Welcome to another episode of Millionaire Secrets! This week we're in the presence of greatness! Jay Samit joined me to talk about entrepreneurship and the growing need for new businesses. Along the way, we discovered that we have a lot of similar opinions about the importance of self-belief. We also shared an understanding of how it affects a person's prospects in life. But we both arrived at these conclusions from very different places. Jay was the President of EMI Records, he served as a VC for Deloitte, and he's worked with a string of pre-IPO companies. It's these experiences that have given him a unique perspective on entrepreneurship. He suggests that anyone can become a millionaire within one year if they have the appropriate motivation and self-belief. But it's not just a theory… He's actually got proof! He performed an experiment whereby he told someone they'd be a millionaire within one year. He offered his faith and encouragement, but nothing else. Low and behold, that person earned over $1m within their first year! So this raises the question… Can anyone become a millionaire? Could you? Find out in this episode of Millionaire Secrets with Jay Samit!

For years I’ve been telling people, whether by choice or by circumstance, every career gets disrupted. Post pandemic I don’t have to make that argument anymore. We are living in an era of endless innovation and you can choose to either be terrified by that reality or excited. If you are working at a job that doesn’t satisfy you, where they pay you just enough to show up but not enough to care have you asked yourself why. Instead, why not try to live a life of purpose and fulfillment by pursuing what is meaningful to you. Whether you choose to believe it or not every business will be disrupted. Most people think of the obvious examples like a truck driver being replaced by a self-driving truck or AI systems replacing accountants and middle management. We hold a device in our pocket more powerful than all the computers NASA used to put a man on the moon. Yet, we can also use that device to connect to 7 billion potential customers around the world. After writing Disrupt You, I get what I call love letters daily from readers that tell me how much the book changed their lives. But occasionally I get an email from a young person that says something along the lines of, this is great but I can’t do it. So I said okay, my message isn’t getting through to young people so how can I fix that. I found a young man who, on paper, seemed like he had everything going against him. And I told him a simple lie based on the psychological phenomenon called the Pygmalion effect. What I told him was I interviewed over 100 candidates and he was the only one with all the attributes to be a self-made millionaire. For the next year, I simply provided him with coaching and nothing else and a year later he was able to hit that millionaire mark. When I talk to large audiences and lecture all over the world, inevitably somebody pitches me an idea and what I generally tell them is that their idea sucks. Because ideas come from the outside it's not till you get deep into it where you have the insights that no one sitting on the sidelines would have learned. Try to destroy your idea, try to find everybody that will tell you what's wrong with it and kill it. When you find that idea that can’t be killed, then go raise money and build a business around that it. Because what will happen if you don’t do those steps ahead of time you’ll raise a bunch of money and build a team only to realize your idea doesn’t work. You should think of every business as a high-tech startup. You need to figure out how to run your business on data, many local business owners focus all their energy working in the business instead of on it. Whether you’re a plumber, an electrician, or any other local business, how are people discovering you and finding out about your services? And how can you better target those people so you can lower your customer acquisition costs and increase the customer lifetime value? They are the same concepts the big companies use but they apply equally as well to local businesses.  Resources Shared: Disrupt You! By Jay Samit Future Proofing You by Jay Samit

He also reveals why you should never ‘go it alone' in business, how you can approach someone to be your mentor, and how fear can be a helpful tool to expand or start your business. “Disruption isn't about what happens to you; it's about how you respond to what happens to you.” - Jay Samit This week on SmallBizChat Podcast: Resources Mentioned: Connect with Jay Samit: Become Your Own Boss Book GIVEAWAY!

He then landed his first sales position ever at Mintel. They gave him the territory of the south-east US, their worst-performing region. After turning Mintel’s worst-performing region into their best-performing region, Ben got asked to manage their Account Management group. In 2012, he got sent over to London. There, he had three excellent years running sales for CPG with a team of twelve nationalities, speaking sixteen different languages. After that, he got sent back to Mintel in Chicago, where he is currently, to manage a business unit and the broader part of the Americas commercially. Ben had amazing teams! He learned from them quickly. Then he got them to work well with one another to drive growth.Ben looks at building cohesive teams and then getting them to work well together as one of his skills.Ben is hungry to learn all the time - from absolutely anybody with whom he comes in contact.After spending so much time helping his customers understand the market, Ben’s top distinctions are:Ben works with organizations with open innovation teams. Open innovation teams are looking ten years into the future. Within Mintel, they have a team that focuses just on the future and on trends.At the executive level, when you get into the C-Suite and above, fuzzy ideas work best. Executives feel comfortable working in abstract and fuzziness.Mintel has subscription models and databases, which make things much more prescriptive. That works well for their entry-level employees.Everyone should have a vision for the future and a career plan. If you have those, you need to dial in and get even more specific. You need to know where your opportunities lie down the road. Think about what you always wanted to do that you have never done. And what you would do, after you have managed to make more money than you will ever need. Then, consider the impact that would have on your family and your career. There is a gap between wanting to be a manager and wanting to step into a leadership role. That gap goes from being an excellent manager to setting a vision. Or alternatively, pushing and helping your teams set visions and then stepping out of the way to let them develop those visions.  