- All right, welcome back to the channel,
Max Tornow here, today we're in Finland,
and in this video I wanna be talking about
how to become more self reliant,
and the stages that one has to go through
in order to get there.
Now why is that on a business channel like this?
Well, because I feel like when you build a business,
you actually go through these three stages
of self reliance until the very end point
that can kind of be expanded upon
infinitely where you have a business
that not only helps you have a great life
but also helps others and actually does a lot of good
for it, you know, other people,
maybe for people in your closer environment
as well as people that you don't even know, you know,
maybe your clients, maybe people that don't even know you.
So if you like the idea of building a business
that kind of supports you,
and if you like the idea of doing something good
and kinda giving back to others,
which is I think a big reason
why I should be running a business
and this video is for you pay attention.
Let's get started.
- [Max' Voiceover] Have you ever wondered
whether there's more to life
than a boring dead end nine to five job?
Have you ever dreamed about breaking free,
you know, traveling the world,
making good money and just enjoying life.
No more office dress code, no morning commute, no boss,
this channel is for you.
So here's to your freedom.
- Alright, so the first point is that
I think it's a great way to kinda think about
building a business as this journey that you go through
from not being self reliant at all, which is stage one,
where you can't even produce good results for yourself,
all the way to stage two,
where you're able to produce good results for yourself,
where you're able to give yourself freedom,
be self reliant, be self employed, literally.
And, and going to stage three,
which means you build a business in a way
where it doesn't only support you and sustain your life,
but it actually has a very positive effect on others.
And even the world, if you allow me
to kind of think about it in a little bit of
a utopian terms here.
So anyways, so yeah, let's talk about this.
So, first stage is stage one
where you're not even self reliant to yourself.
So you don't have control over yourself,
you don't have control over your own happiness,
and you're at the mercy of others.
This is where unfortunately most people are in.
Okay, this is where 90% of people are in.
90% of people that are unhappy with their job,
unhappy with their life situation,
unhappy with the amount of money that they're making.
Now, there's even an extremer form
of this stage one, and that is when people complain,
and they put literally the responsibility away from them,
and they put the responsibility on others, right?
That is where you hear things like,
Oh, you know, it's the government's fault.
It's the system's fault.
Or it's the goddamn one percent's fault.
It's other rich people that keep me
from getting rich myself.
And, you know, I'm poor, because the rich people
are taking it away from me.
Now, that's a very, very toxic stage to be in
because it doesn't empower you.
It pushes responsibility away from you,
and it even pushes the possibility away from yourself
that you can actually ever get out of that
and trust me, I've been there myself,
in my early 20s,
like growing up my entire teenage years growing up,
I thought, you know, the government is holding me back.
The rich people are holding me back.
Everybody's holding me back,
my parents, my environment, my friends, my teachers,
the fact that I'm living in a 5000 people cow town,
in the Austrian Alps, that's where I grew up,
shout out to my hometown, beautiful hometown.
The fact that I was living there,
I thought is the very fact,
is the very thing that holds me back
from reaching my dreams and becoming wealthy
and becoming free.
And that's extremely, extremely toxic.
And the only way to get out of this level,
is to do two things.
Number one, to be aware of that,
that you are blaming others,
that you're pushing responsibility away from that.
And number two, realizing that you can indeed get out
and I don't know what exactly the wake up call was for me,
but I don't know, in my early 20s I kinda,
I kinda thought to myself,
"Listen, Max, you're studying right now
"to become a teacher in high school for Latin and English.
"Is that really what you want?"
And I was so, I was so disgusted by that idea
of becoming a teacher sorry if you're listening
and you're a teacher and you love what you do,
that's amazing, for me it wasn't the right thing.
I was so disgusted by that idea,
I was almost afraid that I'd end up
doing something that I don't love for the rest of my life,
but I said, you know what,
I'm gonna put all my eggs in one basket,
I'm gonna try to make it happen no matter what.
And I either make it happen,
building my own freedom, traveling the world, being wealthy,
or I die trying,
and I kinda put it like that.
