And welcome to day two! Here we are, day two in the Prosper 5-7 challenge to
show up and let God show out. So excited! I'll tell you what, I hope you guys
enjoyed day one as much as I enjoyed it. Wow, wow, wow! I felt like a proud mama. I
saw you guys, you're showing up and you're showing up beautifully. I was so
excited and so blessed. So congratulations for those of you that
day one, you did it. You stretched yourself, you got out of your comfort
zone and you showed up. Love the beautiful pictures, love the videos. So I
was super excited because I know this is the beginning of such good things for
you. You know, a brain cell once stretched never returns to its original
size. As you guys cross this comfort zone, you're there, you're on the other
side. That's why this challenge is so exciting. So I really want to
congratulate those of you that stepped up, stepped out, allowed God to show
through. I see you guys joining. Welcome Della! Congratulations on showing up.
Beautiful. Yvonne, congratulations on showing up. So proud of you. Ada,
congratulations. You guys showed out, you did it. And to all of you that did, super
congratulations. Yeah, you know the second thing I really loved was the way
that we're already bonding. I just see it. My favorite thing is just bringing the
prospered family together, the prospered tribe, to love on each other, to
know each other. You know, just so many beautiful women and I'm so excited for
you to know each other. And the fact that you were in there encouraging each other
and celebrating each other. Oh my heart was just bursting, you guys. I was like a
proud mama. I really, I don't know. You guys put in the comments if you had as
much fun yesterday. I know it feels scary and you stretched and you sweat
and yeah I get that. But aside from all of that, wasn't it a fun day? Wasn't it a
fun first day? Put in the comments if it was fun. I saw welcome to those
of you that just joined. Some of you just joined today so I know you got some
catching up to do. No problem. If you take a look at the side, at the tabs,
you'll notice that there is discussion. That's where all the comments are going,
okay. And then there's a place called units and that's where each day I'm
posting your units. So today is day two. It'll be clearly labeled. I have, I'm just
giving you my very best stuff that my coaching clients spend ten and fifteen
thousand dollars for during this pandemic, during everything going on. My
heart is just to see women pivot, see them show up, show out. I'm giving you my
best this week. I mean I always give my best but I'm just, I'm just holding
nothing back. So I put in the units for today. You've already seen there's two
templates in there, okay, for what we're going to be talking about. So make sure
you're familiar with the group. There's the discussion, that's where everybody's
talking. There is the the units, that's where I post the stuff, some of the stuff.
I, the rest is going to go by email. I've been holding off on all the juicy stuff
I really want to send you because very few people have sent me. They haven't
registered. So housekeeping, first things first. Today go to bit.ly, that's B as in
boy, it.ly forward slash prosper with a capital P, challenge with a capital C.
bit.ly forward slash prosper challenge. The P and the C are capitalized.
That's where you register for this group. I've just been allowing people to
come into the group. I've kept some of this public. People can see it right now
because I just want to help as many people as I can. But there will be some
prizes.
At the end, if you have not registered, there won't be prizes, so make sure that you have
registered and be sure you put your phone number in there too.
Those of you that are my clients, I know I already have that, but let's have it all in
one place so I can do a group mailing.
You'll also get, every Sunday, the Prosper Inspirational Newsletter, because that will
really contribute to what we're doing here.
All right, I'm excited for today.
Who is ready and excited for day two, Prosper 5-7 Challenge, to show up and let God show
out?
Five, the number of grace, seven.
We're going the distance.
We're doing it.
Seven days.
All right, let's start with prayer, okay?
Father God, I thank you.
Father God, I thank you for these beautiful, beautiful, beautiful women who have chosen
to encourage themselves, to have courage on the inside, who are willing to do the uncomfortable,
to stretch, to get out of their comfort zone, and they're willing to show up.
Because I know you have put so much in them.
They're rich.
They're pregnant with good stuff to share, and I know there's so many men, women, and
children that need to hear, need to connect, need to receive what they have to share.
So thank you for their courage, their willingness to step up, show up, and allow you to brightly
shine through.
Thank you for every single one of them, for those that are still on the edge and just
feeling that they can't quite do it.
Father, empower them.
We all touch and agree.
We all support you.
If you haven't stepped up yet, we all support you.
Father, help them rise.
Help them to show up so you can show through.
I ask that you bless our time together today in day two.
May the words of my mouth, the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight.
