Today’s episode of Mindset Hackers we will talk about the quote “You are the average of the 5 people that you spend the most time with” by the great mindset mentor and personal development guru, Jim Rohn.

Jim Rohn is known as the godfather of personal development and was a mentor to Tony Robbins and so many other greats.

As much as I love and respect the legend Jim Rohn, I completely disagree, but not in a bad way. Jim was right that spending time around the right people, or the wrong people, can massively impact how your success follows.

The way I see it, you are actually the sum of EVERYONE that enters your sphere (your mindset, your environment), and this isn’t just people, but you are also the average of everything that you consume, such as the media, the music, the podcasts, the books, the shows, the news, the food and even your personal space.

You are so valuable and your sphere is so worthy of being protected from people who will...

Daylight savings time changed the course of my life.

I know that's a bold statement but it's true, here's what happened:

For my entire life, Fall DST was the day when you get an extra hour to sleep in!

After a few days you start to normalize to the new schedule.

In my days as a club promoter and DJ, it even meant an extra hour of partying, not to mention it often fell on Halloween night (the best clubbing night of the year).

But in 2018 on DST, for just one day out of my life, I decided to keep that hour for my personal development instead of sleeping in.

That extra hour was pure 'me' time, and put even in front of my workouts.

This is how I pay myself first with time.

I've now had 1000+ hours of meditation, reading books, listening to podcasts, journaling and visualization.

My stress level is virtually non-existent, my happiness and joy are through the roof and my income is extremely abundant because of the opportunities that have unfolded.

I only made the switch once and that hour...

"Well it's because....." you say defensively when someone asks you about it.

The job.
The relationship.
The behavior.
The parents.
The friend.

The story about why you aren't enough that keeps you from thinking and playing bigger.

To justify is to act from a place of fear rather than a place of power.

To justify is to give a discount for already damaged goods.

If you can't let go, you don't have your hands open to receive something better.

You could say:

I deserve better.
I am capable of more.
It no longer serves me.
What if I succeed?
What if I can make more?
I can have higher standards.
I will not let my life be average.
I can figure this out.
I can learn how.

What if you let go of everything you have to justify?

You will tap into your higher power and become the badass that you're meant to be!

Take ownership of everything.

No excuses. No justifications.

1 - Because it costs money and it will take away from what I have earned or saved up, I'll be going backwards instead of forwards.

2 - Because it takes up time and with as busy as I am right now, I just can't put anything more on my plate.

3 - Because now isn't the right time. The timing will be much better down the road when I am less busy.

Now, I know you are thinking those sound like a bunch of excuses that people say, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙢𝙮 𝙤𝙬𝙣 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙨.

But it really doesn't matter if it's and excuse or legit because the result is the exact same ...... nothing happens or changes.

Last fall I was asked to join what seemed to be a very expensive mastermind group and I said those 3 things, I don't have the time, it costs too much and now isn't the right time.

I felt good about the decision and had no regrets.

But this May I was approached again to join, but the price had increased another $5k from 8 months before and would exceed my mortgage.

When I started in sales back in 2013, I discovered a mindset that helped me to always have more than enough income and it has become a guiding principle for me ever since.

Sales often has a reputation for being:

Sleazy

Aggressive

Pushy

High pressure

Often in sales, reps put themselves first and do whatever it takes to make the deal happen and it often isn’t in the best interest of the client.

They call this ‘Commission breath’, and it stinks.

I started telling this to my clients:

“If I truly put you first, I’ll never have to worry about my paycheck”.

But I didn’t just say it, I did it.

I stopped worrying about my paycheck and just focused on truly putting my clients first.

And the money just rolled in.

Years later, I could tell my clients that this has always worked for me, if I put them first and I wouldn’t need to worry about my income.

Saying this to your clients is a major way to build trust (so long as its sincere).
