WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.720 All right, I'm recording this for those of you that weren't able to attend this particular. 2 00:00:07.720 --> 00:00:13.120 I know we've got so much going on with all the Prosper Leader members and not all of 3 00:00:13.120 --> 00:00:16.880 you were able to be here live, so I'm going to record just a little bit of this so you've 4 00:00:16.880 --> 00:00:20.760 got something to have you be part of it. 5 00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:33.020 So we have broken into rooms and having the Prosper Sister time and the idea is supporting 6 00:00:33.020 --> 00:00:39.340 each other in between calls with prayer, with text, with emails, whatever works, working 7 00:00:39.340 --> 00:00:42.020 together, supporting each other. 8 00:00:42.020 --> 00:00:45.140 So that is a beautiful time. 9 00:00:45.140 --> 00:00:51.860 And the next thing I want to do is start with prayer and then have a little bit of a conversation 10 00:00:51.860 --> 00:00:57.420 together, what God's putting on my heart, and then we'll come back and network and talk 11 00:00:57.420 --> 00:01:00.180 about it together, all right? 12 00:01:00.180 --> 00:01:09.700 So Father, I just give thanks for the very gift of life that you chose to give us another 13 00:01:09.700 --> 00:01:20.860 day of life is the indication that there's more that needs to be done in our life purpose, 14 00:01:20.860 --> 00:01:23.060 in our life destiny. 15 00:01:23.060 --> 00:01:28.140 And I thank you that you are working, always working. 16 00:01:28.140 --> 00:01:32.880 And I am praying for every single Prosper Sister. 17 00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:40.300 So many are going through health challenges, loved ones, health challenges, financial challenges, 18 00:01:40.300 --> 00:01:41.800 so much going on. 19 00:01:41.800 --> 00:01:51.000 And I am asking that you strengthen them with might in their inner woman. 20 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:58.120 You strengthen them with might, Lord, that new power from the inside rises up. 21 00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:05.200 New strength, new inspiration, new revelation, new power, new understanding rises up that 22 00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:14.400 they'll truly know, not just in their mind, but experientially, how high, how deep, how 23 00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:17.280 wide is your love. 24 00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:25.040 And that you are faithful, and that you are our source of all good. 25 00:02:25.040 --> 00:02:31.760 You are our source and that we can trust you and rely on you completely. 26 00:02:31.760 --> 00:02:39.000 And so I'm asking that your perfect peace that passes all understanding, guards our 27 00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:42.000 hearts and mind in Christ Jesus. 28 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:49.240 I ask that you speak to each woman, give her dreams, give her visions, give her fresh hope, 29 00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:52.400 give her fresh healing. 30 00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:57.320 In Jesus name, amen. 31 00:02:57.320 --> 00:03:05.160 So what's really been on my mind and my heart is on a number of levels. 32 00:03:05.160 --> 00:03:11.760 I believe that this Prosper Sisterhood, this Prosper Leader membership, when God spoke 33 00:03:11.760 --> 00:03:19.400 in the initiation of starting it, and he said, gather the women, it was during COVID. 34 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:23.520 It was one of the first of the hard times that we were going to face. 35 00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:26.960 And he said, we are not those who draw back in fear. 36 00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:35.080 And he said, gather the women and be a voice of inspiration and encouragement and hope. 37 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.160 And I believe that this is going to become more and more important. 38 00:03:38.160 --> 00:03:50.280 I think all of you are experiencing in one way or another, that there's a pressure. 39 00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:53.480 And it's showing up in different ways for different people. 40 00:03:53.480 --> 00:03:58.800 It's almost like when you're being squeezed, like wherever the weakness is that God's wanting 41 00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:02.240 to strengthen, that's where it shows up. 42 00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:04.840 So it may be showing up in your body. 43 00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:08.200 It may be showing up in your finances. 