Yeah, let's do it.
Heavenly Father, Lord God, it's just so good to approach your throne today, Lord.
We're so grateful for you.
Thank you for being so faithful, Lord.
Thank you that you are a sovereign God.
Thank you for authorizing us, Lord, to overcome the power of the enemy today.
Thank you that we get to be held and protected in your loving arms today, Lord.
We're so grateful.
Thank you for filling us afresh and depositing in us, Lord, everything we need to be your
hands and feet, to expand your kingdom, to glorify your name, Lord, so we can serve others
and do our best to honor you in the process.
Thank you for partnering with us, Lord.
Thank you for your presence and blessing us by just walking life with us.
Your word says when we commit to you whatever we do, that you will establish our plans.
So God, we commit this call to you.
We dedicate our businesses to you, Lord.
We commit this time to you today.
May you establish our plans.
May your favor rest on us, Lord, as you establish the work of our hands also, God.
We love you and give you praise today in Jesus' name.
Amen.
Awesome.
All right.
Welcome, everybody.
So I was sharing with Rebecca a story, and she asked me if I would share it with you
guys.
And so I prayed about that on if I'm supposed to, and I got a yes.
So I realized something really about a week ago in that, for whatever reason, that it
is, we don't talk about this a whole lot, I don't think, but I've been under pretty
constant spiritual attack.
And I don't mean, you know, just from like, you know, the enemy using other people or
anything like that, but just direct demons, you know, entities, mainly entities.
And so what I've realized is this last week is they just can't get access to me the way
they used to, but it doesn't stop their attempts.
And so what I noticed is that my kids started being under massive attack.
So Sabrina having nightmares every night, Graham just waking up screaming.
And it was just very frustrating, because I mean, I pray stuff off them all the time,
I pray for them all the time, and I'm like, man, is there, you know, I mean, me, you know,
I'll feel it.
I feel a cord or entity in my foot.
I pray it off.
It's fine.
It's just more annoying, you know, but for them, you know, I'm not, I'm not, you know,
anyway.
And so yesterday, I had a meeting with a guy that I meet with weekly.
And he's like, well, why don't you go to God and just ask him to have your family, you
know, off off limits, right?
Hey, can we make them off limits?
And so, you know, you don't go to God and say, hey, my family's off limits, bub, you
know, you don't you don't do that.
There's a lot.
And I say that jokingly, but I was like, there's a lot of Christians that that kind of say
that kind of thing.
I'm not here to order him around.
You know, he's the creator of the heavens and the earth, man.
And so I go and I asked and I said, hey, God, is it possible?
Can I ask for my family to be off limits?
Yes.
Okay.
And so, you know, just like our father, right, your will on earth as it is in heaven.
And so I pray and I'm like, okay, Father, well, thank you.
Thank you for taking my family off limits.
Thank you for, you know, keeping them away from the enemy, etc.
And so I, I had decided that day that I was just going to probably sleep with Graham every
night because he had so many bad attacks where he's just screaming and, you know, if I can
pray that stuff off of him in the moment.
And so I'd already decided I'm going to sleep with him anyway.
And so I slept with him and nothing.
I mean, he didn't have any kind of outbreaks.
He didn't have any kind of issues.
He didn't toss and turn like crazy.
And in fact, I come back from the gym and I was shocked.
He was on the couch.
He's always the guy that sleeps in as long.
as he possibly can and he was just sitting there on the couch and he was chipper he was in a good
mood he's never in a good mood in the morning and um and so just a totally different experience
and so um you know if now now i'm i'm not off limits so i'm i still get attacked all the time
but it's not it's it's an annoyance it's not a big deal it really isn't i feel a pain in my
ribs or my elbows or my on my feet or whatever and i get rid of it it's not it's not a big deal
um but for them to be protected is a very big deal so that might be something if you're noticing
uh spiritual stuff going on with your family maybe you pray that maybe you ask them um i'm very
grateful for that that was a very very cool thing that happened yesterday and so thought i would
share thought i would share all right um so other than that uh thank you for getting the memo um
i was asked to come in to uh graham cook and dion training here at like i think two or something and
so i was looking at uh you know and so thank you for getting the memo and getting on early
um appreciate that sorry we don't like making changes to this you know we got two times a month
the guys so we don't like making changes um thank you for your flexibility all right so
where are we starting who can i help who can i help with all right okay yeah
all right okay man what is up hold on okay brenna how are you i am doing really well actually i'm
so happy you moved the time um it worked out perfectly for me um so i am i've been working
on something in the past couple years to get myself into higher level contracts um like
corporate contracts and i it's something that like i found out about two years ago i've been
kind of on this path but nothing has ever really moved forward um but recently i was on a call and
the lord nudged me to share about the the certain type of certification that allows us to do
corporate contracts so i shared that and um i was in prayer with one of my team members and i was
just you know we always pray over each other each week just certain different things and i was just
she i asked if she would pray over me over this of being able to move it of being able to discuss
it from a postured position of having success within it and the lord he showed me he gave me
a time and a date of a place that i needed to go so i did that and i was able to set up a meeting
with him at 1 p.m um today so i'm like perfect um wow he moved it for you apparently he'll do that
he's so good and i just you know the it's like restaurants and bars but it's with um like you
with this bigger client you know there's talking about potential selling multiple of our units
there and i just i'm i really i'm just trying to come at this from a very postured um and position
myself well so that i can just speak on it very precisely um and correctly so do you have any tips
for that um and i did create like a one-liner you know specifically for restaurants um can i
can i read that to you sure yeah so it says i help food operations elevate their water elevate
their dining experience and produce in-house chemical solution by providing a water ionizer
that produces seven different types of waters to start out before i share the differences of the
water and how it could be beneficial to their restaurant and bar operations so so i'll give you
my my initial kind of take and then take it to prayer right um and so um one i would
i would pray on lord how would you like me to prepare for this meeting i know you only got a
bit of time here um there are there are some times where he has me create some bullets
and and you know have like a plan and then there are also
times where he's like, Nope. And I'm like, really, nothing,
you're not gonna give me anything? Nope. All right. And I
just, you know, go there. Rebecca, do you remember the
story with Dion? In the boardroom? Which one? So I'll
tell you, so Dion's, you know, a partner of mine, and we have him
come into the faith and finance mastermind. And he was doing a
huge presentation for this for this company. And, you know, it
was a big deal, really big, massive deal. And and he was,
you know, he was, you know, nervous. And, and so, you know,
he gets there, he's in the boardroom with all these high
powered individuals and everything. And, and so, you
know, he, you know, gets his PowerPoint or whatever the
keynote, maybe, I don't know, he gets his presentation up on the
slides, and everyone's sitting there. And the Lord tells him,
don't say anything. He's like, like, they're like, go ahead,
Dion, don't say anything. And he's like, and so after like an
awkward amount of time, the one executive says something to the
other executive, and they start discussing this project. And it
goes on and on and on for like 20 minutes. And they come to a
better conclusion than he had in his presentation. And he didn't
say anything. And so at the end of 20 minutes, they're like,
Okay, well, I guess we should see your presentation. He said,
Actually, you know, what you guys came up with was what I was
going to present. And so, you know, let's, let's do it. And so
that's, that's when you, when you experience something like
that. That's when it's really, you really get it, that he can
do anything. You know, that's when you just get it. And, and
so I just love that story from, you know, from Dion. And so I
would, I would pray, I would ask, because and there's,
there's been times where I'm like, man, this is like a
tricky speech, like, you know, you don't want me to prepare?
No. Okay. And so I was, so that would be a first, you know,
Lord, you know, do you want me to prepare for this? If so,
what's my outline? What am I to say? And I would, I would ask
that question. So my brain kind of perked up when you said
seven different types of water. So if I would pray on this,
maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm wrong. But I would, if so, I've
signed up restaurants into things. I've signed up
restaurants. So my very first network marketing company I was
ever part of, it was a juice. It was like a great kind of juice.
And, and I signed up a bunch of nightclubs, I signed up a bunch
of restaurants. And my pitch to the owners was, hey, we have a
really big team here locally, you start serving this juice,
we're going to come in. And it's really simple. All you do, you
pour it, you smack some vodka in there, bada bing. And and so
that was very simple pitch very quick. And the one restaurant
was going through $1,000 a week of this stuff. Every week, just
48 bottles. And that was just one. And then we had nightclub
serving, serving the, you know, all kinds of different drinks.
And, and so when I when I hear that seven types of water, if
I'm a restaurant owner, and again, pray on this, if I'm a
restaurant owner, I'm thinking, I mean, my bartender, my waiter
and waitresses, they're already busy. Now they're gonna have to
learn seven different types of water, they're gonna have to
learn when to pour what for what kind of customer? How do I
update the menu to say that, like, that just seems crazy. And
and so I would pray around that, because that that was the only,
you know, kind of source. And I would also add notice what I
said to the restaurant, I said, we have a big local team, you
start serving this, we're going to come here all the time. And
we did, we came there all the time. And and so you know, I in
I increased his business by bringing more people there. And,
and so that I would, you know, if you're able to make that kind
of, of claim, because and I would compare it to what RFK is
doing. So because of what RFK is doing, all of a sudden, steak
and shake uses beef tallow. I guarantee you, there are people
that now go to steak and shake that didn't before. They used to
use vegetable
well, now they use beef tallow, right?
Beef tallow is a lot more healthy.
And so I would say that, hey,
when people learn that you're using
the highest quality living water
that exists on planet earth
from a Japanese company, 50 years old,
like people are gonna come here
specifically for this water.
Like I wanna use it as a pitch, you know, too.
But I would pray on all this,
but I want it to be, boy, this is really simple
to just snap right into your existing operation,
it's gonna boost sales and make you more money,
it's gonna be unique in the marketplace,
it'll attract new people,
that's gonna be my pitch.
Okay.
That's all good, thank you.
Yeah, does that help?
Yeah, that's very helpful.
Yeah, we're rooting for you.
Thanks, very excited.
Okay, that was pretty much all I have.
I'm working on some other things, but I will-
Well, focus on this.
I mean, if you got it in a couple hours, like, you know-
I'm gonna table it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Cool, awesome.
Amber.
Hey, hey.
Hey.
So I've been just having a really hard time
still hearing the Lord,
and I just wanted to see if there's anything
that you can continue to pray over
to see if there's anything attaching.
Okay.
Okay, so I got two steps, two things for you.
So one is walking you through a prayer,
and this is a very comprehensive prayer.
I'm positive it contains some things you've said before,
but it's a unique combination.
And so I got to walk you through this
and then pray for you while you say it out loud
and then give you a bit of homework.
How's that?
Yeah.
So I posted it in the comments.
I'll pray for you while, whenever you're ready,
say it out loud slowly.
I'll pray for you while you say it,
and then I'll give you the homework.
How's that?
All good.
All right.
God, thank you for helping me surrender to you.
Thank you for helping me surrender to you.
I thank you for accepting me as your child.
I just turn my ways into know your ways.
I choose Jesus Christ to be my Lord and Savior.
I know he died for our sins and you resurrected him
so we can come, so we could walk in his power.
God, I also thank you for filling,
for the filling of the Holy Spirit
to help me, guide me, and comfort me.
Amen, amen, amen.
Yes, yes, yes.
You feel that?
Yeah.
And so, so the homework is, you know,
first it's, we have to kind of,
I don't wanna say trick ourselves, but we have to,
you know, Tozer said,
those who say they never hear from God
will discredit every time he talks to them.
And, you know, God, God will speak to us at the level
we can hear, right?
And so, and so a great question,
hold on a second, I just had doorbell ring.
I don't know.
It'll be fine.
So a great question I like to give people is,
is going to prayer in a surrendered state,
that's on your knees, leaning against the couch,
leaning against the bed, taking your time, no rush,
not on the clock, and just ask, Lord, how do you see me?
And the reason I like that question so much is we,
if we ask that, typically we'd say,
well, I need to work harder,
I shouldn't have eaten those donuts,
or, you know, we would find places that are wrong with us.
And that's not the answer you're going to get.
You're going to get very different answers
that are positive and edifying and how he sees you.
And so then you'll have experienced,
oh, he just brought up a thought.
Oh, that was my own voice.
It was just words I wouldn't have used.
So, you know, his voice, you know, sometimes he'll, he'll bring,
it'll bring up a memory and you're like, man, I haven't thought about that in a
long time, you know, so sometimes he'll bring up a memory or a thought or you'll
get a word, it's hard to explain, but you'll get a word, but it has like a
paragraph of meaning in it.
It's strange, but you know, and so it's a, I think that's the best question
to kind of kick that process off.
Because, you know, he, you know, his word says, you know, when you like wisdom,
ask will be given to you liberally without reproach.
And so I believe it.
