How To Turn Average Results Into Exceptional Results

Putting in average effort and not getting the result you want is more tiring than putting in exceptional effort and actually getting the result, because you're not getting the energy of the result that feeds you to go and do the next exceptional effort. Hey everyone, welcome back to the show. It's time for another quickie because there's always time to fit in Inspiration. I'm so grateful for your you tuning in and listening to this podcast. And if you are also in your fire season, if you've been listening lately, you guys know that I feel like I experienced what was a very long winter. I think on the outside it looks to people like everything is great and I'm still doing all the things. But I knew that I was in a season of just massive growth, also hitting walls and struggle and feeling like, oh my gosh, when am I ever to get to that season where things feel a little bit easy or where things are blooming and they're thriving? And I will tell you that there is so much purpose to winter seasons. Sometimes they last three months, sometimes they last three years. And I want to be that voice that during that season there are such insane things happening. When I say insane, I mean good things. So if you are in that season right now, it feels bleak and like nothing is going on and things might be going wrong and relationships might be falling apart and your health and fitness is not where you want it. But I think that those winter seasons are the most clarifying seasons that you can be in. They're not clarifying while you're in them, but I almost view it as like killing off certain things. It's almost like in winter, things have to die for a while, things that weren't serving you anymore in order to regenerate this new so you're just in a season where you're essentially naturally killing things off, letting things fall to the wayside, seeing what's working for you and what isn't working for you. And if you are in that season but you feel you're coming out the other side, or you feel you want to plug in, Chris and I have created something just for you. And this podcast is also going to talk about where we are at within those seasons as well. But we created something for you that we want you to make sure that you're in a network that is always thinking about growth. So if you text the word dinner. Yes, dinner. I'm not just making you think about food. This is something that's really, really cool. Text the word dinner to 310-421-0416 some of you are probably listening to this in the morning already thinking about dinner. I'm sorry. And you're welcome. So 310-421-0416 text the word dinner. That is my husband's text list, you guys, because we are doing this together. We are putting on three incredible dinners. Think amazing, upscaled, get dressed up networking events for people to meet people in order to help them grow and scale their businesses. And not just that, it's not just dinners. It's also a full day of learning not only from us, but we're going to invite in some incredible experts. This is all about exponentially growing your network this year. Because nothing, I'm telling you, nothing that we have done has come on its own. It's come because we have been plugged into very expensive masterminds, Oregon out to dinner with some incredible people who were intro to us through people who we met at events or masterminds. And we wanted to make sure that there was a way for you to just go plug in a few times a year and get a massive network from it. So you guys, if you're ready to grow your network, we want you in there. It's not just for couples, it's for any entrepreneur, you guys. So we would love, love, love to have you. And did I mention that the third one is actually a gala? So, ladies, I just want to say if you want to get really dressed up and of course we're going to do all of the photos there to get really, really dressed up, cocktail and just have the best time ever meeting a ton of new people in our network because our network becomes your network, then this is where you want to be. So text the word dinner to 310-421-0416. All right, so today I have been feeling this call to tell you about not only where I'm at, but I hope that this is the awakening that you need. Because it was the awakening that I needed and deep down my soul actually knew this. But I was in complete denial, probably because I was in more of a winter season. But that's okay. Everything is for a reason. Everything is serving a purpose. Please trust that wherever you're at is actually getting you ready and serving you in the next season of your life. But if you are hearing the calls from your soul, it is time to listen. So my message for you today is that mediocre actions and activities and ways of being cannot get you exceptional results. You're probably looking at somebody wondering how they're getting those results or I'm working just as hard and not getting those. This is the reality that you are not working as hard as the people getting those results. It's not possible. It's just a universal law that they have either put the groundwork in or done something that you're not seeing that you need to dig deeper on to get those results. So where in your life do you know that you are wanting an exceptional result, like scaling your business or growing your business, or getting that bod that you want, or getting that strength that you want or whatever, getting that friendship that you want, but you are not putting in the same level of effort. And I just want to tell you that putting in average effort and not getting the result you want is more tiring than putting in exceptional effort and actually getting the result, because