Well, here it is, Raising Royalty Part 3 and I am really delighted to be on here with you
guys and it's exciting to have Zee or Zania Lansdowne jumping on board with us again tonight
which is going to be fantastic.
So, I hope you guys are all doing real well, I'll be really enjoying this series and taking
a lot out of it and getting great feedback and great testimonies already from you guys.
So, the first thing that we're going to do in this session is go over homework from yesterday.
So, yesterday's homework was very, very good.
I really love that Jewish system of the five jars.
The five jars system is so powerful and I know that learning about the five jars system
is actually what changed the game on finances for our family, so little by little.
And just as a recap, the five jars system is an ancient Jewish system of how they do
their finances that they've taken from their biblical interpretation and they've developed
a phenomenal system for how to steward their finances which is amazing.
So, the homework from yesterday's session was how do you do your finances?
The Jewish system is 10% gets tithed, 10% goes to offering, 10% gets saved, 20% gets
invested and you live off 50%.
So, the homework was how do you do it, like how does your finances work, how much of a
percentage do you tithe, do you do for offering, do you do for savings, investing and how much
do you live off?
The average Kiwi lives off 113% which is a pretty normal dynamic in the West.
We actually live off more than our income which is why so many people are going into
debt and why so many people are going backwards financially.
But tonight we have got Zee Lansdowne and so as soon as I see Zee on here, we will get
into it which is exciting and I want to share the memory verse that I'm doing with my kids.
I don't know if you guys do memory verses with your kids but I do memory verses with
my kids and once they can do it perfectly, I give them a prize and so because we're launching
a new business thing with our kids at the moment, I've got a very cool memory verse
that I'm doing with them which is Proverbs 24 14 and this is awesome in that whole mindset
of raising royalty because again Proverbs is written by Solomon who was probably the
wealthiest king that we see in the Bible and one of the reasons why he was so wealthy is
because of his association with wisdom.
Remember when God asked Solomon what's the one thing that you want, Solomon said give
me wisdom to be able to lead your people, give me wisdom to be able to rule over your
people the way that I'm supposed to rule over your people and Proverbs 24 14 what that
says is the wealth of the wise is their crown.
The wealth of the wise is their crown, that basically means that wisdom, if your system
is founded on wisdom, it's going to actually produce abundance so tonight we're going to
be looking at systems that actually are really working for people and we're going to look
at and explore a number of different ways that you could earn an extra 10k a month.
Now some of these systems are not systems that I'd recommend, it's just a whole bunch
of different ways that you could do it and so we're going to check that out, I'm just
going to invite Zee into this convo which is going to be awesome so I'm going to invite
her on in a second and so it just takes a little bit of tweaking with the tech so here
we go, pressing that button, we're adding Zee, we're going to bring Zee on and I've
got some exciting questions for Zee because she is a real legend at this, I have just
suddenly realized that I need to get my headphones on and they're right here, so boom, headphones
Zee is being added in and yeah so right now what we're going to be doing is going to be
interviewing Zee on some handy ways that she knows about that people could add an extra
10k into their income on a monthly basis so now one option you could do right which
I don't recommend this but one option if you wanted to add an extra 10k into your
or income on a monthly basis,
let's say that you're earning on average.
Hey, there's Zee.
Look at you, beautiful.
Good to see you.
Welcome, welcome.
I feel very welcome.
Oh, and look, there's your beautiful sea views,
which I love so much.
Hey.
Yes.
It's very dirty.
Well, everyone, it's just a real pleasure to have Zee,
and so honored that you can be with us.
And I wanna do an interview with Zee tonight.
And Zee, what I wanna ask you is some practical ways,
because we've been talking about this process so far.
We've talked about people,
about the pain that poverty actually brings.
And I know that pain just watching my own father
nearly work himself to death,
literally nearly died,
working so many hours just to provide for us.
And so we've talked about that pain and the frustration
that we all feel when we're doing our best,
but we're going backwards.
And we've talked about some very cool systems.