And so I believe you're gonna, you know, you're going to hear something.
So I've I really dislike doing social media.
It's not one of my favorite things.
So I keep posting, trying to post more on, you know, my anointing of finding
balance or helping families find balance that have special special needs children.
And a couple of weeks ago, I like had the thought in bed, like waking up of like
posting or doing an interview with a farmer that's connected to my business.
And then I did that and it was really good, but now I'm hearing him say, I'm not
saying I'm hearing him say, I have this thought and I'm wondering if it's him.
Um, there's this billboard that is up around my area and it
talks a lot about, um, glyphosate.
And glyphosate.
So it's bringing in how good it is.
And this is totally against like what our company does, you know?
So I know he set me up, not setting me up.
He's wanting me to do a hard work and this is really hard for me to talk about
because, you know, my community, my family, we all grown up commercial, commercial
farming.
So they've used glyphosate, you know, we've everything.
So to bring it up into this light, I feel like I'm going to have so much pushback
and not knowing how to say it to be the right way.
This is very typical.
So I'm not sure.
Let me give you this thing that you don't believe you can do so I can show what I
can do.
That's a very typical thing.
You know, like if you study the, um, the story of Gideon, I forget his dad's name,
but it's like, uh, Joshua or Jehoshaphat or something, but it's a derivation of
Asher off so that the temples that Gideon destroys in the night, his dad most
likely is the one that set him up.
And then the villagers want to kill him.
And and that's actually how he brings his dad to the Lord.
Like what, who would have predicted that?
Right.
And, and so it's a really intriguing, um, story.
And, and so, um, uh, that would not surprise me at all.
If, um, he's, he's putting you, you know, this is the David and Goliath story.
You know, this is, this is the deal, you know, um, is giving you an insurmountable,
very difficult thing, um, for you to flex.
And that becomes, you know, that becomes how you become famous.
That Goliath is how David became famous.
He was a, he went from shepherd boy to leader of the armies to King.
And, and so, um, first I think to help equip you, let me ask if I'm
supposed to do anything here.
Nope.
I didn't think so.
Um, so we could, we could argue that David wasn't scared of Goliath at all
because Samuel had given him the promise.
So he had insurance.
He had life insurance.
If God has said, I'm going to be King, then clearly this guy can't kill me.
I could go in there with a butter knife.
I could go in them and just drop elbows on them.
And the guy can't kill me.
If God has said, I'm going to be, that's how much, you know, you know, David
was a man after God's own heart.
And, and so David, uh, believed the word of the Lord and believed that Samuel,
the prophet said he was going to be King.
So he could have gone in there with a rubber band.
You see, you see what I'm saying?
And so the reason I'm bringing that up is I think that it
might be powerful for you.
You know, God.
God has given me different promises,
some that are me specific, some are project specific.
And so anything he asked me to do,
he's told me the promises.
So with the promise in mind,
it's really not that big of a deal
to go do what he's asking me to do.
And so I would get in and say,
Lord, what is your vision for me?
What is your promise for me?
Where do you see my career?
Who will I be helping?
What will this look like?
And so, and I will tell you,
I did recently realize that I was,
that because of the promises he's given me,
I was struggling with worth,
with feeling worthy of that calling.
And so I know the Bible hack.
Father, thank you for helping me feel worthy
of your calling.
Father, thank you for helping me be worthy,
thank you for helping me feel worthy of your promises,
because the promises were so big,
they're so beyond, like, I can't even comprehend
how is that going to happen?
I have no idea.
It'd be like telling a shepherd kid
that he's gonna be king.
And so I would pray into that,
and I would pray into, Lord, how do you see my future?
What does that look like?
Who am I gonna help?
Because maybe you're gonna save
tens of millions of lives.
I don't know.
Maybe you're gonna change an entire industry.
Maybe you're called to be that complete game changer.
Maybe you're called to be the Esther of this generation,
and you're saving millions of people from extinction
by consuming that terrible chemical.
I don't know, but he does.
And so I would ask that question,
but it's very, very much like God.
That sounds very much like you're being called to do that,
but I would ask for that promise first.
You know, what does that look like?
You know, it's just like, also back to Gideon, right?
You know, he says, hey, Gideon,
I want you to take a couple of your buds
and go down and beat that army of 300,000 people.
And he's like, okay, this sounds crazy.
Lord, if this is you,
then I wanna see this fleece wet and the grass dry,
and then vice versa.
And then as they're creeping toward the 300,000 army,
right, they hear him saying
all the nightmares they've been having.
And the Lord had been giving them, you know,
allowing them to have nightmares about Gideon
and this unstoppable army they had,
and they were already beaten before he even went down there.
And he was like, oh, that's what he did, wow.
And so I would get into what is your promise around this?
Okay, yeah.
Sounds good.
Yeah.
Giddy up, that means it's gonna be big.
Very good, we're rooting for you.
Awesome.
Lisa, what's happening?
Hey, what's up?
What's up?
And Ms. Amber, this is, can you hear me?
Yeah, there we go.
You're muted.
This is for Amber.
Ms. Amber, this is your breakthrough, girl.
God has got you right here in the palm of his hand,
and you claim victory in Jesus' name.
I'm like, ooh, I mean, it was flowing over here
when you guys were talking, I'm like, ooh, she's got this.
So just know that, period.
And run, Forrest, run.
I like it, I like it, I agree.
Yes, yes, and it's all about lifting each other up.
So yeah, do this.
With me, I have so much energy.
Let's just say I think the, I'm back, hold on.
A little too, we need to go downshift.
With that, oh, and I was trying to do something.
I like to record when you and I talk so I can.
Sure.
With my high energy being back,
I tend to take on more than I can do.
I've got, here's what I've got going on.
I've got the decluttering business, which is great,
and thank you for all your input.
Yeah.
For some reason, I've got coaching and speaking
and all these things flowing into my head,
but God did give me peace about network marketing.
I've got both the oils,
and I know you should stick with one.
But God is telling me focus on the oils
because I love holistic lifestyle.
I just, I live on it.
I don't even have a.
doctor is they call. Yeah. And then, like, you have guided us
with the Brilliant app to do the, you know, and I listen to
it all the time and take your notes and post it and just talk
about it here and there. So that won't be my primary, but God is
it's like he's given me this vision to, to teach classes, you
know, through me virtually on zoom and get connected with. And
I guess this is something I've always wanted is is with
businesses around whether they're holistic, retail shops
and or possibly wellness centers where people naturally help
because I talked to some people, some people like it, but people
are curious. And what I've, my understanding is a lot of people
won't touch the oils because they don't know what to do with
them. Yeah. And that's, it's all about education. So my thought
is, is I can teach classes, post them on next door, and other
platforms and promote it a bit and just start educating people
with what I'm doing. And yeah, me, me personally, I've been
doing a lot of just off the hip, just get on my phone,
record everything I do. And I just post it to tick tock, post
it Facebook. And until I know I need more structure, trust me, I
need structure. Because I tend to fly by the seat of my pants.
Which is,
yeah, I mean, more is is better than less, you know, like
someone, you know, several times I've seen people ask Gary
Vaynerchuk, you know, quality versus quantity, he doesn't even
skip a beat quantity, like you just buy. And, you know, so
posting more, more is a very big deal. And and so, as you as you
can get more, you know, congruent, right, then post
more and congruent is obviously going to be better. Yeah.
Cool. My, my question to you is, because I keep having all
these things flood into my brain, and all these things to
do, how do I reel it in to get focused on, I guess, what's a
priority? What what is? And yes, I'm going to pray I was. I'm not
an auditory learner. So that's why I record to go back, listen
to it and write it down. But what to focus on?
I mean, I think, I think, you know, when you have multiple,
especially when you have multiple things, like, and me
too, you know, I get all kinds of, you know, things, you know.
So especially when you have multiple options on the table,
and you have multiple interests, you want you want to figure out,
okay, what's the mantle? Like, what's, what's the, what's the
North Star? You know, and kind of think of the example here.
Try not to use my own. Okay. Because there are things that
can have associations that that are different, right? There are
things that
one second. Okay, he's only let me have one example, which is
mine. So he's giving me these humongous promises that are
bigger, that are. Let's see, I can probably calculate it
exactly. But is let's see. That is 200x bigger than I've ever
done, or even come close to. And that's around the brilliant app.
And so he gives me this humongous promise. And he did it
three times where he gave me this very specific number. And,
and so, okay, got it. I understand this project. That's,
that's your promise. That's what you're saying. Got it. Well,
what about these over here? And so it actually wasn't until
yesterday that he informed me of where these fit in. One, I was
to let go. So I'm like, All right, Lord, you want me to do
that today? Yes. Okay. Let it go.
And this one is you're to use this to lead with goodness
and this is going to lead people over here.
And I'm like, okay, got it.
Cause over here, I was very confused.
I'm like, okay, what am I doing for this thing over here?
Now he's told me this is to be front facing
but it's gonna lead a lot of people over to here.
And I'm like, okay, so now it's clear.
And so I, cause what I don't think would be the case
is, hey, I want you to build, you know,
all these different, you know, little things.
I think he wants you like a, what is Isaiah 41?
I think like a threshing, what does he call it?
A threshing something.
Rebecca, you might know it.
What is it?
I'll make you a thresh, not a threshold,
but a basically like a bulldozer, right?
Like you're an arrow shooting through the marketplace
and, you know, it's, you know, just this,
this we're not looking for,
just this pointed attack, right?
This is my anointing and my walk
and some of these things support it.
Threshing sledge, that's exactly what I was looking for,
a threshing sledge, right?
So this is a threshing sledge to just separate
in the marketplace and rise, you know, to the very top.
And so, you know, cause we're called
to be the city on the hill that can't be hidden,
the light of the world.
And so I don't think we're to have, you know,
these little things here and there,
we're to, you know, be a force
to be reckoned with in something.
And so I would want to find out what is that,
what is that thing?
And, you know, and then I can pray
and make sense around all of these other things.
Like, I'll give you an example.
My first, when I first ran,
so my company name is still Forever Wealth Club
and Forever Wealth Club was actually a monthly meeting
that I ran, you know, here I had them in Pittsburgh,
Morgantown, West Virginia, Charlotte County,
Lee County, Collier County.
And, you know, so these are all monthly meetings
and I didn't run all of them,
but what I did is I, there would always be goodness.
There'd always be a training, you know,
to attract people to that training,
whether sales, marketing, real estate,
something like that.
But around the room, I had different income streams.
I had a couple of different, you know, back then,
I had a couple of different, you know,
network marketing opportunities,
a couple of different affiliate things.
I didn't run any of the tables,
but all of those tables I benefited from.
You see what I mean?
And so I share that because, you know,
maybe that's part of your vision
of you running something that has different associations.
It has the clutter-free table.
It has the oils table.
It's got the brilliant table, whatever, you know?
And so, but there's usually gonna be a main point.
There's usually gonna be a main,
like this is where I'm focused
and these things are complimentary in some way.
This is, and so it's a difference between going,
if you look at like Apple, right?
So Apple, they went vertical, not horizontal, right?
So they, so horizontal is I have all these different things
that aren't really that associated.
Vertical is I have all these things and they are associated.
So, you know, like back then I had ownership
in a title company.
I had a mortgage license.
I had a lot of real estate deals.
So I had, you know, just a lot of things
that were, you know, congruent.
And even the network marketing piece,
not that it had to do with real estate,
but it led me to people that I got to talk to
about real estate.
And so even that had a place in there.
So it was very vertical.
And I think when we're,
when we have this vertical integration,
it's gonna work better than I have this thing over here.
It's about mushrooms.
It has nothing to do with this over here.
And this is about paper airplanes.
You know, like, so vertical, not horizontal.
Does that make sense?
Yeah, it's completely.
And seeing how they align
and which ones do and don't align.
Yeah.
So yeah, I'll do some deep digging and soul searching.
in there. Thank you. Yep, yep, yep, yep. Awesome. We're in for you. Yay. Donnie,
you're getting a double dose with the 1K challenge and this. Awesome.
So I have to quickly mention I was, I noticed the lion behind Lisa and you referenced Isaiah 41
um and my shirt is both lion and scripture from Isaiah 41. So I was just kind of amazed. Nice,
nice. This is my first sales and marketing mentorship. Oh cool, nice. And so one of the
things that's in my, on my mind is, so we talked yesterday on the 1K challenge and
um bold, brave, and daring. And since we've, since we had that discussion and being in prayer,
um when I get into situations where my initial reaction would be to hesitate and,
and not do the things I'm getting,
um being, my father sees me as bold, brave, and daring, why am I being anything less?
