Speaker A

Most people wait their whole lives for the big breakthrough.

Speaker A

And you know what?

Speaker A

They die waiting.

Speaker A

Welcome to the show.

Speaker A

Tired of the hype about living the dream?

Speaker A

It's time for truth.

Speaker A

This is the place for tools, power, and real talk, so you can create the life you dream and deserve your ultimate life.

Speaker A

Subscribe, Share, create.

Speaker A

You have infinite power.

Speaker A

What if it's true that it doesn't come in one giant leap?

Speaker A

What if that it's 1% shifts that compound into unstoppable power?

Speaker A

Today, I'm going to show you how to play the 1% game, the only game that generates growth and impact.

Speaker A

But you got to start now.

Speaker A

I want you to think about this.

Speaker A

What would your life look like?

Speaker A

And this should be a really easy question.

Speaker A

What would your life look like if you were just 1% better today than yesterday?

Speaker A

Like, just 1%, right?

Speaker A

I don't know if you're making sales calls, one more call.

Speaker A

If you're, you know, writing content, one more paragraph or one more page if you're creating a video, one more line in the script, or one more take on the video you're doing.

Speaker A

Or if you're just working in the yard, 1% better yard work.

Speaker A

Or if you're being nice to your kids or teaching them something or going on a date with your spouse, 1% better, 1% more attention.

Speaker A

What would that look like?

Speaker A

And you say, well, that's no big deal.

Speaker A

That's nothing.

Speaker A

Nobody would even notice.

Speaker A

Well, maybe not, but here's what I can tell you.

Speaker A

90 days from now, the calendar is going to flip three times.

Speaker A

90 days are going to be gone.

Speaker A

I'm recording this the middle of August, and you'll see this the middle of September.

Speaker A

But 90 days from the middle of September is what?

Speaker A

October, November, December.

Speaker A

Just about Christmas time.

Speaker A

So Christmas is coming either way.

Speaker A

And if you do 1% better, 1% better a day between when you hear this and Christmas, your Christmas will be 100% better.

Speaker A

Now remember, the calendar's ticking either way.

Speaker A

100% better.

Speaker A

What's that worth to you?

Speaker A

Okay, Einstein is credited with saying that the eighth wonder of the world was compound interest.

Speaker A

And he said that because, you know the story.

Speaker A

You double a penny every day, and by the end of the month, you got 5 million bucks or something.

Speaker A

And that's only in a month.

Speaker A

Compound interest is the feature of interest that makes it, you know, add on to itself.

Speaker A

So if you have 2% interest, but it compounds, then pretty soon it's not 2%, it's 3, 4, 5, 8, 10.

Speaker A

And pretty soon things are doubling because you get interest on the interest.

Speaker A

Now this isn't the financial class, but work and growth works the same way.

Speaker A

That's the point.

Speaker A

Compound growth is a real thing.

Speaker A

It's a thing, okay?

Speaker A

If you be 1% better, then you'd be 1 and 100th percent better the next day.

Speaker A

And that starts to add up really quickly.

Speaker A

So when I say 90 days gives you a hundred percent, that's actually not even true.

Speaker A

It's more like 130 or 40% improvement.

Speaker A

So my point is simply this 1% is a real game.

Speaker A

I read a story once about the English cycling team that competes in the Tour de France.

Speaker A

Now, if you're not a cycling enthusiast, and I'm only kind of quasi, you know that for a long time the English couldn't field a team that placed anything.

Speaker A

Then they hired a new coach and the coach got obsessed with these 1% improvements.

Speaker A

1% in pedal design, 1% in strokes, 1% in this and that.

Speaker A

And pretty soon over time, guess what?

Speaker A

It added up.

Speaker A

And then for several years, not recently, but just a few years ago, when I watched kind of regularly, they, Bradley Wiggins and some others, they won, you know, several years in a row, the English cycling team won the Tour de France, the most prestigious cycling race in the world.

Speaker A

And it was coming from that 1% improvement.

Speaker A

And that's a world class example.

Speaker A

So what I want you to think about is this.

Speaker A

This is not a theory.

Speaker A

This is not some highfalutin gobbledygook.

Speaker A

This is not wishful thinking.

Speaker A

And this is not woo woo.

