“You need to be rewired for success” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)Dopamine is a substance in your brain that not only makes you feel good in general, but also confident and ambitious. But science has shown that the more that you win, the more dopamine receptors you grow. This makes you more confident and ambitious, which in turn makes you grow even more receptors.It’s a virtuous cycle.But it goes both ways, and this is why those who win tend to continue to win, while those who are stuck with a limiting mindset have a very difficult time breaking out of that mindset. Your mindset might not be your fault. It could be a result of your parents, the public school system, your friends, or any number of factors. But it is holding you back.This is why I try to show you my own success and the success of others. So that your world expands, and your mindset enlarges. As this happens, and you see the possibilities in the world, you start to win more, you grow more dopamine receptors, and the cycle begins to turn in your favor instead of against you. And understanding of the above science is essential to being able to motivate yourself to work hard and succeed, and that is what I’m teaching you on this episode of The Tai Lopez Show!Don’t forget, you can listen to The Tai Lopez Show on Spotify!

“A lot of people have great ideas and concepts, but if you don’t know how to express them to others and persuade them, you will not be able to do much with your ideas” - Jordan Belfort(click to tweet)Today’s guest is none other than the Wolf of Wall Street Himself, Jordan Belfort, and we’re talking about sales, how to learn to be a better salesman, and more generally, how to become more persuasive in everything you do in life.A lot of business people have good ideas and concepts for their business, but in reality, the value of their idea is either multiplied or drastically reduced by their ability to persuade others of their idea!This is why sales is important to everyone, not just people who do or plan to make their living as a “salesman.” If you want to be successful, you will have to learn how to convince others, and Jordan’s Straight Line System is the proven strategy to teach you how to do that.Learn all of that and much more, on today’s episode of The Tai Lopez Show!Don’t forget, you can listen to The Tai Lopez Show on Spotify!

But anyone can learn themStrategic preparation is essential to good salesYour prospect needs to be 10 out of 10 on your product, trusting you, and your company, before closingRookie salespeople skip the qualifying section of the sales process. First of all, you need to make sure your prospect is in the market in the first placeBy asking smart questions, you can get into solid rapport with prospectsYour prospect has to believe that you really care about themYour prospect has to understand that, fundamentally, you’re just like themEvery idea has a certain amount of value to it. But the way it is presented either multiplies that value, or takes away from itPersuasion is a learnable thingHuman communication is 45% tone of voice, 45% body language, and only 10% wordsBody language has a way of slipping under the radar, and going right to the unconscious mind and creating a gut reactionWhen someone makes their first impression of you, they should be thinking:This person is sharp as a tacThis person is enthusiasticThis person is an expert in the fieldIf you make a bad first impression, it takes 7 subsequent meetings to turn that aroundWhen you’re perceived as an expert, it gives you the opportunity to control the flow of the conversationThe first stage of confidence comes from acting as ifStudy the best, in detail, to model it and eventually become itResilience has to do with the fundamental belief that you have what it takes to be successfulOnce you learn how to communicate, it changes who you are, and you become the successful person you could beWithout fear, there is no courageObjections are nothing more than smoke-screens for uncertainty TaiLopez.com/Wolf

“Always stay intellectually curious” - Naveen Jain(click to tweet)The saying goes, “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink,” to demonstrate that if someone doesn’t want or is unwilling to do something for themselves that would be good for them, there is little you can do. But if you focus your efforts instead on how you make the horse thirsty, you’ve solved the problem.This thirst is what Naveen Jain says anyone who wants to be successful needs to cultivate. It is intellectual curiosity, and a desire to constantly learn, and it is what separates the greats, those who are super successful, from the rest.If you want to be successful, you need to cultivate inside yourself this desire to learn.

“Beauty can function somewhat like an irrationally exuberant market bubble” - Richard Prum(click to tweet)The evolutionary view of beauty has traditionally been that humans evolved a sense of what was beautiful based on practically. We’re often taught that things like the waist to hip ratio are a long-ingrained sign of fertility to men, which is why we find them attractive.My guest today, Richard Prum, has a different view. He says that beauty can be viewed more as an “irrationally exuberant financial market bubble.” In other words, it’s not so cut and dry, and natural selection has led each of us, within our own cultures, to develop a sense of what we consider attractive, not dependent on the practicality of evolutionary considerations.What do you think?

