YES Talk 277- A YesMasters Mantra & How You Achieve Big Dreams

What is this? This is real estate vortex. Who is this? This is not me. This is you. Okay? This is you. You are the energy core of the vortex. Now, a vortex is a giant swirling motion that draws everything into its center. Now, you guys have seen hurricanes, you've seen tornadoes. The outside, all of the vortex on the outside, there is massive motion. There is, like, chaos, turmoil. But what's in the center, it's absolutely calm. Right? When you go into the eye of the storm, there it is calm. So here is the mantra that I want you just to think as you go into this. In fact, write this down in your journal. I think it's brilliant. I am the eye. I am the eye of the storm. Write it down. I am the eye of the storm. I remain calm and centered regardless of anything. I am the eye of the storm. I remain calm and centered regardless of anything. I am the eye of the storm. I remain calm and centered regardless of anything. Okay, guys, how would. How do you achieve big dreams? How many of you feel like you need to learn how to dream bigger? That's it. You feel it or no? Do you feel like you need to learn to dream bigger? How do you create bigger dreams? The way you create bigger dreams is. Is exposure. Got to expose yourself to nicer shit. Got to expose your stuff. Expose yourself to bigger shit. To bigger achievers, to what's possible, to higher accomplishments. Darlene, after you get my coffee made, would you bring me some Rob Reports? Thank you. So one is exposure. Over and over and over again. What's that? Rich People Magazine. Rob Report? Yeah. And that. Interesting. You call it the Rich People magazine. I said, you call it the Rich People magazine. What's that, the Rob Report? It is. I call it the Toy store. It's toy catalog for people that have enough money that they don't ask, how much is it? That's what I call it.

So I'm kind of like. It just never gets to a point to where you feel the things that you desire are necessary. Because I have to, in a sense, I have an attachment to the item in order to feel the need to keep it.

Of course.

Like your table. Like, if it were some, you know, material in it that reminded me of something. You know what I'm saying? Like, I like to feel tied to the things that I have. Okay, so, like, me just having a whole bunch of stuff that isn't really exciting.

Okay.

Like experiences.

Yes.

And then things that have, like, sentimental value.

Okay. Other than that.

So I don't know, like, exposure to, I guess, more experiences. Will work for me.

I don't know. But here's what I also know that a lot of our stories. Because that's your story, that doesn't mean it's a good story or bad story. That's just my story. Your story is I don't really want a lot of stuff unless it has some meaning to me. Okay. How much money is too much money to spend on a bed? What's that? You can never spend too much money on a bed. And it is subjective. I value my sleep.

There's some people too much who spend like.

Like.

Are you talking about mattress? Are you talking about.

Well, as part of a bed, people.

Spend like $100,000 on that.

Yep.

My boyfriend, interior designer for celebrities, and they spend 30 to $50,000 on mattresses all the time.

And why do they do that?

Because they want to be. Well, some want to have the best of the best or two. They actually feel that the higher quality gives them better sleep and sleep's important to them. And that's also a bunch of different stuff that could go into it.

