The Network filters members hard to keep the community honest and caring.
Chapters
The true law of attraction is friendship. Think about everything that you got in your life that you love, whether it's a business deal, a marriage, like whatever it came down to that you adore and love. It came through friendship. Raise your hand if you agree. Yeah. Do I pay Joe $25,000 a year? Yeah. In fact, no, I don't. I pay 30,000. Do you know why? Because I put $5,000 of my own money every year into marketing Genius Network, and he's never asked me to do that. I put together commercials. I spend money to promote this man's program. Why would I do that? Because I know how valuable it's been for me. Law of attraction comes from friendship. And so for me, yeah, we can call each other. Yeah, I could go around this network and I could make friends with people. I could be a little vulture. And you could do that if you'd like. And there's some of you that will. And you know who you are, and that's okay. That's okay. We love you, too. We talk about you when you're not around, don't we, Jo? We have some good talks about them. But, no, I do it because when I get to spend time with Brian Kurtz, Kevin Thompson, Michael Fishman, when I spend time with these 25k members, they become a part of my existence. I mean, really, Joe can't. Can't say it the way I can say it, because I'm here paying him. Right? And that's what you want. You want people in your life that will pay you to rave. And I am here to rave about Joe because when the hit the fan in my life a year and a half ago, a year ago, I had the worst accident in my life. I nearly died. Joe put his life on pause and was at the hospital just bringing out everything. Do we need to get him on an airplane to the best hospital? What do we need to do for Sean right now? In that level from Joe is what I have from other members in 25k. And so you're damn right I'm going to pay 25,000, plus the extra 5 that I put into marketing for Genius Network. You're damn right I'm going to pay for that. Because what I'm doing is. I'm saying, hey, Joe, the world is filled with D do. Can you please show me the good ones? And so what he's really doing, if Joe didn't teach anything, if he didn't give you, like, tools that you kind of fill out sometimes and sometimes you don't, I mean, if he didn't give you all the other stuff, the value would be in the douche filter. Because there are a lot of people on this planet that just take, take, take, take, take. They enjoy messing with the human race because they are hurt. They're badly hurt. And the way they're getting back and the way they're coping with life is they hurt others. And what I love about Genius Network is every meeting I go to, I know those people aren't going to be there because they will kindly ask them to leave if that person happens to make it through the filter process. So I know when somebody is in the Genius Network room, when I turn to my left, when I turn to my right, these are the people that come pre approved. And Sean's gonna sit down with Isabel or you and say, what's going on with your marriage? What's going on with your health? Why the hell are you still fat? Like, what's going on? Let's take care of your body. I'm in the gym. You can be in the gym. And that level of honesty that I can bring is because Joe did the work on the front end. Does that make sense? Yes or no? Yeah. So if you're on the bubble and you're tired and you're like, I don't know if I want to do this, then leave. Because, like, I don't want you in this group.
