They’ve been rocking since 1962—for nearly 60 years, thanks to their insane work ethic, unparalleled commitment to their craft, and professionalism. Their longevity is rare in the music world. No matter what their age is, they keep going at a high level. They’re not doing it for the money—they’re doing it because they love doing what they do. You won’t find a more prolific band than that. I recently got to see them in concert, and it was so fun.  In today’s episode, BT and I chat about some of the bands, singers, and songs we’ve fallen in love with over the years, and how music has a deep impact on people—because it can transport you to the past, and to other worlds. We discuss:   How I was exposed to many types of music growing up (my parents loved Motown, and my dad grew up with the Buckinghams on the south Side of Chicago) My earliest memory of being deeply moved by a song (for BT, “Time in a Bottle” by Jim Croce brings him instantly to his past) How music has evolved from albums to eight tracks, cassettes, CDs, and beyond How going to the record store was like a rite of passage as a teenage boy or girl Some of our favorite bands and singers—including the Beatles, The British invasion, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, Ginsburg, and many others How different genres of rock music have changed between 1980 and 2000 How weird it is to see people age (especially when you’re the same age as them)   All of the musicians and bands we’ve loved have gone through the same human struggles that you and I go through. They’ve just found a way to persevere—and they did it through music. Here’s to all the great musicians out there who just won’t quit.   Links & Resources The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 426 – FULL THROTTLE THURSDAY – You CAN Always Get What You Want: The Rolling Stones & The Power of Music Take the Full Throttle approach to life and dive into these past episodes from The Successful Mind Podcast: Episode 149 – Movers & Shakers w/ Grammy Award Winning Composer Mateo Messina Episode 392 – Accelerate Your Income Series: Operating Without Limits Inside Episode 347 – Distractions Are Distractions If you enjoy the show, would you please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts?

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_425-The_Inner_Game_of_Sales_Series-Part_IV.mp3 Are you looking for ways to boost sales in your business? Listen to this 5-part series titled, “The Inner Game of Sales.” You’ll learn tips and tricks to boosting your income in a short period of time. These tips will make selling easier, more profitable, and more fun. To get the best results, please listen to and study all 5 episodes. This is part 4 of 5. Sales conversations can be fun and seriously life-changing for people, as long as you really believe in what you’re offering to someone. The key to selling is get people to buy into what THEY want to do—and to tap into THEIR reasons for wanting to do it (not your reasons why you think they should buy). Given that you’re in control of the sales conversation, you can guide the process of creating urgency for the other person to go after what they truly want.  In today’s episode you’ll learn:   Amazing salespeople understand how the mind works, and how to lead the mind  How to bypass psychological resistance on a sales call by asking the person, “What do you really want?” How to get people to think deeply in the moment, so they can answer your questions (and why you shouldn’t rush in to “save” a person from answering a really deep question) How thinking about consequences of NOT doing something creates urgency, which moves the conversation into a buying conversation What causes a person to say “yes” during a sales call(they became aware that there’s something important in their life that they need—and want—to change) People who have a barrier up and don’t want to share anything aren’t your ideal clients (your ideal clients WANT to engage with you) How to limit refunds, lawsuits, and unhappy people talking about your product or service on the internet—by having great customer service   Plus, I share how I recognize where a sales conversation goes bad. (Hint: it has to do with “telling” versus “asking questions.”) Very few people have relationships in their life where somebody really cares about what they want—so when you actively show up and passionately ask the person what they want, they become fully, emotionally engaged in the question. This is what ramps up your sales!