you're not getting the energy of the result that feeds you to go and do the next exceptional effort. So you don't have to pick everything all at once. That's not what this podcast is about, because that is impossible and not sustainable. But what I want you to do is say, if I'm wanting the result of growing and scaling my podcast, or growing and scaling my business, am I actually figuring out how to put the money in and the effort in to grow that said thing that we're talking about? And I think even for years, Chris and I have fallen in this trap of thinking that maybe we're just different and we're not getting the same results of these huge people that we're seeing because we think they're growing on social organically, or we think that they're growing their podcast organically, or we think that they're growing their lists organically. And while, yes, that is important, and that is a very important key thing to be able to do, there's a lot of money that goes into scaling a business. It's all still a business. A personal brand is still a business. A podcast is still a business at the end of the day. So there are things that you need to do to learn how to scale it, whether that's investing in people to help you grow, whether that's investing in someone who can help you get your podcast on YouTube, whether that's investing in someone who, who can help you grow your email list, whether that is investing in somebody to help you grow your social. There are the people and the things that these people who have what you want have invested in. Now, if you're sitting there going, I don't have the money to do that yet, a lot of These stories come from, whoa, I don't have the money. What can I do to get that money? Do I need to put this particular thing on a credit card at first? And no, I'm not telling you to go max yourself out. But I am saying this is where a lot of the stories come from. This is what a lot of Chris and I did. We didn't have the money. We had to figure out a way to get it or to start small in order to scale something. So if you're thinking that you're going to do this by yourself or you're thinking that you're going to do this organically, this is the wake up call that you need to know that it's an investment of either massive effort or an investment of money to have a team who's going to put that massive effort in. I don't want you to be spinning your wheels wondering how this is happening for other people. And I would say pick one area and start there and really, really dissect how these people are growing. What is it? Did they invest in a company that helps you grow? Did they invest in a person that helped them grow? Because these companies and people are out there and it's much better than spinning your wheels thinking that you suck because you can't grow organically or your business can't grow organically. I'm actually reading Alex Hormozi's book right now and it is so good and so eye opening of how this stuff really works. You guys, you have to go and get those people. You have to go and be able to know how to get those leads. And it all comes from scaling, comes from knowing how to advertise and get leads. So if that is not your zone of genius, then you need to figure out how to find those people and how to invest in those people.

So you guys, I'm sending you so much love today. I hope that you are starting to look at your life and your business or whatever you want to grow and say even if that's your even if that's your fitness, right? And you're like, okay, this is not happening alone. Maybe it's time to invest or trade something to get that trainer. Maybe it's time to really invest in the person who's going to make sure that you stay accountable. Or maybe it's time to really put a lot on the line and just make those friends who are going to hold you accountable. Right? So whatever you need, there's ways to do it in the beginning as well, without money. I mean, we talk about this all the time. That in the beginning, I traded services in order to have somebody help me scale my fitness membership. I trained somebody for free in order to be able to have them help me just grow. On the editing and everything side of formatting all of my workouts online and helping me get them out there, I train that person for free for a long time in order to be able to have somebody to help help me scale that business. So what are some different things that you could potentially do? Could you maybe watch their kids for a little while and trade for something? Just try to get really scrappy in order to think, how could you get this person's services? What can you do for them in order to have them help you? Is there someone who could give you a little bit of business advice, but you could really offer them something in return? So, you guys, I am just super grateful that you tune into this platform and I always hope that it is either a wake up call or a value add or something that fills your soul. And I know that you're listening to this because you know that you have more. I literally know that, that you chose to tune in on this particular day because what you're doing maybe isn't working in the way that you want. And I don't want you to go through life or go through more weeks or more years going, why isn't this working for me? What's wrong with me? That's not the question that's going to get you to the place where you're winning. It's why not me and what are they really doing and what's the strategy like? Let's really look at this. Let's really dissect this so that we can win too. Because if it's working for others, there are reasons that it could work for you. So I'm sending you so much love. And until next time, earn your happy. Bye, everyone. It.
