Podcasts about gold turn your obstacles

Too many real estate pros settle for “good enough,” believing the next level, more listings, higher commissions, true freedom, is out of reach.  The truth is: real estate success doesn't come from luck, it comes from clarity, confidence, and the courage to ask for what you want. Top producers aren't just winging it. They're intentional. They ask bold questions. They go after mentorship. They're clear on where they're headed and who can help them get there. You can get what you want in this business, but it starts with asking the right questions and being specific about what you're after.  Whether that's finding the right mentor, learning from someone who's built what you're trying to build, or getting access to resources that shortcut your learning curve. In this episode, I'm joined by award-winning author and entrepreneur Greg Reid. We dive into how to go after the life and business you want, and why you should never let someone's opinion become your limit.   A dream written down with a date becomes a goal. A goal broken down into steps becomes a plan. A plan backed by action makes your dreams come true. -Greg Reid   What You'll Learn in This Episode Leverage your strengths, manage your weaknesses We have to build our businesses around what we do best. How do we grow without letting weak spots hold us back? The difference between opinions and counsel Most agents get stuck taking advice from people who've never built what they're trying to build. How do we find counsel instead of opinions? The power of connections Strategic relationships can open doors to listings, partnerships, and life-changing growth. How do we network with purpose?

SHOW NOTES KEY IDEAS: ADVICE FROM ALICIA TOMLINSON: DO GOOD WORK: Alicia was very clear on this.  It does not matter how well you market or how much people like you.  If you do not make a good product, people are not going to buy it.  Alicia was careful to say that she does not strive for perfection, because that is unreachable.  But, she does strive for "excellence!" DEVOTE THE TIME: Alicia talked about her late nights at Kinko's, printing out materials at 1 or 2am.  You have to put the time in up front, to reach the point where it all pays off in the long term. BEST BUSINESS ADVICE THAT ALICIA TOMLINSON HAS RECEIVED: FAIL: I thought a lot about what Alicia said here.  Originally she told me that you should not be afraid to fail.  I changed it to just "Fail."  Everyone is going to fail in some way or another along an entrepreneurial venture.  So, go fail!  You are not going to figure things out until you see what does not work.  You can can call this a failure.  But you can also call it a learning experience.  Go get it over with. PERSONAL HABIT THAT ADS TO ALICIA TOMLINSON'S SUCCESS: DISCIPLINE: Alicia is very disciplined.  She works when she is supposed to work.  She adheres to her deadlines.  This has been one of my learning curves as I have entered entrepreneurship.  Being disciplined with my time is one of the skills that I had to acquire.  If you are not already disciplined, you will too. LINKS RECOMMENDATIONS FROM ALICIA TOMLINSON: Link to apply for Federal EIN: LINK Shopify makes it easy to open an online store by providing all the tools and help you need. Click here to try it for free! BOOK RECOMMENDATION: Alicia had three book recommendations.  All of them deal with concepts that will encourage you to keep moving forward as an entrepreneur.  Crush It!: Why NOW Is the Time to Cash In on Your Passion is a great book that I read early on in my journey.  I need to go back and read it again.  Alicia points out that Gary V. makes it clear that no matter what your interest is, when you become the go to resource on this niche, you can "crush it!" The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich (Expanded and Updated) is another great book that Alicia recommended.  I have read this one as well.  This book is all about doing the work up front, so you can reap the rewards later. Neither Alicia nor I are anywhere close to working only 4 hours in a week.  But, if a week comes along that we only want to put in 4 hours, we can! Three Feet from Gold: Turn Your Obstacles in Opportunities (Think and Grow Rich) is a book that I have not read yet, but I have heard the story.  Alicia liked to use this book to inspire her students, but it is definitely the right message for any entrepreneur.  Don't stop!  You might only be "three feet from gold!"

A century ago Napoleon Hill began the research that ultimately resulted in his extraordinary bestseller Think and Grow Rich. Since its publication in 1937, with more than 100 million copies sold worldwide, the book has inspired generations of men and women to turn their dreams into reality with its wise and effective principles of self-motivation, leadership, service, and achievement culled from Hill's interviews with visionaries of his day. Now, a hundred years later, in Three Feet from Gold, a young entrepreneur (AKA Greg Reid) whose life is falling apart finds himself retracing Hill's steps after a serendipitous encounter with a powerful businessman who sees the young man's potential and sets him on a challenging journey of personal, spiritual, and financial growth.   Get your own copy of Three Feet from Gold: Turn Your Obstacles into Opportunities! by Sharon L.