Speaker A

This is hardcore science, hardcore financial cash truth.

Speaker A

So we're all about creating the ultimate life purpose, prosperity and joy.

Speaker A

You know that that's what we're doing here week after week, episode after episode, whether no matter what guests they are, and no matter what the topic is, my goal is only one thing.

Speaker A

300 million people this year to help you create and live the ultimate life purpose, prosperity and joy.

Speaker A

Today I want to talk about why 1% matters.

Speaker A

Because it matters a lot.

Speaker A

Like way more than you think.

Speaker A

Okay, now I want you to think about the story, not the story.

Speaker A

There's a.

Speaker A

Let's talk about why 1% is more important than big leaps.

Speaker A

Okay?

Speaker A

Big leaps often fail.

Speaker A

They try to people you, maybe you've done this.

Speaker A

You're going to overhaul everything at once.

Speaker A

Your diet, your exercise regime, what time you go to bed, you know, your sleep routine, all this stuff at once.

Speaker A

And what usually happens is it takes a good bit of preparation, a good bit of Gumption.

Speaker A

I'm going to do this.

Speaker A

And then it doesn't work, or it's a lot harder than you thought.

Speaker A

And then what happens?

Speaker A

You know what?

Speaker A

You've done it.

Speaker A

Burnout.

Speaker A

Quit.

Speaker A

It's not right.

Speaker A

Some other time.

Speaker A

Next time.

Speaker A

Oh, crap.

Speaker A

What was I thinking?

Speaker A

So you've done that right, and it sucks, because then you're sitting there, I can't.

Speaker A

I can't do this.

Speaker A

And when you've tried that a few times, then you're in the mode of, what's wrong with me?

Speaker A

How come other people can do this and I can't?

Speaker A

And that lands right in give up land, and you end up nowhere.

Speaker A

So compounding pennies, let's talk about that.

Speaker A

Because when you use compound interest now, the story is you have a penny for one day and then double it each day.

Speaker A

That's a little more than just compounding.

Speaker A

But even one penny doubled every day for 30 days in a month, you end up with $5 million.

Speaker A

Right?

Speaker A

Now, compound interest doesn't double every day.

Speaker A

But you've all seen the life insurance calculations, the infinite banking things that if you just start saving today, $100 a month, $1,000 a month, it doesn't matter that, you know, it goes up slow at first, and then out there, there's this mysterious thing, it takes a different shape, and pretty soon it feels like it's doubling every month.

Speaker A

And that is because of the exponential nature of compounding.

Speaker A

Compounding is an exponential function.

Speaker A

If you've done math and you know it in money because you've seen it in savings accounts or banking account or other kind of calculations where you can see that hockey stick of growth.

Speaker A

What I want to let you know is that is true in every skill development area.

Speaker A

So, for example, I taught piano for 40 years.

Speaker A

I started teaching when I was 17, and I think I had my last students when I was about 57 or 10 or 12 years ago.

Speaker A

69 will be 70 in December.

Speaker A

So for 40 years, I watched students taught students of all ages, beginners, advanced, you know, improvisation, orchestration, all kinds of different musical things.

Speaker A

And here's what I noticed every time, without exception, those students who went home and practiced every day for 30, 40, 50 minutes made exponential progress compared to students who, you know, said they were going to practice three hours a week or whatever, and they would cram it in on Saturday or Saturday and Sunday.

Speaker A

That just doesn't work.

Speaker A

Your brain doesn't work like that.

Speaker A

Your fingers don't work like that.

Speaker A

Your skills don't work like that.

Speaker A

Same thing with learning a sport, okay?

Speaker A

I.

Speaker A

When I was 50, I decided, for whatever reason, I was going to learn a snowboard, okay?

Speaker A

And so I did.

Speaker A

And I. I couldn't go every day, but I went every weekend, two days for a while.

Speaker A

I hired an instructor and did all day lessons so I could build and build and build.

Speaker A

And it wasn't very long, not even a season, half a season before.

Speaker A

I was pretty good.

Speaker A

And I could ski greens and blues and some blacks.

Speaker A

I could never do the double blacks on the board, but skis but no board.

Speaker A

But anyway, the growth was really quick, even for a geezer at 50 learning to snowboard.