Father, God, just bless, anoint, fill, prosper, heal, work through powerfully each and every
member of the Prosper Five Seven Challenge Group.
Just bless this time.
Holy Spirit, have your full way.
If there's something you want me to say I didn't plan, have your full way.
Holy Spirit, open the spiritual senses, remove distractions, bind all fear, let perfect love
cast out fear.
We celebrate, we worship, we're excited.
I just pray you prosper everything that they put their hands to.
We ask it in Jesus' name, amen.
Amen.
All right, well, welcome.
Those of you that are joining, Earlene, thanks for showing up.
That was so awesome.
You made your video, loved your smile, loved your bright red.
Thanks for showing up.
Pam, good morning.
I am so glad you're choosing to be here.
I am looking forward to seeing.
You're such a beautiful photographer.
You have so much to share.
You're so beautiful.
You have so much love.
We're looking forward.
We're encouraging you.
Show up.
Stretch.
Show up.
This is an amazing group, grace and action.
Cindy, congratulations.
I was just jumping for joy.
You did it.
I know how hard that was for you.
I'm not sure if you're on the line, Ingrid, I mean, congratulations.
She has had her Facebook page with no picture for so long, and wow, she showed up.
Gorgeous smile.
So proud of you.
Congratulations.
Della, you did it.
Loved it.
Loved it that you showed up.
Each one of you, congratulations.
I can't see who all's on the line to congratulate you, but I know I did on the page.
So excited for you, and so congratulations on showing up.
All right, today we are going to talk about clarity breeds confidence.
Clarity breeds confidence.
So showing up, that's the first step.
Showing up is the first step.
You got to be there.
People are not going to come.
I've always said, you know, in sales.
I've mentored sales teams throughout the past three decades.
You know, uh, your ideal client isn't going to come knocking on your door.
Most likely back to your back bedroom, back to your back office, or, you know,
back to your bathroom, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock. Here I am. Okay.
So it all starts with showing up.
We have to do that today.
We're going to talk about showing up with clarity and purpose so that when we do
show up, we get the maximum results, right?
So showing up and being visible online isn't just about posting things.
It's about creating relationships,
relationships.
It's about finding needs, challenges,
desires that you can fill using the gifts God has put in you.
I am an entrepreneur all of my life.
I haven't had a boss for, I don't know, over 30 years.
I've been an entrepreneur all my life. I'm a daughter of entrepreneurs.
My dad was a millionaire before he was 30 so entrepreneurial blood.
So entrepreneurs look at things differently. Okay.
And you that are building a business, a ministry, a business tree,
are entrepreneurs. Okay. And we have a different mindset.
So while other people are looking at circumstances and they're grumbling or
they're complaining or they're stressing or they're preparing or they're doing
what they do, scurrying here and there and here and there. Um,
as an entrepreneur,
the first thing first of all with Christ is a heart of compassion,
a heart of compassion. How can I serve? How can I love?
How can I make a difference? How can I do something?
I want to be part of the solution, not the problem.
So as a Christ follower, as a God lover, my heart is first,
what can I do? Okay. Do I need to deliver? You know, first thing,
I reach out to my elderly neighbors, you know, do you need anything? You know,
took groceries to people, you know,
how can I reach out and be the hands and feet of Christ?
Okay. Secondly, as an entrepreneur,
crisis, chaos, challenge, all that stuff is opportunity.
Okay. I, I always, um, think of the Chinese character,
the Chinese character for crisis, which also means opportunity.
Okay. So how, how is a crisis opportunity?
I'm not a vulture or something terrible. I'm not saying that
you look at a situation and you say,
what gap did this create? What,
what challenge did this pandemic? What's what challenge?
What are people going through right now that they need support, help,
guidance, tools, strategies, whatever.
So lots of people are suddenly forced to work from home and rely on technology.
For many, that's a total challenge.
Those who understand technology can jump in and be part of the solution.
I was fortunate. God had me be online completely coaching, teaching, mentoring,
speaking online since 2014. Okay.
So I can take those tools and I can help.
I can know a challenge going on and I can be part of that.
So people are concerned about health. You can be part of the solution right now.
You know, there's so many are suddenly cooking or shopping or, you know,
there's so many things, right?
There's others of you that are really good at finances. How, what do you do?
Uh, there's others of you in education.
So we look and we say, what is the challenge that was created by this?
What's the gap? And solving a challenge,
making life easier, better, faster. That is business.
