Are You A Bulldog? TAKE THE QUIZ: https://bulldogmindset.com/bulldog-quiz-podcast
Hello Bulldogs! John Sonmez from Bulldog Mindset Here, where I teach you how to go from the Victim Mindset to the Bulldog Mindset.
In this video we are gonna be talking about the most important thing that you should think about every single day, this is critical is you want to have success, if you to achieve your goals in life.
One of the principles that I live by is how you live one day, is how you live everyday. Now this is a principle that I subscribe to in my life and one of the guiding factors of my life.
And before you act lazy procrastinate, or not want to go to the gym, you should have this thought process. And the Key point is to make the habit of being Productive part of your everyday routine. If you follow the notion of " how I live one day is how i live everyday ", and you make your day a " productive day ", then imagine what your life would be a month from now, a year from now, 10 YEARS from now.
Now the three reasons why you should follow this principle is simple.it's more likely you're going to follow through and continue in that direction. So The fact of having a productive day every day, isn't really that hard after you get the habit of it. At first it will be a little bit hard, But you will follow through with it.
First reason is momentum: When you start on doing something, and going at some direction it will get easier to do it again one day after the other.
IT GOES IN BOTH DIRECTIONS, If you are used to following bad decisions that have bad impact on your life you will find it more difficult to do the right thing, same thing goes to making good decisions with positive impacts. YES, It does take will power and discipline to make good decisions, but again it gets easier with time.
Second reason is Habit: Most of what we do is on autopilot, it is by habit.And just like how you will continue having positive impact on your life by following the habit of having a productive day every day, If you get used to Procrastination and Laziness you're basically screwed.
Just like the habit of brushing your teeth or tying your shoes, You must focus on making everyday of your life a productive day. And do the things that are hard but most productive. And at the end is become somewhat automatic.
Third reason is RANDOMNESS: Most of what we do in life are random, creativity, productivity and chaotic. Even though a lot of it is happening through randomness. You don't really have a lot of control over your life as much as you might think.
So if you surrender to randomness and follow through with it, with no constancy, habit or momentum to do the right thing, then your life will follow through a random chaotic pattern. Someone some day will be a productive day , other will not.
And those are the reason why HOW I LIVE ONE DAY IS HOW I LIVE EVERYDAY - and Why I make sure that a Productive day in my life is everyday.

Hello Bulldogs! John Sonmez from Bulldog Mindset Here, where I teach you how to go from the Victim Mindset to the Bulldog Mindset.
TodayIi'll be responding to a question from one of my active subscribers Grant C., about Masculinity, achieve things and motivations in life.
Grants asks:
Hey John.
I have E-mailed you a few times now. I'm Grant, an avid follower of yours who really enjoys hearing what you have to say... I am serious, I literally tell myself in the back of my mind on a daily basis, what would John do in this situation, trying to associate your prospective thoughts together.
Although I don't agree with you on everything. you are someone who I aspire to be, being a different version though, not EXACTLY like you of course.
John, A am having a deep sense of trouble in questioning who I am as a person. No victim mindset here, but I feel like most of my peers in college are just not at the wisdom, or even WANT to develop some sort of Bulldog Mindset... I am not saying everyone has to be a self-dev guru, but my motivations and aspirations in life are beyond the college years.
I want to develop my social skills, become a better man (just bought The Rational Male), and understand what being a real man is like... so I am not saying the party scene is completely out and I think it's bad to be in the party scene... I just aspire to really maximize my blessings, my gifts, and all the things I have been given in this world to a maximum.
Is my thinking wrong here man? You talk about this a lot, not living by other standards. Hell I created a damn video on that about women and related cybersecurity (you've seen the video). My own mother and father, who are mostly supportive, have told me that college is the only way and that I should simply have fun as I am in college, and stop focusing on my career so much, "joing the Greek System Grant!" Again, I focus on my career and build social skills at the same time. I can't do it though man. It's in my nature to be and continue to be someone who goes for it... I feel like it's my responsibility to finish college as they are funding it too.
My heart is not in college, I have found and identified gap in this industry, cybersecurity. The degree is a waste of mu time. I don't just say this either, I wake up at 5:30 AM and bust my ass to ensure I am an action taker and not one of "those" who is coming up with BS. I know, however, sometimes you just got to do both until you have the results to back you up, until then, you have to be in college?
For girls, this definitly sounds like the scarcity mindset, but i am more mature than them (and I am in no means superior at all), just a little bit further along in my maturity: I am thinking about myself as a man and not a boy who goes to parties and smokes Weed. I don't watch porn and I am not in the hookup scene, I am in need to be patient with that.
Parts of me, want to buy a one-way ticket with a backpack, laptop, two or three pairs of clothes, and really, truly understand who I am as a person...
I know this totally sounds like self-doubt: Should I just stop doing att of this, stop listening to you, stop with the YouTube, stop with the website, and get my college degree, and just be that "normal" guy ...
Long E-mail: I know ... If you ever get the chance to read this. thank you ....
I have attached my 2019 goals if you were curious...