44 00:04:08.200 --> 00:04:14.120 It may be showing up in your relationships. 45 00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:20.959 But there is a temptation to try to fight this in our own strength. 46 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:25.640 And we just don't have enough strength for all that's coming. 47 00:04:25.640 --> 00:04:34.240 We have to lean in 100% to be absolutely clear that the Lord is our source physically, financially, 48 00:04:34.640 --> 00:04:37.680 spiritually, just to absolutely lean in. 49 00:04:38.400 --> 00:04:43.680 And so I'm seeing it in different ways. 50 00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:59.840 So if you're experiencing the health challenges, use feelings buried alive to give you 51 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:10.240 a clue of the area that God's working on that you need to resurrender and make him your source. 52 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:18.640 Like nothing in our body is happening random. It's just not that way, right? So I've had three 53 00:05:18.640 --> 00:05:24.080 people this morning that I've already talked to with a lot of back pain and back problems. 54 00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:32.240 That's coming up a lot. And so just to give you an example, almost all of them was in the lower back. 55 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:40.320 Okay. And so since this keeps coming up, I'm just going to bring it up here. Okay. And so 56 00:05:40.320 --> 00:05:48.800 lower back, what is that tied to? Feels unsupported financially, experiencing fear 57 00:05:48.880 --> 00:05:55.760 where money is concerned, wanting to back out of something in a relationship that hurts, 58 00:05:56.400 --> 00:06:04.880 running away from a situation, right? And so, and you know, for others it's hard and it has 59 00:06:04.880 --> 00:06:13.200 to do with relationships, like, but this gives you a clue of what needs to be surrendered 60 00:06:13.200 --> 00:06:23.040 to the Lord, right? So I believe that we're going to be going through an even more extensive 61 00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:29.280 pressing, a pressing in, a more extensive that we're being squeezed. And in that squeezing, 62 00:06:29.280 --> 00:06:38.000 we've got to press in even deeper, right? And so we do this on all three counts. 63 00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:45.680 Like never before do we need to up the ante on our mindset, on our skillset and on our action. 64 00:06:46.320 --> 00:06:56.240 Okay. So on the mindset, it's non-negotiable how you start your morning. 65 00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:06.240 This has to be an absolute non-negotiable. I would like to call it priming yourself for success. 66 00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:15.200 Positioning yourself to have a great day, positioning yourself to win. 67 00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:24.000 Okay. If we just go into our day and we're not clothed and covered with the Holy Spirit, 68 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:31.920 we're not operating in fresh revelation. It's kind of like running out the door to your job 69 00:07:32.320 --> 00:07:38.080 and you grab your briefcase and you run outside and you realize that you're naked, 70 00:07:38.080 --> 00:07:46.800 you forgot to put on clothes or you're barefoot. We're trying to go without our armor. We're 71 00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:52.320 trying to go without the presence of the Holy Spirit. We're trying to go in our own strength 72 00:07:52.320 --> 00:08:01.760 and we're not strong enough. Right. And our brain has a natural bent. If you have not, 73 00:08:01.760 --> 00:08:09.600 scripture says we're transformed by the renewing of our mind, the renewing. Okay. So it says, 74 00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:17.760 do not be conformed. The word conformed is like a mold. Do not be pushed into the world's mold. 75 00:08:17.760 --> 00:08:24.000 Do not be conformed by the world. Do not be crushed into the mold of the world. 76 00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:30.880 But instead of that, so there's one way you can be squeezed and pressed into the mold of the world. 77 00:08:30.880 --> 00:08:37.520 Do not be conformed, but be instead transformed. So it's conformed or transformed. 