  In this lessons episode, uncover why lasting success depends on consistent effort rather than
• 0:04
  instant results. Discover how embracing small actions creates long-term breakthroughs.
• 0:09
  Understand why focusing on progress instead of perfection builds resilience and explore how
• 0:13
  acting quickly on ideas turns opportunities into reality.
• 0:24
  You hear that spiritual message in a lot of different religions where you're trying to
• 0:29
  reach that level of consciousness. And I do believe that a lot of people don't take the first step
• 0:36
  into improving their lives just because there's this abundance of pessimism and negativity that
• 0:43
  really stop people from understanding what they can do. And I think that what is tough for people
• 0:50
  to figure out or wrap their mind around is to see the full path. So they don't understand how
• 0:56
  the micro action they take is going to eventually lead to the success they want in 10 years. And
• 1:01
  they just want the immediate and that's it. And if it's not immediate, it's not real. Or if it's
• 1:06
  not immediate, it's not valid. And that's wrong. Because I, you know, people that aren't entrepreneurs
• 1:13
  that don't go through this struggle. Entrepreneurs know this better than anything. I don't mean to
• 1:16
  speak to entrepreneurs in particular, but you ever ask an entrepreneur or anybody who's a success
• 1:20
  sports, you know, politics, anybody who has any sort of credibility in their, in their field,
• 1:25
  it's not overnight. It's, you know, a thousand of all these different. So it's like, just take that
• 1:30
  same mentality, apply it to any person. And if you want to be successful, it's not going to be the
• 1:35
  one thing. It's going to be the hundreds of thousands of things that you have to do. Um,
• 1:39
  anyway, that's that that's my, I don't want to take over this session. This is all, you know,
• 1:43
  just something I'd be a passionate about. It's very wise and people need reminded of that. That's
• 1:47
  also true in my case. I've often told people, yeah, I'm an overnight success. If you define
• 1:53
  overnight as 30 years. Yeah. It is none of us that I am aware of had an overnight success. Everybody
• 2:00
  put in their time. They put in their hours. They put in their work. And over time, they had little
• 2:06
  breadcrumbs of success that kept them going. But the, the vision is what kept them going.
• 2:12
  And the belief in themselves and the possibility of the vision becoming reality is what kept them
• 2:16
  going. And then at some point, you break through and you, you reach a level where people notice
• 2:22
  your success and to them, it seems like it was overnight because you just appeared. It's much like
• 2:30
  before the movie, the secret in 2006, I was pretty well known as an internet marketer as a copy
• 2:36
  writer because I was one of the first to go on the internet. I was considered an internet pioneer.
• 2:41
  And from that level of success, a lot of people took notice of me, a lot of people hired me.
• 2:45
  But then the movie, the secret comes out. And that thing blows across the planet. And suddenly,
• 2:52
  everybody sees me and everybody recognizes me and I go on Larry King live twice. And Oprah
• 2:58
  does three specials on the show and Newsweek and New York Times. And I'm being invited to speak
• 3:04
  all over the world. Suddenly, overnight, overnight, Joe is noticed. Yeah.
• 3:11
  All the time before, I was doing all the work to be in preparation for a phone call that I didn't
• 3:18
  even know was coming that would say, Hey, we read one of your books, which I wouldn't have written
• 3:22
  had I not taken the action to get it done. And we want to put you in this movie, which I didn't
• 3:27
  know was going to do anything. And then when I'm in the movie, it ends up being this intergalactic
• 3:33
  historic making film. But all of this was because I was working for 30 years to get to that point.
• 3:42
  So your point is well taken. And I think people need reminded of that. If they open their
• 3:47
  business today, they should not expect to sell out today. If they write a book this week,
• 3:53
  they should not expect it to be a best seller next week. They should be doing the plugging
• 3:58
  along, doing the action steps, and trusting that yeah, planting seeds. And a little later,
• 4:04
  you'll get the pluck the fruit. So let's talk about, let's talk about taking the first step.
