Eddie Salinas went from hustling to earning more in one month than he could have ever dreamed of. What were some of the biggest mental blocks he had to overcome to get to where he is today? What does it take to get into business and actually flourish? On this episode, my good friend Eddie Salinas shares what it takes to breakthrough and step into a life of abundance.

Takeaways

People’s egos do not accept starting small.

We let our egos tell us that we can make it without someone else’s help.

Your earning level is in complete relation to what you used to earn in the past.

All results happen as a result of a strong 90-day cycle.

At the start of the show, we talked about Eddie’s life journey and how he overcame his own ego. Next, we talked about why it’s so critical for you to get a coach, and why it’s so important to trust in the right process.

We also spoke about;

• Transitioning from hustling to managing properties
• What your earning level is related to
• The importance of a 90-day cycle

People always want to hurry the process to success, but there are practices you need to put in place, and mindsets you have to put to bed before you actually go anywhere. You have to be honest about whether you’re really working hard or just telling yourself that you are. Also, find people who can help guide you. Until you have someone in your life who has accomplished what you want to accomplish, and you are listening and learning from them, basis success won’t happen. Believe in the process and trust the people around you.

So many of us are not earning more because we’re not being more. What’s poisoning your outcome and ability to grow? Why is accountability a major part of success? What does it take to truly overcome your ego and the pain of doing the work? On this episode, I talk to Robert Watkins who transformed himself from earning 50k to over 350k. We discuss the nuts and bolts of improving your life, including psychology, strategy, vision, and accountability.  

Takeaways

People get stuck at low-income levels because they think that’s all there is.

Left to your own devices, you will fail, that’s why you need accountability.  

If you want to do better in business, get out of a bad neighborhood as soon as possible.

Your outer world is a direct reflection of what’s going on in your inner world.

At the start of the show, Robert shared some of the challenges he had in his life, including selling 1 home in a year, a challenging relationship and how that affected his confidence. Next, we talked about how the inner world affects the outer world, and how the ego gets in our way. We also talked about the importance keeping your word and cultivating belief and confidence.

We also discussed;

• Why people get stuck at low incomes
• Accountability and the importance of who you surround yourself with
• Why leadership and education are so important in converting prospects

Transformation and growth are possible, but it all comes down to the pieces you put in place so limiting beliefs stop affecting you. Whatever paradigms you have about the world, you can absolutely take control of your psychology and break them. You have to be able to handle accountability, work hard to be more than you are right now, and make winning more important than what the ego tells you.

When you have lower standards, it’s so easy to let yourself get away with waking up late and not meeting your goals. Why is it so important to have higher standards for yourself? What are the three states human beings can choose to live in? What are the things that should push you towards your goals? On this early morning episode, I talk about standards.

Takeaways

When you make many excuses, you end up creating a story.

Scarcity and lack shouldn’t be the thing that lights the fire.

If your standards are low, that’s on you.  

At the start of the show, I shared my personal experience with getting up on time, and how to identify what abundance means for you. I also shared how increasing your standards increases your income.

I also spoke about

• How making excuses impacts you
• The three states people can choose to live in
• Why scarcity and lack should never light your fire

The thing that should light your fire when it comes to your goals and work is a deep desire to win, and not going back on your promises. It’s also about setting an example for what you know is possible for yourself. Getting better is what should always inspire, drive and push you.

Replay Summary-

Everyone is pushing the concept of grind and hustle, but they’re going about it the wrong way. Why is the grind and hustle message so popular right now? What attitude should you have towards it? On this episode, I share what I think about the idea of hustle and grind.

Takeaways

People want to be told about grind and hustle because no one wants to work.

There’s a season for grind and hustle but it’s not supposed to be forever.

Don’t be an entrepreneur with an employee mindset.

At the start of the show, we talked about readjusting after a holiday, and the thoughts you should have as you move towards the end of the year. Next, we talked about grind and hustle, and why it’s such a seductive concept for young entrepreneurs. We also discussed the biggest reason entrepreneurs in America fail.

We also discussed;

• What hustle and grind should look like
• The sacrifices you have to make and what they are for
• What your ultimate business goal should be

There are different phases in business, and the hustle and grind phase is just one. If it feels like forever, then you are not winning. People stay stuck in the hustle and grind phase because they don’t put in enough work for it to just be a season. Don’t grind and hustle to pay your bills, grind and hustle for a vision, a purpose and something greater so you can actually create a life. If you grind the right way, you will eventually have the right to leverage your concepts, thoughts, and the machine you’ve built, and that’s freedom.

Everyone wants the easy way out when it comes to success. Why is it so important to understand that there are no shortcuts? How do you unblock your limiting beliefs about money? How do you unlearn the negative things you were conditioned to think? On this episode, I give you an exclusive look into our coaching conversations with clips from our sessions.

Takeaways

The more energy and emotion you put into one thing, the more let down you could potentially have.

If what you think is possible for your life is mediocre, that’s what will manifest.

Lean on people on the journey to success: those people will motivate you and give the push you need.  

At the start of the show, we talked about the importance of not tying your emotions up in one thing, and why the people who lean on you can actually help you grow and go towards your goals. We also talked about discovering the meaning you give to money.

We also shared;

• Why there’s no easy way out
• Unlearning things you saw in your community
• How your success can be an example to others

Money is like a water hose, and limiting beliefs and limiting self-talk step on it and block the flow. If you have things holding you back psychologically, it will show in the way you talk and express yourself. Always think about the future version of you, and what you want that person to achieve. Connect who you are now to that person by taking the necessary actions.