As they start to wake up to who they are and what they truly desire, they’re like, “What the hell have I created?” Their life is a big problem, like the Titanic. They’re wondering, “How do I turn this thing around and get everything moving in the right direction?” If you want to start pursuing your desire, there will be a transition phase as you move in a new direction. This transition can spark more fear. The tendency is to hold onto something to try to feel better, more secure, or grounded. In order to move forward, you have to hold onto the truth—and keep the truth in front of you as you take action. In today’s episode you’ll learn:   The higher side of yourself wants something different that’s not based in fear or insecurity Everything you secretly desire in your heart is also seeking you—but it can’t see you until AFTER you make the decision to step into it and trust it When you get tired—emotionally tired, physically tired, or psychologically tired—it’s easier just to accept “what is” than to take a stand for what you truly want No matter what you’re facing, you should always ask, “Who am I?” and, “Am I coming from fear or desire?” Whether you make a decision based in fear or desire—either way, it has to grow When you put yourself in the right state of mind and alter your thoughts toward things and people—those things and people will alter the way they show up for you Law, not confusion is the dominating principle in the universe   To create what you want, you’ll have to let go of certain things to make space for what you really desire.   Links & Resources Break free of the worry, doubt, and fear that are holding you captive with more mindset shifting episodes from The Successful Mind Podcast: Episode 183 – You Have a Right to be Rich…So Why Aren’t You?

At the age of 90, William Shatner, best known for his famous role in Star Trek, went to space aboard Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin New Shepard rocket. He was only up there for 10 minutes (and it’s debatable whether it was really “space” or just the edge of space)—but doing that at his age broke so many paradigms about what’s possible.  Ten years ago, Shatner turned down an offer from Virgin Galactic to go into space, due to his fear of flying. He eventually overcame his fear, then blasted into space with Bezos’ rocket. In today’s episode BT and I discuss:   William Shatner’s trip to space, his emotional reaction to it, and my thoughts on space tourism as a business How things that were once “science fiction” a few decades ago (like the flip phone) are now a real part of our everyday life The drama around Shatner and some of his co-workers (like George Takei) on Star Trek How the Pentagon admitted they have the footage of “unidentified aerial phenomenon” (a.k.a. UFOs) in San Diego and on the east coast Humanity’s tendency to tell stories about aliens being hostile towards us (as if we assume other lifeforms won’t have advanced emotional maturity) How strange it is that we haven’t gone back to the moon, because we apparently “lost” the information on how to get back Why some intellectuals and scientists can’t enjoy science fiction, due to their need to be right The billionaire rivalry between Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk and the race to get humanity into space   Going into space is an act of risking your life. It’s not something I personally have on my bucket list. But I find it very interesting how people are exploring and using their imagination to bring new things into the world.   Links & Resources The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 423 – FULL THROTTLE THURSDAY – Beam Me Up Bezos!

Listen to this 5-part series titled, “The Inner Game of Sales.” You’ll learn tips and tricks to boosting your income in a short period of time. These tips will make selling easier, more profitable, and more fun. To get the best results, please listen to and study all 5 episodes. This is part 3 of 5. Understanding how to take control of a sales conversation makes you a much stronger salesperson. During a sales call, it’s more effective to ask questions than to “tell” a person anything. People are programmed to answer questions—and if you understand this, you can greatly improve your sales. Two of the most important questions to ask during a sales call are:   “What do you want?” (And understanding why they want it) “Why do you think you’re not getting it?” (This gives you some perspective on how they view the world. Do they see themselves as a victim? Or as responsible for their outcomes?)   You also need to determine the “perceived value” the prospect has in their mind—i.e., why they see your offer as valuable (or not). Their perceived value is based on their perception, not your perception. The prospect isn’t buying the features and benefits you think they’re buying In today’s episode you’ll learn:   How to maintain control of a sales conversation and ensure the person is focused (not distracted) during the call You don’t have to “create rapport” on a sales call—instead, people will follow your directive if it’s presented the right way Whenever you tell somebody the price of your offer, it causes a psychological reaction in every person—and they immediately compare your price to something else Why you should never be in a rush during a sales conversation Why you must pay close attention to your tone of voice when you’re asking someone a question (like “what do you want?”) Why “zero noise” should come out of your mouth after you ask the questions   You should treat sales calls as important—because what you’re offering is important, and these aren’t just casual conversations at a bar. You should feel deep in your soul that your product or your service changes someone’s life and makes it better in some way.

