Respect The Grind with Stefan Aarnio

Let's remember something: Anyone who is pursuing entrepreneurship, business or real estate investing, your relationships are your one and only asset. We are now entering the 7 Core Levels of Agreement universe. The base of these levels is two words we often use when we talk about the weather: COLD or WARM.

The seven levels of agreement work in a sequence. That means you must follow each step to make it to the next level. From clichés, facts, and opinions, to hopes, dreams, feelings, weaknesses, and needs, these levels of agreement will give you the wide capacity and understanding to reach a true agreement or make a successful sale.

We all know opportunities come from connecting and being intimate with the people we come into contact with. A situation of this kind can present at work, at home, with our family or friends, or even with someone we just met. At the end of the day, we are all looking for the same thing: connecting with others. Learn to never be stuck in a conversation with nothing to say ever again. Become a master of connection and transition upwards with stock questions in the 7 levels of agreement.

"If you can connect with a person, and move them through the levels of agreement without creating conflict or blockage in the sequence, you will find what motivates them, what scares them, what their concerns are, and finally what they need to feel secure to work with you and your company."

What should we do when we realize our dreams are dead?

Stefan's rock band sank like the Titanic and with that, he felt empty and exhausted. He didn't move, didn't shower and felt like no sleep at all. Some people would say he was depressed, but he called it burnout.

"I felt like an obsolete computer that had been tossed in the trash bin. I had been a loyal and compliant machine; I had faithfully gone down the assembly line of the entire education system from kindergarten through high school graduation and on to a post-secondary degree. I had gone to school; I had gotten a degree and I had a 'good' job just like I was told."

After the great disappointment, Stefan was the only thing he didn't aspire to be: an average guy.

You may know that average is dangerous, but extraordinary is where the fortune lies. After reading Rich Dad Poor Dad in his mother's couch, real estate became his new rock'n'roll.

Stefan started investing at 22. He had no cash, no credit, and most importantly, no credibility of any kind when he started. On his own, he had to learn the skills required to play the game around Money People. "I was a punk kid who had taken two thousand dollars worth of real estate seminars and had to make the dream happen."

Discover the 3 major ingredients of putting a real estate deal together:

The first and most important ingredient is money. Every entrepreneur needs money to start a business. After the money, comes the people; the team that will run and operate the business. Whether is a lemonade stand or building an apartment complex, people often represent the management and the technical knowledge of the business. Lastly, the third ingredient: "the deal". A deal can be anything from a traditional business to patented gadgets. However, Money People Deal will focus on real estate as the deal, that is the most valuable part of the business,

"A good deal can be like a magnet quickly attracting the people and the money to get the deal done. In contrast, a bad deal can be impossible to fund."

Learn what's the easiest way to play the deal game in four steps, how to find investors, and why does "the money" love money people deal. Enter https://stefanaarnio.com/mpd/ and get a copy of Money People Deal today!

For centuries, entrepreneurs have taken resources from different sources and have assembled them to create higher value. Great entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs, Henry Ford and Donald Trump have all understood very clearly how to assemble Money, People and Deals together. The intellectual value that these men brought to their ventures was so great that they built their businesses by using none of their own money; this is the skill of the entrepreneur and the fastest way to wealth.

How do we know when a boy becomes a man in this modern society? Without the rites of passage from our ancestors and the struggles of past generations, many of our young children get stuck in the victim mentality and never fully develop into grown men. Age is just a number and it doesn't reflect your true experience or manhood in this world. Nevertheless, when a boy decides to take ownership of his actions and stops putting the blame on others, this is when he becomes a man...

In this chapter of Hard Times Create Strong Men, titled Attack Of The Man-boys, Stefan digs under the hood of one of the biggest missing ingredients in today's families: ownership. Through the destruction of the family over the last seventy years, mankind has spawned a zombie swarm of man-boys who are unable to look after themselves, let alone raise a family. Learn why to be a self-made man is not about money, but about the unconquerable soul of man.