The people around you will ultimately let you know if they want to follow you and call you a leader. Ben defines leadership by looking at the people he would aspire to be, historically. Two of those are President Lincoln and Coach Wooden. They both had confidence yet remained humble. And they surrounded themselves with excellent people. A side-effect of those qualities in sales leaders is revenue growth. Ben’s team is always looking for what they can do to get themselves to where they want to go.  A positive energy element is necessary for building a cohesive team. For Ben, the Ted Lasso show epitomizes much of what he loves in terms of that energy element.Ben has a group selling single-copy reports. They have traditionally done it in a specific way for a long time. Now they have two individuals working on it who have a growth mindset, coupled with the humility to go out and learn from others. Their new ideas that they are breaking what they were doing in the past. Their net goal is to double the revenue that they were doing. Now, single-copy reports are becoming a funnel-generator. Something that was pretty unexciting before is now one of the most exciting and important aspects of the business. Because two leaders refused to continue doing things in the way they were getting done in the past.Links and resources:Book mentioned: Disrupt You by Jay SamitBen Dietz on LinkedIn

My guest on today’s episode is one of the top thinkers, speakers, and entrepreneurs on this planet. He is certainly one of the most publicly well-connected business men I have ever had the pleasure of talking to. I had to pinch myself all week after he agreed to be on this show, and then I got nervous and anxiety got the best of me, so I could barely remember how to speak, let alone lead the conversation. Lucky for me, this guy is a real pro, and he still managed to deliver some of my best content to date, despite my awkwardness and loss of flow. This guy has been involved in some of the top music and tech industry business of our time, including Sony, EMI, and Universal. He has been involved in some of our most disruptive tech industry start ups, including ebay and Linked in. He has worked with such top notch movers and shakers as Bill Gates and Richard Branson. He has helped raised over 8 billion dollars in start up capital for business he believes will help solve problems for humanity. He believes entrepreneurs will solve the worlds biggest problems, and has made it his mission to inspire others to change their limiting beliefs, change their careers, and find ways to make positive change in our institutions and global systems. For this reason he has been on my personal list of people I hope to talk to for several years. He is a best selling author of Disrupt You, which was originally published in 2015, and which has been since published in several languages around the world. He spends much of his time teaching and promoting his motivational message all around the world, and he is also involved in several businesses which are currently tackling some of our biggest problems, such as sustainable agriculture and education. He is passionate about his belief that anyone can help solve a problem that many people have, by applying Insight and perseverance.It is my honor to introduce the Compelling articulate and innovative, Mr. Jay Alan Samit.That wraps up this conversation with Jay Samit.

Are you struggling to compete with other agencies in your niche? Are you tired of losing new business to your competition? You can stand out if you learn how to disrupt status quo. You just need to get a little scrappy and start thinking outside-of-the-box. In today's episode, we'll cover: Why your agency needs to think differently. #1 way to achieve agency growth fast! How data can close more agency new business. Today, I talked with Jay Samit — serial entrepreneur, former VP of Sony, Vice Chairman of Deloitte, and best selling author. Oh! And he grew an agency from 0 in revenue to $200 million is 18 months. He's basically a superstar. And Jay's new book "Disrupt You! Master Personal Transformation, Seize Opportunity, and Thrive in the Era of Endless Innovation" is all about how you can create agency growth by being a little different. Why Your Agency Needs to Think Differently Jay talked about his experience coming into a marketing agency that had $0 in revenue and transforming it into a $200 million opportunity. How? He pivoted. The agency had a great idea, but they didn't know how to execute it properly. They had the framework of value exchange merchandising but didn't know what to do with it. Jay's idea was to offering value exchange merchandise for brands around the world. So for example, instead of paying for your in-game app currency, you could just watch an ad instead. Here's the crazy part. Within one year, the agency was charging advertisers $1,000 CPM! Maybe your agency has a great idea. And, maybe you're awesome at what you do. But, if you're not succeeding, it may be time to pivot. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Think about how you can apply those same services and skills to a broader or more nuanced user base. How can you utilize what you already have in a different way? No way to do things differently? Try adding some unique services that set you apart! The Best Way to Achieve Agency Growth Fast! I've talked about niching in the past, but what about niching into an unknown space? If you can find a way to be the only agency offering services to a particular group of people, you're in the golden zone. Jay told a story about an agency owner going from homeless to $70k in his first month — and $1 million by the end of his first year. How did he do it? He found a market no one else was serving. Sure, niching can be a great way to get hyper-specialized. But, if you can offer services to a market no one is paying attention to, you'll have a huge advantage. Here's a tip... Research a couple niches you're passionate about and see if anyone else is serving them. Start searching for those unexplored opportunities. You never know what you might find. How Data Can Close More New Business Are you having trouble pitching? Can you get your foot-in-the-door, but you seem to have issues closing? Try putting data to work. You can tell a prospect anything. But, if you can show them substance, they're going to be interested. You may have a killer strategy and a great idea that will help that prospect rake in customers. But if you can back it up with solid data, you're more likely to win the pitch. Data doesn't lie. Think you can triple their ROI on Facebook? I believe you, but your prospects need more than just your word on it. Explain the plan, then show them how you can do it by sharing a case story and reporting data that backs up your claim. The better the data, the better your chances. Cashflow or Bookkeeping Issues? FreshBooks is the solution with their ridiculously easy­-to-­use cloud accounting software for agencies.