And in the last session,
we talked about the Jewish principles, the five jars,
which is an amazing system of tithing 10%,
putting 10% in offerings, 10% in savings,
investing 20% and living a 50%.
So what I wanna check out with you,
because I've enjoyed this process and this journey together,
what are some systems,
some ways that people could actually add an extra 10K a month
into the income stream?
And then after we've answered that,
and we've talked about that a little bit,
I wanna ask you as well about limiting beliefs
of why people would automatically shut down and think,
oh, no, because I know that probably some people
even right now are thinking,
extra 10K a month, that's not even possible,
probably starting to shut down and disengage.
Oh, I couldn't do that.
But I know you're an ace at tracking down life.
So what are your thoughts on extra ways
people could add 10K a month into their system?
Well, I love that you mentioned that
because as soon as you said 10K,
people would have been like, why 10K?
Like, I can't make 10K.
But you know, it's so true.
But the thing is, it takes just as much energy
to make 1K as it does 10K,
depending on the system that you have, right?
Yeah, totally.
Because if you're in, sorry, you go.
Well, I was just thinking, okay, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go.
I was just thinking that, yeah, if your system,
like the system that you use,
the mindset that you use is like, okay,
to make 10K extra, if you got paid $50 an hour,
then you're thinking, okay,
so I could make 10K, an extra 10K this week
if I work an extra 200, sorry, this month,
if I work an extra 200 hours this month,
which is like an extra 50 hours a week.
Now that is like, if your mind's ticking like that,
that this is not like, this is not possible.
Yeah, exactly.
And so, yeah, that is what you could do.
You could hustle, grind, and burn yourself out
doing more hours, being away from your family more,
kind of, yeah, that's, I mean,
that's what half of our world's doing, right?
And-
Yeah, totally, overtime, baby.
It's, it's overtime, and yeah.
Ah.
So, okay, if we're not going down the road
of overtime and extra hustle, let's-
Yeah, the other option is,
the other option is, is, wait,
is that lipstick on my teeth?
I can't tell, because I just see a finger.
I think your teeth are looking great.
The little finger tip.
Yeah, yeah, I'm not offended.
No, your teeth are banging.
Sorry, I'm gonna stop mucking around.
Okay, so what you could do is you could learn
how to use the internet, where there is millions of people,
and you could get the, spend less hours getting more money
because your-
Okay.
Your product or your service is on,
with more eyes, with, you know,
more people wanting your product
and more people wanting your service at the same time.
Yeah.
So that's, that's an option.
Yeah, absolutely.
Is that what you're asking me?
Yeah, totally.
Now, okay, what about some dumb ideas?
What are some other dumb ideas,
some things that we try to do in the attempt to,
because I know for myself, there's so many systems,
so many things that we try, but they fail, right?
And people are like, oh yeah, this is gonna be awesome,
but it is not gonna be awesome.
What about some, like, some ways that are just gonna like,
maybe you could save some people the hassle
of trying to go down a road
that's probably gonna be a.
Can I talk about something that I did, which was network marketing?
That would be awesome.
I'd love to hear that.
Okay.
So I loved network marketing.
It taught me a lot.
It taught me about rising into my leadership and the whole networking and I love people
and I was selling stuff that I liked, but I had to convince people that they needed
it.
It just got tiring.
I had to convince people that they needed it.
I had to then convince them that my product was actually the best in the market and then
I had to keep on convincing them to keep on buying it.
And then, so the way I made a fair bit of money, like I got a $20,000 bonus.
That was awesome.
Yeah.
And I was working really, really hard to get that and it showed me that like, yeah, if
I have a goal, I can go after it.
It showed me something inside of me.
But then I found out afterwards that you lose your rank if you don't keep those numbers
up the next month and then you lose your bonus and I'm like, what?
And like now, I'm not doing that because it was just like, when you look at the amount
of money that you're making and the hustle and grind and the coffee shop and the meetings
and the weekends and the nights and the constantly on the computer, it wasn't like automated.
