- 19:26attracting
- 19:27success people are drawn to those who
- 19:29respect themselves who have high
- 19:31standards for their own behavior so if
- 19:34you want to attract success raise your
- 19:37standards expect more from yourself
- 19:40don't settle for
- 19:44mediocrity here's another powerful
- 19:46principle that will help you become the
- 19:48person who attracts success and that's
- 19:51patience you see success doesn't happen
- 19:54overnight it's a process not an event
- 19:58and
- 19:59most people get frustrated because they
- 20:00want instant results but the truth is
- 20:04Success takes time it's like planting a
- 20:07seed you don't plant a seed today and
- 20:10expect a tree tomorrow you water it you
- 20:12nurture it you give it time to
- 20:15grow the same is true for your success
- 20:19you've got to be patient you've got to
- 20:21be willing to put in the work and Trust
- 20:23the
- 20:25process patience doesn't mean sitting
- 20:27around doing nothing it means continuing
- 20:30to work continuing to
- 20:34improve continuing to take
- 20:37action even when you don't see immediate
- 20:40results it means understanding that
- 20:42every step you take is moving you closer
- 20:44to your goal even if the progress is
- 20:46slow too many people give up too soon
- 20:50because they are not patient enough to
- 20:53see the fruits of their labor but
- 20:56success belongs to those those who are
- 20:59willing to wait who are willing to stay
- 21:01the course who are willing to keep
- 21:05going patience my friends is a rare
- 21:09quality in today's world we live in a
- 21:11time where everything is instant instant
- 21:13communication instant gratification
- 21:15instant access to information but here's
- 21:17the thing real
- 21:20success the kind that lasts isn't
- 21:24instant it's gradual it's built Brick by
- 21:27Brick over time time and the only way to
- 21:30see that success manifest is to be
- 21:32patient with the
- 21:34process there's an old saying haste
- 21:37makes waste when you rush through the
- 21:39process you miss the lessons you miss
- 21:42the growth and ultimately you miss the
- 21:45success but while patience is important
- 21:48it doesn't mean you sit back and wait
- 21:50for things to happen patience is about
- 21:53understanding that while you work the
- 21:55results will come in due time it's about
- 21:58trusting that your efforts will compound
- 22:00That's The Power of compounding my
- 22:02friends the small things you do
- 22:06consistently over time create massive
- 22:10results just like planting that seed if
- 22:14you water it today and the next day and
- 22:16the day after that eventually it grows
- 22:18into a strong tree same principle
- 22:21applies to your success every effort
- 22:27every disciplined action
- 22:29every small Improvement it all adds up
- 22:32and that's why patience combined with
- 22:34consistency is a recipe for
- 22:37Success now while we're on the subject
- 22:40of
- 22:41patience let's talk about
- 22:45persistence because if patience is the
- 22:47willingness to wait persistence is the
- 22:51determination to keep going no matter
- 22:53what you can't attract success without
- 22:56persistence life is going to test you
- 22:58you there will be setbacks there will be
- 23:01failures there will be moments when you
- 23:04question whether it's all worth it but
- 23:06I'm telling you I've learned persistence
- 23:10always pays off always the difference
- 23:14between those who succeed and those who
- 23:17don't is often just one thing
- 23:21persistence successful people aren't
- 23:23always the smartest or the most talented
- 23:26but they are often the most persistent
- 23:29they refuse to give up they refuse to be
- 23:31discouraged they keep going no matter
- 23:34how hard it
- 23:36gets tell me are you willing to fail on
- 23:40your way to success are you willing to
- 23:42keep going even when things don't go as
- 23:45planned because I'll tell you right now
- 23:48if you're not willing to persist you
- 23:51won't attract success you've got to be
- 23:55resilient you've got to have grit you've
- 23:57got to be willing
- 23:59to pick yourself up every time you fall
- 24:01down success doesn't go to the person
- 24:05who never fails it goes to the person
- 24:07who refuses to stay down so when life
- 24:10knocks you down and it will get back up
- 24:15dust yourself off and keep moving
- 24:17forward that's how you attract
- 24:21success now here's something else about
- 24:24persistence it's not just about working
- 24:27hard it's
- 24:29about working
- 24:31smart persistence without strategy is
- 24:35like running on a treadmill you're
- 24:37working hard but you're not getting
- 24:40anywhere you've got to be persistent
- 24:42with purpose you've got to have a plan a
- 24:45road map you've got to know where you're
- 24:47going and then adjust your course as
- 24:50needed sometimes when something isn't
- 24:52working it's not because you're not
- 24:54trying hard enough it's because you need