Ever download an app or buy a gadget that was so obvious...so easy to use that you say to yourself, "Damn, why didn't I think of that?!" It's not that you lack creativity or capital, you lack Deal Flow. (Big thanks to Jay Samit's book "Disrupt You")Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice/message

You either have a choice of working to help someone else pursue their dreams or work to pursue your own. That’s the simple choice in life. Jay Samit, author of Disrupt You!, says if you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right. Many people have drilled in from a young age that they’re not good enough or they’re not smart enough. A child doesn’t learn to walk seamlessly standing up one day and run like Hussein Bolt. A child stumbles, learns what doesn’t work, stands up, and tries it again and again. Being an entrepreneur is no different. Walt Disney’s first company went bankrupt. Bill Gates and Paul Allen’s first companies went bankrupt. The list goes on and on, but they learned what didn’t work and that’s how you grow. Jay talks about his book, Disrupt You!, and breaks down for people the truth of how to start billion-dollar companies. Love the show?

“Augmented reality will eliminate the fear of others and make the world a better place.” - Jay Samit (click to tweet) Over the past few years, we’ve witnessed augmented reality technologies develop. But products like Google Glass and QR codes made us skeptical of whether this technology had a place in the real world. Then there was Pokémon Go, which caught the world’s attention, made over $1 billion dollars, and made any AR-related doubts vanish from our minds. On today’s episode of The Tai Lopez Show, we are joined by augmented reality-expert Jay Samit. He is the Independent Vice Chairman of Deloitte and the bestselling author of Disrupt You! Jay joins us today to widen our understanding of augmented reality. He shares what the latest developments are in AR technologies, and how they will undoubtedly influence our industries and lifestyles in the years to come. Also you can listen to The Tai Lopez Show on Spotify! Click “Follow” and let me know what you think! “We’ll now have more control over our environment because our environment will conspire with us to succeed. Not against us.” - Jay Samit (click to tweet) Points to Keep In Mind Augmented reality isn’t just about adding to the environment, it’s about subtracting An example of the implementation of AR in an industry is the airplane cargo-packers AR glasses would make it 3D tetris and save airlines billions in jet fuel AR softwares can tell if a person’s gait is suspicious or body temperature is high (risk for ebola) Think about opportunity first and then worry about privacy Tinder goggles would make profile apparent in real-life (ex: halo hologram above person) Machine-learning allows the software to get smarter with each new data point AR would allow people to always have access to all of mankind’s knowledge up until that point.

He launches billion dollar businesses, transforms entire industries, revamps government institutions, and for over three decades continues to be at the forefront of global trends...(read more)" A little over a week ago, I had shared one of the lessons from Disrupt You on Instagram, when Jay Samit reached out to me to say thank you. Less than a week later, I had the opportunity to interview him on The Happiness of Pursuit Podcast. Through Disrupt You, Jay challenges readers to rethink their traditional approach to business and shatters any excuses that may be standing in your way. That advice is followed by tactical steps you can take today to being thinking like many of the billionaire entrepreneurs Jay has coached in his career. One of the most simple, yet practical exercises he recommends is "to write down 3 problems you face every day. After a month, you have 90 ideas, and a theme will likely emerge. The bigger the problem, the bigger the opportunity." What really blew me away, was the way he reframed the solution, "when you don't know how to solve that problem, find something that does..." "Steve Jobs didn't know how to code, and he created the largest tech company in the world." What will you learn in this episode of The Happiness of Pursuit Podcast: >>How to find a billion person problem (and a billion dollar solution) >>How billion dollar businesses are built >>The importance of hard work and patience >>The difference between failing and failure >>Why you should focus on the impact, not income To get the bonus workbook, plus see the additional videos go to www.douglasjfoley.com/83

In this episode of Food, Success & Life for the Modern Woman, Jay Samit discusses what it means to DISRUPT yourself for success. “Success comes down to two basic variables. You just need the following two things and you will be successful: Insight and perseverance. Everything else can be hired.” This episode is shock full of inspiration. Jay shares what he has learned about achieving success in life, and shows us a shortcut to get there.   “Everybody wants to change the world, but nobody wants to change themselves.” – Jay Samit   How do you find or shape insight? Everyone has problems. And a business person solves them. If you start looking at every problem as an opportunity to solve something, it becomes very easy. Act on it and you will find success.   In his book “Disrupt You” he breaks down disrupting yourself, then your business, and then how it can be applied to the big problems we have in the world.   “The purpose of life is to live a life of purpose.” – Jay Samit   We only get one life, don’t you want to make the best of it? Everyone has the ability to make the first tomorrow and most people don’t move forward because they’re afraid of failure. Failing is a given in everything we do. Failure is throwing in the towel.   Download Jay’s FREE 40 page workbook here if you want to go on a journey to maximize your success in life.   Business traditionally is something that is created, then they figure out how to package, market and sell it…there are many pieces to the puzzle. But they are not all valued the same. They don’t all bring in as much business. Why not just focus on the part that has the most value?   Think of all the decisions, and wasted time we create. We have to start by being more thoughtful about how we want to live our life. Are we living our life so that we can pay bills until we die? We already lived our life and there is no need to relive past. We can be everything we want today.   Picture that person at work or your family that is always complaining. Always in a negative funk. That person would not see a million dollar idea if you dangled it in front of them. So do the opposite. Start your day off in a positive state of mind. Endorphins do a number on your brain and you become alert, your IQ increases, your personality and likelihood to be liked increases…So start your day off with these two affirmations:   Today can be better than yesterday. I have the power to make it so.   What is an intrapreneur? An intrapreneur looks at your business. If you don’t disrupt your own company and become that intrapreneur, the company will go out of business and you will lose your job. You have to step up and be willing to stand up and solve it. Even when you’re afraid you could lose your job for saying something.   If you’re going to spend the one shot of living this life and you’re not trying to work for yourself instead of making someone else rich, is it worth it? You never get these years back.   “Be the best at what you do, or be the only one doing it.”   Jay’s 3 Habits to Ensure He is Leading His Life on Purpose: Walking a lot. You can’t achieve your dreams if you don’t have health Eat healthy Get out of your comfort zone and push yourself.   Jay’s Morning Routine: He doesn’t like routine and doesn’t like to do things in the same order all the time. The more things you can do out of habit, the more you are challenging your brain constantly.   15 Day Fat Loss Kick Start Ebook Download your FREE copy here!! DOWNLOAD!   Check your email.