• 4:12
  I was, you know, I was reading a little bit of the money, love, speed. So that's like that's
• 4:18
  your latest book. And I was, I was thinking about, you know, how do I, because obviously there's a
• 4:23
  whole bunch of things that I wanted to speak about in your life and what you've done. But
• 4:28
  it's sort of dovetailing quite nicely into this. How do you take that first action? You know,
• 4:33
  I think that that's primarily what the book is about. But I'll let you sort of say it in your
• 4:37
  words, because I want to, I want to build out on that. So I think that's very valid for like right
• 4:41
  now, because people for the first time are realizing jobs aren't secure. They don't know what's going
• 4:46
  on all time high unemployment. How do you take an action now? What's the next step?
• 4:51
  Yeah, that's a great question. There's so many things I want to say relevant to that question,
• 4:55
  because I want to kind of unpack it. Do it. Go forward. Go forward. All right. Well, first of all,
• 5:01
  you know, we're in a pandemic right now. And people are worried about the virus. And I've made
• 5:09
  some videos for Twitter and social media, Facebook and Instagram where I said there's two viruses.
• 5:16
  There's two viruses. Everybody's hearing about the first virus and everybody's nervous about
• 5:21
  the virus and everybody's going home and hiding because of the virus. And
• 5:27
  rightly so, we should pay attention to what the health authorities are telling us. Wash your
• 5:32
  hands, do the social distancing, stay at home, do all of that stuff, because you need to take
• 5:37
  care of your health. But I'm not dismissing that. But there's a second virus. And the second virus
• 5:42
  is worse than the first. The second virus is the virus of the mind. The second virus is fear.
• 5:50
  When people fall into fear because they're watching the news media, which I say the solution is turn
• 5:56
  it off. The mainstream news is just going to make you shudder in your shoes and they're great at
• 6:02
  programming you for fear and insecurity. So I say turn it off. And if you're really concerned
• 6:07
  about what's going on in the world, go on a mainstream news diet. Listen to the headlines
• 6:12
  for five minutes. See what you need to do. Turn the sucker off. The other thing that's going on
• 6:18
  is when we fall into fear, ironically, we lower our immune system. When we lower our immune system,
• 6:23
  we make it easier for the first virus to come and visit us. So what I've been advising people is
• 6:30
  we got to focus on the positive. Jason Miraz has a new song right now called Look for the Good.
• 6:36
  And boy, do I love that message because I wrote it. I recorded a song called Look for the Light.
• 6:41
  It's the same concept. Look for the good. Look for the light. Look for the positive. It's always
• 6:46
  there. It's the old Mr. Rogers thing. He says even in disasters, look for the helpers.
• 6:52
  There are people doing good things. In fact, I think the warriors of our times right now are the
• 6:58
  Amazon delivery drivers and the food service people who are coming to our door bringing us
• 7:05
  grub to eat. So we have new heroes out there. But what I say is you got to focus on the positive.
• 7:12
  Now this ties into what action do you take? If you focus on the positive, you can start to see
• 7:18
  with a little bit more clarity that there are opportunities here. In fact, you mentioned that there
• 7:22
  are millions of people who are unemployed. In my mind, I translate that to say there are millions
• 7:27
  of people who are about to become entrepreneurs. I think that what's going on with
• 7:34
  this pandemic is almost a divine conspiracy. It's almost like the divine, which I some people
• 7:42
  would call that God. You can call it the universe. You can call it source. You can call it the higher
• 7:47
  power. You can call it nature. Whenever you want to call it, that's bigger than all of us.
• 7:52
  I think it's sent us to our room. I think it's put us on notice.
• 7:57
  I think what this divine conspiracy is is a conspiracy for good. So let me explain that real quick,
• 8:07
  because when people are told go inside and what they're looking at is go inside your room,
• 8:12
  go inside your house. I reinterpret that in a metaphysical way. Go inside means go inside yourself.