Or why are you being anything less rather? Yeah. And so all that's leading to like, that's, so that's,
yeah, so I'm, I'm really heavily. Let me, let me help, help with that. Um, so,
a couple things, three, three things. So one, we do want, we do want to stay in step with the spirit,
right? So, um, it's, you know, I still check in, you know, I'm, I'm, mine is bold, loving,
and authentic, right? So I still got bold, got bold, um, but I'm still, I'm still staying in
step with the spirit. Lord, are we doing this? Lord, do you want me to do this? And, and so
this was like, um, I think, I think it was Lynn in the 1K challenge today. She said how,
I think it was her, and she was saying, um, you know, sometimes I don't feel like doing something.
Um, I don't, we're not to be ruled by our emotions. You know, 1 Corinthians 9, 27 says,
take captive, or no, I'm sorry. 1 Corinthians 9, 27 says, I tame the body, make it my slave.
And emotions are the language of the body. I take that as taming your emotions and,
and doing the things that you may not want to do, whether you want to do them or not.
But if you're staying in step with the spirit, all I need to know is his permission. And so if
he's given me the green light to do something, me wanting to do it, not wanting to do it,
doesn't matter, no longer matters. And, you know, so his will is above my desires. And I,
and I purposely pray that. And, and so now that being said, I have absolutely been duped,
absolutely been duped to where I thought I was supposed to do something, but I wasn't.
And he covered that. So even when, you know, he's, he's built in room for our, uh,
dumbness. And, uh, and so like, uh, when we missed the mark, he's, he's built that in,
he's not surprised. He's not surprised when we, we, we stumble at something or we make a wrong
choice. And we think that we heard from him and maybe we didn't. Um, and so you just don't have
to fear, right. And that's most, one of the most common verses is do not fear. Right. And so there's
that number two, one, you know, one way to use now that you know, you're, um, bold, brave,
and daring is, you know, to declare it, you know, I'm a bold, loving, authentic man of God.
Like I say that every morning I put my hand on my chest. I'm a bold, loving, authentic man of God.
That's who I am. And, and so like, you know, you affirm that. So you speak to yourself more than
you listen to yourself. And so, you know, so stay in that, you know, I'm bold, loving or bold,
brave, and daring. Um, I think that was all three points, I think. Um,
so yeah. And, and what, what, what I guarantee you will happen, guarantee you this,
he's going to, he's going to ask you to do things that only a bold, brave, daring person would do.
And he's, it's not a test. He already knows what you're going to do. Right. But what will happen
is when you do those things, you'll look back and it will reaffirm your identity
and you'll see that you're bold.
say, man, I did that. You know, like, I still remember when I
was, you know, nudged to read Isaiah 53 and do an altar call
at a business meeting of 500 people. I was freaking
terrified. I was I was I was like, Lord, this can't be right,
man. This is, you know, and then I'm like, well, the devil had me
do this. Definitely not. You know, like, that wouldn't make
And so I mean, I was, I'd love to see a recording of that. I
don't know if it exists or not. But I mean, I was like, I mean,
I was shaking. I'm shaking like the podium. And I mean, I was
shaking. I was stutter. I was I just, this was this was a
moment. And and so after I finished, it was pure
pandemonium, people weeping, wailing, crying, people leaving,
we baptize one lady in the hotel pool, like it was it was just
pandemonium. And but afterwards, I look back and I'm
like, man, that took boldness. It reaffirmed my identity. And
just like that Disney and Conto song, what else can I do? And so
I just realized, I'm like, man, and I and I remember one day in
prayer, I asked the Lord, Lord, would I do anything that you
asked me to do? Yes. Like, wow, that's cool. That's cool to
know. And so and so like, he's gonna have you do some things,
you know, just like the glycophate, like, whatever, the
glyphosate, whatever. So just just like that, you know, it's
that may not be her calling to be the anti glyco person of all
time. But But it is for her to recognize how brave she is. And
so when she does something like that, she'll like, wait a
minute, all of a sudden, your identity gets upgraded. And so
that's, I guarantee you, that's what he's gonna stairstep you,
he's gonna do it and as gentle but as direct way as possible.
But you're, you're gonna have, you're gonna have some some
things. If you haven't read the chapter one of the faith driven
network marketer, that will probably help you because I
talked a lot about I talked about obedience. And I talked a
lot about uncomfortable things he's called me to do.
Yeah, absolutely. Um, and so the one thing that I've kind of
wrestled with and preyed on and not really felt like I am
getting clarity on is
what, how exactly to present who I help how I help them and what
and why and why they should listen to me like honing in on
that is really something that
I'm wrestling with.
Yeah.
I've got one, but I just don't know if it's the right one.
Yeah. All right.
So the first thing I just want to confirm, the first thing that
popped up when you said that is that when you said that, you
So the first thing I just want to confirm, the first thing that
popped up when you said that is that when when we, sometimes
when we pray, you know, he keeps it interesting, right? His ways
are mysterious. Sometimes when we pray, it'll go back to how
And as soon as you said that, that's what I got. I got
thought. And so I would, when you pray about that, I would
really monitor what thoughts are being brought up when you
think, when you pray that. What thoughts is he bringing up?
What thoughts are he bringing up? What thoughts are he
when you think when you pray that? What thoughts is he
is being brought up? And I've had some really interesting
experience around that. I don't know. This is a weird one. I
don't know why. I haven't thought about this a long time,
but it come up twice today. So there was a there was a weird
I don't know what it was commercial, I guess a TV
commercial, maybe for Balenciaga. You guys know
Balenciaga? So Balenciaga is some fashion brand. And they
had this really weird commercials, either magazine or
online or something. I don't even know. And it had some
really weird stuff in it that hinted at like rape and
pedophilia and different stuff. And I saw a lot. I saw some
different.
you know, influencers talking about it. And this was, I
believe, this was probably like almost two years ago, maybe. And
so it was just just really creepy. It's really creepy. And
so I remember I was in Dallas at the time, I had, I had been on
some radio show, and I just trained at an event. And I could
not get it out of my head. And like, I just, I was just
inundated with it. And so I'm like, you know, this gotta be
the devil, right? And so I'm like, get this out of my head.
And you know, I bind and rebuke you in Jesus name, and I nothing
I could do would get it out of my head. And so I stepped into
it. And I'm like, Okay, Lord, am I supposed to do something with
this? And, and I ended up doing a video about it. And, and then
it was gone. Like I, so I felt like he was, he was just
bringing this to my attention and shaking me with this thing
and wanted me to do a video about it. And so I did. And then
I never haven't thought about it. You know, as long as I can
remember it until today. And so when you when you pray, you
know, we want, we want to hear a voice that's like, okay, who
you help is age 27 to 31. You know, like, we want it in a very
specific, you know, very pristine, you know, written out
for us, you know, manner. And he doesn't always work that way.
Sometimes he wants us to figure it out. And and so he'll bring
up a thought or a memory or something. And, and that's,
that's what I got when I prayed about this. And so I would, you
know, just get back into prayer and, and just really pay
attention, what's coming up for you? You know, what, what, what
thoughts, what memories? What might that lead? Ask? Okay,
look, and then you can confirm Lord, are you Lord, are you
saying you brought up my childhood? Like, what about that
childhood? Is there something I'm supposed to pay attention
to? And I just, you know, can you tell me more? Can you
elaborate? Like, I would, you know, stay in there. And as far
as when I'm in this kind of mode, like I have my fast mode,
you know, like I do a prayer walk, or I'm asking questions, I
still confirm, hey, are you saying this, this what you're
saying? Okay. But when I'm in that kind of mode, I just sit
there until he's done. You know, I have I'll have a notebook. And
I'll just I'll just take notes. Lord, do you have anything else
to add to this? Lord, do you have anything more to say about
this? Is there anything I should be asking? What else can I you
know, and I'll just, if he's talking, I'm there's nothing
more important. So I'll just listen. But I get pay attention
to your thoughts when you're in those prayers. That's what I
got. Thank you. Yeah. All right. Like that shirt. All right,
Tori.
Hey. Hey, so can you hear me? Yes. Okay. Um, first of all, I
have to apologize for being late. I was not paying
attention to the time. So I do apologize. But anyway,
well, we will we kind of, you know, do a little bit, you know,
we were supposed to start at one, but then I had a way to
change it. So
no worries. It was my fault. I just, you know, reading people
don't do that, you know, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, um, I am
excited, blessed, and a little worried, not worried so much.
Just kind of, I don't know. Um, God has been telling me for
probably three months or more. And I mean, it's been loud and
clear short of him coming down in the in front of me with a
club saying do this. I finally did to put my day job that I
have had for over six years. Back to part time from home,
which is how I started with that. And then do my business
on a much more full time basis. And I've been getting business
I've been getting, you know, people wanting to use my
services and things like that, which I'm so grateful for. And
I'm, I'm, I'm, between the day job and the stuff that I've had
on the service side has just been overwhelming. And I'm
grateful for that. But um, so my question is, I really want to
and I have been doing some consistent work on the
recruiting side of things. And I just really want to I want to
have a better, I don't know if it's a skill set or what it is,
God is continuing to reinforce that he is my source. Not money,
not my day job, not all these other things. And I'm, I'm
working on that. I'm trying. But I really want to focus more on
the recruiting and
I don't want just, I was up to team of seven, or personally, 17, team of about 40, and back
down to about 23, 24, personally, about 10.
And so I'm trying to not just focus on, oh, look, you're breathing.
You can sign up with me.
And so I'm just hoping that you can give me a little, I don't know, guidance or what God
is suggesting maybe.
I haven't gotten that.
I've gotten what I need to do.
And I finally did it this morning, actually had that call with my boss, who's a friend
of mine.
I mean, we've, you know, and it went really, really, really well, super well.
And she was totally on board, totally fine.
Yeah, work from home, yeah, maybe come in one day or here, there, whatever, it was,
it was great.
But anyway, just a little bit more guidance, please.
Yeah.
So, so one, you know, I like, you know, john 637 says, basically, whoever the Lord sends
to me, I'll never drive away.
And so we can't know someone's level of desire, not now or in the future.
And so I definitely had people that I brought into an organization that didn't do anything.
But two years later, they were a rock star.
And so I would just eliminate, like I was, I was, I was gonna say this to Brennan.
But when the what I've had to learn, and I had to learn this over and over is very
painful learning.
But you know, but Hebrews says, no discipline is painful at the time.
No, no discipline.
Wait, what does it say?
No, yeah, basically, discipline is painful, right at the time.
And so when he calls me to do something, I have to eliminate any result that I think
I'm going to get.
And so because too many times, he's called me to do something.
And I'm like, ooh, ooh, then it's gonna do this and this and this and this and this.
And so I get all hopped up.
And and it doesn't turn out that way at all.
And so I'm just like, okay, you're calling me to do this.
Perfect.
Let's go.
And and so I would one and I do talk a lot about this in the leadership book.
And so in the leadership book, I talk about culture, which is allowing, allowing people
to feel good, regardless of their level of desire or level of result.
And so what good culture will do is it will keep people around the campfire long enough
that they may just catch a spark.
And so doesn't mean that I'm, no one is ever able to I'm only going to recruit people of
high desire that want to crush this thing, like, never happens ever.
And no matter, I've never met a leader, 100% of my people are making money and fired up.
Not true.
Never seen it.
And, you know, what I have seen is the majority of leaders, regardless of their size of teams,
can boil the majority of their income down to six people.
Even people with teams of 100,000 people, they can pinpoint and you'll find about 90%
of them six people and their teams, right?
And so most people in your organization are not going to be rock stars.
But most people in your team, their definition of happiness is not the same as yours.
So if we think everyone's definition of happiness is big money, then yeah, we're gonna have
a lot of miserable people in our team.
But there I know people that have been in network marketing for 20-30 years never made
much money, but they love it.
You couldn't put a gun to their head and make them quit.
They love it.
They love the people they meet.
They love the experiences.
They love the product, the services.
Compensation is not the only thing, you know, for people, right?
It might be for us, right?
We might see as I'm doing this to make money, might be for us, but it's not for everyone.
And so I would eliminate any kind of, I need to overly qualify them to make before I introduce
them to my team.
I need to see them as a valuable soul to Christ and love on them.
And if they want to move forward, great.
If they don't, I still pray for them.
Awesome.
And so I would just, you know, you know, step in, step into that.
And then those who do have a high level of desire, obviously, you know, we spend a little
bit more time with them.
And so if someone raises their hand, says, I want to make it happen.
Okay, cool.
Go do this report back in.
Okay.
You want to rock and roll.
Okay.
Go talk to, you know, go talk to four people, report back in,
let me know what you hear.
And, and so, you know, the whole, and I talk about that in the leadership
book too, but go do this report back in is an extremely
duplicatable way of leadership.
And, you know, and, and we just know that one of the things I've
learned is the bigger they talk, uh, the less they'll do.
I've never seen this not be the case, unfortunately.