Are You A Bulldog? TAKE THE QUIZ: https://bulldogmindset.com/bulldog-quiz-podcast
Hey guys John Sonmez from Bulldog Mindset here!
Well today we're gonna talk about a girl who cheated on her boyfriend with another girl! (that's quite the hook).
#GirlfriendCheating #CheatingGirlfriend #Cheating
One of Our subscriber asked:
Hello John
I'm 24 and I am in a relationship with my girlfriend for almost 5 years. Our relationship was always great. She recently cheated on me with a GIRL! when I said that I have found out about it, she said that she regrets it a lot and I forgave her. Now I have a hard time dealing with broken trust. Can you please suggest what should I do now?
P.S. I appreciate your life mission to help and teach others and you helped me a lot and you have become my role model. Looking forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely.
Here is my answer:
It doesn't matter if it's girl or a guy. Keep in mind this is not a pessimistic view, you just assume that your partner will cheat on you and you should be okay with that, that doesn't mean you have to TOLERATE it! so if you cant to kick them out the door that is fine totally cool man.
Because at the end of the day, you don't have an idea what is happening in someone's head. what they are thinking about.
And that's a stoic point of view. That doesn't mean you shouldn't trust anybody, and act on it. What I mean is, even if I don't trust others I do give them my trust, because I can handle what will happen in case betray my trust. It won't wreck my world that's what I mean!
At the end of the day, people are people. Just like your they are capable of a lot of fucked up shit when the situation is suitable, so you've got let them be. Assume that they are gonna do fucked up shit, again don't tolerate it, but rather expect it to happen eventually at some moment in time.
Like if I hired someone, an accountant, I already chose them. I know he is skilled and all. But if he end up stealing from me I'll fire him and sue his ass. I'm not tolerating his behavior, but i'm acting in a emotionless way.
Most of people are way to reactive and emotional in day to day situations. Everything is "hollyshit moment" in their lives.
And before I give an answer, I want you to act on this base in your life. You see whenever you go in a relationship don't expect there will be loyalty or fidelity, you don't own anyone, they are responsible for their own actions. And if they have the tendencies to cheat on you. let them do it, let them cheat.
If you drive the car, expect someone to cut you off. I happens all the time, so it will bound to happen to in a moment of life.
When it comes to dealing with this situation, on one hand it might be beneficial to you. You know that she is into girls. So all morals and judgments aside, this can be of amusement to you. This is a part of her after all and from her perspective she is not getting everything she wants. So you can give her the freedom to do this, OR even be involved in this ! and with her sharing more secrets with you not afraid of judgement, will make your bond even stronger.
At the end of the day, she is your girlfriend and she is into girls! either kick her to the curb OR get involved in it.
You can't force other people to change, or change just for you. And I want to help you make the best decision, this is life and shit happens!
Thar's what I think when it comes to trust in women or a woman and your Girlfriend Cheating on you

