Mark Evans DM talks about finding your unique ability and using it to pick the right mentors for different areas like marketing, finance, and organization. He warns that staying busy isn't the same as being productive, and says you need to take full responsibility for your life while building something people will actually pay for.
Hey guys, it's your boy, Mark Evans, dm. I got something to share with you. Come ride with me. Let's go. Hey guys, it's your boy, Mark Evans Diem here. Like I said, come and rolling with me in the Rolls Royce Phantom today. I got my man Dan behind the camera. Just wanted to share a couple things with you as I head to a meeting. Anyways, today's topic is Unique ability. That's right, unique ability. See, I get calls every single day, emails every single day. Mark, should I get a mentor? What should my mentor do? And this and that. The answer is first off, yes, get a mentor. But be very crystal clear, all mentors are not created equal. Number one and two, you're probably going to need more than one mentor. I don't know. Anybody that's ultra successful has the same mentor. There's nothing wrong with having the mentor and having them around for a long time. But as you progress, as you move forward, as you're building your life and your business, I need mentors for different things. Maybe a mentor in marketing, maybe a mentor in weight loss, maybe a mentoring in business development, business growth. Maybe a mentoring and financial stuff. So depending on what you're trying to accomplish, you need a mentor. But let's get back to unique ability. This is something I discovered that I have that other people don't have. And everyone has something different and it might be like mine, it might not be, either way is fine. But don't find a mentor until you know what you're seeking for. Because a mentor wants to help you grow. They don't want to call you just to talk to you, to have conversations with you. They want the call should be 5 to 10 minutes fast to the point everyone's busy. How do we get moving? How do we make this happen? How do we grow? Unique ability will help you find this mentor quicker. For example, I'm terrible at doing paperwork, so I need a paperwork or an organizational mentor, not for myself. And. Or I'll hire it out, right? So I hired out or I try to do it myself. I personally like to hire stuff out. Now in the beginning, maybe you don't have the funds to do that. So find people that can help you organize yourself, organize your life, organize your business and. Or maybe you don't need to be organized on certain things. So don't confuse this busyness work with productivity. Work back to unique ability. Sorry, get sidetracked here a little bit because I get excited to you guys. Unique ability. My unique ability is being able to connect with People listen and provide value. I genuinely care about the prospects, I genuinely care about the clients. And I'm ready to help them grow to the next level. As I'm sitting here driving down A1A here in Palm Beach, Florida, we got houses in the 30, 40, 50, 80, 100 million dollar price range. And it just gets me excited and juiced up to know that the only reason these guys and gals can afford these kind of houses is it's not because they're just rich and all that stuff. That's an outcome to their actions and they figured out what their unique ability is. I have a lot of friends that make a lot of money. The ones that make the most money have really dialed in what their unique ability is. So I want you today just to think about this for a moment. What is your unique ability? What can you provide to the marketplace that people are ready, willing and able to pay for? And go seek these folks, because I see a lot of people like, create content, content, content. Content is king. That is correct. Content is great. And that's what I'm doing right now, creating content. But at the same time, know your value, know your unique ability and go put it to work. Let's make some money. I have to pay bills just like everyone else. You have to pay bills just like everyone else. But how do you pay bills Easier? Make more money. Work smarter, not just harder. It's okay to work hard, but I want to work hard, but I want to work smart at the same time. Confuse activity with productivity. Again, unique ability. Focus on what you're great at, focus on what you love to do. And remember, the only person that can do this for you is you. That's it. Only you. Take 100% responsibility for your life, good and bad and everything in between, and you'll be so much more successful, so much more happy, and ultimately, at the end of the day, so much more successful. Hope that helps you out today. Talk to you later. Bye bye.
