I want to talk about the word problem. We talked about the word bad, hard, difficult,
challenging. Yes or yes? I want to talk about the real problem word. And the word
is itself. "Problem." When you have a problem what does it do to your
psychology? Flushes it down the toilet, right? But I want you to understand that
everything you perceive as a problem is actually a problem with perception. The
person with the problem is the person with the problem. How many of you ever
identify someone else in your life as your problem?
Have you ever done that? You point the finger someone say, "That person is my
problem." And if that person would stop behaving this way or acting this way or
maybe cease to exist, I would be happier. How many of you get what I'm talking
about? Okay? The person with the problem however is actually the what? The problem.
Because the problem is only in our perception. Let me tell you what that
means real quick. I have an absolute undying unfailing commitment to break
through. I've done over 5,000 belief breakthroughs on my own mind. And the
reason why I've done that is because I am controlling my transformation. The
difference between $100,000 and a million dollars is a comfort level. And
the difference in a million in a billion is a comfort level. So, by the way, if your
barometer is set at thinking a million dollars there's a lot of money, you're
probably not going to make it. You'll be in pursuit of it it'll seem like a
positive thing. But there's also a fear and a scarcity that is ruling a part of
your mind which means that it's partially unattainable. And that's
because we have ideas that we have not money.
This is your perception. In every second, you're processing twenty million bits of
information. 20 million bits of information every second. But you
consciously cannot perceive all of it. It's too much. So we get it on a
conscious wavelength. Consciously when we filter it out of the 200 million, do you
know how much of it we actually get to see? We can actually perceive 200 to 400
bits of information. Let's like a drop in the ocean my friends. By the way, in
everything that you perceive, right now, if I'm working on making my next hundred
million dollars. Is it possible that there's a person an opportunity here in
this room that can assist me with that? Is it possible? But not if I have
prejudiced my perception. So, I have 20 million bits of information.
I'm only perceiving 200 of them. A tiny little drop. And the question is which
one are you actually seeing? You're seeing however you have habituated your
perception. Your mind is habituated by your beliefs. So, for just a moment, let me
ask you some questions. I'm going to throw out some beliefs and if one of
them connects with you from any point of your life, I want you to count it as a
point. For example, if I were to say I can't do it. And you're like,
"Oof, I say that sometimes or I think it's sometimes. That's a part of my operating
system." Then you would say, 'That's a point." Get it? So, I want you to see how many of
these different ideas you identify with. We'll start with that. "I can't do it. I'm
not fast enough. I'm too old. I'm too young. I don't know how." That's a problem.
"I'm not good-looking enough.
I'm too fat. I'm not smart enough. It's too hard. That's too much money. I don't
have money for that. It takes money to make money." How many points see yet?
Raise your hand if you got... Count them up. If you can identify with at least 5
of those statements, put your hands up if you got at least 5. Okay, raise your
hand if you got 7 or more. 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. We have a winner folks.
It's CJ. Give it up for him. It's okay. Yes. No, no. Thank you.
Glad you here by the way. Those 12 beliefs that CJ has they prejudice this
perception. So for example, let's say there was an opportunity for CJ in his
business to produce an extra $50,000. But it was going to
require some innovation and some new intelligence he doesn't possess. Is he
disposition to see that as an opportunity, yes or no? No. Why not? Why
can't he see it? Because he has a prejudice against it. Limiting beliefs
are dangerous because what they do is they prejudice your vision. Your
perception. Your activated reticular system is basically the part of your
brain combing through all this information trying to say, "I have to comb
through all of this amazing amount of information to find what we're looking
for." If you have a belief that says, "I can't do it." And what you actually want
is what? Can't. And then when you can't you're validated. That's weird.
This is really weird. So by the way. You're going to make your limiting
beliefs and your limitless beliefs true. This is why we have to get rid of them.
If you can't purge the limiting beliefs from your system,
you'll prejudice your opportunities and you're not going to see opportunity. It's
right for your nose. But you can't have it because your mind
is too busy getting what you really want. Which is too fat, too slow, too old, too
dumb. Because those are once. Whatever your limiting belief is, you want it.
Raise your hand if you think that's real jacked up? I should see every hand on
that one. I'm... Well, I'm trying to make an argument over these 4 days that you
guys get like raging pissed over anything that's in your head that is
holding you back. Like, "Get it out of here!" Because when you do, you start getting
everything that you want. What you really really want. Tell me what you want. What
you really, really want. Tell me. (Sorry.) Alright, so I'm glad they were slow on that
cue. They did not let me get myself. So, problems. First of all, the first problem
is believing that you have problems. Does it... Will it serve you? How many of you
have inappropriately leverage to the word problem to produce negative
emotions in the past? Because you get that the byproduct of perceiving a
problem as a negative emotion. And then when you get a negative emotion, are you
more or less capable of overcoming the problem? More or less capable of
overcoming the problem, folks? You're less capable. Show up. Way too slow, what
happened? Pause, sit down. Guys, one second. This is
really important. You remember all the times in your life they told you that
practice makes perfect. That's a lie. Perfect practice makes
perfect. You guys get that? Never train lame physiology when retraining your
psychology. We are linking your body to your heart, to your mind. We're
restructuring your belief system. Do not lag. Do not do it with less energy.
Because how you do some things is how you do all things. So, don't do that. Show
up! I want you to understand that problems
are a problem in your perception and they are indicative of a problem with a
belief. Instead of solving the problem solve the error in your thinking so that
you don't have to relive it as a pattern. A belief will show up over and over
again until you can reconcile it. It will never stop showing up until the day you
die. They don't die because when you make a decision about yourself you make it
forever. It's never going to change on its own. Until you can develop a process
to change what isn't working. Which is why later today, I'm going to freak
you out. You know, process seriously, it's going to like... Maybe make you wet yourself a
little bit. Don't be afraid. A little bit. The purpose of the exercise put you
outside of your comfort zone so you can face real fear. I'm going to put a process
in front of you that I've seen people break bones over. You all signed the
waiver, right? Oh, good. You'll have to sign the waiver to participate in the process.
There is some danger to exiting your comfort zone. How many of you get this?
You see everything that you want that you don't have is outside your comfort
zone. But what else is out there? Things you don't want. Things that have not gone
your way. Your fears are also out there. So, it's risky business. Oprah says, "The
thing you fear most has no power. The fear of it. It has the power." Facing
the truth set you free. Here's the truth for you to look at. Stop seeing problems.
Only see solutions. In my household, I've got my wife here and my kids. We have a
rule. My kids are never allowed to say, "Dad, we have a problem." And I would say,
"Try again! We don't believe in that p-word here." It's like, "Dad..." They're like,
"Oh, dad. Something happened I don't like." "Try again!"
"Dad, I'm having an experience." "Good. Tell me about your experience." Okay, what am i
doing? I'm training my children that some language is more
dangerous than others. If your life is full of hard, difficult challenge.
Hopeless, can't; Then those are your building blocks that you'll gravitate
toward the moment things get challenging. Hello! Everything to achieve anything you
haven't before is gonna be challenging. But you can make it impossible if you're
building with the wrong blocks. So, you eliminate them. They're no longer options
in your world.