Now, I don't say you have to do it like that,
In fact, most of the clients that I'm working with
now we recommend them,
hey, stay in your job
as you're building the business on the side,
we've developed systems now where you can do it much more,
much more optimal, much more optimized
and much more, with much less risks than I,
than when I used to do it.
So stay at your job until you make around $10,000 a month
or until you make a significant higher amount
of what you would make with your job
and then you can go quit your job.
So I do not recommend you just burning the bridges,
but maybe burn the bridges in your head and say,
Okay, this is what I want.
I understand that I've been maybe blaming others,
but it is my responsibility and only my responsibility.
And it is possible for me to get out.
That's how you get from stage one to stage two.
And stage two is a wonderful stage.
Stage Two is where you have something
where you are in control of yourself, okay.
Where you might not be at the mercy of others,
where you might not be at the mercy of your urges,
right, of maybe smoking weed every day
or not being able to get out of bed, right.
You're in control, you've developed the discipline,
you've developed the momentum,
maybe you've developed the habits
that allow you to take goals that you want to reach
and reach them, right, you work on them, and you reach them
and you work on them consistently until you reach them
and then you reach another goal.
That is stage two, and that's amazing.
Now in the business context,
that is a stage where you say,
okay, I've built my own business, right,
on this channel here we're talking about online coaching,
online service providing businesses,
I've built my own business, I have responsibility over that.
I'm able to generate leads,
I'm able to generate a good income for myself
and I'm in control.
(upbeat music)
Now this is amazing, this is absolutely wonderful,
this is a beautiful place to be at.
And again, you get there
by taking over responsibility for your life.
And in the ideal world,
you don't only take responsibility for yourself,
but you also get help, right?
You get a mentor, of myself had always had mentors,
which I'm super grateful for,
because they helped me getting there much faster
after I tried to figure it out myself.
And then I said, you know what, let me get a mentor.
So, I kinda lost my train of thoughts here,
but what you have to understand is that,
that stage two is something that not many people are in.
And that stage two is definitely a stage two
where you could see yourself staying
for the rest of your life.
But there's one more stage, and that is stage three.
And that is the best stage
that I could really, really recommend you getting there.
It's like a little bit of a last 10% of epicness
on top of stage two,
and that is where you've become so self reliant,
that you actually expanding your circle
of positive influence from only yourself to others.
Okay and this might start with
the people in your immediate environment, right?
Maybe your partner, maybe a family, your children,
your parents, your best friends,
maybe you start building a small team around you, right?
Because you kinda maybe wanna remove yourself
from your own business processes a little bit.
So you work on the business and not in the business.
And that can be expanded infinitely
that could be expanded,
where you actually change the world
for a better place, right?
Now, I'm not saying I'm doing that,
I definitely haven't to expand my,
my reach of influence so much that I say
I'm changing the world.
But I've definitely expanded my reach of influence
beyond myself, and even beyond my team
and beyond my clients.
And even if it's just a tiny little bit that,
you know, someone messages me saying,
hey, you inspire me to take an action
or something like that,
or somebody comments, something positive on a video.
That's great, that's amazing.
And I think that is the ultimate last stage of self reliance
that everybody should strive for.
Saying that, basically, you're at a level
where you're taking care of yourself in such a great way,
that you can then go ahead and say,
hey, I have so much positivity,
productivity and epicness going on
that I can literally be that positive impact for others,
it's overflowing come, everybody have a piece of the pie
and let's share, let's be part of a wonderful
upward spiral of positivity, of opportunity,
of responsibility and that is a very, very wonderful thing.
And I, and somebody asked me the other day, like Max,
what is your deeper why?
Somebody asked me that on my Instagram account.
And I said the following.
And by the way, big shout out to my Instagram account.
And give me a follow if you haven't done so yet.
I'm replying to all the DMs there.
I'm doing live streams on there.
I'm doing Instagram story, Q and As,
I'm posting on the feed very, very regularly.
I'm trying to slam as much positivity
and opportunity your way and also some real talk.
Okay, some harsh lessons
that some people might have to learn.
We're gonna show my Instagram here.
We're gonna put a link down the description as well,
highly recommend you checking it and out.