Sharon Lechter is the former CEO of Rich Dad and Pay Your Family First. She is an entrepreneur, #1 New York Times and international bestselling author, philanthropist, international speaker, mentor, licensed CPA and a Chartered Global Management Accountant.  Sharon Lechter is the co-author with Robert Kiyosaki of the international bestselling books Rich Dad, Poor Dad, co-author with President Donald Trump of Why We Want You to Be Rich: Two Men, One Message, co-author with Greg S. Reid of Three Feet from Gold: Turn Your Obstacles into Opportunities!, and author of Outwitting the Devil: The Secret to Freedom and Success and Think and Grow Rich for Women: Using Your Power to Create Success and Significance. She and Greg Reid just released the new book Success and Something Greater: Your Magic Key. She was a member of Presidents George W. Bush and Obama’s Advisory Council on Financial Literacy  Podcast Highlights What has been happening with Sharon Lechter over the last five years?  Sharon has been through some pretty difficult times during the past five years, having lost her younger son. She ran her life in neutral for a while thought that if she wasn’t going to play big in her life she should probably retire. She got some push back from her family and made the decision to re-fire instead of retire. In changing her attitude from one of mourning to there being more for her to do amazing things started to happen. She found her passion for writing again and her latest book  in being released in a few weeks. She is now recommitted to living life to its fullest and giving people information to take control of their financial lives. Living Life in Neutral Comfort turns into complacency. So many of us in life are in neutral because we do the exact same things day after day. The only thing that changes us in a state of complacency is a crisis, and that puts our lives into chaos. The only way out of the chaos is to be creative again. You’ve had your successes and your learning opportunities, there are other people who can benefit from what you know. The more you start giving the more you are going to start feeling alive again, supporting others will get you out of neutral and back into drive. The importance of your environment and your associates are paramount. Are you putting yourself into your place of greatest potential? When you’re an entrepreneur, when you have the right people around you will keep your head above water when you feel like you’re sinking. Surround yourself with people that challenge you, that are strong where you are weak, so that you have the greatest opportunity. Are you putting negative thoughts into your brain or empowering thoughts that help you see the world of possibility? Have you added value to someone’s life today? Success is more than money, it’s also about contribution and impact.  Refiring Your Life It took a while for Sharon to come to terms with the loss of her son. It wasn’t until someone asked her if she realized how many people she could help if they knew that someone like her had gone through something like that. A failure is an occurrence, not a definition. Too many people with a failure in their life feels like it defines them, and it doesn’t. You just have to pick yourself back up and redirect your energy. Success is not a single pathway with a special one size fits all key, for Sharon success is about how you feel about yourself when you look in the mirror. If you want to succeed, do the homework and look towards where you want to go. How does experiencing failure events define your idea of success? No one has ever had a straight line to success. Failure is a learning opportunity, a chance to recalibrate and refocus on the end goal.

Dr. Greg S. Reid is author of the Think and Grow Rich Series and Founder of Secret Knock. New York Times' bestselling author of Three Feet from Gold: Turn Your Obstacles into Opportunities! with Sharon Lechter (which turned into a successful documentary), Thoughts Are Things: Turning Your Ideas Into Realities with Bob Proctor, Stickability: The Power of Perseverance, which is part of the Think and Grow Rich series, and the new book Wealth Made Easy: Millionaires and Billionaires Help You Crack the Code to Getting Rich.   Podcast Highlights Who is Greg Reid? Greg grew up in the mean streets of Delmar, California. When he was younger and graduated from high school, Greg decided to skip college and instead get a place of his own and find work in sales and marketing. His father told him that he would never make a living talking to people which was obviously not true. Parents often mean well for their children, but that doesn’t mean they always give good advice or have the right information. Greg believes his super power is not caring what other people think. People have told him what Greg could not do his entire life and he went and did them anyway. If you spend your day seeking counsel and ignoring opinions, that’s the day your life will change. Greg knows the power of working towards his strengths and hiring his weaknesses. When writing his first book, Greg was turned down 268 times in a row. He realized that he was missing something and hired a ghost writer to shore up what was clearly one of his weaknesses. What would you say to entrepreneurs that are hearing no right now? Greg spent three years travelling the world meeting people worth millions of dollars and asked them exactly what steps they did. One of them told him that you have to get to bat 26 times. You have to swing the bat 26 times in business before you hit a homerun. This means that if you want to succeed, all you need to do is keep trying. Stop planning, stop caring about the way you will get to your goal and instead just start taking action towards that goal. The most successful people are also the most available people. Seeking Counsellors If you can talk to people on a human level and you can understand what they want and give them what they desire, you can ultimately have everything you want in life.. Motivation Greg loves what he does, which is why he keeps doing it. Greg managed to complete his bucket list last year, a list which included some pretty incredible things that seemed completely impossible when he wrote them down. As soon as you have a dream and move toward it, you look for unexpected opportunity and people will be surprisingly eager to help you. Once he completed his bucket list, Greg felt a little lost. That was until he discovered the fun of helping his son accomplish things on his bucket list. Wealth Made Easy Time plus land is wealth. Wealthy people are often happy to share how they did it, mainly because no one ever asks. People know about the law of attraction and action, but they often forget the law of gestation. You have to plant the seeds of success and let the law of gestation run it’s course. If you want to make a lot of money, all you have to do is create a product, good, or service that will people will save their money to have. Following your passion and the money will follow is one of the biggest lies that people in the world believe. Stop following your passion and look for and seize opportunity. There’s a concept called CPC, it stands for Clues, Patterns, and Choices. Everybody will show you who they are by giving you clues and acting in patterns, ultimately it’s your choice whether you interact with them.