It was exactly the same as working 9 to 5, 8 to 7, you know?
Yeah, totally.
Well, there's hidden cost, isn't there?
I know like even for my brother and he might actually be watching this, but I was just
talking to him the other day and there's hidden cost because he's got a really good salary.
He's worked a long time, studied a long time to get this really good salary.
But there's hidden cost of that this salary that he's on has a really high demand and
then also there's like actually like a real dependency on there.
He knows that he couldn't get that type of salary nearly anywhere else in the area that
he lives.
So there's like a dependency on actually holding the job.
So in all these things, there's lots of hidden cost, but so for you, I know you've been doing
really well in some of your other projects, but let me know, like how about a system that
you've seen out of all that you've done, what's probably the best thing that you've seen to
that gives people the ability to make an extra 10k a month?
Personally, like what I'm doing now?
Yeah, what's the best system and for you, like obviously network marketing, you could
make some money out of it, but you kicked it to the curb because that wasn't your vibe.
What's your vibe?
What's working for you?
What would be something that you think is a good option for people?
Okay, money wise, a really good option is to have something that is high commission.
So you're doing less work, which means less, you're working less time, which time is valuable.
So a high commission offer, so let's say you have a product that you would be getting
$1,000 commission and in a month, you only have to sell 10 of those or a $2,000 commission
product.
So that $2,000 commission product could be a product or it could be a service like coaching
or you're teaching something or a high commission product and then you only have to sell five
of them a month.
So it is not like that hassle and grind, is it?
Yeah, beautiful.
And this is a whole area that's exploding right now and it's probably a new area for
a lot of people just learning that there's so many products that businesses are trying
to sell online at the moment and they might be expensive products, which means there's
lots of opportunity for a big commission, so high ticket commission.
What was a classic commission for you in the network marketing?
It's just like, you know, the $20 to $50 at a time, so it's like, it's just not cool.
Yeah, so you're talking, you know, like $200 to $500 sales a month to try and hit $10K
or to try and get your bonuses.
Yeah.
So, I mean, this whole idea of raising royalty and what I'm talking about now and the ideas
that I'm looking at for people because, you know, I grew up poor, I watched my own dad
nearly work himself.
death through this through this dynamic and and in one stage it was just working for other people
where he would be doing like regularly 100 hours a week which is crazy and uh and then and then he
transitioned from that and worked in uh family business which um he hustled he grind and like
he worked so hard that i literally i watched him nearly die and i watched him get really sick as a
result of how many hours he was doing i watched like the health just took him so long to regain
his health and it really struggled through that time um and so i tried you know i tried to like
get out of that system like get out of that mold and so i've tried like i've messed around with
other business product projects and i've been scammed and i've been you know ripped off a
bunch of times and i've made bad investments like i lost not so long ago i just lost 15 000 just in
one investment um it all looks good it all looks good but boom they got scammed so i've made some
bad decisions and then uh and then i've done the thing as well where you work 100 hours a week to
hustle and so much of it to be honest for me the motivation is family ministry like for me the
motivation is not i just want wealth for myself personally but i want i want to see my family
crushing i don't want to see the generational cycle perpetuate uh and i want to reach more
people i want to impact lives and so so i've been looking for something that's actually going to
empower me in ministry and it's been great you know because you have that option as well all
right just to just to give up like oh man i've tried so many things i just want to i'm just
going to give up now so it's a massive burden for parents too i think dads feel this father's
husbands feel this so much like i know all my mates when i took them they're so like this feel
like oh my gosh we have to provide there's that instinct of i'm i'm supposed to be the provider
even if my wife's not putting the pressure on and sometimes if we have if things are like
like if in the past i know for sure not so much now but in the past when i wasn't hitting the like
i really was not providing the way that i was wanting to my wife really started to feel at
them when we were literally in poverty but having gone through that process and actually starting to
find some things that are working this whole thing that you're talking about now high ticket
commission so it's awesome for people who don't have a product to sell right like because right
like that's that i think is a place where so many people get stuck in this whole like i have to set
up a business and i have to like create my own products but that's where there's a big lie