- 24:56to change your approach
- 24:59persistence doesn't mean doing the same
- 25:02thing over and over again and expecting
- 25:06different results it means staying
- 25:09committed to your goal while being
- 25:12flexible in your
- 25:15approach that's another quality of
- 25:17people who attract success they are
- 25:20adaptable they are willing to change
- 25:22their strategy when the situation
- 25:24demands it they don't get stuck in one
- 25:26way of thinking they're open to new new
- 25:28ideas new approaches new ways of doing
- 25:31things and that's
- 25:35important because the world is
- 25:38constantly changing what worked
- 25:40yesterday may not work tomorrow so you
- 25:43got to be willing to evolve to grow to
- 25:46learn new skills to embrace New
- 25:48Opportunities the more adaptable you are
- 25:51the more you'll attract
- 25:53success back when I was getting started
- 25:55in business I had this idea in my mind
- 25:58of how things should go I thought if I
- 26:00worked hard enough everything would fall
- 26:02into place but things didn't always go
- 26:05according to plan there were times when
- 26:08my strategy didn't work there were times
- 26:10when my business wasn't growing the way
- 26:12I wanted it to and I had two choices I
- 26:15could stubbornly keep doing the same
- 26:17thing or I could adapt and thank
- 26:20goodness I chose to adapt I started
- 26:23learning new ways to Market new ways to
- 26:26connect with people new ways to manage
- 26:31my time and my resources and you know
- 26:32what that made all the difference
- 26:35success didn't come the way I originally
- 26:37imagined it it came because I was
- 26:39willing to change to adjust to
- 26:44adapt so ask yourself are you flexible
- 26:48enough to adapt when life throws you a
- 26:50curveball are you willing to change your
- 26:52approach when the old one isn't working
- 26:55because the truth is life rarely goes
- 26:59exactly according to
- 27:01plan there will always be unexpected
- 27:03challenges unforeseen
- 27:05circumstances but the people who attract
- 27:08success are those who are prepared to
- 27:11adjust they don't let obstacles stop
- 27:13them they find a way around them they
- 27:16don't cling to Old strategies they
- 27:18Embrace new ones they stay focused on
- 27:21the goal but they're flexible in their
- 27:25approach now here's one of the most
- 27:27important pieces to attracting success
- 27:30the power of a positive
- 27:33attitude if you want to attract success
- 27:35you've got to maintain a positive
- 27:37outlook I'm not talking about wishful
- 27:39thinking or blind optimism I'm talking
- 27:42about a mindset that sees opportunities
- 27:45where others see
- 27:47problems I'm talking about a mindset
- 27:49that refuses to be discouraged no matter
- 27:51how tough things get you see a positive
- 27:54attitude is like a magnet for Success
- 27:57when you're positive
- 27:59you attract positive people positive
- 28:02opportunities positive
- 28:05results but when you're negative you
- 28:09repel all those things you can't attract
- 28:12success with a negative attitude it's
- 28:14like trying to grow flowers in a garden
- 28:15Full Of
- 28:18Weeds a positive attitude doesn't mean
- 28:20you ignore reality it doesn't mean you
- 28:23pretend everything is perfect when it's
- 28:25not what it does mean is that you choose
- 28:28to focus on the
- 28:30solutions rather than the problems it
- 28:33means you look for the lessons in every
- 28:35challenge it means you maintain hope
- 28:38even when things seem hopeless and I'm
- 28:41telling you that's a powerful place to
- 28:43be when you stay positive in the face of
- 28:46adversity you develop something even
- 28:48more valuable than success you develop
- 28:52character and character my friends is
- 28:55what ultimately sustains success because
- 28:58success without character is empty but
- 29:01success built on a foundation of strong
- 29:04character that's the kind of success
- 29:06that
- 29:08lasts so how do you cultivate a positive
- 29:13attitude you start by controlling what
- 29:16you focus on if you focus on the
- 29:19negative on what's wrong on what you
- 29:21don't have you'll feel negative but if
- 29:24you focus on the positive on what's
- 29:26right on what you do have
- 29:29you'll
- 29:30feel positive it's that simple what you
- 29:35focus on
- 29:37expands so start training your mind to
- 29:39focus on the good start looking for the
- 29:42silver lining in every situation start
- 29:44being grateful because being grateful is
- 29:47the gateway to a positive
- 29:51attitude when you're grateful for what
- 29:53you have you open the door for more good
- 29:57things to to come into your life but if
- 30:00you're constantly complaining constantly
- 30:03focusing on what you lack you close that
- 30:06door being grateful and positivity are
- 30:08magnets for Success here's a little
- 30:11exercise every day take a few minutes to
- 30:15write down three things you're grateful