78 00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:43.039 You're either being conformed, you're being shaped, molded, the pressures of the world. 79 00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:49.280 If your finances are down, you're down. If the world is in recession, you're in recession. 80 00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:56.160 You're being conformed. If the world is stressed, if the world is sick, if the world's in fear, 81 00:08:56.160 --> 00:09:02.320 you're in fear. If the world's in panic, you're in panic. You're being conformed. You're being 82 00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:07.600 shaped. You're allowing yourself to shape to the world or you're being transformed. 83 00:09:08.400 --> 00:09:19.360 You're being transformed. How? By the renewing of your mind. Re means do again, new. Now, 84 00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:27.680 we now know in neuroscience that this is a scientific fact. You've got neural pathways, 85 00:09:27.680 --> 00:09:34.080 you've got neural connections, and they're like roads. And the ones that you've traveled more 86 00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:38.960 often are stronger. They go from being a little path to being a three-lane highway, 87 00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:45.360 a five-lane highway. They keep getting fortified and stronger so that that becomes your automatic 88 00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:54.640 go-to, so that your brain just goes there automatically. And so here's the truth. 89 00:09:56.640 --> 00:09:59.840 God has created, and quantum physics has showed this. 90 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:05.000 God has created this infinitely abundant world 91 00:10:05.160 --> 00:10:10.160 that has infinite possibilities, infinite possibilities. 92 00:10:10.920 --> 00:10:14.440 And I like to picture those 93 00:10:15.920 --> 00:10:20.920 like almost like lottery balls, you know, in a lot of ways. 94 00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:23.680 There's just like all these balls just like spinning. 95 00:10:23.680 --> 00:10:27.100 There's infinite possibilities of how your life can go. 96 00:10:28.100 --> 00:10:31.380 Whatever we focus on and give attention to, 97 00:10:31.380 --> 00:10:35.620 it moves from being in a wave, just potential state, 98 00:10:35.620 --> 00:10:39.480 it moves to being in a physical state. 99 00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:44.480 So by giving our attention, by giving our focus, 100 00:10:45.340 --> 00:10:47.260 we are creating a reality 101 00:10:47.260 --> 00:10:49.620 that becomes our reality that we live. 102 00:10:49.620 --> 00:10:54.020 This is the freedom of choice that God has given us, okay? 103 00:10:54.020 --> 00:10:59.020 And so if we just go by default, 104 00:10:59.180 --> 00:11:00.980 it's gonna go down that highway 105 00:11:00.980 --> 00:11:03.360 that is more natural to your bent. 106 00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:06.580 And so if that is angst, if that is worry, 107 00:11:06.580 --> 00:11:10.700 if that is fear, if that is depression and sadness, 108 00:11:10.700 --> 00:11:15.700 if that is shutting down, whatever it is, 109 00:11:16.540 --> 00:11:18.660 that's kind of the natural bent. 110 00:11:18.660 --> 00:11:23.620 You've got to renew your mind to experience differently, 111 00:11:23.620 --> 00:11:27.780 which means you've got to give yourself every edge possible. 112 00:11:28.820 --> 00:11:31.180 And that's how I look at it. 113 00:11:31.180 --> 00:11:36.180 How can I give myself in this season every possible edge? 114 00:11:36.780 --> 00:11:39.500 So I get up in the morning. 115 00:11:39.500 --> 00:11:43.960 Well, before I even open my eyes in the morning, 116 00:11:44.860 --> 00:11:47.000 I start going through a list of gratitude. 117 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:49.620 I put myself in a state of gratitude. 118 00:11:49.620 --> 00:11:52.060 Thank you, God, that you woke me up this morning. 119 00:11:52.060 --> 00:11:54.700 Thank you that I have this bed and this pillow. 120 00:11:54.700 --> 00:11:57.100 Thank you that I have a warm home. 121 00:11:57.100 --> 00:12:00.820 Thank you that my body is working and my mind is sound. 122 00:12:00.820 --> 00:12:03.300 Thank you, you know, like everything, I don't care. 123 00:12:03.300 --> 00:12:06.820 Thank you for this water as I splash my face with water. 124 00:12:06.820 --> 00:12:09.700 Thank you for like, just like look out the window. 