So I just, I just had a guy message me and, uh, he was like, I am ready
to crush it in this company.
And I'm like, oh no.
And, uh, I'm like, great, man.
Like, I don't, I don't let on that this is a red flag to me.
Right.
And I'm like, oh, cool, man.
And he got any response.
And he goes, you guys were open in Canada and Australia, right?
I'm like, no.
And he responds with a lower case.
Okay.
I'm like, uh, a hundred percent, a hundred percent.
I have never had someone talk big and them not, not do anything.
And, and so, you know, we, we manage our emotions and we manage being duped.
Um, but you know, we love on them.
We pray for them.
We bless them where we're here from.
And, um, and, and on the, you know, the other side of this is I had plenty of
people that I quite frankly didn't think would do anything, but they introduced
the right person, they introduced one person that completely changed the team.
I've had that.
I've seen that many times where someone only brings in one person, but that one
person is an absolute rockstar.
So you just don't know.
You just don't know how God's going to work through this thing and who's going to come
in.
And so I would just release any pressure of, I need to make sure everyone makes
money because no one does that.
Never seen any leader claim a hundred percent.
People make no one, even with even small teams, nobody.
And so, you know, but it's okay.
They're part of the team.
I love them.
God bless them.
All right.
I'm not going to drive them away and you do your best.
Okay.
Does that help?
It does.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Awesome.
Uh, Beverly.
Hi, a couple of things.
Um, just was wanting you to pray over me.
And, uh, the other one was, um, I'm it's the U S Canada thing right now.
And, um, I'm not getting objection.
Oh, it's the U S.
And, but there's that big discrepancy in our monies too.
Right.
So it's like a dollar $35, 40 or pan.
So just a little tip on that, how to deal.
When, when you say praise or something specific, you're just not feeling great.
And I don't know why, just so I can.
Okay.
All right.
Slowing me down and I can't get.
All right.
Let me, I'll do like a, be a nudge to do a more comprehensive thing.
I got to find my list though.
Give me a second.
Uh, Rebecca, uh, while I'm looking for my set of prayers here, um, you
got any, uh, suggestions on the U S Canada thing, those darn Americans.
Yeah.
Dual citizenship and move down South.
That'd be, I hear you, Beverly.
It's a weird, it's a weird climate.
I'm in Canada too, right now.
And, uh, and it's uncomfortable and we need to pray for our country
and for the leadership around decisions that are being made.
Right.
It's, it's pretty dicey.
Okay.
All right.
So I got a list of things.
I was nudged for a boat trip.
Okay.
So I got three things, um, cords, external energy, and someone.
let me just see one person has a spirit of offense against you
do you have any idea who might be really upset with you or something
i don't you could say you could say initials if you wanted to
um
i've been upset with myself a bit because of um um you know my brother i
lost him and i've since found out that the people i had looking after his
and helping him out didn't do the proper thing by him so i'm
i have been upset with myself for not having kept a check on them
like it was out of province what what's the main person that was involved
in your brother's care uh kim uh well no um
well she helped him a lot she was a positive force in his life but this
other was an agent a government agency that was supposed to be doomed
so so regardless of the role uh kim has now one thing to be clear about a
spirit of offense because i i used because i have i've had
a few people in my life that they just constantly would have a
spirit of offense against me because i i would pray it i'd see it in the
spiritual like what the hell you know like why are
they pissed at me again like this is very annoying
and and so um you know uh the enemy will use whatever he
can you know he's on a budget and so he'll he'll take you know and
this is i haven't said this one a while
ephesians i think 326 27 um be angry wait yeah be angry but do not sin don't
let the sun go down in your anger unless you give the devil a foothold
and so that foothold can be a spirit of offense
so even if someone was a little bit upset with you
the enemy can ramp that up and upgrade it to a spirit of offense
and it's not like that person chose a spirit of offense against you
it's that now it's a now it's a spiritual thing you know and i think
it's ephesians 6 12 that talks about we deal in
you know the spirit not the flesh and so uh the good news
is we're told what to do and and so um you know jesus said uh bless those who
persecute you uh first peter 3 9 said um don't trade
evil for evil insult for insult but instead bless that you can have a
blessing and so um for the particular because
there's three things there's cords there's external energy in the spirit of
offense and so um i don't know if releasing the
one will get rid of the rest but um and so what you would this you would
do is you would just say i bless kim in the
name of jesus christ so if you want to bless kim in the name
of jesus christ
um
okay so um what's that i was gonna say i've actually been
blessing her and get and sending stuff to her giving her stuff so
well the specific words right i i you know so you said
so so i get no more spirit of offense yay um and i have wild stories around
this man wild stories um
uh okay i'll share um so one of one of my
friends i don't know who on here might know him but a guy named gary
he um he was in prison and you know he uh
now very mighty man of god he helps me with stuff all the time
incredible guy and so he's in prison and there was this
one guy in prison that just had it out for him wanted to
wanted to beat him up all the time and so he would see the guy and he'd just
you know like dip the other way you know and you know my friend's a little
scrawny guy and you know and so one day
uh the time his timing is off and so he comes out of a cell this guy
came out of a sale the the guard just walked the other way
and the guy turned sees gary and gary's here he's there
and and it's on and so he starts going after him and gary's like you know kind
of you know kind of hustling to to get away
and and gary rushes into uh this room it's the music room
and and he's like oh my god i'm trapped like there's no escape there's no exit
and and the guy's coming in there and he's
just mad and he's just foaming at the mouth and
he comes in there and he goes and he grabs
gary and he goes like this to you know to hit him
and so he goes like
this and Gary's falling back and Gary says he just he just panics he goes I bless you in Jesus name
and they come down and the guy looks at him and he blinks his eyes and he walks away
and and so now I've seen this with um like a lot of times you don't see this real time
but I get to see it real time so we were down in Cabo and we I was I had my um my phone and
I was filming some baptisms we were doing right and so we're in we're in the pool and there's
this lady on Instagram and she's like uh this isn't how baptisms are supposed to be you know
she shouldn't be in such a skimpy bathing suit and she's like you know just dropping this nasty
just hate you know and and so I see it and I see her name and I say you know I bless her in Jesus
name father thank you for blessing her and about a minute goes by and then her comment is actually
this is kind of beautiful and and she dropped several nasty comments and then she was kind of
beautiful and so it's really amazing how this whole spiritual thing because you can buy flowers
chocolates you can you can buy xboxes you can give gift certificates that's not spiritual this
is a spiritual war that you know that we're in and so um the uh so the the cords uh you don't
need to know who that's from or what that's from uh it's not from Kim it's a different thing um
um all right so for cords so um
okay I mean I guess I can say it so you don't have to say this
all right so for cords and I and I do this all the time um because I feel it on me um and so
for cords uh I can just I can just say it for you but you know you you could say this um
if you're ever feeling down again because a lot of times this will help and that is um I
sever all cords attached to beverly I sever all cords attached to beverly in Jesus name
father thank you for severing all cords attached to beverly right now lord in Jesus name amen
amen amen okay and then for external energy it is um I remove all external energy
from beverly in Jesus name I remove all external energy from beverly in Jesus name
father thank you for removing all external energy from beverly right now lord in Jesus name amen
okay all right so see how you start feeling here shortly relaxed yeah like any any time I
irrationally feel tired like I it's all almost always either entities cords or external energy
and so I'll say these prayers works almost every time and you know so so where does it what is the
external energy or the cord um so my understand I didn't study any of this stuff but he's just
you know show me this and in prayers and stuff so my understanding is cords is kind of like
expectations or desire so I used before I understood this you know we ran a you know
annual event for 11 years and at the end of day one my feet would hurt so bad like I would just
I would just be exhausted my feet would hurt like it you know it just felt like I'd been someone
had taken a bat to the bottom of my feet and um I didn't understand it and so what it actually was
is you know when I when I speak there are people that either um have negativity toward me that's
one two have expectations or three have desires I don't mean like you know sexual but like desires
of oh I want more time with him I want like they want more from me and it's some kind of energetic
like cord that that plugs into me that drains me and so at the end of last year's faith over fear
I just did you know that you know I several cords attached to me in Jesus name I remove
all external energy felt like a million bucks felt like I hadn't even spoken that day felt 100%
and and so wish I would have known it 10 years earlier um but you know so um the same you know
external energy I think can be either can be uh
negative, you know, unclean spirits, spiritual kind of stuff, or other people's, you know, energy.
And so, you know, it's just usually they both kind of go together.
It's like, I feel like I can't keep up the thing so that maybe I'm putting pressure on myself even.
Yeah, I mean, you know, the enemy loves to do that.
The enemy loves to convince you that you got too much to do and you'll never catch up and, you know, that kind of stuff.
So I still like, you know, yesterday's schedule and today's schedule, I'm like, man, that's a lot.
And I know that's just the enemy talking.
Because every time I look at my schedule, I'm like, damn, that's a lot.
I don't know how I'm going to do that.
It gets done with ease.
And it's actually wonderful.
And so I'm like, okay, at one point, am I going to, you know, stop projecting this is going to be difficult.
I got a lot to do and just realize that I have perfect timing with Christ and he's going to handle all this.
And so I'm still not 100% there, but, you know, it's becoming more and more evident.
Thank you.
Yeah, you got it.
All right.
So that's great.
Thank you.
Yay.
Awesome.
Very cool.
Lauren.
Good to see you.
Good morning.
I have actually praise report from last time that we spoke.
So I wanted to share that first.
You told me, you know, and I asked if I should, you know, step out because I still wasn't feeling well and you told me to.
So I did, you know, I talked to the Lord and I did the very next day.
And I put on, you know, post about a challenge, a five day challenge of praying with God.
And I had 14 people reach out to me.
I didn't reach out to any of them, which was very odd for that to happen for me because that's never happened before.
So I had 14 people who joined the challenge.
And no sooner did, you know, one of the things I was talking to the Lord about, it's like, but I don't really know that I have the energy to do this right now, God, you know, I'm still trying to, you know, recover.
And no sooner did I put out the message, besides those 14 people reaching out to me, Kyle reached out to me and asked me to join him and him and they would run the challenge.
And I was just kind of blown away how the Lord set everything up for me, you know, because I took that step of obedience.
That's awesome.
Yeah, I've seen that many times where he has you take a step and you think, oh, okay, but you take the step just for him to surprise you with some other like, you know what, I'm going to do it, you know, you don't need to do it.
And, and that, that reminds me of the, the other Dion story, Rebecca, you got to hear last Monday. And so, you know, Dion was my one of my partners in Brilliant, and he was telling me, us that he had he had this really big deal going, I don't remember the exact details, but he had this really big deal going on.
And they needed a 100 page report by 5pm the next day on all the logistics and the metrics and the whatever else, right, this very intense report, 100 pages.
And so he goes to his wife, and he says, Okay, if I stay up all night, I might might be able to get this done by 5pm tomorrow, which is when they need it.
And she's like, okay, and he prays and he gets go to bed.
You need some sleep. He's like, Lord, you know, we're trying to inform God right he doesn't know so Lord, let me, let me plead my, you know, this is a big report I'm not gonna be able to do it if I sleep and go to bed you need sleep.
Gets up really, really early. He's like, All right, I'm up early. I it's possible I could do it. And so he goes to work on it and he gets don't work on it right now.
Lord, I need to do this. I'm not gonna be able to do it. Read a book. Read a book. You want me to read a book. I need to do this report, read a book.
Do you trust me? Yes.
It gets on the couch, he's reading a book and he's, you know, flipping the pages, you know, he's, you know, he's upset, right? I need to do this report.
And so he's reading, you know, you're reading the book. And, you know, a few other things happen. It's 4pm.
He's one hour away from the port reporting has made zero progress and the Lord telling them don't work on it.
He gets a call from the attorney and they say, Hey, we're so sorry. You've probably been up all night. We don't need the report today. We're so sorry.
but, you know, we could use it in a couple of weeks.
He hangs up the phone.
He hears the Lord is like, now do you trust me?
And he says, oh, by the way, he hears in prayer,
oh, by the way, I don't want you to ever do it.
And about a week later, they call back and say,
hey, we're going in a different direction.
We're not going to need it.
How fun is that?
That's amazing.
And so, like, it's always fun hearing, like,
your experience, Dion's experience,
because, you know, I just, we have, you know,
I've experienced these kind of things,
and sometimes it feels a little lonely
because I'm not hearing anyone else
share these kind of things.
And so it's really, really cool.
Yeah.
So my question for you is,
I've been tossing around three things, obviously.
I've got brilliant, which I love,
and that's like the lower thing, and it's faith-based.
The next one is, it's another faith-based one,
which is, it's Revelation Wellness.
It's a health and fitness, which I'm a coach for that.