Speaker A

And the reason was because of this compounding effect.

Speaker A

Your muscles remember, your mind remembers, your body remembers, your confidence remembers.

Speaker A

I want you to think about that for a minute.

Speaker A

It's easy to see how the body would remember muscle memory.

Speaker A

It's easy to see how the mind might remember.

Speaker A

But there's a confidence memory too, and that's a neurotransmitter thing.

Speaker A

You get used to doing things and it creates the feeling of confidence.

Speaker A

Confidence doesn't come from success.

Speaker A

Success comes from confidence.

Speaker A

You create confidence by doing, even when you fail.

Speaker A

So think about that.

Speaker A

It is super important and super powerful.

Speaker A

Okay?

Speaker A

Big leaps fail.

Speaker A

1% is easy to do.

Speaker A

I want you to pick something right now.

Speaker A

If you're listening to this, what's something you could do?

Speaker A

1% that's important to you?

Speaker A

I'm not thinking picking stupid stuff, but something that's important to you to do 1% better.

Speaker A

Do you have a relationship that needs repair?

Speaker A

A friend, a colleague, a partner?

Speaker A

Maybe it's your relationship with God.

Speaker A

You know, there was a time in my life, you guys know the stories where I had severe negative things in my relationship with the divine, and it was mainly because I was ashamed and mad at myself and everything for things that I'd done.

Speaker A

That kind of relationship doesn't.

Speaker A

In no kind of relationship, but it doesn't click immediately.

Speaker A

It requires sustained effort.

Speaker A

I'll give you another example.

Speaker A

You want to apologize to your.

Speaker A

Let's say you've been in an argument with your spouse, okay?

Speaker A

Or your partner.

Speaker A

You go and apologize and they're like, yeah, whatever.

Speaker A

And it doesn't land.

Speaker A

And you're hoping, oh, you know, be reconciliation, kiss and make up.

Speaker A

It doesn't happen.

Speaker A

So what do you do?

Speaker A

You quit.

Speaker A

Well, you can, but you know where quitting goes.

Speaker A

Instead, small gestures repeated consistently over time builds trust.

Speaker A

You get the compounding effect, and pretty soon trust can be reestablished.

Speaker A

Not because we're guessing not because they're just taking a leap of faith, but because there's this consisting, consistent, consistent compounding.

Speaker A

Greatness does not come in one giant swing in the music industry.

Speaker A

There's some really good examples of that.

Speaker A

They didn't have a name for them.

Speaker A

They call them one hit wonders.

Speaker A

The music history industry, pop music is littered with those.

Speaker A

Some producer found somebody, some cute hook, did a thing, made a splash, then that person disappeared from view.

Speaker A

Oh, whatever happened to so and so?

Speaker A

Okay, if you look at those who have staying power over years and some even decades, it is consistent growth and application.

Speaker A

So 1% applies to all those things.

Speaker A

And I want you to think about your own life, about where you can make that work for you.

Speaker A

Now, I just said 1% over 90 days is way over 100%.

Speaker A

Well, 90 times one is only 90.

Speaker A

Okay, it is.

Speaker A

But there's that compounding effect, push ups, same thing.

Speaker A

I used to, I don't do that now because my back situation, but I used to be kind of obsessed with push ups, right?

Speaker A

And I wanted to get so I could do 100 at a sitting and all that sort of stuff.

Speaker A

And that may be not very many or a lot compared to whatever you're used to, but that was the number I wanted.

Speaker A

I wanted to be able to hit the floor and do a hundred anytime that happened.

Speaker A

One push up, I didn't start with one, but 20 and whatever I could do.

Speaker A

Wonder if I can do one more tomorrow or every other day.

Speaker A

One more, one more, one more.

Speaker A

And how muscles work with breaking down that very last push up or two to failure where the breakdown and the rebuild takes place, the compounding took place and the growth became something more than linear.

Speaker A

So it works in physical things, it works in the bank, it works in your sales efforts, it works in your own personal development efforts, and it works in any.

Speaker A

Anything you want to put it to.

Speaker A

Because that is the nature of consistency.

Speaker A

Consistency is a.

Speaker A

Is almost like a magic sauce.

Speaker A

Now, I want you to.