125 00:12:09.700 --> 00:12:10.840 Thank you for the sunshine. 126 00:12:10.840 --> 00:12:12.060 Thank you for the fresh air. 127 00:12:12.060 --> 00:12:13.260 Thank you for the garden. 128 00:12:13.260 --> 00:12:14.500 Thank you for like, 129 00:12:14.500 --> 00:12:17.160 you just get yourself in a state of gratitude. 130 00:12:17.160 --> 00:12:19.080 You're raising your frequency. 131 00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:21.460 This is giving you the edge. 132 00:12:21.900 --> 00:12:24.660 Like scripture's just rich on that about give thanks, 133 00:12:24.660 --> 00:12:27.060 about walking in a place of gratitude 134 00:12:27.060 --> 00:12:31.300 so that we've got to change our state, okay? 135 00:12:31.300 --> 00:12:35.140 And so first thing, I'm gonna share with you 136 00:12:35.140 --> 00:12:39.140 the things that I do to give myself the edge, okay? 137 00:12:39.140 --> 00:12:42.820 So that I can, by God's grace, move my circumstances 138 00:12:42.820 --> 00:12:45.940 and not have my circumstances move me 139 00:12:45.940 --> 00:12:47.920 so that I can say to this mountain, 140 00:12:47.920 --> 00:12:50.660 be thou removed and cast into the sea 141 00:12:50.660 --> 00:12:53.380 instead of looking at the mountain and just keep hitting it 142 00:12:53.380 --> 00:12:57.020 or like the Israelites circling it for 40 years, right? 143 00:12:57.020 --> 00:12:58.500 So I got to give myself the edge. 144 00:12:58.500 --> 00:13:00.500 So first edge is gratitude. 145 00:13:00.500 --> 00:13:02.500 Second edge, I go straight to the kitchen. 146 00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:04.700 I get a big glass of water. 147 00:13:04.700 --> 00:13:07.740 Science has shown if you drink two or three glasses of water 148 00:13:07.740 --> 00:13:09.980 first thing in the morning, you're dehydrated. 149 00:13:09.980 --> 00:13:13.180 The risk of a heart attack or a stroke drops like huge, 150 00:13:13.180 --> 00:13:14.820 70, 80%. 151 00:13:14.820 --> 00:13:17.700 So drinking a lot of water. 152 00:13:17.700 --> 00:13:22.700 And then I have a green drink that I add to the water. 153 00:13:22.860 --> 00:13:24.180 It's very delicious. 154 00:13:24.180 --> 00:13:29.180 And it's got a lot of things to feed and detox the body. 155 00:13:30.100 --> 00:13:32.620 A lot of chlorella and spirulina 156 00:13:32.620 --> 00:13:35.420 and things to like cleanse the body. 157 00:13:36.300 --> 00:13:39.460 So I make myself a big green glass of water 158 00:13:39.460 --> 00:13:42.780 or on alternate days, and I can give you guys brands, 159 00:13:42.780 --> 00:13:45.420 anybody that you're interested in, 160 00:13:45.420 --> 00:13:49.780 or on alternate, I open a can of hydrogen water, okay?

166 00:14:07.100 --> 00:14:09.180 And so I take qualia mind, 167 00:14:09.180 --> 00:14:12.140 which is one of the best kind of nootropics I've found, 168 00:14:12.140 --> 00:14:14.620 stacks of brain, 169 00:14:14.620 --> 00:14:17.380 because I need my brain to be absolutely sharp. 170 00:14:17.380 --> 00:14:19.540 And I don't wanna be forgetting names 171 00:14:19.540 --> 00:14:22.060 and I don't wanna be groggy and I don't wanna be, 172 00:14:22.060 --> 00:14:24.940 I wanna be completely laser focused and have the edge. 173 00:14:24.940 --> 00:14:26.740 So I take the qualia mind. 174 00:14:26.740 --> 00:14:31.020 And so then I walk into back behind here, 175 00:14:31.020 --> 00:14:33.420 this chair you see behind me, 176 00:14:33.420 --> 00:14:35.700 and it's my time with the Lord. 177 00:14:35.700 --> 00:14:39.380 And so I start with meditation, 178 00:14:39.420 --> 00:14:42.660 no less than 10 minutes of meditation. 179 00:14:42.660 --> 00:14:45.180 And then I'm reading the word 180 00:14:45.180 --> 00:14:48.340 and then I'm journaling and I'm reading from a good book. 181 00:14:48.340 --> 00:14:51.900 So I'm having my morning spiritual practice, okay? 182 00:14:51.900 --> 00:14:54.340 So now I've started with gratitude. 183 00:14:54.340 --> 00:14:58.460 I've got my body starting to move in the right direction. 184 00:14:58.460 --> 00:15:00.220 And now I've got my spirit. 