Stephen is the CEO of Predictive ROI and the host of the Onward Nation podcast. He is the author of two bestselling books, speaker, trainer, and his digital marketing insights have been featured in SUCCESS, Entrepreneur, The Washington Post, Forbes, Inc. Magazine, and other media. Good Morning Onward Nation…welcome to Episode 352…I’m Stephen Woessner. I am really looking forward to this solocast — because — we are going to tackle what I am beginning to consider as the most expensive money draining constraint inside any business. And I suppose it is not fair or accurate to say inside any business — because this mistake actually happens inside us. It is something that is completely within our control — and to make matters worse — it is a constraint we put into place — and it keeps us from moving forward. That constraint is the Imposter Syndrome, Onward Nation. After interviewing nearly 400 of today’s top business owners around the world — I can tell you with 100 percent certainty — that every single person who has walked this Earth has felt the effect of the syndrome pushing them down and applying great weight to their shoulders. No matter how big and successful someone may seem on the outside — the syndrome is there. If you have been listening to Onward Nation a while now — you have heard our guests talk about the Imposter Syndrome — and — what the syndrome actually is. And that is fear. Fear of uncertainty — or there is also the reverse of that — the fear of certainty. The fear of not achieving significance. The fear of failure or the fear of success. There are many types of fear and it paralyzes us from making important decisions or taking action on new opportunities like you hiring the additional staff we need because remain small seems like the prudent thing to do. Or…not buying the new piece of equipment because what if you don’t have enough orders to run it at full capacity? Or…not launching that podcast you have always dreamt of because what if no one tunes in an listens and you can’t get guests to join you on the show? Or…not knocking on the door of investors who would be excellent partners of yours but you are tired all getting all of the NOs! So here’s the good news. All of the pain and pressure fear causes us to feel on a daily basis is actually pretty simple to fix when have the right recipe for success. And the recipe I am going to share with you is something I learned from John Livesay, a good friend of mine and one of today’s leading experts in helping business owners go from invisible to investible. John helps business owners and executives craft a compelling pitch that engages investors in a way that inspires them to join a startup’s team. John is also the host of the brilliant “The Successful Pitch podcast,” the author of the new book “The Successful Pitch — Conversations About Going from Invisible to Investible,” and Inc. Magazine calls John “The Pitch Whisperer.” Impressive credentials. But, John and his business partner — Judy Robinett — also help business owners get ready to make a successful pitch to investors so the business gets funded — and in many instances — get funded fast — because of Judy’s impressive connections within the investor community. You may remember Judy as our rock solid awesome guest in Episode 329 of Onward Nation and John will be my guest on Episode 360, which will air on Monday, November 7th. What I love about John’s approach to working with business owners in creating their successful pitch is how he smartly addresses what he calls “The Three Faces of Fear” right at the onset the working relationship. Why is this important? Because if John can help a business owner get past their fear — and these three fears specifically — then the probability of the business owner delivering a successful pitch and getting funded increases exponentially. How does John know this? Because it is exactly what he had to do inside his own business. The tech startups John was helping with their pitch kept telling him, “This is great. We definitely need help but what we also need are warm introductions to investors now that we have this great pitch.” But John kept saying to his clients, “I don’t do that. I don’t know any investors.” But, there were enough business owners asking John to make the introductions that he realized he should follow his own advice… “If your customers and clients are telling you something that they want and are willing to pay for, then maybe you should figure out how to get it for them.” So John’s Successful Pitch podcast was his way of building up his network of investors so he could introduce his clients, which it definitely did — but before he could begin to build the initial momentum — he had to overcome the Three Faces of Fear. John shared with me that when he gets afraid to do something outside of his comfort zone, he has found success when he puts a “face” on it — otherwise, it just becomes too overwhelming and so fearful. But if he can make the fear more tangible — then that’s the first step to overcoming the fear. The three faces of fear are: The Fear of Rejection. The Fear of Failure The Fear of the Unknown. For John, he ran into the Fear of Rejection when he would say to himself, “Well, what if I invite someone to be on my podcast and they say, “No thanks,” or “Let’s hear several other episodes before I accept.” But, he was able to push past this initial fear by drawing on his years of sales experience that told him — despite the fear, doubt, and pressure he was feeling inside — that key to victory was to never take rejections personally and to never reject yourself. Onward Nation, don’t say “no” on behalf of your clients or prospects. If they say no — so be it — but keep yourself in the game and keep on fighting. The second fear John had to overcome was the Fear of Failure. When you’re starting a podcast, a new business, or seeking capital from an investor, the Fear of Failure will knock on your door and say, “What if you invest all this time and all this money and nobody downloads and episode? Won’t that be humiliating? Won’t that be a waste of time and money?” But thankfully for John, one of his early podcast guests was Jay Samit who wrote a book called, “Disrupt You.” In the book, Jay wrote, “Failure is just feedback. Keep going until you get a zombie idea so great it won’t die.” Excellent advice from Jay, Onward