What if I told you that just about everything you think you know about wealth and prosperity is WRONG? That the platitudes you hear about ‘following your passion’ and ‘turning thoughts into things’ are, at best, misleading and may be sending you down the wrong path? So, what is it that the super-wealthy and successful understand that you and I do not? What separates a millionaire from a billionaire? And what lessons can we learn from the stories of today’s most iconic figures? Serial entrepreneur Greg Reid is a bestselling author, keynote speaker and filmmaker. Tapped by the Napoleon Hill Foundation to continue the Think and Grow Rich legacy, Greg has had the good fortune to sit down with the most successful contemporary leaders and learn how they persevered through challenging times and capitalized on unexpected opportunities. He has been named one of Entrepreneur magazine’s Top 5 Keynote Speakers and Entrepreneur of the Year by the United Nations’ Novus Summit, among many other awards and honors. Today on the podcast, Greg joins Oliver to turn conventional wisdom on its head and share the secrets he learned from interviewing the most successful people in today’s world, including Steve Wozniak, Evander Holyfield and Ferruccio Lamborghini. He explains why people in the 100 Million Dollar Club tend to be unhappy (while billionaires are content) and discusses what’s wrong with ideas like ‘thoughts are things’ and ‘pursue your passion and the money will follow.’ Listen in for Greg’s insight on turning obstacles into opportunity and learn how to apply the lessons of the wealthy to find success in YOUR life!

When the market crashed in the late 2000’s, millions of Americans lost their homes—and most investors bailed out of the real estate business. Scott Carson, on the other hand, bought in, buying debt from banks and helping homeowners get back on their feet. He built a successful business on the principle of giving back, finding creative ways to help as many people as possible stay in their homes. So, what is the value proposition for investing with an open heart? Scott is the founder and CEO of We Close Notes, a real estate investment firm based in Austin, Texas, that focuses on buying pools of distressed assets direct from banks and hedge funds. Scott has 18 years of experience in mortgage, finance and banking, and he has been actively buying notes on residential and commercial properties for 14-plus years. Scott is also a sought-after speaker and educator, working to help others learn the business of note investing and build their own lucrative real estate portfolios. Today, Scott joins Emerald to explain how his personal experience as a ‘deadbeat borrower’ informed his calling to help homeowners get back on their feet. He shares the value in regularly expanding your comfort zone and discusses how to eliminate negative energy from your atmosphere. Scott also describes how entertaining his inner child feeds his creativity and offers insight around fostering a spirit of ‘coopetition.’ Listen in to understand Scott’s practice of sharing what he wants to accomplish and learn why the most successful people are also the most giving!

Without a roadmap, you'll never know where you're going. But even with one, some routes will get you to your destination faster than others. My guest today is author, speaker, coach, and radio personality Lane Ethridge, the founder of Changing Lanes International. His business helps other businesses find more success – while helping the leaders of those businesses live life “in the fast lane” so they can get to their destination sooner. Lane tells me in this episode that many leaders follow what they think will bring them money, rather than what they really want to do. The trick is, Lane says, that when leaders follow their gut they more often find success. If your plan to become successful is a roadmap, Lane says your gut feelings act a GPS – providing directions and helping you get where you want to go in the shortest time possible. But too many people quickly driving forward still spend too much time looking back, wondering if they're on the best route to success. Business owners, Lane says, will have more success if they stop looking in the rearview. Our hindsight can become somebody else's foresight. @misceLANEeous via @RustyLionAcad #mentorship #coaching No matter how well you drive, though, life in the fast lane is going to come with a few bug splats on the windshield. Remember – those ugly smears only take up a small portion of the glass. You can make the smears worse by staring at them too intently, or even by turning on the windshield wipers to “fix” the problem. “Whether a ‘bug' is cancer, death, or bankruptcy, we focus so long on that we forget we should be doing something else,” Lane tells me. “Our distraction makes us forget where we're going even though 99 percent of the windshield is still clear.” Want to hear Lane talk about these concepts – and many more – that could help put your life in the fast lane? Use the player above. Listen to this episode to hear me speak with Lane Ethridge, founder of Changing Lanes International about life in the fast lane and more: The difference between tests in school and life. What you have to do to earn money in life. Being conned out of $20,000. Distractions that hold many leaders back. Why success sometimes come after your biggest failures. The thing you own that is your best vehicle to success. Getting fired six times by the same man and still going to work for him. The reason Lane carried a yardstick everywhere with him for 400 days. Read these books to help you live life in the fast lane: “Rich Dad Poor Dad: What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!” by Robert Kiyosaki “Think and Grow Rich,” by Napoleon Hill and Arthur Pell “Three Feet from Gold: Turn Your Obstacles in Opportunities,” by Sharon L.