because you don't you can actually just sell other people's products for high ticket commission so
oh you're saying being an affiliate yeah like an affiliate market for someone yep um what are
stories that you've got that uh people are actually winning and doing this okay so i have a lot of
friends that have been burnt by network marketing um and i've done lots of interviews on it because
i love how i love sharing other people's stories because yeah because you know i've also coached
people so i'm coaching people into living their dreams and living their purpose and living their
you know god-given calling and it all needs money right so i'm trying to help people do the right
money and i and so i want to save people from that where they're they end up hustling and grinding
and not getting the money that they need and then they're spending all their time
away from their dreams anyway so you actually run out of energy yeah so then you can't live in your
purpose in your message yeah come on um so the stories i of the people in my are you talking
about my into the people i interview yeah people you interview friends that you know that are doing
this whole affiliate marketing uh deal how is it going for them have you got some some stories of
people winning because this is the big thing the big question that i have whenever i'm going into
things because i've been burnt so many times is uh how can i actually trust how can i trust this
whole idea is this not just another scam is there something reputable where people actually get
results that you can actually relax and trust and actually go okay right well this is a good option
yeah okay so
i could share a million interviews with and a million no not a million but lots of stories
um of yeah like i did one of the like uh she she's either 55 or 60 this woman and she was working in
a old folks home and then decided like man what am i doing like i don't want to just spend my life
looking after old people oh because she asked this old person like
These old people, they have all these regrets that they're not living their life, and she's
like, oh, that's what I'm doing right now.
So anyway, she found our business and learned about the high-ticket offer and learned how
to use the internet, some specific tools on our platform.
And she was like, she didn't even have Facebook, so she didn't know nothing.
And within eight months, she retired herself from that job and is earning more than she
did at that boring job.
So she's able to travel.
She can do it whenever she wants.
She was in Queenstown with us.
She's like an adventurous old lady.
Yes, I know a few of those, and they are a lot of fun.
And then you've got my friend Sarah who, she was in network marketing doing weight
loss products, small ticket, too many nights out, just didn't really enjoy the tribe anyway.
Found what we found, and she retired her husband within three months.
They basically do their work once the kids are asleep, so they just do family time all
the time.
They take photos, and they do all their stuff, and now they also have just designed a camper
van and are going to travel around Australia.
Oh, come on.
But I've interviewed Ellie, who like, she earns four times more, in her first year,
she earned four times more than in her corporate job.
You've got another couple that, they were already earning six figures in their coaching
business, which is still high ticket value, but they were able to ten times their income
within the, it was definitely within the first year, but yeah, and they've got a baby now.
So they were able to use the internet to keep rolling, but our system is awesome because
it's automated, so you're not always having to be there, it's still working for you, it's
still training people.
Totally.
I don't know how much you've shared.
Sorry, I may have missed it.
No, no, no.
That's beautiful.
That's perfect, what you're sharing.
And I guess, for those that are tracking with us in the Raising Royalty program, I want
to give you guys some really good training, some really good insights, some biblical perspectives,
but I also want to give you some, like, don't do this, of things that have failed, and things
that are going to burn you out.
So I would say, like, don't be like my dad, and don't do some things that I've done, where
you're just working a hundred hours a week, like, actually, there's not much time left
after that, there's not much energy left after that.
Don't do that.
There's other ways, there's easy ways, there's more beneficial ways for you and your family.
And I think as well, like, here's one of the things, right, that when I've talked with
parents, I've talked with my friends, they're just like, look, I would love to set my kid
up with a business, that would be awesome.
And then just the stunned face, like, but what?
Like, there's just not, like, there's not an awareness, there's like, what, what, and
I don't know anyone that's talking about the whole idea of how to set your kids up with
a business, or set your kids up, because this is the thing, that royalty is always doing
it.
I think that that's probably one of the reasons why royalty and the upper class, you know,
like, maintain that, is because they are financially savvy, they're always talking about it, and
they actually do a huge amount of work, but I think this is a crazy question, like, where
can I do something that's, like, set up a business for my kids?