People exchange money for value when you can solve a problem or fulfill a desire
or make life better. Okay. So as we show up,
we're creating relationships and our, our ears,
our eyes are open to what are people dealing with and what gifts have,
has God put in me that I can use to serve? Okay.
So some of the things we're going to be looking at that we need to think about,
all right, and I will put these notes afterwards in the,
um, in the units guide. Number one,
keep your mind focused on what you're doing and what you're not doing.
Number one, just because there's names online or memes or whatever, they're people.
If you're taking notes, write down, they are people, human beings, flesh and blood.
They have hearts that hurt.
They have fears.
They have challenges.
They have sicknesses.
They have, you know, relationship stress.
They are people.
When I used to teach in sales and direct selling, I used to say, don't look at everybody as
a prospect, as a way to pay your electricity bill.
So as you're starting to be more public online, be sensitive that all these names that you're
adding, all these likes, all these whatever, they're people, they're human beings, real
human beings with real human hearts.
Number two, etiquette, etiquette, all right?
So here's the way I want you to imagine this to help you be better online because people
are terrible at this.
I'm amazed.
Okay.
I want you to use this metaphor as a way of thinking about this.
I want you to imagine that you are invited to a barbecue, okay?
So you're outside, um, the picnic tables are all set up.
You know, if you're vegan, the vegetables are grilling, you know, if you're not, you're
whatever, your steak, your chicken, whatever's grilling.
And there's lots of people and there's ice chest and it's a wonderful barbecue.
Are you with me?
And you show up, all right?
Imagine scenario number one, somebody shows up, let's not make it you cause I know you'd
never do this.
Let's just make it a random person.
New person shows up at the barbecue and they're all dressed and they walk up and they start
shaking hands with everyone and they say, Hey, I am Paula.
I'm with XYZ insurance.
You know, I would love to have a chance to reevaluate your insurance.
Do you know that I save most people 50% and I'm excited to be here.
Here's my card.
Now you go ahead and put in the comments, how are you feeling right now?
Go ahead.
Tell me what you feel.
Give me a comment.
We're talking about online etiquette.
How do you feel about that?
Because that is what people are doing online.
Yeah.
Jerk.
Cindy wrote.
You don't want to do business with that person.
You don't even want them at your barbecue.
And yet somehow, because yeah, people can be tacky Ada, because there's the online gap.
Earlene says run the other way.
Yes.
So because there's that online gap, people somehow think it's okay to throw up on them.
People, people think it's, it's okay online.
I get people that friend requests me and I accept their friendship and immediately they
start selling me an instant message.
Immediately.
I had someone yesterday, immediately.
Can I do a session with you?
Lady, I don't know what kind of session you do, but you have not earned the right to do
anything with me.
I don't know you just because I friend requested you.
You're not my friend yet.
It's really important online that you have etiquette.
Imagine the other side, the way you and I would do it.
You walk in and you got a big smile and you, you first bring gifts.
You go here.
I made my favorite salad.
You know, I brought a little extra dessert.
I brought a, I brought a bottle of wine, whatever you normally bring to the barbecue and you
meet everybody.
You get to know them and you, you look at, you know what they're doing, what's important
in their life, right?
You build a relationship.
Remember, I want you to think about that barbecue analogy.
Anybody that's part of the prosper tribe, let it never be said that you do that.
Okay?
You build a relationship.
Now the other extreme, we got a lot of people that they just chit chat and chit chat and
they never openly show up or share what they're doing.
Not talking about extremes on either side.
We're talking about being human.
Okay?
So number one, they're people.
Number two, etiquette.
Number three, there is a divine timing to everything.
everything. The sequencing. Years ago I worked with Eric Lotholm. I hired him to come in
and train my sales people and we built a lot of sales videos and things together and Eric
Lotholm has a wonderful thing called the sales mountain and you can google that online if
you're not familiar but it addresses this thing that we're talking about right now which
is timing and that there is a sequence. I'm using my phone to do this. So there is a sequence.