Nation. And just a heads up — make a mental note — Jay Samit will be our guest on Episode 366, which will air on Tuesday, November 15th. So John if you are listening — thank you for the wonderful introduction to Jay. Then the third fear is the Fear of the Unknown. The list of things John didn’t know about starting his podcast was a mile long, including what microphone to buy, how to edit the episodes, how to promote the show, all the way to what questions to ask during the interviews. John had been a guest on many shows and media appearances, but never hosted one, which is a very different experience being on the host-side of the microphone. John found all of the technology-related items to be overwhelming and potentially could have been the thing that stopped him from launching the show. But, then John found someone who could produce the show for him and all he had to focus on being a great host. Boom. No more Fear of the Unknown. John’s approach to conquering the three faces of fear is masterful and I encourage you to apply it. I also want to share with you and early detection system — something to warn you when you are about to get bombarded by fear — how can you prepare yourself for the thoughts to come next? Excuses are an early indicator to fear. When we hear excuses playing or circling around in our mind — matched up with some sort of justification — it is likely because we are feeling the impact of fear. So I want to arm you with a list of 50 excuses that Napoleon Hill documented in his groundbreaking book, Think & Grow Rich. If and when one of these thoughts comes into your mind, let it be your litmus test, that you are heading down the path of fear — it is time to confront it for what it is — dismiss it and move on. Or, if you hear one of your employees, colleagues, or friends say something similar to what is on the list…ask them…what are they afraid of…what is the worst that could happen? Here is the complete list of 54 excuses…courtesy of Napoleon Hill: If I didn’t have a wife and family… If I had enough “pull”… If I had money… If I had a good education… If I could get a job… If I had good health… If I only had time… If times were better… If other people understood me… If conditions around me were only different… If I could live my life over again… If I did not fear what “they” would say… If I had been given a chance… If I now had a chance… If other people didn’t “have it in for me”… If nothing happens to stop me… If I were only younger… If I could only do what I want… If I had been born rich… If I could meet “the right people”… If I had the talent that some people have… If I dared assert myself… If I only had embraced past opportunities… If people didn’t get on my nerves… If I didn’t have to keep house and look after the children… If I could save some money… If the boss only appreciated me… If I only had somebody to help me… If my family understood me… If I lived in a big city… If I could just get started… If I had the personality of some people… If I were not so out of shape… If my talents were known… If I could just get a break… If I could only get out of debt… If I hadn’t failed… If I only knew how… If everybody didn’t oppose me… If I didn’t have so many worries… If I could marry the right person… If people weren’t so dumb… If my family were not so extravagant… If I were sure of myself… If luck were not against me… If I had not been born under the wrong star… If it were not true that “what is to be will be”… If I didn’t have to work so hard… If I hadn’t lost my money… If I lived in a different neighborhood… If I didn’t have a past… If only I had a business of my own… If other people would only listen to me… And…here is the greatest excuse of them all, Onward Nation… “If I had the courage to see myself as I really am, I would find out what is wrong with me and correct it, then I might have a chance to profit by my mistakes and learn something from the experience of others, for I know that there is something wrong with me, or I would now be where I would have been if I had spent time analyzing my weaknesses, and less time building excuses to cover them.” Onward Nation, please realize that the fear you may be feeling right now is not real. Fear is made up. Fear doesn’t exist. Fear doesn’t have any power over you unless you let it. The next time you are feeling pressure — the next time you are feeling fearful — would you please do me a favor? Just pause — take a deep breath — tell yourself the emotions you are feeling right now are not real — that they are simply the Imposter Syndrome trying to keep you from your destiny — and then — remind yourself of the wise words from Marianne Williamson… “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ “Actually, who are you not to be? “You are a child of God. Playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. “We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. “As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” — Marianne Williamson, Author of A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of “A Course in Miracles” Okay, Onward Nation? So with that…I want to say thank you again for taking the time to be here with me today. It is an honor to have you here — thank you for tuning in — I am delighted you chose this episode to be what you listen to, study, and take with you on your morning run, or maybe Onward Nation has become part of your daily commute, or in some other way has become part of your morning routine. I want you to know how much I appreciate you sharing some of your invaluable 86,400 seconds you have in your day with me and the strategies we learn and share each day from today’s top business owners. And please continue to let me know what you think of Onward Nation…good or bad…I always want your feedback. You can hit me up on Twitter, find us on Facebook, me on LinkedIn, or you are always welcome to email me directly at stephen@onwardnation.com — and yes — that is my actual email address — no fancy filters or filing system — it will come directly to me. We will be back tomorrow with an incredible encore interview with Thomas Lindsay — you will not want to miss Thomas’s philosophy why keeping things simple — no matter what business you’re in — tends to be the pathway to profitability, Onward Nation. The conversation with Thomas is rock solid awesome. Until then, onward with gusto!

