Confidence You Need to Send Mail (LA 962)

Transcript:

Steven Butala:                   Steve and Jill here.

Jill DeWit:                            Happy day.

Steven Butala:                   Welcome to the Land Academy Show. Entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.

Jill DeWit:                            And I'm Jill DeWit. Broadcasting from sunny, southern California.

Steven Butala:                   Today, Jill and I talk about the confidence you need to send mail. This is such an important topic.

Jill DeWit:                            It is.

Steven Butala:                   I have a lot of old school stories. There are just people that ... the gist of it's this. There are people that are confident. It's not just confidence to send the mail, that's one thing. Anybody can kind of get over that or learn it or whatever, but it's the confidence to make an acquisition decision.

Jill DeWit:                            Right.

Steven Butala:                   And not everybody is set up for this on the planet.

Jill DeWit:                            Some people have no confidence no matter what they do. That's a tough one, I feel bad for them. So maybe we can talk about ways that you can build your confidence if you need to. Because I think that's super important. Then there's other people like we all know them, I think you and I are two of them, that we have confidence no matter what it is. I'll be like, "All right, bring it." We've done some different ventures, there's other sub companies going on in our world that we don't think twice about it. We may not be fully versed on it, but we know how to run companies, we know how to start companies. And so we just kind of dive in.

Jill DeWit:                            So I think we're the other spectrum. We have a pretty healthy dose of confidence you and I.

Steven Butala:                   I've known you for a long time, and your confidence level amazes me, even to this day. On a daily basis, about little things. And I'm not talking about beating your chest, narcissistic wack job. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about making little decisions like, "That's not the logo we're gonna use for House Academy." Right, "I think it should actually look like this, this, this, and this." And have it be a good decision that sticks for a long time. Or how to answer somebody's concern about a mailer that didn't go the way that it's supposed to go on Land Investors, and here's why.

Steven Butala:                   I'm not talking about like my car is better than yours.

Jill DeWit:                            Exactly.

Jill DeWit:                            Or, "Does my hair look great?"

Steven Butala:                   There's so much false confidence.

Steven Butala:                   Yeah, especially women are subject to so much more stuff, professional women are than men. And you can just see it a mile away when it's see through and it's a mess, you know?

Jill DeWit:                            Thank you.

Steven Butala:                   Before we get into it, let's put Jill's mic in the right place first.

Jill DeWit:                            I thought it was.

Jill DeWit:                            You don't like it? I'm good, thank you.

Steven Butala:                   It's like this.

Jill DeWit:                            Oh, I'm good.

Steven Butala:                   And let's take a question posted by one of our members. On the LandInvestors.com online community, it's free.

Jill DeWit:                            It's like you're moving in front of my face.

Steven Butala:                   Did I mess up your mojo?

Jill DeWit:                            I thought you were moving in front of my face. This is what I thought you were doing. "Let's fix Jill's mic."

Steven Butala:                   You know that's probably what it should be.

Jill DeWit:                            I should be like this.