And then there's my Kingdom Alliance,
which is a leadership, and it's, you know,
so it's like, they're all faith-based,
but like different levels.
And it's just like, I feel, I just,
I have such a passion for all three of them.
And it's like, do I have to pick one?
So you bring up a good point in that you, we do,
I'm sure some might disagree with this,
but my experience is I want to,
so when it's, you know, seek ye first the kingdom of God,
it's, I put that above everything else.
And so I've learned,
I don't want to go with emotions to prayer.
I don't want to be like, oh, I really hope,
I really hope for this thing, because I really love it.
Like, Lord, Lord, can I do this thing?
And because, you know, Ezekiel 14, two through five says,
if they come to me with idols in their heart,
I'll respond to them with idols in their heart.
And there's been things that I've gone to him,
gone to the prayer, and I was emotionally attached to,
and I really did want to be his will,
and I don't get accurate answers.
And so, but if we can step into, you know, Isaiah 55, 8, 9,
his ways are higher than our ways.
I just put your will above my desires.
So Father, thank you for putting your will above my desires.
And so I know that there's a reason.
If I, so if I love, you know, 50 options,
and he tells me one, I know there's a reason for it.
And so I don't know the reason, right?
I don't know, but I'll lean not on my own understanding,
and I'll say, okay.
You know, like there's been times where,
this is a really tricky one to talk about,
but there's been times where
I needed to do something for someone,
and he told me to wait.
And so like, Lord, I need to do this for them.
I need to, you know, pay them, or I need to do this thing.
I want you to wait.
Oh, this doesn't look good, Lord.
You don't want me to look bad.
Like, you know, I need to do this thing.
Wait.
And he had me wait so that I could see their heart.
And so, you know, there are people
that we think are in our corners
until it's not exactly the way they want it.
And then it's revealed who they really are to us.
And so those are some tricky times.
I've had, you know, quite a few of those,
where, you know, I was supposed to do this thing
for a person, I was told to wait,
and then all of a sudden I saw this guy,
I was told to wait, and then all of a sudden
I saw a very different side of them.
And he wanted me to see that.
And I'm like, Lord, is that what you wanted me to see?
Absolutely.
Okay.
And so I would, now I don't know if the answer,
the answer may not be.
Your answer may be build all three, or maybe a fourth.
You know, maybe you're to create a parent company
that has all three of those.
I don't know, but he does.
And so I would just, you know,
so a good, a really good prayer, we said it earlier.
I think it was on here.
And that is, father,
thank you for aligning my heart with your heart.
Father, thank you for aligning my heart with your heart.
I don't want my emotions to get in the way.
I don't want me to have, you know,
some passion.
that I've positioned higher than your will
or some passion that I have
that I deem as more of a priority than you are.
I don't ever want that to happen.
So thank you for aligning my heart with your heart.
Father, am I to build these three?
Are we doing this?
Am I picking one?
Because whatever his answer is, is the right answer.
And now I will tell you,
I doubt you'd get it in this kind of scenario,
but there are times where I get, well, what do you want?
I have gotten that.
It's very uncomfortable, actually.
I don't like it.
I prefer, like, you just tell me, man.
But I have, I have,
I doubt you would get it in this kind of thing,
but I have had it where, you know,
because I pray around everything that I eat.
I pray around everything that I wear.
I pray, like, I pray around everything.
And there are times where I've had, well, what do you want?
And I'm like, well, how about this one?
And I still want him to say yes.
And so, but I, you know, I would pray.
It may not, you may not, he may have you, again,
create some parent conglomerate that has all three of them.
I don't know, but he knows.
And so I would just, I would just watch my,
the whole point of this entire long story
is watch my emotions when entering into prayer.
Thank you.
Yeah, you got it.
You got it.
We'll keep us in the loop.
Laura.
Hey.
Thank you.
Hi, Ray.
Hi, everyone.
So nice to be here.
So, a follow-up.
Last time I spoke about doing a trade show,
which were, it was great.
You said collect the cards.
I gave a giveaway.
Actually, everybody in the whole show gave a giveaway.
So everybody was getting the cards.
So the cards were not qualified,
but I did manage to get about 30 qualified
out of the hundred.
And I was finding it really difficult for my follow-up.
So what's your pattern?
What if I did get a hundred that were,
I mean, it just was to enter them into my phone,
to send them a message.
It just seemed like, is there a program to do that?
Or there must be a better way.
So help.
Thank you.
Yeah.
So, number one, know that most of the,
I bet, I'm totally willing to bet
that most people at that show
did not follow up with any of them.
Most people are terrible at follow-up.
Okay.
And so that's the majority.
Okay.
So when I would do that kind of thing and follow up,
most of the times, the number one thing I would hear is,
oh my God, you followed up.
And I'm like, yeah.
And like, no one else did.
Yeah, yeah, well.
So you stand out.
And so that's number one.
Most people, I just bet, did not follow up.
Number two, if they did follow up,
they did it very poorly
in that they just sent them some dumb company email
or something or some flyer or some, you know,
just pitch some, you know, thing like that.
The most powerful way, and it's not,
a lot of times people want to automate the thing
that is the most important,
and connection is very important.
People are trying to AI connection and human connection,
and that's usually doesn't work.
And so if I'm doing that
and I'm wanting to maximize my efforts,
it's not going to be super efficient.
I'm not going to feed them into a program
and then, you know, spit out some magic or whatever.
I'm actually going to, if they have a cell phone on there,
I'm going to text them,
hey, this is Laura, met you at the expo,
didn't get a chance to talk to you very much.
Appreciate you so very much.
You know, like I'm going to connect with them in that way.
And I'm going to say, you know,
I'm going to ask them, you know, a question.
I'm going to attempt to connect with them.
And, you know, so I wouldn't,
now some people would call, I would text.
Text, yeah.
Yeah, that's how I would handle it.
If they don't have a cell phone on there,
then I would shoot an email,
but, you know, because they should have emails on there,
but I'm not going to,
let me just try to automate this thing
and, you know, send it to a program or something like that,
because it's just so important.
You don't know if one of those people
is going to become your best customer.
You have no idea.
And so I would text them.
Okay, so I have, say I have 30 qualified,
somewhat qualified leads.
How do you know if they're qualified and the rest aren't?
Well, because I spoke to them
and I put a star on their card.
So I knew that I had a conversation with them.
So in order for me to send them a text and to do the follow-up, I had to put their information
in my phone, is what I did.
So I put their name, their phone number, their email in my phone, that took time.
And then I'd send them a message, you know, hi, great to meet you at the show, blah, blah,
blah.
And here's a video, and you know what, I look forward to.
I wouldn't send them any information or sales info.
I wouldn't send them any of that, but I would ask a question.
So it would, you know, do all that you said up until I sent them a video.
I wouldn't have permission to send them a video.
Fair enough.
So, you know, and I'm not saying the video may or may not be the next step, but I would
say, you know, hey, it was good connecting with you, would have loved to connect with
you more.
You know, you may or may not recall, but I help people with blank.
Is that something you have any interest in learning more about?
Let me know.
See?
Make the rest of your life be the best of your life.
Okay.
Yes.
I mean, that, you know, make the rest of your life be the, you know, it may need to be more
specific than that because they may not know what that means.
And so, you know, clear beats clever.
And so, you know, I would try to be clear in, you know, what, what's going to jog their
memory and they may not, don't even assume they'll remember, but, you know, what, what
is going to see if they have any interest at all in what it is that I do.
That would be the focus.
Okay.
So it's a lot of work doing trade shows.
Yeah.
And so it's just like, like a lot of influencers make this mistake in that, you know, they're
doing all these videos all the time.
Right.
And, and one of them finally goes viral and their complaint is how do I follow up with
all these people?
It's like, well, wait a minute, isn't that why you've been doing videos?
Right.
And so we can get so caught up in the routine.
We miss.
Oh yeah.
The reason I'm doing this is to connect with people and, and so, you know, but it disrupts
our routine.
It disrupts, you know, so that person that, you know, if they have a viral video, my advice
is okay, you may have to suspend your routine for a little bit so that you can follow up
with all these people and, you know, and because that, this may, this could go from just another
video to a million dollars.
You don't know.
You have no idea.
And, and so, you know, you want to, you know, connect.
Super.
Thank you so much.
Thank you for all the lessons and information.
So everyone, thank you.
Great.
Great to be a part.
For sure.
Lisa B.
What's happening?
Oh, hello.
Hi everyone.
Well, you had told me to build my brand around grief and, and I know that's what I was supposed
to do.
Can you hear me?
Good enough.
I'm in the car.
I can.
So I went to a fitness retreat on my birthday on a cruise, whatever.
So we had like a little session and one of the young ladies there had lost, just had
lost both of her parents in a car accident.
And that gave me like so much confirmation, you know, a younger lady, 28, that I was able
to, you know, I can relate to her, you know, and she was really to me.
So I've been, you know, chatting with her just as an ear, just to listen, not really
giving no advice, but just to be there for.
So I know I'm walking into to the car, it's just still, you know, a little heavy for me.
So, you know, I'm doing it a little slower, but I'm also doing the life insurance and
then I was doing the network marketing.
So it just seems like I need to, I know I need the grief is going to be a little slower
building that brand, but the other two, I'm leaning more towards the life insurance than
the network marketing business.
My posts have been just like with the network market, weight loss, as I lose weight, I'm
advertising stuff like that, but I'm not really pushing hard to it.
And I'm doing leaning more into my insurance business.
And I just wanted to know what was your thoughts on, do I need to pick one?
Because I hear some people like, like pick one and stick with it while I'm building up
the grief brand.
Does it make sense?
Yeah, I mean, you know, so first, you know, congrats on it's always cool and we're walking
in our anointing, right?
It's awesome.
so helping that person with their grief. So, I mean, the kind of
worldly accepted thought among successful people is to focus, you know, to focus on one.
But that doesn't mean that that's always the case. And so I would definitely, I would get
into prayer around that and see, you know, which, you know, which of these he's, you know,
yeah, I would, you know, I would, I would pray around that. I mean, that's, that's what I would
do. I'm telling you what I would do. And, you know, like I do, I think someone, I don't know
if it was on here, might've been on the 1k challenge, but someone asked, you know, if I
believe in multiple streams of income? Absolutely. No question. But where I want to look at,
are they in alignment? Are they opposing? You know, I don't, I don't want to be teaching,
hey, buy these antioxidants and also selling cigarettes. Like, like, you know,
are they, are they in alignment? You know, that's, that's a question one.
Do they both require the same kind of effort?
Right. Are they, are they similar lifts, right. With the same kind of, of effort
or as one more outsourced than the other. And so I'll give you an example. I'll actually pull it
up here. So show this real quick. So here's a cool example. So this is so my buddy, Josh,
he runs a debt negotiation company. And so he spits out these results that he's gotten with
people I've referred him. Okay. Now, if you notice there's no names, so I never know who anyone is,
but these are people I've referred. So the people I've referred in the last five months,
he has saved them $824,000 total, $175,000 yearly, and almost $15,000 monthly. And so you can,
you can see, you know, like the latest one, they enrolled that 24,000 in debt and their
current monthly payment was 1130. He got the new monthly payment to 425. So they're saving 704 a
month every month. And so why did I bring that up? Well, I also get compensated when I refer people
to him. And, you know, you know, this month I'll think I'm got paid 13,000 bucks. It requires
very little of my time in that. I, I just introduced, Hey, here he is. He's over there.
Go talk to him. Not everyone jumps through it. Some are skeptical, so they don't do it,
whatever. And so like that, that's just a really easy source of, of goodness to people,
helping them very little effort of my own. And, and so, you know, I do weigh that when I'm looking
at income streams, am I going to, you know, so if it's, I have to sell this thing and I have to
follow up and I have to process and I have to do the paperwork, you know, like if, if, if I have
two of those, I'm going to question, okay, am I supposed to be doing both of these? Cause it just
seems like, um, you know, so I, I would, but I would pray. I would pray on that. Okay. I definitely,
I definitely get that. Yeah. It probably, um, is where the Lord's leading your heart. You know,
a lot of people, they like to quote from old Testament, Jeremiah, um, don't trust the heart
as deceitful, you know, above all things, but we were given a new heart. And so that's, that's,
it's a little, it's different, right? Not that we shouldn't watch our emotions. We definitely should,
but we, we were given a new heart. So Jeremiah doesn't apply to the new heart in Christ.
And so you just kind of understand that some people will take that and bash anything you're
passionate about. Well, I don't think the Lord wants us here, not passionate about anything,
you know, like I think he wants us fired up. Um, so, okay. And another, just a personal question.