Let me give you a good analogy like the barbecue to help you think about sequence. Let's say
ladies that you got asked out on a date and you're super excited. Let's imagine you're
single and you go to, you got invited to a beautiful restaurant for lunch and you're
really excited. You're dressed up, you go to lunch and you sit down, you order your
salad, you order your drink and the gentleman, this is your first time, first date, get to
know him and the gentleman sits down and he puts down his fork and he takes your hand
and he looks you in the eye and says you are the most beautiful woman in the world. Will
you marry me? Okay, now again I'm giving you some shock ideas, some extremes to get
you to think about it. Having a man take your hand, tell you you're beautiful and ask you
to marry you is a great thing in the proper sequence, right? So you've already gone to
lunch and then you've gone to dinner and then you've dated and then you've met the family
and then you blah blah blah blah blah. There's a natural sequence so at that point if he
asks you to marry, it fits but asking to marry on the first date is out of sequence. A lot
of people are out of sequence. They ask for the sale and they haven't created rapport.
They haven't identified the needs or the desires of the person. They haven't scheduled time
that is agreed upon to present. They haven't given the information and had time you know
for questions and objections. They're asking for the order out of sequence. So number three
is timing. Yes Pam, they're not building the relationship first, okay? Alright, so key
number one, remember they're people. Key number two, remember etiquette. Key number three,
there's a divine timing. There's a sequence, okay? Alright, for today's work, for today's
fun, for today's growth, okay? We're going to take a step back in order to take a really
powerful step forward. In other words, we could just walk forward weekly, W-E-A-K, or
we can take a step back, lay a foundation, and we'll step forward very powerfully, okay?
So we're going to take a step back and we've got two worksheets, two templates. Some of
you, if you're my coaching clients, you're familiar with this but go back and refresh
it. Pull yours out and refresh this. Get it clear in your mind. Make it fresh. You've
a minute. Go back to it. The most important thing you must do before you fully show up
is you have to know two things. You have to know who you are talking to. Now, people often
say things like, well, my product is good for everyone, you know? Grandma can use it,
the kids can use it. I had a product like that, our Delta E for the brain that my company,
my past company manufactures. I still have access to it. Yeah, it's great for the brain
and the grandma needs the brain and the kids need it in school. So yeah, it's good for
a lot of people. But when it comes to showing up online, everybody has a different need
and desire and they have a different vocabulary. So, do you think that a teenager has the
same needs and desires and interests and hangs out in the same social media channel than
somebody that is retired? And the answer is no. Do you think a single mom that has
young children, really juggling, has the same needs and desires as that teenager
and the answer is no. So if you are trying to talk to everybody, everybody
doesn't speak the same language. The metaphor I could give you for this is
imagine you've got French-speaking people and Spanish-speaking people and
Italian-speaking people and Portuguese-speaking people, Korean-speaking
people and so you're showing up and you're speaking English, how many
people are you really reaching? So the work is who are you talking to?
Because when you got that, when you show up, you're gonna connect, you're gonna
build a relationship, it's gonna flow, they're gonna
want what you offer, they're gonna desire it. So number one, who? So I put
already in the units the niche template. It asks you some questions, it gets you
thinking about your niche. You can have more than one niche, I don't know
how you pronounce it, everybody says it differently. You can have more than one
niche but I would start with one. Get really good at one and then you can add
more. Sometimes they're simultaneous. Many of you have a program or a
product that is for teens or for kids but the parents are buying. So when it
comes to creating the materials, it needs to connect with the kids. So your content
should be in the language of the kids but your marketing should be in the
language of the parents. The parents desire something different for the kid.
The kids want to know are you cool, is it fun, is it gonna help me get more girls
or is it gonna help me you know whatever and the the parents want to know is my
kids gonna get better grades, is it gonna keep them off drugs, is it gonna make
them more confident, is it gonna get them into college. Their needs are different.
So if they're the ones paying, that's who you're speaking to. So does that does
that make sense? Are you guys getting that? So you have to know your who. Who is
your niche? Who are you talking to? Number two, we said at the beginning as an
entrepreneur you're looking what problem are you solving? What value are you
adding? What are you offering? Okay you have to know that. What is it? How do you
make their life? How do you reduce friction? How do you make their life
better, faster, stronger, happier? What are you solving? Okay so you have to know the
who and you have to know the what. So I put two templates in there. The niche
template and you're gonna take the material from the niche template and
you're going to make a customer avatar. You're gonna give your avatar a name. You
might want to go so far as to look in a magazine and cut out someone that
represents that avatar. You're gonna have a picture. Here's a fun thing, take that
face, that avatar face, put it on a popsicle stick if you will. Tape it
behind your camera, your phone or your computer or whatever. So when you're
looking at the lens, you're looking at that person. Okay so you're speaking to
that person. This is so powerful. Like I said we're taking a step back to do this
work so you go boldly forward. So here is the challenge for day two. The challenge
for day two. Once you've done the niche, the avatar, you're going to write a note.
