JM shares his experiences on building, growing, and selling businesses, navigating personal trials, and the importance of having a growth mindset. He imparts wisdom on improving personal and professional development, advocating for the importance of nurturing the mind, body, and soul, the power of authenticity, and re-framing one's perspective towards upgrading rather than changing one's life. JM also provides helpful advice on overcoming limiting beliefs and emphasizes the importance of enjoying life's journey despite inevitable failures or setbacks. The Importance of Passion in Business So one of the things I really like about what you just said is really doing something for the joy of doing it right. Learning from Failure and Embracing Challenges But one of the things that I have found, and this is why I said, I love a good shit show is some of my best experiences have been lighting money on fire.   The Power of Attitude and Activity So I coach on, look, you are in complete control of two things, your attitude and your activity. Dealing with Personal Loss and Gaining PerspectiveSo I actually lost my dad a year and a half ago and he committed suicide. The Role of Vulnerability in Business Ultimately, the message that I want my dear listener to have is this, let the level of vulnerability, the level to which you can be vulnerable, be honest and talk about the hard stuff is actually what makes you referable. Personal Growth Outpacing Business Growth Yeah. And so one of the things, and I don't know how you feel about this, let's talk about coaching , mentorship, personal development. The Importance of Continuous Learning and GrowthYou cannot put a price tag on it. The Power of a Growth Mindset On my bathroom mirror, I always have my goals and I also have next to it what I call my daily reminders and have a growth mindset will always be there because if I ever stopped for a moment and think that I've arrived, I'm going backwards because in my opinion, people are doing one of two things. The Three Pillars of Personal Development:  Mind, Body, and Soul coach on three things. The Value of Time and Self-CareI heard the greatest advice. The Role of Money and Abundance in Life Really quick on the whole abundant thing, because when you say a million dollars, look, I started making a million dollars a year at 27 years old.... Overcoming Limiting Beliefs If you're listening, please write these down because they're really simple, but it's important. The Power of Identity and Self-PerceptionI gotta write that down. The Concept of Upgrading YourselfWhat are the other 2?. Final Thoughts and ReflectionsYou know what?.   Connect With JM LinkedIn: JM Ryerson Instagram: letsgowin365 Facebook: Let's Go Win with JM Ryerson  Youtube: Let's Go Win with JM Ryerson Website: Let's Go Win

Virginia Muzquiz, The Referral Diva®, Founder and Chief Connection Officer at Master Connectors, Inc. With more than 2 decades of experience generating business by referral, Virginia has been teaching entrepreneurs and small business owners the art and science of filling their sales funnels with high quality , on-demand referrals.  She calls her process Referral Alchemy and when fully implemented, it can quite literally infuse tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of dollars into your business without a single dollar in ad spend. You see, most of the business owners in your network are running unconscious referral algorithms. They don't really think about you until someone asks for a recommendation, and then they drop your name. If you are lucky, you've met a couple of referral archeologists who keep you top of mind and are willing to DIG in their network to see what opportunities they can find hidden in their “Rolodex.” And then, there are the elusive referral alchemists who can seemingly make referrals appear out of thin air! Jim Rohn said we are the average of the 5 people we spend the most time with… so if you want to hang out with the alchemists, you need to learn to BE an alchemist… and that is what working with Virginia can help you do!

I'm actually a casual observer. Thoughts on Breathing Breathing is what ties the mind to clarity. I think breathing is what gives me clarity, focus and vision. Suggested Resources Book: Anything by Dr. Wayne Dyer App: iTunes - Meditative music which I preview on Pandora and then purchase on iTunes Also search for Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. It's a Buddhist chant. Bullying Story I'll tell you a story because it does have that 'if I had known how to deal with it different' slant because I actually had a similar situation. I was 12 years old, 11 or 12 and it was in fifth grade and I was invited to Dana Amoli's birthday party. I felt like, oh my God, I made it. Dana was going to have me over to her house. I was going to get to go to the party and everything. What I didn't know is I was the entertainment. Like if you've ever seen the movie mean girls, like I was the entertainment. So after all the parents went to bed, it probably was 11 or 12:00 at night. The girls, they were all doing that thing where you lay down and you do light as a feather, stiff as a board and lift with two fingers. Well, they got me to lay down, but instead of doing light as a feather stiff as a board, they held me down. They smeared me with green Jello and they shoved me in a closet and that's where I slept. I pounded on the door. I begged for them to let me out. And they didn't let me out until the morning. I can't even remember really what happened because I'm sure that Mrs Amoli was horrified and talked to my mother. I don't remember. That moment is like sticky and in the dark and laughing and, you know, that was just like, it's so wow. It's so present for me and how cruel and ucky that was.

In this episode, Jim and Tyson discuss the benefits of building a good and strategic referral network. Usually the best cases, the most qualified leads, come through a referral. Connect with people. That will lead to referrals down the road. http://www.bni.com/: Network with people, build connections, get referral partners and build trust. Virginia Muzquiz: https://www.linkedin.com/in/virginiamuzquiz: BNI connected. The Referral Institute. It will help you build connections. If you give referrals you will end up gaining. Refer clients you can’t handle to other lawyers and make efforts to have them call somebody else that you know does that practice. And make sure that attorney knows that client comes from you, so they’ll know they’re getting something from you. This is very valuable. When you give a referral, explain why you are connecting them. Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion, by Robert B. Cialdini. Harper Business; Revised edition (December 26, 2006) “People give referrals to show that they’re connected” When you refer - or, before you refer-, you are pre qualifying the person before they even contact the lawyer, and you are helping the lawyer and the client. Be that guy that everyone goes to: Be “The Hub”, so you can start dishing up the cases and definitely grow your network. Hacking’s Hack: https://overcast.fm/.

An app that allows you to schedule up all of your social media network posts.Very easy to use and it saves a lot of time. Be careful of how many posts you schedule and when you do it.
