What does it take to be a Jedi Master of gratitude?

In todays episode of Mindset Hackers I will discuss the 4 Levels Of Gratitude and how expanding your practice of gratitude will lead to more happiness, joy and abundance in your life.

I've built a framework to help you see where you are and where you could be when it comes to practicing gratitude in your life. 

I  will also share with you why a focus on gratitude can amplify your level of abundance because it helps your reticular activating system see the world with a different lens.

"Gratitude opens up the doorway to the power of wisdom and the creativity of the Universe" Deepak Chopra 

Your beliefs around money have everything to do with your financial success later on in life. 

When you were a child, in your most malleable state, you are absorbing your beliefs about life from the people and situations that you experience. 

You are literally being programmed by your parents, by advertising, by your peers, even by the financial system.

You were told to save, save, save. Kirsten and I agree that this teaches people to live in scarcity. To 'live within your means'. 

True abundance is not living constricted, it is about expansion. 

Kirsten and I talk about some of the things that we hear from our parents in our childhood that create our money blocks and money limiting beliefs.

Kirsten also talks about Grow and Arrow, her financial consulting firm, where she not only advises financially but helps her clients remove money blocks and limiting beliefs around money, and you don't often find that. 

Kirsten is also a master of using social media for marketing and she has used both LinkedIn and TikTok to create clients and expand her existing business. 

We also talk about going 'against the grain' of the common money influencers like Suze Orman, David Bach and David Ramsey that tell you to cut up your credit cards, pay off debt and live within your means. 

It's all about context. 

Today On Mindset Hackers we are going to be talking about what I call the Dopamine Treadmill, when you constantly chase the symbols of success and still end up so unfulfilled and unhappy in life and why that happens from a neuroscience perspective. 

I'll also give 5 tips on how to let happiness, success and wealth coexist together. 

Matthew McConaughey said it best in Wolf of Wall Street:

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

Today on Mindset Hackers I am going to discuss the idea of 'raising your frequency' to bring up the energy level of those you interact with. 

Imagine being able to walk into your next interview, teach a class or a coach, do your next sales call or presentation, be on a stage or on a podcast and come in with a transferrable energy that lifts others up and inspires. 

Epic sales people know how to influence and inspire by what I call the 'Transfer of Enthusiasm'. Your energy level is completely transferable and you will be able to affect not only your own state, but the state of others, which can put them in a place where they are ready to take action.

You know those people that you meet who just make you feel good when you are around them, they bring up the level of energy in a room, they know how to impact others, they influence those around them.

You also know the people that are a buzzkill in a room and bring down the energy, and have the frequency of Zombie.

Raising your own frequency and that of others isn't difficult to do, it just takes intention and use these 3 steps to make every interaction with others a more meaningful one. 

As the great Tony Robbins says: "The quality of your life is the quality of your relationships". 

Success is not about the amount of money you make, but the lives that you impact. And money is a by-product of the lives that you impact.

On this episode of Mindset Hackers we talk about the only 2 things that you need to succeed in sales, business, entrepreneurship or any other professional pursuit. 

Before we start, I'd like to share my 4 mindset mantras that I say to myself every single day:

Affirmation #1 - If they can do it, so can I.

Affirmation #2 - I can figure this out.

Affirmation #3 - I can go harder.

Affirmation #4 -  I will do whatever it takes.

Those four mindset mantras are painted above my shower so that every morning, above my cold shower, I see those as I embrace the cold. I thump my chest and I say those out loud and I prime my day to crush it with the momentum of a freight train. Then I start my day.

Now back to the 2 things you need for success: 

Knowledge & Action.

Simple right? Not so much. It takes a strong person to seek out knowledge because as soon as you do, then the excuses start showing up in your mindset.

We allow ourselves to believe that these are real limitations, but they are not, they are created by our mind to keep us in a safe place. 

If you make it past the excuses, you need to start taking action with the knowledge that you have acquired and not just be a collector of knowledge.

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 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 say 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 suck your energy or bring drama or negativity into your life. In this episode we discuss how people can be addicted to drama or negativity or to complaining.

Your mindset is being impacted even by the people that don’t spend a lot of time with you, and that energy can be spent in other ways that help you move forward.

Please make sure to share this Mindset Hackers episode with someone who can use this and I would be so very grateful for a review! 

Today let's talk about a very specific limiting belief, which is the voice in your head that tells you that 'It's just not worth it".

A limiting belief is a story that your mind tells you to keep yourself 'safe' when you venture into new areas.

Limiting beliefs are learned. 

Limiting beliefs are untrue.

Limiting beliefs hold you back. 

A close friend of mine told me that he struggles with drive and motivation at the end of a long day of work, being a dad, working out and personal development and helping his kids with homework, how can he possibly have the energy to create a new business that will lead to a better life of fulfillment?

He did a deep dive into the voice in his head that holds him back and realized that it tells him 'that it's just not worth it', so it makes it so hard to resist that voice and keep on going.

In this episode, we break down some ways to overcome the voice that says 'it's not worth it', and I share examples of how I have had this come up in my own life.

Wealth Advisor and former college football coach Kevin Adleman talks with me about how our financial system has set most people up to fail by teaching them to have a scarcity mindset because they teach you to scrimp and save, to live within your means until one magic day when you retire, then you need to live even more within those boundaries until you die. 

Kevin Adelman discusses the importance of mindset, your subconscious and your personal development as it relates to financial wealth. He talks about Tony Robbins, Jim Rohn, Robert Kiyosaki, Warren Buffet and how they have shaped and influenced his life and career. 

Kevin talks about his backstory where he breaks down to the point where he felt so lost, then found a Tony Robbins book that changes everything for him and allowed him to move from a scarcity to an abundance mindset and build a 7 figure business. 

This is an absolutely powerful discussion about how Kevin helps teach his clients about scarcity and abundance mindset and how to move from once side to the other. We also discuss why human behavior and the our prehistoric roots have scarcity and fear built into us to keep us safe and in a tribe, and how those impulses no longer serve us.

We also talk about money blocks in your mindset, the limiting beliefs around money, the subconscious mind, the blocks to abundance like jealousy or saying wealth people are lucky.

Today on Mindset Hackers I bring you a real life Rocky story. This is a powerful interview with a former Professional Mixed Martial Artist and Business Owner, Shane Fichter. 

Shane has an incredibly inspiring story of growing up with a meth addicted mother and lived homeless for a good portion of his childhood. He also suffered the loss of his father to suicide, but later was inspired by a hard working uncle. 

Later in life, Shane started using painkillers which lead to an opioid addiction and then hardcore drug use. 

The rock bottom was ending up in prison, then deciding he needed to make a change.

After getting clean and hitting the lowest of lows, Shane started training, then fighting in the cage.