• 8:21
  Go inside. This is our time to meditate, to contemplate, to reset, to reconnect. This is our
• 8:28
  time to be alone. And we're being told, stay away from others, at least six feet away,
• 8:33
  social distancing kind of a thing. So it's almost like we've been put on an enforce spiritual
• 8:39
  retreat. So okay, so now we're inside, we're meditating, we're contemplating, we're reflecting,
• 8:45
  and maybe we get to see that, what are some opportunities here? All those times we said,
• 8:50
  I wish I had time to fill in the blank. You now have time to do it.
• 8:55
  Anybody who's ever said, boy, if I had time, I'd write a book. Boy, if I had time, I'd learn how to
• 8:59
  play the saxophone. Boy, if I had time, I'd learn a language. Go to YouTube, type in how to fill
• 9:06
  in the blank. And there will be tutorials free for you to watch over the great gift that we didn't
• 9:13
  have a hundred years ago. And we had the other pandemic, the great gift being the internet,
• 9:17
  Facebook, social media, and what you're doing right here, using and leveraging it for good.
• 9:23
  So all of this is to say it's our time to go within. Now as we go within, we're going to get ideas.
• 9:29
  And as we get ideas, this is where action comes up. The whole point of the title, the title of the
• 9:36
  book is Money Love Speed. It's one of the eight laws of money. And Money Love Speed means that when
• 9:42
  you have an idea for a product or service, you want to speedily, quickly, rapidly act on it.
• 9:50
  Partly because when you have an idea, it feels good. And that feeling good is an energy, is an
• 9:58
  electricity that you can use to manifest your idea. One of the reasons I've had 80 some books, and in
• 10:06
  fact, you listed this as my most recent book. But while you were speaking, I released another book,
• 10:12
  the art. And this is because I know money loves speed. Yeah. So here we are acting on it. And this
• 10:22
  is what I tell people to do. And you have an idea, you see an opportunity, you need to act. Part of it
• 10:28
  is just using the momentum of the energy that came with the idea. Another part of it is I believe
• 10:35
  the universe, the cosmos, whatever you want to call it, collective unconscious, is feeding ideas
• 10:41
  to us. And they're gifts. And the sooner you act on an idea that comes as a gift, the sooner you will
• 10:46
  profit from it in the marketplace. I want to say one more thing because I'm on a roll with this.
• 10:51
  And like I said, I have a lot of things to say. It's good. One more thing when people consider action,
• 10:56
  they often say, well, I don't know what to do or I don't know where to start. And that's when they
• 11:00
  procrastinate. Well procrastination comes from overwhelm. And what I tell people, it's the old
• 11:07
  Theodore Roosevelt, Teddy Roosevelt said, do what you can with what you have right where you are.
• 11:13
  That's it. I tell people, look where your shoes are. All right, on your feet. What is the first
• 11:20
  baby step you can make right now? The baby step. I'm not asking you to complete a business plan
• 11:26
  or open the business or finish the book and write the end. I'm saying, what is the first step you
• 11:32
  can take right now? There's always a first step. An easy baby kindergarten simple first step.
• 11:40
  That's the step you take. And here's the profound great news. You take that step.
• 11:46
  The next baby step becomes apparent. You take that step. The next baby step becomes apparent.
• 11:53
  Steve Jobs said, you cannot connect the dots of your life looking forward. You can connect them looking
• 12:00
  backwards. But looking forward, you sit here looking out into the future and you don't know what the
• 12:05
  dots are. You don't know where the dots are going to lead. You can't explain it. You can't create the
• 12:09
  map to it because it doesn't exist yet. But if you look backwards, you can tell the story like I can
• 12:17
  now of how I got here. But the story of how I got here is so incredibly unpredictable. That I
• 12:23
  never would have been able to tell anybody how I got on the internet. We didn't know what the
• 12:27
  internet was. It didn't exist when I was in college or on an unemployed and broke in the 70s.
• 12:34
  Same with the movie The Secret. I never would have guessed I'd be in a movie because I didn't know
• 12:38
  that the movie was ever going to be made. You cannot predict, but you can look and see the baby step.
• 12:45
  And that, Scott, is where the first step is. But baby step, take that.