185 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.080 that lined up, right. And then I've created daily habits for 186 00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:08.400 success. And I've shared with you that then I've created a 187 00:15:08.400 --> 00:15:14.640 habit for building and growing my business, right. So I've fed 188 00:15:14.640 --> 00:15:18.800 my spirit and my body. And you know, I've mentioned that, you 189 00:15:18.800 --> 00:15:21.720 know, we call that the golden hour, if you're using your 190 00:15:21.720 --> 00:15:25.760 prosper daily planner, it's all laid out for you. So I've had my 191 00:15:25.760 --> 00:15:32.000 golden hour and now out of the overflow, right. And this is 192 00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:37.700 very important, that we start to learn how to live from the 193 00:15:37.700 --> 00:15:42.080 overflow. So whether you're serving clients, or you're 194 00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:45.480 getting online, or you're leading a class, whatever 195 00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:49.760 you're doing, we want to have that be coming from the rivers 196 00:15:49.760 --> 00:15:52.840 of living water that come out of our belly, we want we want out 197 00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:57.520 of the heart flows, the issues of life, we want to be becoming 198 00:15:57.520 --> 00:16:01.600 from a place of overflow and not from a depleted place, not 199 00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:04.200 depleted spiritually, not depleted physically, not 200 00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:08.560 depleted relationally, does that make sense? And so we're coming 201 00:16:08.560 --> 00:16:13.520 from an overflow. And so then I've created the habit to get it 202 00:16:13.520 --> 00:16:16.200 done first thing in the morning that once I go from the golden 203 00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:20.960 hour, I go to the miracle hour, okay. And so now during that 204 00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:28.400 miracle hour, I am now reaching out, okay, if you're in 205 00:16:28.400 --> 00:16:34.360 business, if you don't have a steady flow of leads, then your 206 00:16:34.360 --> 00:16:38.440 business is withering, it's draining, and you're going to 207 00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:42.960 get yourself in a financial hard place, you must have a continual 208 00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:47.280 source of leads. And networking is the best way. Now at the 209 00:16:47.280 --> 00:16:50.200 beginning of the call, I was talking with Antoinette, and she 210 00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:53.360 does really well in live. And so she's doing all these live 211 00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:57.160 networking events. And because she's been showing up and doing 212 00:16:57.160 --> 00:17:03.960 that, then she's getting lots of speaking opportunities. And so 213 00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:06.920 then we talked about how to really harvest those speaking 214 00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:10.319 opportunities to build relationships to get cards to be 215 00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:14.800 following up, okay. So whether you're networking, you know, 216 00:17:14.800 --> 00:17:18.040 live, which I encourage in the season that you're out in your 217 00:17:18.040 --> 00:17:22.119 community, and you're networking worldwide, on the 218 00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:25.720 worldwide web, we have been privileged, we've been 219 00:17:25.720 --> 00:17:29.640 privileged with platforms, the privilege of the platform to be 220 00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:36.240 able to touch lives. Now, I want you to look at that, that at the 221 00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:40.960 other side, these people you're reaching out to are real human 222 00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:45.680 beings. And they are hurting, and they're struggling, and 223 00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:51.040 they're in fear, just like you are. So I want you showing up 224 00:17:51.080 --> 00:17:58.240 very authentically. And with a win, win, win, in mind, you're 225 00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:05.640 not showing up live at the networking or online to get. And 226 00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:10.040 I want you to get this distinction. If you're still in 227 00:18:10.040 --> 00:18:15.440 a level of consciousness, that thinks the answers for your 228 00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:18.840 happiness, for your health, for your financial well being are 229 00:18:18.840 --> 00:18:23.360 outside, and you need to get something, I just need to get 230 00:18:23.360 --> 00:18:28.640 clients, I just need to get money, I just need to get a man, 231 