Speaker A

We're going to have to make an emotional shift here because our society rewards big victories, right?

Speaker A

When somebody does a big thing, donates a million dollars to charity or wins a championship, that was unexpected.

Speaker A

That's a, you know, big noise.

Speaker A

Whoa.

Speaker A

This happened.

Speaker A

This amazing thing happened.

Speaker A

And we don't pay attention to small improvements.

Speaker A

We only celebrate the big wins.

Speaker A

That is a disease.

Speaker A

It is a disaster.

Speaker A

If you have accepted that conditioning and you live sort of in your head in the realm of, well, it won't matter until I make my first million or my 10th million or whatever the number is.

Speaker A

That's a guarantee for failure.

Speaker A

A guarantee for failure.

Speaker A

If you want to stay on the path.

Speaker A

If you want to stay on the path to success, you have to switch your mind and get in the emotional game of tiny wins.

Speaker A

One of the important management things I learned in the years I was manager and then executive in different companies was the power of recognition.

Speaker A

Just recognition.

Speaker A

And I used to think, like many, that the only way you gave acknowledgement and recognition was maybe an award, and that was pokey hokey, but it had to be some cash.

Speaker A

You know what?

Speaker A

That isn't actually what means the most to people.

Speaker A

My years of doing this has shown me in spades, without question, the thing that means the most to people is sincere acknowledgement and recognition.

Speaker A

You saved the day.

Speaker A

That was a good job.

Speaker A

Well done.

Speaker A

I use that right now all the time with clients, with podcast guests.

Speaker A

My ability to get good interviews out of people, and it's regular that people will say, oh, that's best interview I ever had.

Speaker A

I hear that a lot.

Speaker A

And you know what it comes from?

Speaker A

It comes from acknowledging.

Speaker A

I hear what they're doing and we talk about it, and I acknowledge the effort and the work and the dedication and the love that.

Speaker A

That.

Speaker A

That.

Speaker A

That demonstrates.

Speaker A

I do that every time I'm on someone else's podcast, too.

Speaker A

So here's a secret.

Speaker A

If you're a podcast guest and you want to be a favorite guest, you want to get invited back, here's something I do to make that happen.

Speaker A

Every single time on the recording in the episode, I acknowledge them and I say, I know what a labor of love a podcast is, and I want to just thank you and acknowledge you for doing that.

Speaker A

Inevitably, without fail, the host lights up.

Speaker A

They get excited.

Speaker A

It's genuinely received because it's genuinely given.

Speaker A

And that makes me a favorite guest, one that gets invited back, and one that gets shared.

Speaker A

So I'm sharing this with you because those are tiny things.

Speaker A

It doesn't cost anything except to get out of our own head and stop wondering, am I cool?

Speaker A

Am I impressive?

Speaker A

That's an area for 1% growth.

Speaker A

Okay, now I've moved into this.

Speaker A

This might be the most powerful piece we're going to have today.

Speaker A

1% personal improvement.

Speaker A

How can I be.

Speaker A

How can I love 1% better today?

Speaker A

How can I be 1% out of my own head?

Speaker A

1% less thinking about me?

Speaker A

And here's how to do that.

Speaker A

There's a game I teach clients, and I'm teaching you right now, because you're my Clients, and I love you to pieces.

Speaker A

It's called notice and choose.

Speaker A

Notice and choose is worth $1 billion to you if you'll use it well and use it a lot.

Speaker A

Here's one way to use it.

Speaker A

Notice what you're thinking about maybe 10 or 15 times today.

Speaker A

Just notice if you're.

Speaker A

If what you're thinking about.

Speaker A

When you notice what you're thinking about is you.

Speaker A

How I feel, what I'm doing, what others are thinking, how I look, are they impressed?

Speaker A

In other words, if your thinking is about you, just notice that.

Speaker A

And then realize two things.

Speaker A

Number one is you don't have to think about you.

Speaker A

You could think about something else.

Speaker A

That's the first thing.

Speaker A

The second thing is choose to do that.

Speaker A

Choose to switch your focus.

Speaker A

If you notice you're thinking about you, ask a different question.

Speaker A

What are you feeling?

Speaker A

How are you doing?

Speaker A

How is this for you as a coach?

Speaker A

That is essential and perhaps one of the very most powerful things is to regularly say, how does this land for you?

