You want to hire that expert, sign up for that training, or go to that event. 

You want to invest in new software or attract that next-level team member with a bigger comp package. 

Or maybe you want to invest in infrastructure like the client in the coaching dialogue we’re highlighting today.

Whatever it is, you know that you need to invest in order to level up. 

Yet, the truth is… sometimes your CASH POOR, the funds are allocated for something else, or you’re just uncertain about future cash flow. 

You sit there pondering… Is making this investment an act of staking a claim for abundance and growth? Or is this just going to stress me out beyond my comfort level?

Listen into this coaching dialogue where we cover the practicalities and the nuances of making these kinds of decisions even when you’re running a multiple million dollar business… plus, I share my story of how this has changed for me over the years.

Listening to the guy changed my life

I remember sitting in a seminar, listening to this guy. He said: 

“You can make your annual income your monthly income.”

This guy ended up being my mentor, but at the time he was just “this guy.”

I didn’t really know him or who he was, but he stood up there and made this statement with total clarity.

There was no ambiguity or weird double-binds… (when you say one thing and mean another… i.e. you’re lying!)

Then he said… “It’s easier to make a lot of money, than a little money.”

My mind blew open at that point. 

It didn’t make any sense to me logically. But something inside of me told me that it was correct. 

It was his confidence that got me to wake up and lean in. I knew that he had lived this experience.

At the time, this wasn’t my experience at all. I was working my puttootee off. Crazy hours. Lots of stress.

I was enjoying myself when I wasn’t completely exhausted, and making good, but not extraordinary money. ($138k annually)

I wanted to make a lot more so I could have more freedom to do what I wanted. 

At some level I definitely thought I could. But I kept hitting a wall… thinking that if I just worked harder, I’d make more.

But as I sat in the front row and leaned in…

When I heard “this guy” speak, I realized I was living a middle class mindset.

I was believing (and living out) the idea that if I just worked hard enough the money would come. 

At the time, I wouldn’t have been able to tell you why this wasn’t true, but I knew in my bones that it wasn’t. 

But now… having lived it out… having created a multi-million dollar business… I know it through lived experience. 

For one, I’ve many times over made my annual income my monthly income. I also know why it’s easier to make a lot of money than a little money.

And if I did it… so can you. 

Everyone has the potential to make as much money as they want… as consistently as they want…

But not everyone executes on it. Why is that??

The answer: You’ve got to want the freedom more than your fear of failure.