00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:33.320 I just need to get, if you're still looking at life that way, 232 00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:37.600 then you've given your power away. And you've given it 233 00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:42.640 outside of yourself where you have no control. Okay, God hasn't 234 00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:46.200 called us to live from the outside in, he didn't put us in 235 00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:50.800 the world to get it's not that's not scripture. He has taught us 236 00:18:50.800 --> 00:18:55.960 to live from the inside out, out of the heart flow, the issues of 237 00:18:55.960 --> 00:19:00.360 life out of your belly will flow rivers of living water, I have 238 00:19:00.360 --> 00:19:05.920 the Spirit of God in me, I have the mind of Christ in me, right. 239 00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:11.120 And so I'm hitting at him, he's in me. So I must come from 240 00:19:11.120 --> 00:19:16.560 releasing, and I'm activating the flow by giving what's in me. 241 00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:22.320 So I'm coming from this place of how can I serve? How can I 242 00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:26.520 support you, but I'm not coming from my root, okay, some of you 243 00:19:26.520 --> 00:19:32.200 that are over givers, okay. Because you're doing it from a 244 00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:36.760 place of not enoughness, that I hope I'll be liked, I'll hope 245 00:19:36.760 --> 00:19:39.680 I'll be loved, I'll hope I'll get things if I just give and 246 00:19:39.680 --> 00:19:42.720 give and give and give and you deplete yourself, and you get 247 00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:46.000 physically sick and weak. Okay, that's not what I'm talking 248 00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:50.280 about not giving from your root, giving from your fruit. So 249 00:19:50.280 --> 00:19:56.200 that's why I say after the golden hour, I'm pouring out in 250 00:19:56.200 --> 00:20:00.000 the miracle hour. Now, when you 251 00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:06.480 show up. You've got several options. First of all, the first thing you're going to do is post 252 00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:14.400 value. That's your gift. I'm going to share tools, starting on Thursday, some AI tools to make it 253 00:20:14.400 --> 00:20:20.240 even better. I've got an AI tool I'm using for my LinkedIn post that really gives you a leg up. 254 00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:29.680 I'll talk about that. But you're going to really show up. And I've already given you, as far as 255 00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:35.120 what we're doing as far as the posts, the nurture posts and the how-to posts, the inspiration hope 256 00:20:35.120 --> 00:20:40.000 posts, the called action posts. So I'm not going to get into that right here, right now. But that's 257 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:45.840 the first thing is you're releasing your gift that way. Then, secondly, you're giving what you 258 00:20:45.840 --> 00:20:51.520 want to receive. So you're going in and giving likes and you're engaging. And your engagement 259 00:20:51.520 --> 00:20:56.640 needs to be at least six words to catch the algorithm. So the way that the engagement is, 260 00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:03.680 is at, and their name, and then you talk about the post directly. Give them genuine feedback. 261 00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:11.760 Even pull from the post what you like that they said. Add value to it. If you have 262 00:21:11.760 --> 00:21:18.240 some hope or inspiration or how-to, you can throw it in there. And what this is doing is, first of all, 263 00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:24.000 reciprocity. You're giving what you want to receive. And so you're starting a relationship 264 00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:28.320 with that person. They're going to notice you because you're giving to them and you're blessing 265 00:21:28.320 --> 00:21:35.600 them. I would do half of those, your ideal clients, and half of those that would be really good 266 00:21:35.600 --> 00:21:43.120 partners. You know, referral partners or collaboration partners or whatever. So 267 00:21:43.120 --> 00:21:48.320 you're going to kind of have, but that's the second part. So you've given your post, then you've 268 00:21:48.320 --> 00:21:54.400 gone in there, and now you're going to go in and you're going to DM. And you're 269 00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:58.480 going to be adding so that you're constantly increasing your pipeline. So you're 270 00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:06.160 adding 10 to 20 people. And just click connect if we're talking LinkedIn. 