And I know, when we talk about setting up a business, like, just, we just are really
lacking in good ideas, and so that's why I love this whole idea, and so, I mean, well,
I've jumped on board with what you're doing too, but the whole idea of actually finding
something, now, I just want to say to everyone as well, there are so many options, so go
out there and check some things out, there's so many different ways that you could do that,
that you could create an income online.
It's not the only thing, but if you want, with your kids, right, if your kids have got
only a small amount of money to invest, then you could, you could just, you could, like,
I guess, just for myself, what I'm doing with my family, I've got our kids involved
in a program, in a business program, where it doesn't really cost them much, and so
then they can actually, with us, we set the system up for them so that they can actually
earn high-ticket commissions, because I don't have time for them to actually create a business.
where we're like, okay, selling glasses or something.
We were creating things like pens.
I don't have the time on the side to create products.
That's what I'm saying,
I don't have the time to create products.
So what I'm doing with my kids is showing them,
you don't have to create products
because this is where so many parents get stuck.
They're trying to come up with brand new business ideas,
trying to reinvent the wheel.
And that is so crazy expensive
to try and actually reinvent the wheel.
And that's what I'm trying to suggest to people
is actually don't try and reinvent the wheel
because there's already plenty of wheels out there.
There's already plenty of products out there
that you can actually jump on board.
And the companies that are creating these products
will really, really appreciate it
if you can just sell their products for them,
which means that so much of the,
they'll just give you all the infrastructure.
And so that's what I love.
And that's why I'm really grateful to you.
I think maybe just one thing
that I wanted to share with people as well is,
like I don't want this to sound real markety,
if that's a word,
but for those that are out there and wondering,
like, okay, well, how did you hear about that?
I actually heard about it from Z.
It's one of the reasons why I've got her on board
just to just share some of the interviews with us
because I just really,
she's just someone that I can trust.
And it's, like I said,
I've been through a whole bunch of things
that sucked and so I just walked away from them.
I didn't go on board with them.
But with the platform that Z's talking about,
it gives you ability to earn a residual income.
But let's move on from that.
I'll talk more with you guys about those options later.
If you've got questions, you can drop them in.
I'm gonna talk more about them going forward
in some of the sessions going forward.
Just to let you guys know,
I just wanted to chuck out there,
just to jam in that, like mess with that paradigm,
to earn an extra $10,000 a month,
you don't have to go out and work 200 hours a week.
You don't have to start a brand new business
that you actually have to borrow $100,000
or something like that.
You don't have to do that to get started.
You don't have to sell low-ticket items
and burn yourself out.
Look for an opportunity
where someone's selling high-ticket items
where you can make $1,000 or $2,000 a commission,
and then, if you're making $2,000 a commission,
you really don't have to do that much.
Five sales a month, and you've hit 10K.
So that's one option.
But, I don't know if that's good.
Oh, can I share something from that?
Actually, when we were in Queenstown,
one of our mentors said,
hey, let's have a competition,
just to see what we can do.
Whoever makes the most money in the next 24 hours
in our business wins.
And people were making,
and it was so cool.
People were making two and a half.
Like, I made either two and a half or 5,000.
I forgot now.
Someone made 12,000.
It's just like, when you,
and it showed you,
like, when you actually use your brain
and when you've got a system
and you don't care about fear,
then you've got that.
But, also, I want to share
is that, here's the thing.
I'm like a creative person.
I love clothes.
So, I could easily,
I love clothes.
It's like your expression, you know?
Like, I love jewelry and whatever.
It's my creative expression.
So, I love, like,
clothes that I love, I love, right?
I'm like, at some point,
I would have been like,
man, I wish I could sew
because I could make this into a business, you know?
But it's like, well, actually,
why don't I do,
have a business where it's, like,
easier than making a clothes brand?
Because that's a lot of work.
Even Shark Tank will say,
do not go into clothes.