[00:17] “I got into this field and was amazed when you wake up one day, and dozens of your friends have become billionaires, and it's not like anybody went to special schools or had special this or that, but 70% of the world's richest billionaires were all self-made. They have the same 24 hours in a day that you and I do, so there must be something different that they're doing with their time. What is it? How can I learn to do that? How can I emulate it, and how can I do it no matter what continent, what country, what city, [or] what education I have? Most of these people didn't go to top universities. Many didn't even go to college. Sir Richard Branson, [who] started 12 companies now that have market caps over a billion dollars, didn't even go to school. What is he doing [that's] different? Can I do that? That's what Disrupt You!, disrupting yourself, is all about.” [04:05] Jay's book is split into three parts: (1) self-disruption, the internal process of disrupting your personal value chain; (2) business-disruption, the process of disrupting the value chain of a business or industry; and (3) world-disruption, the process of using the principles of disruption to solve big, non-business, world problems (like climate change, education, and healthcare). Jay says Disrupt You! is a new paradigm with predictive and repeatable methodologies for breaking the patterns that limit personal success and growth that anyone can use to become a disruptor. [04:46] Jay says that the need to disrupt starts out in our childhood. Parents, teachers, and others who mean well constantly reinforce and tell us what we can't do, what we won't be, and what we're not good at. We grow up and begin to believe that we have a certain type of personality, that we're not good at math or public speaking. “We put blinders on and then society gives us shackles. In fact, you are completely malleable, and once you realize you can change your preconceived limitations, it then makes it easier to look at the world as having the same flexibility, the same porousness, the same [potential] for you to disrupt. And so when you look at the self-made billionaire in their 20's, that's what they're doing, and they have the advantage that they don't have the preconceived ways of doing things that we have developed into habits.” [05:40] Changing yourself into a disruptor is a matter of introspection. Jay likes to say, “It's akin to major surgery, but you're holding the scalpel.” Becoming a disruptor is a state of mind; it's about becoming a silver-lining person. When you have problems, instead of saying “woe is me,” ask yourself if others have them too. Maybe the problem has scale. Maybe if you solve the problem, you could solve it for millions of people. Your phone now connects you to 6 billion consumers. If you're right for just a nanosecond, you could become a billionaire. [06:30] “Once you get into [the mindset of a disruptor], you realize that our world has changed so dramatically, that we have access to tools that weren't around 2, 5, [or] 10 years ago, [and] that you may be the first person to apply these tools, that somebody else invented, to solve a problem.” [06:45] Jay uses a popular traffic app, Waze, which sold for a billion dollars with no revenue, as an example of the size of the market potential that technology allows us to reach with our ideas. You don't have to be in the technology business to use social, mobile, and broadband to scale up. [08:20] How did Jay begin to understand the concept of disruption? Jay discusses a friend who found great success manufacturing and selling PC accessories like dust covers when PCs were new. Without ever learning how to use a computer, this friend sold his company for 135 million dollars. Jay asked himself what his friend had seen that he was missing. His friend had seen a simple opportunity. A similar thing happened when the iPhone came out. People ran out to buy the phone and then bought a $15 case to go with it. It's about looking for the holes in the market. [09:49] The value-chain concept comes into play because so many people look at the totality of a business, but most parts of a business don't generate a profit. Focus on capturing value and find the link you can disrupt. Jay gives four examples of businesses that have disrupted their markets: (1) Airbnb, the world's largest hotel chain, has no hotels; (2) Uber, the world's largest taxi company, owns no cars; (3) Facebook, the world's largest media company, creates no content; and (4) Alibaba, the world's largest retailer, has no inventory. All of these businesses were basically just a big data play. Take the essence of eBay, or any other two-sided marketplace, and realize that you can do this in any category and retain the value. [10:43] There's a new way to look at a business that involves focusing on the part where you can capture the most value and not bothering with all the other parts. In the book, Jay states that a business or product consists of the sum of the value of five links in the value chain: (1) R&D; (2) design, (3) production; (4) marketing and sales; and (5) distribution. People think that they have to reinvent the entire thing or that billion-dollar ideas come from having an epiphany, but it is really about isolating the one piece of a business you can disrupt and creating a better value chain. [11:57] Jay says that the number one business for failing is restaurants. People think that if they have a good recipe, they could open a good restaurant, but recipe is probably the least important factor in a restaurant's success. Somebody took a look at restaurant value chain and figured out that if you have too many items on the menu and people don't order all of them in sufficient quantity, wasted food becomes lost profit. Jay gives a detailed example of Benihana, a nationally recognized name in the restaurant industry, that has built its success on a limited menu to reduce food waste and using shared seating arrangements to fill tables. [12:47] In the process of looking at the value chain, you look at the value chain as a whole, drill down to take a closer look at individual links in the chain, and find the one link that can be disrupted. [13:04] Jay asks what has changed in the way people do things that you couldn't do before? He encourages us to apply modern tools to habits and problems nobody has developed a solution for yet. Jay challenges people to write down three problems a day for a month as an exercise. He gives an example that someone found through this exercise of monitoring prescription drug compliance with a timer integrated into the cap of the container. [15:30] If you disrupt a technology or product, you either create an entirely new market, consumer base, or user, or you destroy or displace the market for the technology it replaced. Jay uses a fun example from the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark where Indiana Jones shoots a sword-wielding opponent to illustrate the technological shift from knives to swords to guns. An example of a modern technological shift is the smartphone's replacement