Today we are going to be reviewing a book about business, entrepreneurship and assets. #business #entrepreneur #entrepreneurmotivation #richdadpoordad
Robert Kiyosaki has written great deal of books about business entrepreneurship and business. Today we will review one of his most famous books Rich Dad Poor Dad and discussing if it's a scam.
I got an interesting comment, where I talked about Rich Dad Poor Dad with Dan Lok, and how it fundamentally changed my mind.
I got this comment and E-mail from a subscriber raiding a valid concern. And I want to address some of the controversies, tell you guys about what do I think about rich dad poor dad, whether it is a good Book, and if we should care about the author reputation.
Here is the Thing, If you go back in time, at the time I read rich dad poor dad there wasn't a great deal of books teaching about entrepreneurship, investments, assets, and business.
So at the Time, Rich Dad Poor Dad was an eye opening for me. There was a difference in my way of thinking after I read the book. I was focused on living paycheck to paycheck, save money buy a new car ect .... I wasn't thinking about assets and investments and how to duplicate that money for me to live off with passively.
So Rich Dad Poor Dad totally changed my mind and way of thinking of things whether they are either an asset or an expense or Asset and liability.
About the author, Robert Kiyosaki, a lot of controversy surrounding him, I don't know exactly what they are, but there are clear facts that he did some dishonest things, he misrepresented himself.
And to be Honest I don't Know Robert Kiyosaki, I never met him. So I'm not gonna judge him. I'm just saying what it is publicly known about him.
But still, that doesn't change my opinion about the book rich dad poor dad. I also Know that the book contain factual errors, Bad advise etc ... And I AGREE it's missing a key advise. I don't tell you how to find these assets, how to own them, where to find them? that is my biggest complain.
However, the story in Rich Dad Poor Dad, is dumped down to reach the majority of people. Including me the time I read it. I also agree that I would choose a book based on the reputation of the author. However, Wisdom is Wisdom even if it is said from the mouth of fools.
And At the end remember, follow people like me like dan lok like robert kiyosaki, like tonny robins but don't worship these people.
The concerns are valid but it is not an excuse.

Hello Bulldogs! John Sonmez from Bulldog Mindset Here, where I teach you how to go from the Victim Mindset to the Bulldog Mindset.
And today's subject is motivation and success. Motivation is not required for success, so what does that mean ? It's one of the principles that I live by, So what you're gonna find in life, what you're gonna find in anything that you try and do that's hard, at some point you're gonna loose motivation.
Initially, when you're gonna start doing something is because you're gonna be motivated, when you're hungry you're gonna be motivated to get some food, But if you're gonna keep eating, you're gonna get full, and the motivation is gonna disappear.
And that's very similar to life, and how life works in many ways. whatever you have that's giving you motivation at some point it's gonna get satiated, and just because it is satiated it doesn't mean that it's done, it doesn't mean that you've reached success.
People think they have to be motivated, that they have to have motivation and passion in order to succeed, in order to reach success, in order to live up to their dream. Otherwise, their doing the wrong thing, and that's not true.
What is required to reach success, is not motivation it is consistency, discipline and commitment. You have to show up everyday, you have to do it. And that's the reason I believe motivation is not required for success, that's the principle because I know from my own personal experience, I will loose motivation.
I wake up in the morning many days, and I don't want to do the work, I don't want to make videos, I don't want to go to the gym, I don't want to run, I don't want to fast ... BUT I have planned out what I want to achieve in life. You've got to have a plan, when I have a plan, I know what i'm supposed to do I can do it without motivation. When I don't know what to do then i'm gonna need motivation.
That's the real " secret " to success. The secret key is not motivation the secret key is having a plan and following through with it. Because at the end of the day, you just have to show up and do the work.
Then you will get there, you will achieve success, even without motivation you know when and where to do the work so you just have to follow through.
And that's is the real secret key to success , it is not motivation one must have commitment, discipline to execute on a plan.

Hello Bulldogs! John Sonmez from Bulldog Mindset Here, where I teach you how to go from the Victim Mindset to the Bulldog Mindset.
Today i'm doing a response video to a subscriber that asked:
Hello John,
I am a big fan of your content and have been following you for a couple of years now. I apologize off the bat that this is not a business proposition, but I do not use social media so this was the only email address I could find to contact you.
I know you are a busy man, but i wanted to reach out to you and ask you a more personal question: You are helping spread a message and impact peoples lives positively, and I admire what you do and why you do it. That being said, why do you and other content creators who want to spread a message have ads on their YouTube videos or sell products/books? (Please don't misunderstand me. I fully believe in paying for things of value and am purchasing you book shortly as well). I'm meaning , You don't do it for the money. That's obvious. So what motivates you to still market /increase profits from yours products/services? I'm simply trying to understand the mindset of bulldogs and people more successful than myself.
Anyways, keep up what you're doing, it really makes a difference to many people, and I appreciate everthing your content has done for me personally.
Best to you.
In a nutshell, why a millionaire, someone like me, who is a multi millionaire what to make more money , why ?
And this is what we will find out today, that it's not just about spreading a message, but also running a business, being able to support the business and do cool stuff ect ...
Money isn't necessary for me, or for my life style. As you know I live a pretty normal life. I'm not so big on buying expensive stuff.
Money do get you up on the happiness scale. But happiness doesn't have to be the highest goal in itself. It is about being able to live good fulfilling experiences, experience that demand money .
Being able to grow the bulldog mindset, being able to make it support itself and so on ...
That's is why I want more money.