- 30:17for it doesn't have to be anything big
- 30:20just three things that you appreciate
- 30:21about your life it could be your health
- 30:24your family your work the opportunities
- 30:26you have
- 30:29and here's what will happen over time as
- 30:31you train your mind to focus on the
- 30:32positive you'll start to see more and
- 30:33more things to be grateful for and the
- 30:36more grateful you are the more success
- 30:38you will
- 30:39attract why because a grateful heart is
- 30:44a magnet for
- 30:45miracles being grateful creates a
- 30:47positive energy that draws more good
- 30:50things into your
- 30:52life now this is a critical component to
- 30:55becoming the person who attracts success
- 30:58personal
- 30:59responsibility if you want to attract
- 31:03success you've got to take 100%
- 31:06responsibility for your life no excuses
- 31:09no blaming others no playing the victim
- 31:11you see successful people take full
- 31:15ownership of their
- 31:17circumstances they understand that while
- 31:19they can't control everything that
- 31:20happens to them they can control how
- 31:22they respond and that's the key how you
- 31:26respond to Life's challenges is what
- 31:28determines your
- 31:30success too many people go through life
- 31:34blaming their
- 31:35circumstances their upbringing the
- 31:39economy their boss their spouse anyone
- 31:43or anything but themselves but here's
- 31:46the truth as long as you're blaming
- 31:48something outside of yourself you're
- 31:51giving away your power when you take
- 31:55responsibility you take back your power
- 31:59you acknowledge that while you can't
- 32:00change the past you can shape your
- 32:03future and that's the mindset of someone
- 32:06who attracts
- 32:07success they don't wait for
- 32:10circumstances to change they change
- 32:12themselves they don't wait for someone
- 32:15else to make things better they make
- 32:17things
- 32:19better taking responsibility is the
- 32:22Cornerstone of becoming the person who
- 32:24attracts
- 32:25success you see the moment you shift
- 32:28from blaming external factors to owning
- 32:30your decisions your attitude and your
- 32:32actions that's the moment you unlock
- 32:35your
- 32:35potential it's the moment you stop
- 32:38waiting for life to get easier or for
- 32:42the perfect opportunity to fall in your
- 32:45lap and you start creating the
- 32:47circumstances that lead to success
- 32:50because my friends life doesn't respond
- 32:54to wishful thinking life responds to
- 32:57action to determination to personal
- 33:02accountability now I want to be clear
- 33:05this isn't about beating yourself up
- 33:07when things go wrong it's about owning
- 33:09the outcome learning from it and moving
- 33:13forward if you fail and you will fail
- 33:16from time to time don't look for someone
- 33:20or something to blame instead ask
- 33:24yourself what can I learn from this what
- 33:27could I have done differently how can I
- 33:30improve next time that's what personal
- 33:33responsibility looks like it's about
- 33:36seeing every setback as a lesson and
- 33:40using those lessons to grow stronger
- 33:43smarter and better prepared for the next
- 33:46challenge when I started my journey I
- 33:49made a lot of mistakes but I learned
- 33:52early on that if I wanted to grow I
- 33:55couldn't afford to pass the blame and
- 33:57one time I remember I was struggling in
- 34:00my early business ventures and it was so
- 34:02tempting to point fingers at everything
- 34:04the market the economy even the people I
- 34:08was working with but then I had a Moment
- 34:10of clarity I realized that if I was
- 34:13going to get anywhere I had to own my
- 34:15results good or bad and once I did that
- 34:19everything changed I stopped waiting for
- 34:22circumstances to improve and I started
- 34:25improving
- 34:26myself that that shift in mindset made
- 34:29all the
- 34:31difference here's the thing personal
- 34:34responsibility leads to personal
- 34:37empowerment the more responsibility you
- 34:39take for your life the more power you
- 34:41have to change it and that's where
- 34:43success is attracted when you're in
- 34:45control of your life your actions your
- 34:47future there's no power in blame but
- 34:51there's tremendous power in
- 34:53accountability so I'll ask you again how
- 34:57much responsibility are you willing to
- 34:59take for your
- 35:00success because that's going to
- 35:02determine how far you
- 35:05go but here's something else taking
- 35:09responsibility doesn't mean you do
- 35:11everything
- 35:13alone one of the biggest mistakes people
- 35:15make is thinking that being successful
- 35:17means doing it all by yourself that's
- 35:20not the case you need people you need
- 35:23mentors you need a team you need a
- 35:26support system
- 35:28what taking responsibility means is that
- 35:33you are in charge of finding the right
- 35:34people building the right
- 35:37relationships and putting yourself in