Speaker A

Or how is this affecting you?

Speaker A

How does this sound when you go in your body and you just pay attention to the feelings you have after this brief exchange we've had, what's happening for you?

Speaker A

So I promise you, right here, right now, that will move you toward creating purpose, prosperity and joy, your ultimate life.

Speaker A

So notice and choose is the game.

Speaker A

And that means many times a day and I'm repeating myself, just stop.

Speaker A

What am I thinking about?

Speaker A

What is my.

Speaker A

Where is my focus?

Speaker A

Is it in or is it out?

Speaker A

And if it's in, then the question is, what would it look like if my focus was out on they.

Speaker A

On them, on that meaning how I can grow it and love it.

Speaker A

That doesn't work.

Speaker A

If it's how I can bitch about it or how I can complain or why I'm mad about it.

Speaker A

But it means instead of worrying about my own comfort, safety, desires, yearnings, me, me, me, me, me.

Speaker A

It means instead saying, I wonder what I can do for them.

Speaker A

I wonder if there's something I can do to make you feel honored, valued, or happy today.

Speaker A

Now that 1% improvement.

Speaker A

If you did that 1% a day more and by Christmas had 90 days or 100 and something percent improvement, I can make you a promise.

Speaker A

You'll be happier.

Speaker A

You, because you did 1% for them, will be happier.

Speaker A

You'll smile more, you'll dance more, and you know what else?

Speaker A

You will probably make more money.

Speaker A

People want to give money to those who make them feel good.

Speaker A

If you have products or services for sale and I'm assuming you do.

Speaker A

People want to buy from you when you make them feel good.

Speaker A

And there's lots of ways to do that.

Speaker A

And this is not a marketing episode, but it's about language and it's about service and it's about the attitude we have.

Speaker A

So there is a 1% rubber meets the road hot tip that will give you more money by Christmas and a heck of a lot more joy.

Speaker A

Okay, now I want to talk about another thing that's really important in this and that is forgiveness.

Speaker A

What does forgiveness have to do with 1%?

Speaker A

A lot.

Speaker A

As it turns out, nearly everyone I talk to carries a backpack.

Speaker A

And the backpack, virtual backpack, and the backpack is full of rocks.

Speaker A

Many of those rocks are guilt, shame, frustration, anger directed toward yourself or toward others.

Speaker A

That frickin idiot didn't pay.

Speaker A

That douchebag didn't do what they said.

Speaker A

Or I promised I would do that and I didn't.

Speaker A

I failed.

Speaker A

I'm such a jerk.

Speaker A

They're never going to trust me again.

Speaker A

Or oh, I wish I hadn't said that.

Speaker A

Oh, I wish I hadn't done that.

Speaker A

And so, and sometimes they're little things like a comment or gossip or something.

Speaker A

And sometimes they're big things like theft or betrayal or you know, dishonest or misleading someone.

Speaker A

You know, that kind of thing.

Speaker A

And those things sit there like a rock.

Speaker A

That feeling of rock of guilt or frustration, resentment or anger towards someone else gets in the way of the 1% game.

Speaker A

It makes 1% seem like a million percent.

Speaker A

It makes any improvement feel like quicksand.

Speaker A

Like, yeah, I can see that 1%.

Speaker A

It's not that hard to reach.

Speaker A

But yeah, there's this big thing, a quicksand in the way between me and 1% because our minds are consumed with either guilt or shame or with resentment or anger if it's directed towards someone else.

Speaker A

So I have a phrase, and I may have said it a little bit ago, but I'm going to say it again.

Speaker A

Those who dare greatly fail greatly so carry a big blanket of forgiveness.

Speaker A

Now, I'm talking to you with some assumptions.

Speaker A

I'm assuming you want your ultimate life or you wouldn't listen to this show.

Speaker A

I'm assuming you want purpose, prosperity and joy or you wouldn't be here.

Speaker A

I'm assuming also that you've tasted some measure of that purpose, a fire that's in your belly that drives you every day.

Speaker A

Prosperity, which is not just cash, certainly includes it, but is the wealth of joy that we have at being alive and being human and being able to Love and serve each other.

Speaker A

I love what I do.

Speaker A

I love coaching.