Um, like I told you before, like this is, I'm new with walking with Christ and, you know,
reading my Bible. Um, and it's a little embarrassing to say, but I'm kind of,
as my grandmother used to say, one foot in the door and one foot out the door,
um, you know, is it wrong to still have a Prosecco? You know what I mean? Like,
Like I'm starting to feel like maybe I shouldn't be having a Prosecco when I'm reading the Bible.
Like I'm feeling like, like you said, a spiritual warfare, like, you know, my friends are still
crying and drinking.
That's not the blasphemous Prosecco.
And I'm, I'm like, I don't know, I do want to, like, it's.
So let me help you with that.
So now I will say the Lord called me not to drink.
So I haven't drank anything.
And, you know, I've had one drink in, like, probably eight months, nine months.
But I don't I don't think that's I don't think he wants none of us to drink.
OK, so Old Testament is all about what to do, what not to do.
New Testament is being is more about your heart.
OK, so Old Testament, don't you dare commit adultery.
New Testament, don't lust after other people.
Right.
And so, you know, Old Testament is don't kill somebody.
New Testament is don't even think about killing somebody.
And so, you know, our, you know, walking in Christ, it's much it's not it's not about
it's where is our heart, where is our heart?
So if we're drinking Prosecco and saying, screw you, God, you know, like that's not
a good idea.
You know, that's that's ill advised.
But if you're enjoying Prosecco and that you don't see it as blasphemy or something
like that, I just don't see the problem.
And so it's it's it's where where is our heart, you know, where is our heart position?
And thinking like that will help you understand a lot of scripture that may be difficult.
And so there's there's scripture that, you know, that I looked at that was kind of like
I'll give you one example.
So when Moses is at the, you know, the waters of Meribah, I think is what it's called.
And so, you know, they needed water.
They're all complaining.
They've been complaining the whole time.
Right.
And so God says, all right, go speak to the rock.
I'm going to provide some water.
And Moses goes and he hits the rock three times and and he says, listen up, you rebels.
And and so where was Moses's heart like he didn't want them to get a reward.
He was sick and tired of them.
But he's a representative of the most high.
And so God tells him it is because of that.
They actually also talk about this in one of the Corinthians.
And so because of that, that's why he wasn't allowed in the promised land.
So some people say, oh, he hit the rock.
It must have been a sacred rock.
What are you talking about?
Something to do with the rock.
It was his heart.
Right.
God told him, hey, let's give him a break.
Let's get him some water.
He goes, listen up, you rebels, I'm going to give you some water.
And that wasn't the heart posture that God wanted him to have with the Israelites.
He was actually one to show grace.
And instead, he twisted it.
And so he said, OK, you ain't seen the promised land.
And so he didn't.
And and so it's it's heart.
So, you know, understanding, you know, where's where's my heart?
And I definitely know what I'd say.
I don't think like, you know, I don't I don't really I don't I don't think God really cares
if we have a lot of money, don't if we're in shape or not.
I just don't think he really cares about that.
But you can like for, you know, for me, I gave the Lord permission to make me excellent
in every way.
And I said, Lord, I give you permission.
Lead me, because I realized that I had excellent in some areas of my life, but I was constantly
battling my weight, feeling overweight, not liking how I looked.
And so I just I gave him permission.
I don't think he's like, well, if Ray doesn't have a six pack, then he's a loser.
Like I do not think he thinks that I don't think he really cares.
But I gave him permission.
And so he started guiding me.
Don't eat that.
Eat that.
Don't drink that.
Do that.
And so he started guiding me and I easily lost thirty five pounds.
It just wasn't a struggle.
I I'm lower than I was in high school.
So silly and I'm stronger than I was in high school.
Strange.
And so he'll guide you in whatever way you want.
And this and this does go back to also to Ezekiel is if we have.
If we have he I heard a friend say it this way, he said, God won't get rid of a buddy.
God won't get rid of a buddy.
So some people have a very bad buddy.
And for some people, it's victimhood.
For some people, they are so buddied up with being a victim.
And so they talk about being a victim all the time.
They're constantly pointing to where they were victimized.
They're just it's just their buddy.
Right.
They're just coddled up with it.
It's nice and cozy.
They're used to it.
God won't actually get rid of that until you're like, OK, I am.
repulsed by this, thank you for helping me get rid of this
because that is an idol in the heart.
And that's Ezekiel 14, two through five.
And so, let me not have idols in my heart.
Let me not be addicted to drinking or smoking.
If I'm just having a drink here and there, that's fine.
But if I, and Paul said this too,
he said, I can drink all things.
I can eat all things, but they don't own me.
And not everything is good for me.
I forget the location, but it's somewhere.
I don't know, I don't know where it is.
So, let me not have anything own me
and me be addicted to it.
And so, I can eat all things, I can drink all things,
but let them not own me.
Let me not be addicted to them.
And some of them aren't good for me, is what he said.
And that's wisdom.
Okay, thank you.
That's what I've been doing,
but I just wanted to throw that out there.
It's an embarrassing question.
Yeah, yeah.
No, no, no, it's a good, it's an honest question
because people struggle with that.
And the mistake is, you know, some Christians, you know,
would be turned the holier-than-thou thing on
and say, you're not supposed to do that.
And that's just not, that's not our place.
It's not our place to judge or correct.
Our job is to love.
Our job is to demonstrate, not dominate.
So, we demonstrate the love of Christ
that make people want more of it.
We don't dominate through finger-waving
and shaming and judging.
You know, we don't dominate a culture.
We demonstrate, right?
We're the light of the world,
the city on the hill that can't be hidden,
so people want what we have.
And I've had that with clients.
You know, I had a client that was
Hare Krishna, right?
Some other religion.
I don't know it.
I don't know what it means.
But when she would ask me questions,
I would get into prayer and come back with an answer.
And she really liked that.
She goes, I want to be able to do that.
I'm like, well, I mean, I just consult the Holy Spirit
for you to get the Holy Spirit.
This is what it looks like.
And she's like, okay.
And so I walked her through accepting Christ
and now she prays all the time.
And it's cool.
Yes, it is cool.
Thank you.
Yep, you got it.
Okay, all right.
So I don't see any other hands raised.
What do we do at this point?
Are there questions?
Are there anything else I can help with?
Carrie, did you want me to,
you had asked me a question.
You want me to do that privately or you want,
what, well, I think you might be driving.
So, all right, Heather, what's happening?
How's our bundle of joy?
One day at a time, praise the Lord.
I know I'm excited because it's just like,
I'm past due, I'm past due, I need to get out again.
What I have been getting out
is just getting back in that zone again
and just asking God, okay, like, I think he's,
well, I know that I've been settling for a church
because at the time during COVID,
it was convenient because it was down the road,
but there was like, like my sister
and I had a good talk today.
She's like, well, I know I've been bugging you.
I've been bugging you because my home church
is like an hour away
and they connected with another church.
Let me move.
You're fine, honey.
I, whoop, everything crashes down.
Yeah.
I wound up taking and I've been praying about it
because I thought, you know,
I wound up coming back to that church
because I thought, oh yeah, well, you know,
it sounds like I'm supposed to learn something
from this church and I hate to say it,
but I'm finding that I don't know
if I'm really spiritually growing
because I'm a worshiper.
I know that I have to do it by myself,
but it's more of a Wesleyan church.
And I've been, like, I love the people.
A lot of them are older people that go there
and I love their hearts.
It's just, I'm noticing that,
I'm noticing that I'm just like,
I do get something, but at the same time,
like I know that when you go to church,
it's not to have a social hour.
You know, you're supposed to, you know,
but I'm noticing that my husband and I,
like the last time I went to this other church
because the one that we're looking at
has partnered with my home church that's an hour away.
This one is a lot closer.
to us. And the people that go to it, some of the congregation from the other church
that's an hour away, they have moved because it's closer to where they are. And a lot of
those individuals, it's just like, we'll try to make plans. And we might have maybe one
elderly couple that we'll stay after and have lunch together. But then they go home
and every time we want to make plans with other people there, it's like the whole I've
already made plans I could, you know, so it's just, it's frustrating. But I'm, you know,
like, I'm trying to pray about it. Because the last time I went to the one that's closer
to us, which is probably about 25 minutes, I had a panic attack. And I was, I was proud
of myself. So I stayed at least an hour. It wasn't like in and out kind of thing. So that
was good. But it just like, I'm hoping to go back there because I know a lot of these
people like to get together outside of church and actually connect, you know, and because
a lot of them connect there. And a lot of them I know can relate to what I've been through,
which it feels good to start claiming it as its past and moving forward, which I'm getting
better at. Um, you know, so it's just, on top of that, it's just like the business I
am. I'm trying to be obedient. And I'm trying to, I'm, you know, I've been praying for God's
guidance and stuff. And it's just like, I try to stay true to the tick tock. Um, which
is really neat because God gave me a title. So I must be doing something where it's lining up
where it's called this is your daily dose of love. And even the title is really like unique.
So it's just like, I think it's like running out of ideas on like, I know I'm supposed to
talk about love. And I admit, I haven't had one customer sense. And I think it's because I know
for me, I'm not putting the effort or something, something's lacking. Um, in terms of where
Yeah, I would. So a couple things, you know, came up while you're talking. The first one is,
um, the Lord isn't going to keep you at the same level of the same activity level, right?
It's not like, it's much more like him to upgrade you into bigger levels of discomfort.
And so, so it'd be, I'm not, I wouldn't be surprised at all, if he's calling you to go
to the church an hour away, like that wouldn't surprise me at all. What I would be surprised at
is if no, no, no, he says to go to that same one every single time. And, and, and, you know,
that's, that's the extent of your discomfort. That would surprise me by him saying now he wants me to
go to Oklahoma. This is crazy. You know, like that'd be like, ah, that sounds like him. Um,
and so, you know, that, that's number one. Number two is some good prayers around that
of, um, I actually just taught this yesterday, actually. Um,
Cause I'm praying, like I'm supposed to go the one that has partnered,
like the one down the road from my house is not even a mile. And that's the Lillian church.
And the other one that's partnered with the same church family. That's an hour away.
They're 25 minutes away, but I've been more tugged in that direction where I used to work.
And it's like, I just, so this, this will be a good question for you,
Lord, what do I need to let go of to move forward?
And, um, and I would, I would also, um, prayer. So I, that would be a great one for you.
And I would also pray around, um, you know,
Lord, how do you think about how I should show up on social media? I would, I would ask that question.
And, you know, cause, cause if you're, if you're a little bit off,
And maybe he's wanting more authenticity or vulnerability,
or I don't know.
But if you're a little bit off, it
wouldn't be like him to really bless your efforts,
because then what do we believe?
Oh, I'm doing it right.
I got it.
I nailed it.
Right?
Right.
And so it's, let me hold back results.
And then she tweaks then, ah, OK, there we go.
I want her to know that that's the way.
And I'll give you one example there,
is when I started this weight loss kind of journey,
I'm losing weight, I'm working out,
and people are like, man, you look so skinny.
I'm like, I don't want to look skinny.
Someone said, you look like a runner.
And I'm like, no disrespect to my runners,
but I want to be muscular, man.
And so I prayed about that.
And I was just ridiculously strict.
I would stop eating at like 2 or 3 PM in the day.
And so I prayed about that.
And I got, you need to eat more.
And I'm like, oh, really?
I need to eat more?
I just, my old fat memory of like,
it can't be the answer.
I need to eat more.
Because I still, I would actually see myself in pictures
and be like, wow, I have lost a lot of weight,
because I just hadn't realized it yet.
I still thought, I still in my head
saw myself as, I still need to lose 30 pounds.
And so that's why I wasn't eating very much.
I wasn't gaining muscle.
And so that day, I probably added 150 grams of protein
that day and every day thereafter.
And my muscles just completely adjusted.
All of a sudden, my wife's like, you're looking buff.
All of a sudden, it just, everything changed.
So had he blessed my incorrect way of eating,
I wouldn't have drawn the conclusion to the better way.
And so now, I find myself at the end of every day,
did I eat enough?
No, I need to eat more.
OK, so I'll make a hamburger or something.
I just eat a lot of protein.
And so that's an example of, if I
draw the wrong conclusion, wouldn't have been good.
He helped me get the right conclusion.
So we can look at, if when we're showing up and not getting
results, we know there's got to be some tweak here.
There's got to be some little adjustment
he's wanted us to make.
What is that adjustment?
And so earlier, this was a year and a half ago,
probably half or more, there was a period of time
where I mainly talked about scripture and salvation.
And I didn't even have any consideration
for business or marketplace or money
or any of that kind of stuff.
And I just love talking about it.
So that's what I would talk about.
And so he helped tweak me.
He's helped, hey, you can bring up scripture, you do that,
but you're to serve people in the marketplace.
And you want to bring people to Christ,
I'll give you those opportunities,
but you're to talk about the marketplace.
You're to talk about business and faith.