But, or, I could have an online business
that makes lots of money
and buy the clothes that I want
instead of trying to make up a clothes brand.
Does that make sense?
It's like, sometimes we go around,
like, around and around.
Like, I used to always try,
because I love travel,
and I used to always try to think,
like, what kind of business could I do?
Like, try to be a flight attendant
so I could travel more.
But I'm too short to reach the top.
They actually denied me
because I'm too short.
Um, yes.
But, or, I can have an online,
it's very rude,
or I have an online business
where you can travel,
do missions, adventures,
whenever you want at the same time.
And it's, this is the thing
with raising royalty, all right?
Like, raising royalty,
the mindsets of royalty,
they're not putting in,
they're not putting the idea
in the kid's head
that they need to go out there
and get a job.
And if you're watching,
and you're like,
is he trying to put?
an idea in my head?
Yeah, I'm absolutely trying to put an idea in your head.
You know, the whole, like this whole raising royalty training
is about trying to put ideas in your head.
And one of the key ideas that I want to put in your head
is that you're far better off with a system
that can make money while you sleep
than having to get a job.
Like, that's how royalty thinks.
They're like, royalty's always looking for a better system.
They're not looking for a higher paid job.
They look for a better system
because it's the system that provides the finances for them
so that they're earning money while they're sleeping.
And then they can give all their energy,
all their passion, all their heart.
They can live wholeheartedly,
ruling and reigning over their kingdom.
And so that's what I love about
what Z's talking about is better systems.
So if you're raising royalty
and you're doing a great job with your kids
of actually raising royalty,
then what you're doing is you're putting in their head
the idea that there's better systems.
And you don't just put the idea in there.
Like, with my kids, I don't tease them.
I don't tease them with that idea.
I'm like, okay, guys, we can make money while we sleep.
And they're like, what?
And I'm like, I talk to our kids
and I'm like, we're gonna take this money
and we're gonna make it grow.
And so they keep on thinking,
oh, we're gonna go out and plant it in the garden.
And they keep on trying to take their money
and plant it in the garden.
This is the money that we're gonna make grow
when I'm talking to them about their investments.
And Zoe's always like, we're gonna plant it,
we're gonna plant it, we're gonna have a money tree.
I'm like, kind of, kind of.
And so I just wanna say that it's really about systems,
but what stops people in this process?
And other than just the fear of scams
and the fear of this,
but what are the beliefs or what are the mindsets
that you just think hold people back
and keep people trapped in the nine to five mindset?
Dun, dun, dun.
Without saying being trapped in the nine to five mindset,
what holds people back?
Yeah, limiting beliefs.
What holds, limiting,
let's go with like, what holds people back?
Yeah.
Because there's you, there's you,
and then there's often,
because this is what I've been coming across lately
with either clients, with people in my business,
it's like knowing so,
like knowing so well that they wanna do it,
or knowing so well that they've like,
God's led them to this
or they've been following the trail,
and then it's just fear.
You know, fear will come up.
Is this a scam?
Can I do this?
I'm not smart.
But then there's this other thing
of having to ask the spouse,
which a lot of people do.
Yeah.
But then sometimes people were scared to ask the partner.
Sometimes the partner's,
the partner's fears or other things
stop them from moving,
but it's like,
I think you've just gotta do like the real homework
instead of like actually,
instead of closing it,
like shutting it down because of the fear
or I can't do this,
like actually dive in.
That's why I love our platform
because you've got 14 days risk-free
to see what we have available.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you can actually see that anyone can do it,
but limiting beliefs.
I can't do this.
What will people think?
That's a massive thing.
But if you're thinking what will people think,
how else is that showing up in other areas of your life?
If you're letting your partner stop you
from stepping into something new
or something that you feel is like your next best step,
how else is that showing up in other areas of your life
where you're letting them stop you
from moving into your God-given calling or dream
or getting out of mediocre small living?
Yeah.
Does that make sense?
Yeah, totally, totally.