Speaker A

I loved helping people write their books and stories and all the rest.

Speaker A

So your ability to create that depends on getting rid of the quicksand.

Speaker A

Forgiveness is the key.

Speaker A

You have authority and you have permission.

Speaker A

I just gave it to you.

Speaker A

To forgive yourself everything, everywhere and have compassion, grace and patience for everyone, for everything.

Speaker A

You could do that.

Speaker A

If you don't, or if I don't.

Speaker A

The only reason is because we think they don't deserve grace.

Speaker A

They should burn at the stake.

Speaker A

Or I don't deserve grace, I'm unworthy, I should burn at the stake.

Speaker A

You know what?

Speaker A

Judgment is not ours.

Speaker A

There's a divine course of judgment that's going to take place that we're not part of.

Speaker A

And if we can just trust that that will be handled, then we can release all that forgiveness.

Speaker A

I give you a definition of forgiveness that will help you with your 1%, and that is forgiveness is simply a choice to no longer allow events from the past to have power in the present.

Speaker A

That includes self forgiveness.

Speaker A

It includes forgiving others, etc.

Speaker A

No longer allowing events, words, circumstances, behaviors, even harsh ones from the past to have power in the present.

Speaker A

Now, that's easy to say and difficult to do, but there are ways to do it.

Speaker A

Maybe if it's something serious, you need therapy and help.

Speaker A

Maybe if someone ripped you off, you know, you just need to make peace with that because maybe they're never going to give it back to you.

Speaker A

Or maybe they don't even think they ripped you off.

Speaker A

But if you carry the grudge, you're getting poisoned.

Speaker A

You know, everyone's heard carrying a grudge is like drinking poison and hoping the other person gets sick or dies.

Speaker A

Well, that's never going to happen.

Speaker A

You're the only one dying because you're the only one with the poison.

Speaker A

So here's an example about forgiveness.

Speaker A

My life was full of mistakes.

Speaker A

You know the stories.

Speaker A

If you don't, you can read them in the book Tightrope of Depression.

Speaker A

My journey from Darkness, Despair and Death to Light, Love and Life.

Speaker A

This book.

Speaker A

You want to read the stories?

Speaker A

There they are.

Speaker A

But full of mistakes.

Speaker A

Full of things that I would not do again if I had life to live over again.

Speaker A

But I wouldn't change any of my life because it has given me compassion, patience, love, and the beautiful things that I get to do today.

Speaker A

But my life was full of those.

Speaker A

And I carried no forgiveness.

Speaker A

I hated myself and behaved accordingly.

Speaker A

Lots of trouble and struggle.

Speaker A

When I learned to forgive myself, I was released to love and serve.

Speaker A

Now, I want to make really one thing really clear.

Speaker A

Forgiveness doesn't mean ignoring things that happened.

Speaker A

It doesn't mean putting yourself in danger.

Speaker A

It doesn't mean pretending stuff away or sweeping stuff under the carpet.

Speaker A

Serious things require consequences.

Speaker A

Maybe there's legal remedies.

Speaker A

Maybe there's all kinds of stuff.

Speaker A

That's maybe part of it.

Speaker A

And if you've made mistakes, goodness knows I have, you gotta go do what you can to fix them.

Speaker A

But forgiveness doesn't depend on someone accepting your apology.

Speaker A

It doesn't depend on your ability to make something completely right.

Speaker A

Because especially for serious things like loss of trust or friendship, you can't fix those.

Speaker A

You can't make those be fixed.

Speaker A

So do what you can and then change who you are.

Speaker A

Hear me, whoever you were that made those mistakes, fix what you can, whether someone else accepts it or not.

Speaker A

Change who you are, meaning no longer you would ever be that person again.

Speaker A

And then go add good to the world.

Speaker A

Three steps.

Speaker A

Fix what you can.

Speaker A

Change who you are.

Speaker A

Go add good to the world.

Speaker A

Let it go so it doesn't get in the way of your 1% growth.

Speaker A

All right, here's another piece.

Speaker A

And that is the only day that exists for all of us is today.

Speaker A

Right here, right now.

Speaker A

Okay, that's beautiful, because that makes it easy to do 1%.

Speaker A

I only have today.