You're going to spend a third of your life in a bed. And the way you spend that time, add us to your recovery. Good sleep, good recovery. And we're learning this more and more all the time. Usain Bolt. Who is Usain Bolt? Yeah, he was. Is he still the world record holder of the 100 meter dash? So we'll just say he's the fastest man ever recorded to put on shoes. How's that? Here's what he says about recovery. He says 80% of my training is recovery. Hmm. So what they're discovering about high performers, high achievers, not just in performing athletics, but in anything, is their ability to recover. Their ability to recover. A good bed helps that process. They also talk about the quality of your sheets, the weight of your comforter or whatever. And not everybody's exactly the same. It's preference for some. And there's just some things like optimal temperatures for sleeping, for getting good, deep. The right kind of sleep is the cooler it is. You actually. Your body recovers better. My wife likes to sleep in a hot room. I hate it. Like, she's in Korea right now. I'm like in heaven, man, because I make it so cold. I turn on the fan and she doesn't like the fan. And it's like. So we like. She sleeps. I mean, obviously we sleep together, but like she sleeps with a comforter and I double it over her. And I don't like. But I also like the weight of A comforter. I love the weight of a comforter, but to do that I got to have air, movement and I need to be cool. So that's called a relationship, right? You're making adjustments and adapting and compromising and stuff like that. So when we bought the mattress we have right now, I don't know how much we spent for was over 10,000, but it was like the best of the best bet. I don't like memory foam. I think memory foam is very just I'm uncomfortable with it. I don't like the way I feel when I sleep on it. And anyway. But we bought it because it was the best of the best. We're like, okay, I like it. We spent hours in bed stores just like because somebody told us you spend a third of your life in bed eight hours a day, doesn't make sense to invest in something good like, okay. And I was. My mind was so resistant to paying that kind of money for a mattress until they changed my story. And I'm like, maybe I don't know everything right? And then I start laying on these beds. Can you feel the difference? I'm like, yeah, I can feel the difference. Now how much of that is marketing? Marketing and gimmicks and how much is real? I think pretty much of that. Like there's some legit to it. Is all of it legit? I don't know, I don't care. But I'm like, I'm going to get the best. I want the best of the best. Now I did not get the best of the best that you could buy anywhere in the world, but I got the best of the best of whatever Serta makes or whatever it is. But be very careful about saying you don't want something or like something when you can't afford it. So I learned this from a guy, his name was. What was his name? Bradley. Bradley something. Anyway, he was a triple diamond in Amway. And this is my experience. So I got to go to his house in Whitefish, Montana. And this house was like insane, right? 8,000 square feet, elevators. They had like. And this is back. I mean we're talking back in 2005 or something like that. This guy has a refrigerator in every room. And they're the built in wall refrigerators that you pull out the drawer and they're just like. Has water popping up, has a monoc in every room. He said, my dream is to have a house so big I need a golf cart just to get from one end of the house to the other. Well, it was almost that big. And they used golf carts to get around from their house to the barn to the animal barn. They had one barn that was a toy barn. And the toy barn had all the ATVs in it and the dune buggies and the motorcycles, the bicycles. And then one half of it was a half of a basketball gymnasium indoor because it's in Whitefish, Montana. It gets cold and all of it's like totally fully insulated all around year round. And he had a collection of very expensive cars and one of them was a Porsche. It was probably a Porsche 911. I'm pretty sure it was Porsche 911. And I know it was a Porsche 911 because we were looking and we were touring the place. So we're all doing this tour and there's about 30 or 40 of us there. And so we get in, he's doing training that evening and he said, so I heard, I heard one of you guys thinks a Porsche 911's ugly car. And he's like, who said that? He said, so finally one of the guys was like, so why do you think Porsche 911 is ugly? I just think they're ugly thing. It looks like a bullfrog the way the headlights were. He's like, I think it looks like a bullfrog. He goes like. And I, and I'm so just context. I agree with him. I think I used to think Porsche, that Porsche 911s are ugly car. And he's like, let me ask you a question. Do you know how much Porsche 911 cost and it was a six figure car back then. And he was like, no, he said 100. And I don't know how much he spent on it, but it was one of the really expensive ones. So it may have been a couple hundred thousand. I don't remember what it was. He said, could you afford that right now? The guy says, right now? Yeah, that's what I said, right now. Could you afford it right now? No. Then why don't you shut up now? He wasn't and he wasn't. He was doing it kind of funny. Because he's funny. I'm not funny, I'm just intense. It was kind of funny when he did it. And he said, I used to think a Porsche 911 was the ugliest car on the planet. He said, but here's the difference. It's amazing how pretty something becomes when you can actually afford to buy it. He said, I want you to afford to buy a Porsche 911 if you want to look at a Porsche 911 and go like Nah, it's an ugly piece of shit. I said alright. But he said what happens is subconsciously we try to justify not having something nice because we can't afford it. So we create a story to justify why we don't have it is that we don't want it. The reason I don't have a Porsche 911 is I think it's her two. I never want to buy a Porsche. I never want one of those big 7,000 square foot houses. Why does anybody need a 7,000 square foot house before? Have you ever lived in a 7,000 square foot house? No. When they shut the fuck up you don't know what you're talking about. Because it's amazing how nice living in a 7,500 square foot house is when you don't have to worry about the price. Indoor heated pool, indoor bowling alley, whatever. Can I give you guys some principles of making money? Dream bigger.