271 00:22:06.160 --> 00:22:13.040 Add friends if we're talking Facebook. But on LinkedIn, so just click connect. Don't leave 272 00:22:13.040 --> 00:22:19.200 a note. Just connect. People aren't reading the notes anyway, and it makes it look more desperate. 273 00:22:19.200 --> 00:22:27.360 Just connect. Then 24 hours later, come back and give a very genuine note. And the note 274 00:22:27.360 --> 00:22:33.840 should be starting conversation. So what I'd like you to see as you're doing this is the connection 275 00:22:33.840 --> 00:22:39.680 that it's the same as if you went into a networking. How would you connect in a networking 276 00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:45.440 event, right? Hopefully you would ask a lot of questions, get to know them, listen, share parts 277 00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:52.640 of yourself, and look for ways to connect and collaborate. Then it just becomes a very simple 278 00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:59.360 invitation. Hey, I haven't gotten to know you yet. Are you open to a 15-minute connect call? 279 00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:07.520 And this just lets you connect and get to know each other. And the connect call has the purpose 280 00:23:07.600 --> 00:23:15.760 of how can we collaborate or refer to each other or work together? So one of the things you might 281 00:23:15.760 --> 00:23:20.480 get, because there's so much spamminess out there, is they may say, hey, I'm not looking for a coach. 282 00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:27.120 I get that all the time. I'm not looking to work with someone. And I always go, I get it. But there's 283 00:23:27.120 --> 00:23:32.800 many ways that we can support each other. It might be through referrals. It might be through 284 00:23:32.800 --> 00:23:40.880 collaboration. It might be, OK, Natalie, we'll see you. Oh, wow, it's already 8 o'clock. Dang. 285 00:23:40.880 --> 00:23:49.760 OK, so I want to bring this up to you real quick, is that it's as if you are networking in a live 286 00:23:49.760 --> 00:23:58.880 event, OK? And so this has really opened doors for me, for people that were saying, no, I'm not looking 287 00:23:58.880 --> 00:24:04.400 for a coach. I go, that's great. There's many ways we can connect beyond just coaching. I love creating 288 00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:09.280 referral strategies, collaboration strategies. Let's get to know each other and see what's 289 00:24:09.280 --> 00:24:16.880 possible. And they say yes. And I'm finding phenomenal things. I just had one woman, she's been 290 00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:23.200 a coach for, I don't know, close to 20 years. She's got a very large network. She's got a wonderful 291 00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:31.920 membership site. And so I came from the place of serving. How can I support you? I listened for the 292 00:24:31.920 --> 00:24:36.480 most of the call, asking questions. I said, show me. Show me your membership. Show me what you're doing. 293 00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:42.240 Show me. Let me so I know how to support you and refer. And then in the last few minutes, I 294 00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:47.520 showed her what I had. And I said, what's the most support? What do you need? 295 00:24:47.520 --> 00:24:54.080 How can I best support you? And she said, actually, you've got a lot of materials. If you'd be 296 00:24:54.080 --> 00:24:59.760 willing to share materials in my membership site, especially in the area of lead generation or sales. 297 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:07.200 or marketing. Mine's all in the mindset area. I don't have enough of that. I'd love to have you 298 00:25:08.080 --> 00:25:13.120 bring your materials in. It'll be linked to you and your bio and everything. 299 00:25:13.680 --> 00:25:18.160 So I'm going to be doing that. But I want you to think about that for the moment. 