Speaker A

Well, I can't fix everything today.

Speaker A

Good.

Speaker A

But I can do 1%.

Speaker A

1% more business activity if I'm trying to make money.

Speaker A

1%.

Speaker A

More personal care if I'm trying to learn to meditate or love myself or take care of my body or fix my eating or acknowledge myself or quit talking to myself like a dirtbag.

Speaker A

Side note, most people talk to themselves in terrible ways.

Speaker A

Like ways they wouldn't let anyone talk to a friend.

Speaker A

Let's end that.

Speaker A

That's part of forgiveness.

Speaker A

It's part of 1%.

Speaker A

Because that internal dialogue will.

Speaker A

Eat your lunch if you hate yourself.

Speaker A

All right?

Speaker A

Tomorrow doesn't exist.

Speaker A

Yesterday doesn't exist.

Speaker A

The only use for yesterday is to learn a few things.

Speaker A

That's it.

Speaker A

We're done.

Speaker A

If you made mistakes, maybe you got to fix a few things.

Speaker A

So do that, but focus on today.

Speaker A

Because this moment right here, the only thing I'm doing is making this episode for you.

Speaker A

The only thing I'm doing is loving you with all my heart.

Speaker A

The only thing I'm doing here is wanting the very best for you that I can possibly imagine.

Speaker A

That's all I'm doing right here, right now.

Speaker A

And nothing else is on my mind.

Speaker A

Why?

Speaker A

Because I love you.

Speaker A

I mean that I love you and you can't do anything about that.

Speaker A

Isn't that funny?

Speaker A

I can love you without your permission.

Speaker A

My goal, you know, is to reach 300 million people with the message method and mastery.

Speaker A

The message is whipos worth, your worth, your identity as the divine being, your possibility, your ownership of your life and your sovereignty as the decider, the chooser of what you do with it.

Speaker A

That's the message.

Speaker A

The purpose is obviously purpose, prosperity and joy.

Speaker A

The method is all of the things that I teach, my coaching, the 20 something books I've written, all of those things are the method to get there.

Speaker A

And they all.

Speaker A

Everything, everything I teach is battle tested.

Speaker A

It comes out of my own life and the lives of clients.

Speaker A

So there's no thinking, there's no woo woo.

Speaker A

There's no, well, research suggests bullshit, battle tested, real time on the ground, stuff that will get you what you want, but only if you use it.

Speaker A

I mean, if I get a closet full of screwdrivers and I don't use them, I won't be able to use, I won't be able to build anything.

Speaker A

I might have the collection of greatest hammers in the world and if I don't know what they are, how to use them, so what?

Speaker A

All right, so that's my mission.

Speaker A

300 million people this year.

Speaker A

I got two months left because my year ends October 14th with a message method and then mastery to keep on going for myself and you so that we get to mastery of these things.

Speaker A

Why would we care about mastery?

Speaker A

Well, you may not.

Speaker A

I do.

Speaker A

I'm always at 1%.

Speaker A

2%.

Speaker A

Because 2% compounds even so much faster than 1%.

Speaker A

You notice I didn't say 52%, just 2%.

Speaker A

What would 2% look like?

Speaker A

What would 3% look like on a really good day?

Speaker A

Because that compounds so fast into more money, more clients, more fun, more finished products, more joy, more vacays.

Speaker A

All that good stuff that you want, I promise you can have it.

Speaker A

There's nothing mysterious about any of this.

Speaker A

Now there's another little piece to this and that is, it's a part of Today is the only day that exists often when I talk to people and this happens a lot.

Speaker A

So you see this up here?

Speaker A

Dream buildwriteit.com I want you to go there, write it down.

Speaker A

Dream buildwright build write it dot com.

Speaker A

Because on the 29th of September, which is just a few days after you hear this, I'm doing a book challenge.

Speaker A

And if you miss that one, there'll be one in January or February of 26.

Speaker A

The same URL.

Speaker A

The purpose of that challenge is to help you go through the developmental processes of your life and find the gold, find the nuggets, the thing.

Speaker A

That's the things that turned you into the powerhouse and magical person that you are.

Speaker A

And I know you are.

Speaker A

You wouldn't be here.

Speaker A

You.

Speaker A

You wouldn't be part of this audience.