You're to combine those two, talk
about how to have God in the marketplace, in your business.
And so he gave me that tweak and results definitely
changed big time because I wasn't getting hardly
any results at all.
I'm still doing it because I love doing it,
but I wasn't getting any results at all
when I was talking about salvations.
And that was the level of spirituality
I was focused on versus when I started mixing.
Here's how to walk with Christ in your business.
Here's how God and money, Bible and business,
faith and finance.
And so that's, I started seeing a lot different results.
So there's some kind of tweak there.
Some kind of tweak, I would.
And it's so good you talked about weight
because I know that's an area that I've gained so much
that it's just like, it's weird because like, I admit,
I love my sponsor to pieces,
but there was a comment she made,
which actually made me do it more in Facebook
where she said, well, Heather, people like us
that are heavy shouldn't be doing workout videos.
Well, I did another one and I had like almost 500
some odd views overnight and all these little.
Oh, gee, a few comments here. And I was just like, okay, so
maybe Facebook is more weight stuff. And Tick Tock is more the
love Jesus stuff with maybe throwing in the products, or
whatever, you know, because I'm like, I have a weird crowd. And
I'm also learning like, she was telling me that I should, like,
find my like, who is my audience? And she gave me all
her sizes, but a part of me is like, it's trying to narrow in
because there's like, I have like a gardening group that I
really get excited about. And it's like, like, I feel like
I'm in the wrong kind of business. I feel like, like, I
hate to say it, but I feel like I'm not supposed to be beauty
care. Or, like, yes, I struggle with dry skin, eczema, sensitive
skin. But a part of me is like, whenever I speak even with
family, like my mom said, a comment the other day that it
was hard to hear. But she said, if your little brother comes to
see you from Utica in New York, are you going to be talking to
him and his wife about your business? And a part of me that
came out of nowhere that said, did he tell you to tell that to
me? And it was just like, it was, you know, it's just like,
which, you know, I had to talk to my brother because I didn't
get to see him for Easter. So it was just like a lot of this
stuff. I'm glad God is helping me to be brave to talk to family
that I had to apologize. But a part of me was like, I'm glad I
apologize. But a part of me is like, why am I apologizing when
if somebody knew my heart was in the right place, you know, of
helping, but it was just like,
yeah, I mean, to me, I think to me, I think the Lord is
toughening you up from the opinions of others. That's my
take, because you're getting quite a few different things.
And, you know, I mean, I get this kind of stuff all the time.
And, you know, and so like, I think he's toughening you up to
stop relying on the opinions of others and to rely on him to
stop expecting Christ like behavior from those who aren't
Christ like, like, it's actually preposterous to expect Christ
like behavior from someone who has no desire to do that, or to
expect worldly behavior. And yes, that's where I'm being
I heard, I heard a great story from Graham the other day. No,
this was today, actually. So Graham, when he was, you know,
early, I think it was mid, maybe mid to late 20s, I think. So he
was starting off as a pastor, young pastor, and there was a
pastor in his town that hated him so much, that he talked more
about him that he did about Jesus. And so he just bashed
Graham, Graham was the devil, he's the worst thing ever, don't
even look him in the eye, he may, you know, hypnotize you,
like, he's like the worst thing on planet, he's the Antichrist,
or maybe even worse somehow. And, and so, you know, people
would come to Graham and be like, man, that guy's really
got it out for you. And he just like, Oh, you know what, I wish
him well, and all that stuff. And, and so just really adamant
about bashing Graham. And so one day, you know, he and some
people had come to Graham, and said, Hey, you know, his church
is really struggling, like, they're really, you know, not
doing good. And they're, they're saying it as if that should make
Graham happy. And, and Graham, who is very much Christlike, you
know, he's like, well, we shouldn't root for that, guys,
you know, we should root for him to draw closer to God, not, you
know, wipe them out, like, you know, we should be praying for
him. And, and then in prayer, he got, because he was his, the
other church was really struggling. God told him, I want
you to start writing them checks, and I wanted to be
anonymous. And so, Graham, okay, you know, he's obedient, starts
writing checks to this church of the pastor that hates his guts
and publicly bashes him all the time. He even goes to even goes
like outside of his church late at night, he didn't want to get
caught. And he would pray over his church, he would actually
pray over his church, bless him, and everything. See that that's
how we're supposed to show up. We're not to expect. Yeah, we're
not to expect it from mother in law or brother in law or this,
that, whatever. We're not to expect any of that. We're to do
that. And so
You know, um, I think it's, I believe it's Luke six says, you know, if you love those
who love you, what credit is that to you?
Even sinners do that.
You know?
And so, you know, we're to bless those who persecute us, bless those who curse us.
We're to not for evil, insult for insult, but instead blessed that we can have a blessing.
And so we're just, we're just, I think he's just honing you around that.
So cause to you, it's like, look, look at my, look at what they did to me.
That's unjust.
And it's like, yeah, okay.
Right.
That's, that's what the world will do to you.
What do you mean?
Like, it's kind of like, that's like, so what?
Like everyone, everyone experiences that sort of thing.
And so it's, how did you bless them?
How did you, you know, say a prayer for them?
How did you bring them dinner?
How did you, you know, and it's not out of, um, Oh, I have to be a people pleaser.
You know?
Um, the apostle Paul said, I can't be a people pleaser and a servant of Christ.
You're not going to please them.
And so there, there are people in my life that I do things for that I know don't appreciate
it, but that's okay.
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not called to, uh, only do good things to those who will appreciate
it.
I'm not called to do that.
I don't need that appreciation.
It's not a requirement.
So does that help?
It does.
If anything, it just, at least I know that I feel like I'm going in the right direction,
but it's like, I've really gotten to that point where it's like, so I don't get customers.
Thank God.
God's taking care of my husband doing the full time because I, I'm not making anything.
Like if I do make it, I would just ask for tweaks.
I would just ask Lord, what is it, you know, like, I really feel like this is a good one
for you.
I don't need to let go of to move forward.
I think that's a really good one for you.
I think that would be really helpful.
You know, Lord, um, thank you for the wisdom around running my business.
You know, what are, how, how do you look at this?
How should we be doing this?
And just asking for that, cause I, I believe there's just some tweaks and cause he doesn't
want you to just do something forever and not get results, you know, he's, he's wanting
to tweak you into the proper alignment and proper anointing.
Yeah.
Cause I, there was a few things that did come up, like I, I don't always listen, but there
was a part even to the point where I feel like my sponsor knows me better than I know
myself sometimes because we were able to have a really tough talk back and forth where she
even said, I think you're afraid of going out because now people are expecting you to
go out because now that they're starting to see you've been housebound for three years
and they start to see you venturing out more, it now, um, keeps you accountable to keep
going out.
Which part of me, I admit it scares me because that's just like, like, you know, like I know
God's getting the glory from it cause I look forward to when somebody, when somebody says
only God could do that, you know, so I'm like, it just, it's, it is scary a little bit cause
when you're so used to, you know, it's, oh, it's, it's definitely, um, an adventure, but
at the same time it's like nail biting.
Yeah.
Well, I love, I love where your heart is of, Hey, God's going to get the glory.
People say only God could have done that.
Um, so I like that.
And so, you know, that puts, uh, you know, some on us to trust him to go and do that,
that he is with us, that it's not reliant on our strength.
Yeah.
And he's even showing like little pieces of like, like I know God's doing something because
he's even showing like, I've actually confessing more that when I'm almost to the point of
being a doubting Thomas and not sure where God's going to, where he's going to take him.
Bless my husband and I, it's in a different way.
Like, thank you God for like the chicken wire that I needed to finish my garden off.
It's all finished for free.
Like I even don't, when are we going to stop doubting God?
Because he literally takes our needs, but how many times did he admit that he might
show it in a different way, but it's always met, you know?
And so that's right.
Very well said, you know, it amazes me every time one income is paying all the bills.
I still am flabbergasted because it's just like, what?
So when it'd be like God to use this period to grow you where you need to.
grow and, and have you taken care of until you get there.
Yes.
And so that'd be very much like him.
So it's probably all these happy tears are coming.
So, yeah, keep us in the loop.
All right.
Love you guys.
Love you.
All right, Michael.
What's happening.
It's been an interesting six months.
Good.
Um, I guess, uh, about three weeks ago, I was just sort of scrolling
through my social media, YouTube, mostly, and a Jim Rohn video popped
up and it was change your life in six months, and then I watched that.
It was about a half hour.
It's like, okay, this is stuff I can do.
And then two days later, I got another drip from your campaign on
this to set up a meeting and it was six months.
And so I was like, hmm, I think somebody's trying to tell me something.
Nice.
And so here I am.
Uh, I I'm doing, I'm, I'm doing okay.
Uh, I'm making okay.
Money monthly, but I would like to bump that up to be able to leave my job.
Uh, I, I, I like my job.
It's it's done.
It's been a great career.
Uh, I work in it, uh, in higher ed and, uh, there's, there's been a lot of
changes over the last six months in leadership and culture within my
workspace that I'm not terribly comfortable with, and so I really
would like to move on from that.
I'm ready to move on from that.
Uh, and so I, I feel, feel this calling to move forward.
And, uh, so where, where I'm at is I pretty well know who my, who
I'm speaking to as, as a customer.
I, I worked with, uh, diabetic men between 40 and 60, uh, who really have
no idea how to manage their disease.
Um, that's, I mean, that's where I was, you know, probably 20 years ago, uh,
as a, as a 20, 30, something who had no clue as to what, what to do or how to
do it or how to eat or, or any of that.
Um, so I, that, that's who, who I work with.
I've got that nailed down pretty good.
Uh, I'm starting to do more and more video, uh, on this, um, because of, uh,
from you and Mark Harvard, you know, going through, through that stuff, it's
been pretty good transformation for me for that, and I'm just working on
consistency and I don't know that I'm always hitting, hitting the, the, the
mark, speaking to, to those folks that need to hear it.
And so that's, I think that's where I need to tighten things up more.
Can you, where's your main place that you post content?
Uh, YouTube, uh, TikTok and Facebook.
Uh, do you feel like in that order as YouTube, like the primary, is that the
number that's, that's I hit, I hit, I hit YouTube, I hit YouTube because I can do
long form video there, and then I take the long form and turn it into reels and
shorts and, uh, consumable meat, more consumable content on, uh, Facebook,
Instagram, all that Instagram is kind of out there because it's a part of meta,
but it's not something that I pay that close attention to.
Um, I have dropped your YouTube, YouTube link, so I can take a look.
And that was my last job.
I was a database administrator for it.
I, I manage all of the enterprise level software for our community college.
Nice.
I'm trying to get to it.
I was going to make a joke and say, should we call an IT guy?
But never mind.
It's in the chat.
There we go.
All right.
And I've branded myself as diabetic Mike.
OK, let's just take a look.
And how long have you been doing this?
Probably the last nine months, solidly,
or I should say more consistently
than I had been previously.
Yeah.
And do you feel like you have more traction?
Is there more traction?
Let me look at your Facebook.
Is it?
Drop that for you, too.
OK, yeah.
Oops.
I do have a Facebook group that has about 40 members,
30 to 40 members.
I have a personal profile, and I also have a Facebook page
as well.
I post mostly to my page.
To your page?
Oh, is this what you gave me?
Yes.
That's your page.
OK.
I actually have been growing on TikTok,
and I was just able to start doing lives on TikTok.
Yeah, this is my personal page.
Oh, this is?
Yeah.
Randall Enterprises?
Yeah.
Where's the page?
I mean, what it seems like to me is reach.
You know, like you're just not getting a whole lot of reach
here on at least the two things I'm looking at.
So my question, so it does look like you
And so it does look like your shorts typically,
I mean, you got some that didn't do well,
but typically get more views.
Is this?
What's this in order by?
Latest.
OK.
So it looks like you're starting to get more views on shorts.
Right.
More than not.
So the question is, so one, are you in the 1K challenge?
You're probably not, I would think.
I am not.
Yeah.
So in the 1K challenge I shared today,
and I think this will really help you.
Let me stop the share.
OK.
So I shared the five steps to have a kick butt brand.
OK.
And so the first, let me give you the three questions,
which is part one of it.
So the three questions are, who do you help?
How do you help them?
Why should they listen to you?
So I feel like we got number one and number three, right?
Who do you help?
You help people like you.
yourself, but you don't say it on your channels that you help a certain age group manage their
diabetes. I didn't see that, you know, I don't know that that's that important or not, but
but I feel like we know you're one in three, right? So who do you help? You help people
manage their diabetes. Why should they listen to you? Because you had to learn that and you did,
right? What I don't know is how do you help them? And how do you help them?
You want to have a powerful answer to that. You want to have a not through this essential oil
or through this shampoo or through this, you know, whatever. It's not a product for sale.