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_421-TEM90A_MDM_8-10-20-Mind_is_the_Master_Power.mp3 In As a Man Thinketh, James Allen writes about the power of your mind. Through your mind, you can literally shape your entire world. You create everything in your life—including what you want and what you DON’T want. “Mind is the master power that molds and makes,” he writes. You can “bring forth a thousand joys” or “a thousand ills.”  Your thinking may be done in secret, but as Allen demonstrates—whatever you continually manifest in the exterior world is a clue as to what you’ve been thinking about for a long time.  In today’s episode you’ll learn:   A man is literally what he thinks You’re the master of your own life, even in your weakest state—and even if you misgovern your own household Your character and who you are is the sum of all of your thoughts People create drama in their life, because they don’t have any another option in their consciousness Whenever someone does something that appears to be “bad,” remember this phrase—“I understand that they don’t understand” Nobody intentionally destroys another person or themselves from a conscious perspective; it’s always an unconscious belief that’s causing them to do that So much of what we do (and how we react to others) is completely unconscious   When we judge things in our life, this makes our experience more difficult. Judgment not only destroys our self-esteem, but it keeps us locked into our “story,” which is difficult to break out of. It blocks us from seeing the truth.  No matter what’s going on in your life, you can remove the judgment from it and say, “This is interesting—why am I creating this in my life?” Remember that your mind is creating your circumstances; not the other way around. Once you’re aware of this, you can then begin to change the patterns of thought that are causing things to show up that you don’t want.   Links & Resources Would you like to join other successful minds in a supportive community full of people focused on growth?  If so, check out my FREE Transformation Facebook Group.

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_420-Full_Throttle_Thursday-Rogan_vs_Gupta.mp3 The internet is buzzing over Joe Rogan’s recent podcast interview with CNN head doctor, Dr. Sanjay Gupta. For three hours they discussed COVID, vaccinations, and how the media has been handling the pandemic.  I’ve been watching Rogan for many years—he’s a very curious human being with a wide range of guests from all different landscapes. I was excited to hear that Gupta would be on the show. I thought, “This will make sense. This will bring some real answers. There will probably be a good debate here.”  But what happened during the podcast—and what happened after—caused so many questions in my mind about what Gupta’s real agenda was…I had to share my take on it. Like many others, Rogan is simply trying to find the truth. But it’s apparent that we’re not allowed to have that conversation, because it keeps getting shut down. The narrative is, “Don’t talk about it. Our way is the only right way.” In today’s episode, BT and I discuss what we saw and heard in that interview. My hope is that we shed some light on what actually happened. I highly recommend you watch the JRE interview for yourself and be your own judge. We’ll leave it up to you to decide where you stand. I also want to encourage everybody to have open, honest conversations without fear of anybody, or fear of any repercussions. Say what you want to say instead of hiding behind it. You have an opinion that matters. This isn’t about “wins and losses” or “my side is better than yours”—it’s about coming to an understanding, having civil conversations, and being able to voice your opinion even if you think you may get canceled.   Links & Resources The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 420 – FULL THROTTLE THURSDAY – Finding TRUTH in the Joe Rogan vs Sanjay Gupta Interview Dr. Sanjay Gupta: Why Joe Rogan and I sat down and talked — for more than 3 hours More TRUTH BOMBS dropping like it’s how from The Successful Mind Podcast: Episode 169 – How I Can vs. Why I Can’t Episode 187 – Reality vs. Truth Episode 229 – How to Navigate Uncertainty – Part V If you enjoy the show, would you please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts?

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_419-The_Inner_Game_of_Sales_Series-Part_II.mp3 Are you looking for ways to boost sales in your business? Listen to this 5-part series titled, “The Inner Game of Sales.” You’ll learn tips and tricks to boosting your income in a short period of time. These tips will make selling easier, more profitable, and more fun. To get the best results, please listen to and study all 5 episodes. This is part 2 of 5. Most people who grew up in a middle-class, blue-collar family have negative associations about salespeople, and therefore don’t feel comfortable with sales. The only people who were taught that sales are amazing tend to be those who grew up in an entrepreneurial family. Your internal “stories” and beliefs about sales are controlling your ability to influence other people during sales conversations. If you want to change this, you need to get comfortable with influencing people—which starts with how you view sales, and the questions you ask people. In today’s episode you’ll learn:   Your job as a salesperson is to influence people and help them say “yes” to what they want Everybody wants something; they just have a difficult time getting to it inside of themselves The number one question to ask in a sales conversation is, “What do you want?” The goal of a sales conversation is NOT to convince anyone of anything; it’s to create a safe space for them to say “yes” to what they want—and to help them understand why they want to do something Most of us resist being “told” something; but everyone is programmed to answer questions  If you have someone’s engagement—if you have them volunteering information to you—you’re influencing them If there’s something “off” in your subconscious mind about how YOU feel about money, sales, or even yourself—you’ll have a value conflict and a “double binding message” that will cause the person not to want to buy from you   It’s amazing how often we talk ourselves out of doing something good for ourselves. The statistics around this are unbelievable. As a salesperson, if you understand this phenomenon, you can help people avoid doing that to themselves—by influencing them to say “yes” to what they truly want.