Now don't get too bogged down. Okay I like Tony Robbins, can I? Constant and
never-ending improvement. C-A-N-I. Constant never-ending improvement. Do it
first. Do it messy. Do it ugly. You can keep going back and getting better and
better and better and better but do it. Do it. Okay do it enough for this
exercise that you can do exercise number two, day two challenge. Okay and day two
challenge is you're either going to write a note, an email, a text or better
yet, best yet, if you really want to show up and practice showing up and let us
give you feedback and support and encouragement is record a video and the
video you're addressing, you're talking to, you're who. So even give them a
name and take 30 seconds, take a minute and talk to them. Look straight in the
thumbs up.
camera. Like I said, if you need to put the picture right by the little lens,
talk to that picture. Okay, let them know whatever it is on your heart. Let them
know you're praying for them. Let them know if you are. Let them know. I mean
speak like a friend. I'm here for you or together. Here's what we're gonna do or
I'm so excited for you. So the purpose of this exercise is not only getting you
practice speaking to a camera and showing up because that's what this is.
This is the show up challenge, right? The 5-7 challenge to show up and let God
out. This is your chance to show up. Let God show out but we're gonna get you in
the habit of powerful speaking, powerful connecting by talking to one person. That
one person represents your niche. So lots of people are. So I haven't prepared this.
I'm just doing it off the cuff. Okay, but let's just say I know you guys on this
challenge are my niche. So let's just say I call you Sandy. I don't think I have
any Sandys in here. Okay, so if I say, hey Sandy, welcome so much to this group. I
want you to know before you even got here I was praying for you because I
know what it is like to have a passion in your heart. You so desire to make
a difference. You so want to be used by God. You so want God to shine through you
and I know you desire to build a business that really serves people and
that you you prosper to. That your impact grows, your faith grows, your
income grows. You're at the right challenge because this challenge is
about helping you show up. This is the 5-7 challenge. Five, it's about grace.
We're not, we're gonna drop the perfectionism and I know that you have
studied with perfect, you have been frustrated by perfectionism. It's held
you back. You never thought it was quite good enough but in this group we're
gonna drop that. Okay, the perfectionism we're gonna drop it. We're gonna, we're
gonna do it clumsily. We're gonna do it ugly. We're gonna do it together and I'm
here with you and the whole group is here with you and it's encouraged. We are
encouraging you and you're going to show up because as you show up you're gonna
get better and better and better at it. You're gonna break through barriers,
crossover, comfort lines, you know, and God's gonna shine through you and you
have something so valuable to share. We're gonna help you do that in this
group. Alright, how many of you, I was looking right at the camera, how many of
you felt like I was talking straight at you? How many of you just related, like
you just felt like I was talking to you?
Put it in the, put it in the chat if you felt I was really talking to you. I'm
trying to model for you what we're gonna do. Okay, great. Lots of hearts going up.
Thank you for the love. Alright, so Ada says yes and Yvonne says me and Earlene
says I did. Cindy says yes exclamation point. Pam, haha, me exclamation point.
Della, yes. Alright, so do you see why this exercise is so powerful? Because most
people just get up there and they they just throw up, right? And so if I said to
you, if I showed up and I said hey guys I'm here, I just want you to know my new
offer. I have got oranges on sale and I'm so excited and so be sure to hit like, be
sure to share and catch the sale, alright? Because it's only one day, a limited
supply, okay? There's limited space so make sure get your oranges, get them
today. Alright, do you feel the difference? Kimberly says me. So do you, did you feel
the difference there? So here at the Prosper Tribe and leaving this challenge
you're gonna be recognizing that they're people, you're gonna recognize etiquette,
you're gonna recognize timing and you're gonna know you're who and you're what
and you're gonna speak to your who. You're gonna speak and you're gonna
connect from your heart to your personality.
Okay, so that is your assignment.
You're going to make a video.
You're going to talk to him.
It can be imaginary right now.
It doesn't matter.
It's practice.
This is practice.
This is grace, okay?
And then secondly, and you guys are already doing it so amazingly because we're going
to have exercises in this outside of the group, okay, is continue building the relationship

Continue to put encouraging words.
Encourage them to keep on going.
