Are There Other Types of Mouse Traps?

Victor: We have a huge range of different traps. They cover quite a wide range of animals that were traditionally trapped, and that might include hawk traps, rat traps as well as mouse traps. And also, perhaps most surprising, we have man traps, which were,. until 18 and 18 enty seven, perfectly legal thes sort of giant jawed traps designed to catch poachersd ad and severely maim them if not potentially kill them. I don't know how good your hearing is, but mice when they're trying to attract a mate, actually sing a beautiful song in a pitch that humans can't hear.

entrepreneurs out there, a lot of coaches out there manipulate people into buying programs and they do it in a way that they use behavioral science to basically manipulate person to spend money that maybe they don't have. And I don't think that's okay. However, I've recently realized that maybe I don't mention this enough because at the end of the day, there's a halfway mark, you know, like you have to be willing to get out of your comfort zone and spend money on the things that you know via your strategy and authority, not because someone's told you to, that you should be spending money on this thing because it's going to help you become the person. Remember, the identity of the person that's in alignment with their design, manifesting their dreams. You don't know what you don't know. So at some point, you're going to have to get help. At some point, you're going to have to invest money. And I know for me, when I did my master coach program, it was $628 a month that I didn't have, we were living paycheck to paycheck at the time, but I committed to it. And every single month that money was there. So I started to understand that getting out of my comfort zone was really important around money. Now, having said that, where I trained, they did an amazing job of training coaches, but oh my God, they sold you everything, they were just a money making machine. They still are to this day, which is why I don't recommend them anymore. However, did I ever spend another penny on another program? No, I actually, I did one, one that wasn't actually in the mainstream. I didn't do any of the other programs because that's where I boundary lay and I didn't know at the time. That was where my authority was saying, no, it's a no.