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_418-TEM90A_MDM_9-17-20-Break_Your_Rules.mp3 The average person knows all about what’s “impossible,” why something won’t work, why it can’t be done, and the “rules” that don’t work. That’s the definition of mediocrity. However, for those who seek success, there are certain rules that make you successful. You have to be willing to stake everything on those rules. As Napoleon Hill said in Think and Grow Rich, “Success comes to those who become success conscious.” In today’s episode you’ll learn:   Being “success conscious” means you’re aware of what it takes to win Being “failure conscious” means you let your external reality control what you think If you’re not getting the results you want, it’s because there’s a problem you’re not aware of—and once you become aware of it, you can change it If you’re not seeing a solution, you might have a “rule” set up in your mind that’s causing you not to see it—and which is causing you to go into the perfect excuse for why you can’t reach your goal You can demand to yourself that you see the solution to your problem (by understanding that if a problem exists, the solution must be here) Being “success conscious” is all about yes’s—everything in your marketing, advertising, speaking, books, and sales calls should be designed to do one thing very clearly—get a person to a “yes” or a “no” It’s better to get to a “no” quickly than to stay in the ambiguity of mediocrity and confusion    When you stop pursuing your goal because of a problem that shows up, it’s because you’ve convinced yourself you can’t do it, it won’t work, your resources have run out, or the thing you need isn’t here. Becoming success conscious allows you to change your reality based on how you think. Break the “rules” you’ve set up that have been holding you back.   Links & Resources Would you like to join other successful minds in a supportive community full of people focused on growth?  If so, check out my FREE Transformation Facebook Group.

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_417-Full_Throttle_Thursday-Most_Inspiring_Biographies.mp3 Today BT and I are delving into some of the best biographies I’ve ever read. Many of the world’s greatest leaders, businesspeople, and athletes didn’t experience success until later in life—after an arduous, continuous battle of overcoming themselves in order to get to that point. Many of the world’s greats went through extraordinary hardship, overcoming terrible things in their childhoods. While some people with difficult upbringings go on to do terrible things with their adult life, others (like Michael Jordan) channel their early difficulties into becoming one of the greatest of the greats. In this episode, we discuss:   How Michael Jordan was cut from his high school team and had a difficult childhood, yet went on to become of the greatest basketball players of all time How Abraham Lincoln faced depression, psychiatric issues, and failure after failure—and yet he made one of the greatest decisions ever in human history (“do we make slavery illegal? Are all men actually created equal?”) How Lincoln’s emancipation proclamation changed everything, as he tried to get back to the vision the founding fathers had for America—and why his decision to free the slaves was so unpopular at the time (if you think people hated Trump—you should see the hate they had for Lincoln) How General Patton’s biggest challenge was overcoming internally whether or not he was a coward—and if it weren’t for his actions during World War II, we might all be speaking German today How Ray Kroc believed he was here to do something big, and how he changed the world with McDonald’s (whether you think it’s good or bad, he ultimately changed the world)   When you read about these people’s lives, it seems like they were preparing for something big their whole life. If there’s anything we can learn from their stories, it’s that in order to become great, you have to overcome something great.   Links & Resources The Successful Mind Podcast on YouTube – Episode 417 – FULL THROTTLE THURSDAY – Best Biographies Take the Full Throttle approach to life and learning with more inspiring listens from The Successful Mind Podcast: Episode 007 – The Untethered Soul Episode 247 – The Last Dance & Setting the Highest Standard Inside Episode 366 – Be Relentless to Become Unstoppable If you enjoy the show, would you please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts?