And what I said to the person who asked me,
hey Max, what is your deeper why,
I said, "Well, I want to expand my influence so much,
"that I help other people being free,"
Right, and this is the stage I'm at right now,
we have hundreds of clients that we've helped become free,
building their own freedom businesses,
oftentimes literally from scratch,
getting through the first five figures a month,
getting to the first six figures a month.
And in my head, if I help other people being free,
they become happier, just like I became happier
once I was able to be free and you know,
do my own thing and don't have to work anymore,
at a nine to five job.
And if I help other people getting there,
they become happier, and their positivity radiates
to the people in their environment, right.
And if the people in their environment,
become more positive and more self reliant,
and wealthier, then maybe that relates to more people,
and so on and so forth,
and that way I can kinda be part of,
of a circle of positivity, of an upward spiral.
And I like that, I like that idea of making the world
just a tiny little bit better of a place,
even if it's not a global political influence,
but it's the tiny little bit by tiny little bit
and then and I believe we will treat each other better.
We'll treat Mother Nature better,
we'll treat animals better, we'll treat everybody
and everything better around us.
And that is a wonderful thing.
And that stage of self reliance
has to be achieved at the very least stage two.
All right, so, you wanna get to a point
where you make so much money
that you don't have to worry about money anymore.
And then you wanna make more,
that you can have a positive financial influence
on others, that you know, when your dad gets sick,
or your mom gets sick,
you can you can afford their treatment.
If someone, one of your friends has troubles financially,
you know, maybe you can help them out,
like these things, I think, make the world
a tiny little bit better of a place.
And that's what you wanna do.
And that's why I love building a freedom business
because it literally forces you to go
from stage one of self reliance to stage two.
And then it inspires you to go from stage two
to stage three and that is a very, very wonderful thing.
So, it was a little bit more of a meta topic, if you will,
and I hope it inspires you to take action
when you say this sounds great.
I do I wanna be more self reliant,
and I do wanna have a positive influence
on my parents, on my family, on my children,
on my spouses and I wanna build my own freedom business,
then you can literally book a free consulting call,
either with me directly or with an expert from my team,
all you have to do is you click that link
that appears somewhere here right now,
or the link down the description below.
And you book a free call,
what we do on that free call,
is we'll be looking at your situation,
we'll be looking at what your strengths are.
And we'll be literally giving you a step by step plan
on how you can get started becoming your own boss,
as an online coach or as an online service provider.
So if you already have a skill,
and you wanna learn how to monetize it,
you'd be surprised how many skills can be monetized
in the world of online marketing, if you will,
then that call is for you.
Now, if you don't have a skill yet,
or you think you don't have a skill,
you have no clue what it is
that you could be offering people,
that call is for you as well.
We can analyze your strengths,
we can tell you what exact model fits best for you.
And even if you're making some money,
maybe you're making money offline already,
but you wanna scale it properly.
You wanna do it more consistently,
that call is for you as well.
So you do not need to have any prior business experience.
If you have it, obviously that's great,
but you don't need to do that.
And yeah, we have very limited spots.
So if the link in the description still works,
it means we still have a spot open for you.
The way this works is you click on that link,
the link brings you to a page, read what's on the page.
It's like your little, it's like your first little exam,
your first little test,
if you can actually maintain focus for 10 minutes
and read through the page.
And at the bottom of the page,
you fill out the application
and you book the exact date and time
where you want us to call you.
And, yeah, call is entirely for free,
no hidden fees, international fees whatsoever,
but you do have to be ready to implement
the things that we're telling you to do.
All right, so that being said,
thank you very much.
I appreciate the hell out of each and every one of you.
So maybe talk to you very soon and GiGi.
- Hello, I'm here with Bianca. - Hi,
- We just cracked over 100k in closed deals
since joining the one on one program.
- When he mentioned 100k, it was 100k per month.
- Yeah, 100k per month.
I think we have 300k,
we have already an eight person team
and it's super exciting to see how much of an impact
we can make right now,
because we are not thinking anymore in terms of money
or actually we think in terms of money,
but we've reached that point
where we see the money as a means
for accomplishing our purpose.
So it's awesome.
thanks a lot for all the help
and looking forward to see which results will we have
in six months from now.