Only you know your own limiting belief,
but that's probably one of the best habits ever to have
is actually being the best listener
to what's going on on the inside,
like your internal talk.
Have you got a story of catching yourself out ever
on some type of belief that was holding you back
from really stepping into a great opportunity?
Probably the most, like right now,
what I can think of the most,
because I talk about it a lot,
is when my life changed is when I,
because I remember this time where I was like,
felt like I was like waiting.
for my husband, like trying to be like with my husband.
What are you passionate about?
What do you want to do?
All this kind of stuff,
because that's just naturally me as a coach anyway.
And then I realized like I was waiting
for him to tell me what he wanted to do.
And I remember this day when I just got on my knees,
like it was more in my heart, like got on my knees,
like God, you know what?
I surrender, like Ross can be passionate
about saying when he wants,
but I've got to surrender, like at the end of my life,
I'm accountable for my life, not my husband's.
So every day I've got to follow
what you're calling me to do.
I've got to step into the best version of me.
I've got to live in my purpose
and my gifts and talents and my message and not wait.
So that's been the biggest moment of my life
when I said that.
And from that, that's when God moves, you know?
That's when stuff happens
without you trying to make stuff happen.
So that is deciding for yourself,
I need to follow where God's leading me.
Yeah, beautiful.
That's fantastic.
So God's leading you to,
like I love that you're doing this, Benji,
because there's not many people that,
like you're leading the way for so many
and you've had to fight your own fears
and become who you are to lead us all
into becoming better parents for our kids, you know?
To set them up to have a freedom lifestyle.
It's not just about us, it's about.
Yeah.
So, yeah, you tell us.
Yeah, yeah, actually, this is a good thing.
That's a good point because I've been,
if you've been tracking with some of the other training
that I've done, like recently I've done another training
called the Seven Sacred Pathways to Intimacy,
which is all about creating the best marriage,
which is so funny because like,
I was talking about all the nitty gritty
in our relationship and my wife and I,
we both got in and we got real vulnerable.
And yes, of course, that means that I'm talking about sex
and I'm talking about like the challenges of sex.
Actually, I think you said hunting.
Yeah, I'm just in general,
my default setting is inappropriate,
which is kind of awkward
when you're a pastor as well.
But there's like some taboos, right?
It's almost more taboo to talk about money
than it is to talk about sex.
And I'm like, oh my gosh,
but here's the thing with the Jewish principles
that we're looking at, the ancient Jewish principles
and look at the Jewish principles that set them apart,
right, it's not because of where they're from,
it's not because of their race
or anything like that,
it's because of their mindset.
That's what always makes them disproportionately successful
with their finances.
And here's the crazy thing to me,
like in church, this is crazy
that we talk about tithing all the time, right?
It's okay to talk about tithing in church,
but investing, what?
Like financial freedom, huh?
But what, like doing an internet business, what?
I mean, this is crazy,
but we will talk about tithing
until the cows come home.
We'll talk about special offerings,
like we'll take at least one special offering a year.
And I'm a pastor, so I talk about these things as well
and I run conferences and we take up offerings
for the speakers and we take up offerings
for the ministries and we sow into projects
all around the world.
And so we talk about tithes and offerings a little bit,
but do we talk about savings?
Do we talk about investing?
And here's the thing, like churches need more money,
ministries need more money.
And so we talk about tithes and offerings and those things
so that we can actually raise more money.
But if we talked about investing, right?
We would have more money
because the Jewish, ancient Jewish principle
is to invest at least 20% of our income
into other businesses that are gonna produce
an increasing measure of income.
And so for me, like these are definitely challenged me.
You know, like I know other people are challenged by me
and they react to me by being like,
sweet, let's talk about sex.
Let's talk about money.
Let's talk about discipling nations.
And I've been having, like I've set up a company recently
and the company, one of the goals of the company
is actually to raise up the sexiest Christian disciples
in world history.
I'm asking, what does that look like?
What are the sexiest Christian disciples
in world history look like?
Because I think they would be on fire.
I think that they're fitness.