- 35:39the right
- 35:40environments you have to seek out those
- 35:43connections that will help you grow you
- 35:46have to be responsible for surrounding
- 35:49yourself with the right
- 35:53influences and that brings me to another
- 35:55key point if you want want to attract
- 35:58success you need to be selective about
- 36:01the people you allow into your
- 36:04life we talked earlier about the
- 36:07importance of your
- 36:10relationships but I want to emphasize
- 36:12this you have to be intentional about
- 36:16your
- 36:17associations show me the people you
- 36:19spend the most time with and I'll show
- 36:21you your future if you're surrounding
- 36:24yourself with negative small minds
- 36:28or toxic individuals it's going to be
- 36:31nearly impossible to attract success but
- 36:34if you surround yourself with positive
- 36:38ambitious forward-thinking people people
- 36:41who are striving for Success themselves
- 36:44you'll naturally start to rise to their
- 36:48level there's an old phrase I love iron
- 36:51sharpens iron it means that when you
- 36:54spend time with people who are sharp who
- 36:56are motivated who are driven they make
- 36:59you sharper they challenge you to think
- 37:02bigger to raise your standards to step
- 37:06up your game that's why it's so
- 37:09important to be mindful of your
- 37:11circle success is not a solo Journey
- 37:14it's a journey where you need to be
- 37:16surrounded by people who inspire you who
- 37:23challenge you and who hold you
- 37:26accountable to your
- 37:28potential now here's another key point
- 37:30on attracting
- 37:31success
- 37:33contribution it might sound
- 37:35counterintuitive but if you want to
- 37:37attract success you have to be focused
- 37:40on giving not just getting you see
- 37:43success isn't about what you can take
- 37:45from the world it's about what you can
- 37:48give the more you contribute the more
- 37:50value you bring to others the more
- 37:52success you will attract that's just how
- 37:54life
- 37:56works I'm sure you've heard this before
- 37:59you reap what you sow it's a principle
- 38:03as old as time if you sow generosity
- 38:07kindness and value you'll reap success
- 38:11abundance and fulfillment the people who
- 38:14attract the most success are the people
- 38:17who are constantly thinking how can I
- 38:19serve how can I help how can I make a
- 38:24difference they're not focused on what
- 38:26they can get they're focused on what
- 38:28they can give and in giving they create
- 38:31an environment where success flows
- 38:34naturally to
- 38:36them here's an example think about the
- 38:39most successful businesses in the world
- 38:43what do they all have in common they
- 38:45solve problems they provide value they
- 38:49meet needs they're focused on giving the
- 38:52best possible service or product to
- 38:54their customers and because they're
- 38:56focused on giving they attract
- 39:00incredible success the same principle
- 39:03applies to your life if you want to
- 39:05attract success focus on how you can add
- 39:08value to the lives of others when you do
- 39:11that you'll find that success starts
- 39:14chasing after
- 39:18you now you might be wondering how do I
- 39:21start contributing more how do I add
- 39:24value to the lives of others well it
- 39:27doesn't have to be anything Grand or
- 39:28dramatic it starts with small acts of
- 39:31kindness with showing up fully in your
- 39:32work with being a positive influence on
- 39:34those around you it's about looking for
- 39:35ways to serve in whatever capacity you
- 39:39can and here's the thing the more you
- 39:42give the more you
- 39:44grow every time you contribute to
- 39:47someone else's life you grow in wisdom
- 39:50in experience and in character and
- 39:53that's what attracts success when you
- 39:55become a person of value success is
- 39:58drawn to you like a
- 40:01magnet let me share a little secret with
- 40:04you one of the greatest joys in life is
- 40:08to be of service to others there's
- 40:11something incredibly fulfilling about
- 40:12knowing that you've made a positive
- 40:14impact on someone's life that you've
- 40:17helped someone move closer to their
- 40:20goals or overcome a
- 40:23challenge That's What Gives Life Meaning
- 40:27and when your life is filled with
- 40:28meaning and purpose success is just a
- 40:32natural byproduct it's not something you
- 40:35have to chase it's something that flows
- 40:38to you because you're living a life of
- 40:43contribution so becoming the person who
- 40:46attracts success is not about chasing
- 40:49after something outside of yourself it's
- 40:52about working on the inside developing
- 40:55the qualities the habits and the mindset
- 40:57set that naturally draw success into
- 41:01your life it's about taking
- 41:03responsibility being persistent staying
- 41:07positive and adding value when you focus
- 41:10on becoming that kind of person success
- 41:13will follow you won't have to chase it