It's a process, a system, a blueprint, a set of steps. It's some kind of, you know, I have a,
you know, who do you help? I help baby boomers who started investing too late in life grow their
wealth. I have a seven-step process that regardless of how much is in your money bank,
you can quadruple it over the next three years, right? Whatever, right? Why should listen to me?
Because that's what I did. And so it's, you know, how do you help them needs to be some kind of
powerful sounding thing that if the who hears the how it's almost irresistible.
And so, you know, some examples, you know, like Todd Brown is a very,
very big time marketer. He has an E5 method, right? You know, Weight Watchers has their point
system, you know, and, and so it's like, what that, how do I help them becomes a major attractor
and it also helps to guide you. Okay. And so, so let's need to be able to answer that. Do you,
do you feel like you have an answer to that? I do. Which is what?
I have a lifestyle management program that I found that helped me. And it not only helps you
reduce your stabilize your diabetes, but it helps you lose weight. If that's what you want to do.
And it keeps you, it takes the guesswork out of having to figure out what I'm going to eat next.
So figure out a number to put in there. I have a seven step lifestyle management system.
It instantly upgrades it. It instantly makes it like, Oh, I can do seven steps.
And so like, figure out how many steps are critical. Five steps, 21 steps, 11 steps,
seven, you know, so I would have some kind of number in there and I would be saying that all
the time so that people get used to asking you. All right. And so, you know, one of the questions
that would be, you know, let, let's just watch one.
Share my screen and share the sound. All right. So let's, let's just take a look at what's one.
Okay. This one, please. When I started doing that, it really was a game changer for me.
So I have again, my lifestyle, diabetic lifestyle change program that I got on
really helped with that. It's really the backbone of that program. As it taught,
you have a higher amount of protein, lower amount of carb and a good blend of good fats
that really helped me. So I found stuff that is packed is plant-based organically grown.
The plants were going to be grown seed to supplement that they take care of all of that.
They can tell you from the lot number on the packaging, what plants were grown on what farms
that they own that are organically certified. And they can even tell you the genetics of the
plant. They track it that much. They're phenomenal. When I started doing that,
it really was a game changer. Okay. So that was, that was the video.
That was the video. Okay. Are you surprised by the sound?
I have a little bit, it didn't sound like that in post-production.
So, yeah, because I mean, honestly, it's, it's, it's surprising. I mean, I don't know the length
of duration that people watched, but most people won't watch a video that has us in the background.
Yeah. And so, you know, and I suspect now I could be wrong. I suspect that you did a longer video
and you probably use some kind of AI thing to strip out some shorts.
Yes. Yeah. And so a lot of times when we do that, it's not smart enough
to break it out at an opportune time. It just kind of breaks it out at whatever time.
Okay, no call to action. That's a humongous deal. So like for you, and anyone who's trying to grow
and you're getting this few views, calls to action are literally your lifeblood. And so
I would, I have, I do not trust AI to make shorts of my stuff. I have, I have human beings that
either I create the short myself, and here's, here's, here's the easiest, easy way that I do
it. Okay. So let me show you. Okay. I'll show you a real world example. Okay. So share. So this is,
here's some notes from one of the lives I did the other morning. God can convert
discipline into delight. And, and by the way, you know, I'll plug this and I'll take this right,
right. I did, but I'll do it again for you guys. So I went to chat GBT and I said, make more
persuasive title for that. Okay. So we'll, we'll let it run while we're talking.
And so these were my notes. My notes are directly from a Graham cook teaching it's his, you know,
it's his content. And and so I just went through my notes and organized them in, in a manner.
There's a verse that I read and then I start at, you know, different things. And then anytime I do
one of these, I pick a stance. Okay. And I, and I pick I pick a takeaway and I do at least one
real from this one YouTube short, if you want to use that language. And so so I do a live,
it's usually 20 to 30 minutes and that live streams on YouTube Instagram, LinkedIn,
Facebook profile and Facebook page. And so I do that. And then I look at my notes
and I find one real to do. That'll be less than one minute. And so it's an on purpose real,
it'll have a call to action and it's one major point. And so actually, I don't know what I
called it. Let me see if it's even, it might not be up. Let me just look.
Let me stop the share again, because I need to share if we're, if we're gonna,
that would be neat if I find that exact one. I just don't know if they've uploaded it yet.
Okay, let me share the sound. Okay. BAP shorts.
I probably don't. Okay. Well, okay, this one. Well, actually, I could find this.
Okay, look. All right. So the enemy can't defeat you, he can only deceive you.
Okay, so this is notes, again, from Graham cook. This was from a live that I did.
And then one of the lines is when you believe a lie, you empower the liar. So I made
this real. Let's see if we can watch it.
Come on, just play. When you believe a lie, you empower the liar. Satan can't defeat you.
If you've accepted Christ, then you then Christ abides in you and you abide in Christ and he
cannot defeat you. There's no chance. It's not even a fight. But what the devil can do
is get you to believe lies about your identity, who you are, and your integrity.
And so stop believing any lies about yourself. You're not confused, overwhelmed, disappointed.
You're not frustrated. You're not weak and powerless. See who you are in Christ, and you'll
be able to easily overcome all of those lies. Speak to yourself more than you listen to yourself.
Now, who helped me the most with understanding this is my mentor, Graham cook. If you'd like
a five day free trial to his app with over 600 trainings, drop the number five.
See, you can tell when you believe a lie, you empower the
liar, right, Satan. Okay, stop. That's on purpose. Notice the
sound, the call to action, right. And I'm not saying
that's perfect. You know, I mean, you know, you know, I
don't I've had to rebuild my YouTube it, you know, whatever,
long story. But, you know, but like, on purpose, it's a clear
point, good sound, CTA. And and so, you know, I just want you to
get that because you you want it. I think a lot of people they
they get good at okay, I uploaded my video, like I'm
doing the thing. But if the sound is bad, if there's no
call to action, like you're greatly diminishing what could
even possibly happen? Does that does that make sense? It does.
Yes. And so so let me let's just break down the so how to have a
kick butt brand, figure out the three answers. Who do I help?
How do I help them? Why should I listen to you? And it sounds
like you're, you know, you pretty much got that figured
out, I would just figure out a number. I have a seven step
lifestyle solution. So your example of a short might be, you
know, you know, one of the steps of a seven step lifestyle
solution is for you to not eat tomatoes or something, whatever.
Right. And and so and then at the end, say, Hey, I hope this
was helpful. Drop me a comment, make sure you subscribe. And if
you want those other six steps, just let me know in the
comments. Okay, so very quick, very to the point, structured.
But to have a kick butt brand, you forgot the three answers.
You update all your social media profiles to reflect that you go
all in. You look for collaboration opportunities with
similar people, who else out there is doing things for people
with diabetes, I would try to do interviews with them, I would
try to, you know, do a book review. You know, if a new if a
new book came out on diabetes management, you know, I would
you look at how Gary Vaynerchuk grew his brand, he grew his
brand, by reviewing wine, Wine Library TV, you know, he would
take a drink, oh, this is terrible. This is the worst wine
I've ever tried. And this one, this one's pretty good. You
know, it's not too bad. And you know, he built it to a $60
million a year, you know, wine company, and then he built to
where he is now, right, by understanding, you know, how to
serve people and what people wanted and having and having
some personality. He, you know, he turned people on to him, and
he's got a humongous empire now. And then manage your routines, I
feel like you're good with routine. I feel like you're
consistent guy, I would imagine. And so you're probably you're
probably good there. You're probably even good with
eliminating distractions. It's just the tweak of let me let me
have my videos on point, as succinct as possible. Call to
actions, tell them, I'm going to tell them what I want them to
do. And I think you'll see a big difference. I really do.
Okay, I will do that this week.
So Lauren, let me clarify. So Lauren, I did not pull that
short from that live. I pulled that short from my notes from
the live. So I actually so that short, although I covered what's
in that short in this live, there, it's not part of it. I
actually shot that separately. So what I did was I did the
live, shut down the live, recorded the short, it took a
minute, you know, and that's typically what what I would do
now this week is a little wonky, because I got the one k
challenge. So you know, that's 90 minutes of my day every day
for five days. And so I'm a little thrown off this week. But
on normal weeks, I go live Monday through Friday 9am I do
a live and then I do at least one short from that live.
Sometimes I get two, but usually at least one short and we rock
it out. So cool, Tony.
Yeah, just kind of piggybacking on that, that what watching you
guys discuss that had me with give a quick question I kind of
build I'm trying to build in much the same way through social
media. So the first quick question would be is so when I
make a video, is there any drawbacks that you could see of
me putting that video on all my platforms, like Instagram,
Facebook, YouTube, shorts, tick tock? Like just if I anytime I
make a short video? Is there any do you see? Am I?
I don't think so.
up. Okay. And then, and then just one other quick question,
and we typically do, I don't, yeah, I don't do much on Tick
Tock anymore. Not, not that I'm suggesting that no one else
does, because a lot of people, you know, take off on it. But,
but yeah, I, I mean, we do, we take the same short and post it
everywhere.
Okay, awesome. And then the other thing is just as part of
that. How do I help? One of my thing is in, in three easy
steps. Is that too generic? Or is that like a good?
Well, give me give me what is it? Let me hear the thing.
Yeah, I guess it's just that I'm, I'm putting that together.
The three easy steps is what I'm working on. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. So yeah, I'm still putting that together.
The all the only number you want to avoid is the number one, you
want to avoid, I have one step that will completely change your
life. Because what will happen is people say, well, what's the
step? And you're like, well, you know, opt in for more
information, you know, as soon as you get multiple, it's kind
of okay with people that that they'll ask for the steps versus
will tell me the one step. And so this is why like, so if I was
selling makeup, right? I wouldn't. So if I if I've told
this to a few people, and it just works like crazy. So if
someone's like doing makeup, right, and they're instead of
saying, hey, reach out to me in the comments for what lipstick I
use. Like I would like that's not very effective. What you
what you should say, if you're trying to sell those kind of
things, is you should say, you know, hey, and I have five
products that I completely rely on. And so reach out to me, I'm
happy to share those five. That just, it's just sounds like, oh,
that makes more sense that they're going to like not rattle
them off. But just, you know, tell me, when you say tell me,
I'll tell you this lipstick, I'm not gonna show you hide these,
right? When you when you're not, you know, it's just, it's just
like, well, why don't they just tell us? Clearly, this is a
sales thing, they're trying to sell me something. But when you
say, hey, I'll share with my my whole routine, I got five
different things I rely on, you're more likely to get
engagement, and you're more likely for people to ask for
that thing. And and I've, I think one of the most powerful
things that you can do is, if I was selling makeup, I would, I
would pick not I would purposely use some makeup that wasn't my
company's. So I would pick a blush or whatever these things
are. And I would use like, something that might be either
controversial, or really popular, and say, hey, here's
one that I'm trying out right now. It's by L'Oreal, and blah,
blah, blah. And by the way, I have four other products I
really rely on. And so because then it lowers the defenses of
Oh, there, maybe they're not just trying to sell me. Maybe
they're just sharing with me their actual routine, because
clearly, she doesn't sell L'Oreal, she's not a L'Oreal
rep. And so like, I'm trying to attract as many people as
possible. And I'll let my funnels and filters and
engagement, you know, filter them out. And so like, three
steps, you can't go wrong with that.
Yeah, because I was like, like, I want to make it I don't want
to make it so like, yeah, one is obviously a bad idea. And I
didn't also want to like, didn't want to make it like too
belaboring, either, like, oh, here's 10 things. But maybe
that's not too much. Like, I was worried, like, am I? Am I making
too big of an ask? With like, oh,
I think so. It depends on the complexity of the problem. You
know, like, Jack Trout, now Reese wrote a great book called
the 2222 or 21. I forget. Like 2222 immutable laws of
branding. Great title. They've sold millions of copies. And
it's a great book to the 21 or 22. I forget. You know, I think
Maxwell has done things like that 21 laws of leadership and
you know, things like that. And so it depends on the complexity
of the problem of what you're what you're solving. So, you
know, and it's going to turn on different people, too. So I
don't, I don't, I wouldn't worry so much about the number and how
low it is, as long as it's not one. But is it doesn't really
cover it? You know, does it really cover what needs to be
covered?
Okay, that makes sense. Thank you.
Yeah, welcome. Welcome. Welcome. Welcome. Very nice. All right.
Well, some of you don't realize, but we actually started this at
11am. And and so I hope that you've
gotten some great value from this. We'll make the replay available, obviously.
I'm hopping on a brilliant school of leadership training here shortly with my good friends,
Graham, Cook, and Dion, and I'm excited for that. And so let me pray us out. And so,
Father, we're just so grateful for you. Father, thank you for your presence.