300 00:25:19.120 --> 00:25:25.280 What did that just do? One conversation with a heart to serve just opened up her entire network 301 00:25:25.280 --> 00:25:31.120 to me. I just expanded my network by however many thousands that she's built over 20 years. 302 00:25:31.120 --> 00:25:37.360 Does that make sense? So I want you coming from the attitude not to get something, but to give, 303 00:25:37.360 --> 00:25:46.800 create, win, win, win, win strategies and network online. Okay. So mindset, got myself started, 304 00:25:46.800 --> 00:25:55.200 physically, spiritually, relationally, skillset. I am constantly networking online and offline, 305 00:25:55.760 --> 00:26:04.240 and you're keeping track. Are you making offers every single day? Whether it's in a post, whether 306 00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:10.320 it's in an email, whether it's in a text message, whether it's in your follow-up, are you making 307 00:26:10.320 --> 00:26:15.600 offers every day, right? So that your business is growing. Why do I emphasize that right now? 308 00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:22.320 Because as we're going into this big squeeze, you've got to be spiritually and physically strong. 309 00:26:22.320 --> 00:26:29.520 That's the mindset. As we're going into this squeeze, you've got to be strong in your business 310 00:26:30.080 --> 00:26:36.720 that you've got a lot of leads. You've got a lot of collab and referral and relationships and 311 00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:43.840 support and ways of giving and serving. And you're making offers so that your business is not drying 312 00:26:43.840 --> 00:26:49.600 up. I learned years ago in network marketing, it was like a gas gauge. I learned this like 30 years 313 00:26:49.600 --> 00:26:56.720 ago, right? But it's like, if you are like building and growing, let's see for you, I think it'd be 314 00:26:56.720 --> 00:27:01.760 reversed. Is this full this way? I know that it's mirror. Does this look like full or empty? 315 00:27:01.760 --> 00:27:07.760 Is this full? This is full. Okay. All right. So imagine your tank full. I can't tell with the 316 00:27:07.760 --> 00:27:14.480 mirror image, but imagine your tank full, right? This is that you're in a building mode. You're 317 00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:20.400 active. You're adding new leads, new clients, new sales conversations, new offers, new posts, 318 00:27:21.040 --> 00:27:29.120 new newsletters. Like you're in a building mode, right? And if you slip into maintaining, 319 00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:37.440 which is where many people slip from building to maintaining, you're really close to the next 320 00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:45.280 thing, which is dying and empty. You can't stay here. You're either growing and expanding and 321 00:27:45.280 --> 00:27:51.840 building, or as you slip into maintaining, your business is going to start shrinking. You're going 322 00:27:51.840 --> 00:27:59.200 to lose people. You're going to, right? So this is why it's so important. So mindset, skill set. I'm 323 00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:03.600 talking right now, the skill set of networking. On Thursday, I'm going to talk about the skill set 324 00:28:03.600 --> 00:28:09.760 of shortening the timeframe and the tools with AI, as well as continuing to talk about the shifts 325 00:28:09.760 --> 00:28:18.880 that we have to make. Part two. Okay. So mindset, skill set, action. Okay. Right action, which is 326 00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:25.200 lead generation, follow up, supporting your clients. That's your business. You're generating 327 00:28:25.200 --> 00:28:30.240 new leads. You're following up with existing ones and you're serving the ones that you have, 328 00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:36.880 right? So right action. Does that help? Does that give you a sense of just making sure 329 00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:44.000 what I'm trying to say is fortify yourself in this season, fortify yourself in this season. 330 00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:50.880 It's not a time to draw back in fear. It's not a time to slip into just allowing it to kind of 331 00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:59.280 exist where it is. This is a time to massively grow that you rise in this storm, but you're 332 00:28:59.280 --> 00:29:04.480 doing that from the overflow, not from a place of burnout. Does that help? Does that make sense? 333 00:29:04.480 --> 00:29:12.800 Okay. I'm going to open it up for quick conversation and then we'll go from there.