of a wide variety of devices and tools. Jay asks, “What does that new world of people living with this device open up that you couldn't do before? … When we talk about wearables or the internet-of-things, what are the next things that you can now do that solve problems that we didn't have a way to solve? … This isn't just for techies. We all use technology.” [17:25] Jay takes a glass-half-empty look at some technologies that are expected to displace workers in the years to come. According to Jay, “Disruption isn't about what happens to you; it's about how you respond to what happens to you. So, if you know all those things are happening, where [are] the opportunities? What are all the new things that you can do that put you surfing the wave of change as opposed to drowning under the tidal wave?” [18:29] Jay discusses an innovative and humanitarian application of 3D printing. An entrepreneur is using 3D printers to manufacture prosthetics for growing children. He can provide affordable prosthetics to young children who formerly would not have received one until their growth had slowed because of the cost to custom manufacture the device. To make this even better for the children, he went to Disney and licensed characters so that children can have a cool, character-themed prosthetic. This entrepreneur didn't invent the technology, but he found a link in the value chain that he could disrupt, serves an underserved audience that will line up to buy his product, and makes the world a better place. [20:00] Jay discusses slaughter-free meat and plastic in over-fished oceans as opportunities. [21:41] Jay is dedicating the last third of his life to teaching people how to do this because he believes that our society is fundamentally changing. There are 2.3 billion millennials in one generation, more people than were on the planet in their grandparents' generation. There won't be enough corporate jobs for all of them. The educational system designed to produce factory workers will not give people the skills they need in a world that doesn't need as many factories. This situation brings about the disenfranchisement of people, which leads to instability, can bring down governments, and changes our society. Jay suggests that we show all these people how they can be a couple of clicks away from knowledge, prosperity, great new markets, and equal access to consumers because most goods are digitally available globally. [22:51] Jay's concept of becoming a disruptor and looking at your personal value chain involves seeing yourself as The Brand of One, the individual as a product. Why would somebody not buy you-the-product and how do you improve it? Jay's concept of disrupting your personal value chain has four links: (1) R&D is perceiving your environment; (2) production is your actions and responses; (3) marketing and sales is how you present yourself to the world; and (4) distribution is how you spend your time and focus your energies. You start by understanding your personal value chain then present yourself to the world in a different way to rebrand yourself. [25:04] Jay talks about getting out of college during a jobless recession. He wanted to work in Hollywood creating special effects, but he couldn't find a job. For $1, he printed 100 business cards for a non-existent computer graphics company (for which he did not even make himself the boss). With some hustle, he got hundreds of thousands of dollars of post-production work and then hired people with talent and skills who wanted jobs. [25:55] “Where do 3D printing experts come from? Virtual reality experts? Bitcoin experts? Internet of things experts?” They started like Jay did when he had $1's-worth of business cards. Jay says, “They're self-proclaimed experts who then work hard to grow and defend the turf they wisely stake out. There's nothing stopping anybody from being the expert of the next big thing.” [27:58] According to Jay, “You've gotta be a little creative to rise above the noise in anything. If you're looking for a way to blaze a new trail without creativity, wrong! No one ever led a nation or a company by following in the footsteps of somebody else. … There's so much opportunity. Ideas are easy. Execution takes work. Success isn't guaranteed, but if you work at it, you will find out what it takes to be successful, and you will be successful.” [28:32] In the book, to get yourself into the mindset of figuring out where you're going and what you want to do, Jay gives four different segments to develop steps for a disruptor's map: aspirations, priorities, resources, and deadlines. [28:54] Jay states, “If you don't know where you want to be in five years, congratulations, you'll definitely not be there. If you don't know how to get to there, that's OK. Work backwards from a goal but give it a deadline. … So, you work backwards … and you don't need to know all the steps 'cause here's what's gonna happen: once you have that insight, you only need insight and drive to succeed. Those are the only two things [you need] in life. Everything else can be hired. Once you have that insight, you're gonna start exploring down that path. You're gonna' start talking to potential customers. You're gonna do all these iterations of your business in your head when you're not burning capital, when it doesn't cost any money, and everybody is trying to kill your idea until you come up with that zombie idea that can't be killed. And when you're doing that, you're going to uncover things that nobody else [has] discovered yet because nobody's gone that far down the path. And at that point in the path, you may pivot in a direction that you didn't even see.” [28:50] Jay gives an example of three guys who started an online video dating service named Tune-in Hook-up. Nobody wanted to use the dating service, but they looked at their data and noticed that a lot of people were watching the videos. They pivoted into YouTube and became billionaires. Most successful businesses have pivoted. LinkedIn started as a resume repository. eBay started as a place for collectors to find old, used things. Jay says, “You'll find [your pivot] if you're looking at your data and you're paying attention.” [31:22] Jay discusses his concept of the zombie idea: “Everybody always tells you, ‘Nurture your idea. Fondle it. Help it to grow.' That's [wrong]. You wanna figure out every way that idea's gonna fail because … the second you go in the marketplace, that's what your competition and reality [are] going to do to it. [F]ind … ten people who will benefit from this business and will spend time with you (not friends or family). … [H]ave them tell you [what's wrong with it] … [and have them] come back again and again until they come back and say, ‘Oh, I would pay for that. That makes sense. Wow, that's useful!' Then go with that data [and get funding]. … There is no shortage of capital. VCs last year put $40 billion into the hands of startups. Crowdfunding is now greater than that.” [32:23] Jay believes that there is only one advantage the United States has on the rest of the world, and that is that we do not