The words you use when you talk to yourself, or with others, are more important than you might think.
I recently read “The Biggest Bluff” by Maria Konnikova, where the author details her attempt at going from being a poker newbie to the World Series of Poker champion in the span of just one year.
During a session with coach Jared Tendler (a past guest of my podcast and a great guy), she commented that she “hoped” she would be able to do something …
Before she continued, Jared called her on it (poker pun intended) and highlighted the danger of saying the word “hope” in that situation.
It’s a weak word, and sets the person up for failure before they’ve even attempted something.
Like another smart guy, Yoda, once said: “Do or do not, there is not try”.
Or Henry Ford: “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right”.
It reminds me of all of the coaches who are now quivering in fear due to COVID-19, refusing to make any moves to grow their businesses because they’ve convinced themselves that nobody is buying during a global pandemic.
But I know they’re wrong …. my business is up over last last year, and Ethan Donati did something big by running a webinar that brought in over $500,000 in about three months in the COVID era!
Ethan is going to be showing how he did it in a virtual event taking place next week.
Even if your goal is more modest than half a million dollars, you’ll want to tune in to learn his funnel and apply the lessons to yours.
It’s happening on Thursday, August 27th at 6 pm EST and since there won’t be a replay sent around afterwards you’ll have to watch it live.