Click “Follow” and let me know what you think!“Beauty is a social contrivance. It’s invented by us” - Richard Prum(click to tweet)Points to Keep In MindCertain aspects of science seem to be completely unexplainableBeauty can function somewhat like an irrationally exuberant market bubbleBeauty is a social contrivance. It’s invented by usHumans are evolved to be satisfied, and to find satisfying relationshipsThe evolutionary idea of beauty being practical neglects some of the concepts of natural selection in the human animalIn society, it could be argued that it is actually women who are defining the idea of beauty more than menThe idea of machismo and dominance as the core of attraction is deeply flawed and a cause of unhappinessGet in touch with the idea of what it means to be really caring for your partnerHuman diversity is a result of the diversity of mate-choice, therefore standards of beauty can be far different across culturesThe men who are most attractive tend to be socially attentive

“The true definition of “luck” in this modern age is learning early” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)To determine the financial value potential of something right now, there is a simple formula: Future value = present value of future revenue. This is the formula that you can use when examining business ideas and opportunities, when looking into investments, and all other areas of financial potential.Today, I am talking about that formula, as well as why apartments are one of the lower risk real estate opportunities, the 2 ways you make money, how to monetize a brand beyond normal operations, why life is like poker, 3 ways to start a side hustle, why haters hate, why mindset is the main thing holding people back, and what the butterfly effect means for the importance of the little decisions you make everyday.Don’t forget, you can listen to The Tai Lopez Show on Spotify!

“We are sponges. Find a mentor and get inspired by hanging around that person.” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)A productive daily routine is difficult to achieve.We all wake up in the morning, check our phones, and then go about our days doing the best we can. But then we finish our day and go to bed thinking: was that really the best I could do? Your daily life should be composed of tasks dedicated to either maintaining the life you’re living or trying to improve your life for some future date. If you’re disappointed with your daily routine, it’s because you aren’t attending to this rule. And if you believe you are, some trait is preventing you from seeing the picture clearly.On today’s episode of The Tai Lopez Show, we are taking a close look at productivity. How can you squeeze the most juice out of your day? The first step is to be honest with yourself. Self-deception will disguise laziness as procrastination or stubbornness as ‘your opinion.’ So, before listening to this podcast, take a second to check your ego at the door and get ready to make the changes required to take your daily routine to the next level.Don’t forget!

The reality is that what holds most people back is their own mindset. If you think you have unlimited potential, within your circle of competence, you really do have unlimited potential within that circle.The circle of competence refers the range of things that you are really competent in. For instance, if you are not at all naturally athletic, you do not have unlimited potential in athletic pursuits. But provided you have a certain level of competence within a pursuit or skill, your potential is probably only being limited by what you mindset is.So increase the range of your mindset, and what you believe is possible for you to achieve. As you do that, you will see your results begin to increase in kind.Don’t forget, you can listen to The Tai Lopez Show on Spotify!

Instead, build your self esteem around being the fastest, best learner” - Tom Bilyeu(click to tweet)Today we’re talking with the founder of Quest Bars about how he was able to build a health bar empire. Quest Bars sell 1.5 million bars per day, and today he is giving us a behind the scenes view of what it takes to do something on that scale, and just importantly, what it feels like to achieve the much success.Tom places a tremendous amount of emphasis on where your self esteem comes from. If your self esteems comes from being right, you will feel too threatened to admit when you’re wrong, and learn from it. But if your self esteem instead comes from the idea that you are an incredible learner, the best learner in any room, you will be willing to admit when you’re wrong.Just like he says, your behavior is driven by your identity. So the process of defining to yourself what your own identity is, will change your behavior, and in fact is one of the most powerful ways to change your behavior to be what you want it to be.Learn how to achieve incredible success in whatever you plan to do in life, on this episode of The Tai Lopez Show!Don’t forget, you can listen to The Tai Lopez Show on Spotify!