Speaker A

So you're a magic.

Speaker A

You're a magician.

Speaker A

You can create anything you want.

Speaker A

And this process that we're talking about is the key.

Speaker A

And when I help people with these books and I talk to them about writing their story and then using it to serve the world, et cetera, et cetera, you know what the most often excuse I hear is?

Speaker A

Stupid excuse.

Speaker A

It's not the right time.

Speaker A

It's not the right time.

Speaker A

Bad timing.

Speaker A

I'm just too busy.

Speaker A

You're too busy to go mine a great gold mine in your backyard?

Speaker A

You're too busy to go find the biggest diamond in your closet?

Speaker A

You're too busy to find the thing that will make you happier than anything in the world.

Speaker A

You're too busy for that?

Speaker A

Oh, please.

Speaker A

It's not the right time for that.

Speaker A

When would be the right time to find a million dollars?

Speaker A

Right now.

Speaker A

Oh, I know.

Speaker A

This is your invitation.

Speaker A

This is the right time.

Speaker A

So let me invite you to go to dreambuildriteit.com and just look at it.

Speaker A

Because if you're here, then I know you're trying to add good to the world.

Speaker A

And the best way for you and me to add good to the world is with the story of our lives.

Speaker A

How we grew, how we failed, how we got up and started again.

Speaker A

All right, so there's never perfect timing.

Speaker A

The perfect timing is always today, because that's the only day we got.

Speaker A

So this 1% is today's move.

Speaker A

Always.

Speaker A

The 1% growth is absolutely today's move.

Speaker A

Now, don't beat yourself up, because there's going to be days, no matter how hard we say I'm doing it, that we fail.

Speaker A

So that's the blanket of forgiveness if you miss reset and go after it tomorrow.

Speaker A

But then tomorrow will be today, and you're still doing it.

Speaker A

Today.

Speaker A

Today, Today, Today.

Speaker A

Today.

Speaker A

That's the day to start.

Speaker A

So what is your 1% today?

Speaker A

Write down something right now.

Speaker A

What is your 1% gain?

Speaker A

What thing will you improve?

Speaker A

1%.

Speaker A

Not 1% of 20 things.

Speaker A

One thing.

Speaker A

1%.

Speaker A

You know, if you did that even for four quarters, then in four quarters from now, you would have four things 100% better.

Speaker A

What would your life look like right now in one year if you had four of the most important things to you.

Speaker A

A hundred percent better than they are today?

Speaker A

Actually, the first thing you did would be like 1000% better by then because you'd keep doing it.

Speaker A

So here's the thing.

Speaker A

Start writing it down.

Speaker A

Write down the thing you're going to do.

Speaker A

What's your 1% game today?

Speaker A

Or maybe it's going to last for a week or a month.

Speaker A

Write it down.

Speaker A

Lean into it, okay?

Speaker A

Tracking it gives it power because it's there.

Speaker A

You can also create accountability.

Speaker A

I would suggest get yourself in a coaching container.

Speaker A

If you want my help, get a hold of me.

Speaker A

But get some help.

Speaker A

You're worth it.

Speaker A

You're amazing.

Speaker A

And if you're not producing at a level that makes you scream with delight, it's on you.

Speaker A

I'm here to help.

Speaker A

That's all I do.

Speaker A

Tell people like you achieve awesome goals.

Speaker A

That ultimate life.

Speaker A

Forgive yourself instantly when you struggle or stumble and then repeat, Repeat, repeat, repeat.

Speaker A

1%.

Speaker A

1%.

Speaker A

I can promise you in less than 30 days you're going to have a, a massive success.

Speaker A

In 90 days your life is going to be changed.

Speaker A

In a year, you're going to have unrecognizable success.

Speaker A

And you're sitting there thinking, ah, not true, it's too hard.

Speaker A

It's not 1%.

Speaker A

Speaker A

So here's your recap.

Speaker A

This is your billion dollars.

Speaker A

Growth is not linear, it is exponential.

Speaker A

If you repeat it daily, if you do 1% a day, pretty soon it starts being way more than 1%.

Speaker A

Okay?

Speaker A

Your life change in a year is going to be unrecognizable.

Speaker A

If you do 1% today, I want you to think about that, just 1%.
