Here is the complete transcript of the podcast
Last night, I was searching for some documents. And I came across this PowerPoint presentation, the PowerPoint deck from 2016, early 2016, I was doing an event I remember. And this was a deck that I was preparing for that event. And I opened the deck. And one of the third or fourth slides on this deck caught my attention. Because I put in a lot of effort to create this slide. And I thought it makes sense to talk about it on today’s podcast. So here’s the backstory of the slide.
A year prior to maybe three months prior to this event, I had a gentleman come in to consult with me about a problem he was going through. And the conversation starts like this. I don’t like my job, I don’t like my car, I don’t like my house, nothing that I have I like, and I want to change all of that. And I keep hearing you on the radio, that hypnosis can change your life, transform your life, and all that. So I wanted to give it a try. And here I am. I said, are you thankful for anything that you have? Not really, you know, did not have a good, you know, childhood, not great education. Somehow I got into us because there was a lot of hiring going on. Not that I have any credentials. Somehow I stayed in my job. Somehow I bought a house somehow, somehow, I don’t like anything, I want to change everything. And along the way, as this conversation progressed, I tried a few things with him. And then I said, it’s easy to keep what you have and modify it, rather than trying to recreate or create something new. So you can recreate what you have, that’s easier as compared to creating something totally new. For some reason, he was hell-bent on creating something new, shall I start a business Shall I leave and go to a different city something some, something new, he wanted to create, and he and I kept on telling him Listen, it doesn’t matter where you go, your destiny is going to follow you and all that. But it’s easy working on something that you already have within you, rather than trying to bring in something that you do not have because it’s going to be expensive from taking time. So I was driving back. So then the way we ended that conversation was I told him, I said come to my seminar, and I’m going to have something for you. That’s going to make sense. And three months later, I was getting closer to the seminar, and I realized that this gentleman is going to come there. And I do not have a structure to explain to him how he can reconstruct his life. Hmm, how can I teach this man who is coming into this event how to reconstruct his life, I wanted a format, I wanted a structure. So this is how I put this slide together. So there is a lot of effort that went into it.
Now, let’s get into this, what is the slide? So this slide is about reconstruction, to something that you want to if you believe in the principle that you have what it takes within you. And all you have done is you have not yet explored that side of you, then it’s easy to kind of dig deep into, let’s say you have a lot going on with you. Okay, and you accumulated a lot of experience knowledge, no harm and all that. But then you really never mastered it, or you never really put this in a way where it created the confidence and self-esteem in you, which really gave you the identity, then this slide is going to make sense. So I’m going to go through this very, very quickly. First and foremost you keep doing what you’re doing. Don’t try to bring anything else into your life. You keep doing what you’re doing. And you preempt everything with an outcome question. So you woke up this morning, you went to the gym, you are going to work or you’re cleaning the kitchen or you’re doing the dishes, whatever. Ask what is the outcome. What happens if you clean the dishes? Okay, your husband or wife will become happy, okay? Your kids will become happy and then you have better control your time later on. And you have a clean kitchen for yourself, whatever it is. So everything that you do has to be preempted with an outcome question, if I do that, I’m going to do this, what is the outcome? The outcome is not simply just doing it, the outcome is something else that is much bigger than the work itself. So preempt everything with an outcome thinking.
Second, you got to have one mastermind conversation with somebody who has some mastery in something on a daily basis. I have many people in my life who have incredible mastery in everything that they do. Some people have multiple levels of mastery, just not one. I make an attempt to talk to one in virtual, who has some level of mastery in it, that Master has nothing to do with me, Masters talk and think differently. It’s not about, I’m willing to talk to a neurosurgeon, and have no idea, no knowledge about how medicine works, and have no access to how healthcare works myself, I’m more than happy to talk to a neurosurgeon, I am more than happy to sit down and talk to somebody who is working at NASA does some critical design of the flights and aerodynamics and all that I have no knowledge in that field, but then I’m willing to sit down and talk to them about life or something, whatever, just because they bring a whole different level of energy. So try to talk to a master once a day, if possible, regardless of what level, what profession they’re in, or what is their, their core affiliation.
Regardless of all that, then I would spend time on a daily basis, some time to master the science of communication, this podcast is all about that. The podcast numerous times talked about communication, I spent time learning the principles of communication, at least daily for some time, not a lot, then I will make an attempt to influence people around me with integrity. People influence others with money, people influence others with many other things. But it is not proven that only the single most significant tool that you need to influence people around you, is already within you. And you don’t need to learn this anymore. Because either you have it or you don’t have it, but most people have it, which is integrity. So be integral to who you are, and everybody around you will gravitate towards you. And we’ll do things and we’ll take your command and will obey all that, whatever it is. So you’ve got to be integral, then practice, persistence, whatever you’re doing, keep on doing for a long amount of time, mostly, there are no results, there are no results, there is nothing significant, that’s going to happen overnight. And if it happens, it’s a fluke and you don’t want that you want something that’s going to that you know for sure is going to work. And you know that it has come at a cost at a price and you know that it’s going to be with you long after that you can enjoy. And you know, it’s proven. So it needs some time. And then once you aren’t persistent with whatever you’re doing, the next thing is you got to maintain momentum, maintain momentum, whatever you started, just keep on doing over and over and over again, consistency and momentum. Okay, keep pushing, pushing the boundaries, but then keep on the pace going. And then the last one, you got to model excellence, anywhere, everywhere, wherever you see some excellence happening, got to model it, got to model it. There’s no shortcut.
Now, there are seven things in the slide, there are seven points I shared with you. If you simply do number one, and number seven, and ignore all the five in the middle, you will have an incredible life. I have ignored several things in the middle. And depending upon where I am, at any given point in time, I may not do all seven. So if you remove all the five, and you simply start today with the number one which is preempt everything with an outcome thinking, and then to the last one, which is model excellence model like modeling excellence could be from you, you’ve created something, you did something that came out to be amazing. model it again, model it again, keep on repeating it. So do number one, do number seven, ignore the five in the middle, and you will have an incredible life. I hope this is helpful. I hope, the pain agony, and effort that I went through to put this together is coming across the way I’m expressing this. Hopefully, it is hoped that’s all, in fact, there are some more slides in this deck. And I found them too. So I’ll come back and talk about them tomorrow. Thereafter, we’ll keep this going. Okay, and crazy. I’m just coming to the end of July of 2022. And this podcast is running daily. It’s unbelievable. At least what a week consistency I think I don’t know. I’m trying to keep the momentum going.
That’s all I’m doing. And thank you for your questions. Wonderful. Keep those questions coming. And we’ll keep this moving. And I’ll do whatever I take whatever it takes on my end to do whatever I can to contribute to you your success. That’s all for now. You take care of yourself and I’ll be talking to you as early as tomorrow. Stay tuned. Bye now.