Here's another topic that I talk about in church
and I talk about online
and I wanna do more of this as well as fitness.
And I think people like,
ah, fitness, we can't talk about that.
What, are you kidding?
Like.
I go to so many pastors meetings, I go to so many pastors meetings where they're so like,
like the majority of the pastors in the room is so overweight that the statistics are that,
and I've even heard this, like statistics are that pastors die early because they're so overweight,
not all of them, but there's a large percentage that do. So we miss out on their,
their callings, everything that they have to, to offer the world. And so I think, yeah,
some like for me, I feel that, that limiting beliefs, things that hold me back. And so
you guys that are listening, I know that this, this is stuff that people struggle with and there's
such a like scam culture out there. But I just want to say that the things that I want to encourage
you is like throw, kick the scams to the curb, but there's so many systems and you need to
investigate it, right? You need to look at it because if you don't, here's what you'll lose.
And you've got to think about this, right? There's sometimes we don't take a risk
because we don't want to fail, but the only way to guarantee your failure is just don't take a risk.
And when you're risking, you're going to be risking what people think of you. You're going
to potentially be risking money, but like you've got to press through. If you want to leave behind
the poverty mindset that has been established on us generationally, if you want to leave behind the
poverty mindset that is entrenched in Christian thinking and entrenched in the education system
and entrenched all around us, if you're going to leave behind that poverty mindset that keeps
people poor, you're going to have to take a risk and explore some things, learn some things and
learn those things. And I just maybe ask you this question Zee, like it's along the lines of
success leaves footprints, right? Yeah. Success leaves footprints. If you look at people who are
winning in this whole area of creating financial freedom for the next generation, for their kids,
what would be some of the things, like if you just said, like are these guys, these are probably the
biggest winners I've seen of like doing this, actually raising like royalty, creating systems
that their kids can inherit. What would be some of those clues that you've seen?
They think big. They take big faith steps. They think outside of the box.
Yeah. I mean, one of my favorite things is just to be around big people. And what I mean is just
big thinking people. And that's why you're my friend, because I'm like, yes, he's a man,
like you're big thinking and just, you're not just going to conform to small living. That's
not who God is. And that's not who we're called to be. So, yeah, I love the people. So, when you
say success leaves footprints, yeah, I always think success leaves clues. So, I'm going to follow the
people that are living successful lives. And I ask them, what are you doing differently?
You know, what's happening? Like I was in Bali with my mentors and they're, you know, at 23,
like he's making, he's now making a million, you know, seven figures a month from the internet.
And he's paid for all the courses so that we don't have to. He's set up a system so that
we don't have to do that. And he's got an amazing team around him who, you know,
done billion dollars in sales and all that stuff. These guys are, and hanging out with people that
have done courses for, you know, people that are coming out of sex trafficking, like these are big
thinking people. And that's, it's really important to get around people like that. Otherwise,
it actually, you actually will feel like you're just got weights around your ankles and you've
got to try drag all the people around you. Like get around big thinking people. Get around Benji Moore.
Stay in the embassy. Sweet. Hey, well, that's great. I just want to thank you very much for that.
And guys, just the homework for today. So I'm going to talk about the homework and then we're
going to wrap it up. But everyone, if you can give Zee a virtual clap and a sort of appreciation,
just love you and thank you for being with us. And your sea views are looking stunning.
Love you too. So that's very, very cool. Just love being with you as well. Thanks for everything that
you bring and thanks for signing into us. And so guys, the homework that I want to share with
you tonight, the homework to get into is the power of learning. The power of learning along
the lines of success leaves footprints. What is one of the most powerful things that you've learned
that's changed your life? And I'm excited for tomorrow. We've got a brilliant live coming in
tomorrow to help you discover genius ideas. So bless you and we'll catch you tomorrow.
I'll shoot you a message very shortly as well on when we're going live tomorrow.
Bless you. Bye-bye. And thank you, Zee. See you. Love you. Bye-bye.
Uh-oh! Get me out of here! Get me out of here!
