You Are Not What You Think

Let's do an experiment:

I want you to imagine a scene from your childhood...

Pick a childhood experience you remember clearly. Something you can see, feel, maybe even smell, as if you were really there.

Got it?

Ok, now I've got a question for you:

Were you really there at the time that happened?

You might be thinking: What a stupid question... Of course I was there when it happened, how else would I remember it...?

But here's the bombshell:

You were't there.

Not a single atom in your body today was there when that event took place. Every bit of you has been replaced many times over (this is why you eat).

This isn't some "woo woo" theory, it's science. It takes seven years for every cell in your body to regenerate.

This brings us to an important question:

What are we if we're not the stuff of which we're made?

We have memories of events more than seven years ago, yet we were not physically there seven years ago. If we were matter, we wouldn't be able to remember events more than seven years ago.

If that doesn't make the hair stand up on the back of your neck, read it again until it does, because it's important.

Why is it important?

Because the entire human race has a gnarly bias towards material things. We say something is "solid" when it's trustworthy, we say things like: Hard facts, material evidence, solid advice, tangible results, concrete reason.

Why does this matter? (note word "matter")

Because this bias makes us believe immaterial things aren't "real". Yet, we've established the fact that "we" are not "material", so are we fake?

Here's the problem with this bias:

Most humans believe they are born the way they are and they can't change. They believe that some people are born smart, successful, good at sales, good at numbers, good at speaking etc...

They believe talent is a physical advantage some people are born with in their body's and mind's. And there's no way to physically obtain this...

If this were true, by age seven these "talented" people would have lost it.

So what is talent if its not physical?

Talent and skill come from the arrangement and interconnection of the matter in your body and mind. The patterns and firing sequences of neurons in your brain and their interconnection to every nerve in your body.

It's the interconnection between things, not the things themselves.

How does this happen?

From practice. Nothing but exposure to something over time. Time, consistency, intensity and repetition. This is how all "talent" is formed.

This is how "you" are formed. (and you're the architect).

Why am I talking about this?

My job is to help people start their own businesses, get clients, make money and build the life that they want.

Most people think that this is pure tactics, logic, reason, numbers, accounting, marketing, sales, funnels, ads etc...

It's not.

Most of what I do is helping people see that they are not who they think they are. It's helping them see that they are who they chose to be.

Until this moment of realization, no amount of tactics, logic, reason and numbers will help them succeed. Believing these things will help them succeed is like believing a bandaid will fix a broken femur.

First we fix the human, then we give the human the tools. It's a combination of both that really makes people explode into productive, furious action.

Now... A question for you...?

Are you interested in starting your own property portfolio and creating the life that you want?

If you are, you'll need to change who you are as a person. Because who you are right now may not have those things. You need to figure out the version of you that would have those things and then become them.

People don't stay as they are and just ahead... They become the person who deserves it, and this person isn't who they used to be.

Does it work? Yes. Is it hard? Yes. Is it worth it? 100%.