have a fear of failure. He uses the example of two guys who started a company to synchronize traffic lights. The idea was way ahead of its time and bombed. But they didn't give up when their first company failed. The next company Bill Gates and Paul Allen started was Microsoft. [33:27] Jay discusses the difference between failing and failure: “Failing is trying something that you learn doesn't work; failure is throwing in the towel.” Jay suggests that you could talk to people involved in the early stages of any now large and very successful company and have them tell you a story about a board meeting when they were thinking about pulling the plug before they pivoted or made some other change. Google was once on the table for Excite to buy for $600,000, but the deal fell through. [34:03] Jay goes on to say, “We call private companies that have market caps over a billion dollars unicorns. There are now over 200 unicorns. The size of our market now that we're all interconnected is massive. You can scale from zero to a billion very, very quickly, and it doesn't take anything special except really looking at the market from a disruptor's mindset.” [34:30] To help listeners, Jay offers a free copy of his 40-page companion workbook toDisrupt You! at jaysamit.com or by reaching out to him on Twitter @jaysamit. [34:56] To find ideas, start with simple problems and start looking to see who else might have that problem. Jay emphasizes, “The more people you solve [a problem] for, the more money you can make.” [36:13] Concerning the ability to get started, Jay says: “Now, there's no excuse. You can get the learning for free. You can reach your market for free. You have social media. The cost of launching a startup is 95% cheaper than it was ten years ago because all the networked architecture is in place. All you have to do is be the catalyst for what the change is, and Disrupt You! tries to spark you.” [37:24] Concerning our ultimate motivations, Jay says, “The purpose of life is to live a life of purpose. … If you're not fulfilled by what you're doing, and you're staying in a job you don't like, how long are you gonna stay? A year? Two years? Five years? Are you gonna trade your whole life, and why would you give up the only life you have for something you don't want? … You can be what you want. You can be successful in the field that you choose to be. The only thing stopping most people is fear.” In the book, Jay refers to “the illusion of security.” Many people are fooled into thinking they have security because they have a good job. Jay cites that of the original Fortune 500 companies, only 57 are left on the list. Jay states that this “illusion of security” robs us of ambition and autonomy. [38:59] Jay briefly discusses positive thinking stating: “Scores of scientific studies have proven that visualizing success makes all things possible. … When you are in a positive state of mind, it releases dopamine. It lights up the neurotransmitters across your synaptic nerves like a Christmas tree, and suddenly … you are more creative, you increase your intelligence, you increase your energy, and you even close more sales. Success doesn't make you happy. Being happy creates success.” [40:17]: See chapters 9 through 13 of Disrupt You! for additional information and examples about disrupting each link of the value chain. [40:25] Jay discusses the concept of using other people's money (OPM): “What if I told you that I could get you millions of dollars from people who don't want you to pay it back, aren't gonna charge you any interest, and don't want equity in your company? You should be leaning into that speaker right now and listening. Here's how it works. You're going after a specific audience. Solve for that audience and [ask yourself], ‘Who else wants that audience?'” Jay gives an example of getting $60 million from McDonalds to help him launch Sony Connect (a digital music store to compete with iTunes). Through a large campaign, McDonalds had an increase in same store sales and Sony Connect got 20 million new customers; everybody was happy. “Solve for others and you'll solve for you.” [42:32] Jay gives the following recommendations for things that have had a profound influence on him: (1) “Have kids. It's a great motivation. You don't wanna let 'em down. You won't give up. I think fear either immobilizes you or pushes you to challenge your perceived limits.” (2) “Find a mentor. I really think you can find people from an earlier generation that have wisdom, knowledge, [and] connections to share that would just like [to have the validation] that they have learned something that they can pass on.LinkedIn is a great tool for that.” (3) “Travel. … Getting outside of your norm and your culture allows you not just to see the world different, but you'll see yourself and what you think of as the normal way of doing things [differently], and you'll get insights from that.” (4) “Life-long learning. Commit to life-long learning. Learn something every day. Get out of your comfort zone. Expand your universe.” (5) “Enjoy the journey.” Resources Mentioned Disrupt You!: Master Personal Transformation, Seize Opportunity, and Thrive in the Era of Endless Innovation – Book by Jay Samit about disruption.

It seems like Jay Samit has been a pivotal part of every important event in the last 20 years. In today's ever-changing and often-volatile business landscape, adaptability and creativity are more crucial than ever. It is no longer possible—or even desirable—to learn one set of job skills and work your way up the ladder. Rather, today's entrepreneurs and business leaders must anticipate change to create opportunities for professional success and personal satisfaction. In Disrupt You!, Jay Samit—a digital media expert who has launched, grown, and sold start-ups and Fortune 500 companies alike—describes the unique method he has used to invent new products and grow established businesses throughout his career. Samit has been at the helm of businesses in the ecommerce, digital video, social media, mobile communications, and software industries, helping to navigate them through turbulent economic times and guide them through necessary transformation so that they stay ahead of the curve and profitable. In Disrupt You!, he shows how the strategies that help companies flourish can be applied at an individual level. By challenging assumptions, pinpointing one's unique value, and identifying weaknesses in the structure of current industries, anyone can achieve success and prosperity. Incorporating stories from his own experience and anecdotes from other innovators and disruptive businesses—including Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, YouTube, Circ du Soleil, Odor Eaters, Iams Dog Food, Silly Putty, and many more—Samit shows how personal transformation can reap entrepreneurial and professional rewards. Disrupt You! offers clear and empowering advice for anyone looking for a big break; anyone with a big idea but no idea how to apply it; and for anyone worried about being made irrelevant in an era of technological transformation.
