The Longer Crowbar

Holy Bible NIV - Genesis Chapters 1 to 3 The Holy Bible (New International Version) Read by Myron Golden. 0:06 Genesis Chapter 1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. And God said, "Let there be light." And there was light. God called the light day, and the darkness he called night. And there was evening, and there was morning the first day. And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. God called the expanse sky. And there was evening and there was morning. The second day. And God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place and let dry ground appear." And it was so Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation, seed bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And God saw that it was good. And there was evening and there was morning, the third day. And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years. And let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day. And God said, "Let the water team with living creatures and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky." So God created the great creatures of the sea. And every living and moving thing. And God saw that it was good. God blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth." And there was evening, and there was morning, the fifth day. And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds, livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. And God saw that it was good. Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." In the image of God, he created him. Male and female, he created them. God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number. Fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." 05:08 Genesis Chapter 2 By the seventh day, God had finished the work he had been doing. So, on the seventh day, he rested from all his work. And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy. The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. And the Lord God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden, but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it, you will surely die." The Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him. And while he was sleeping, he took one of the man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man and he brought her to the man. 08:47 Genesis Chapter 3 The serpent said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden?'" The woman said, "God did say, 'You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.'" "You will not surely die," the serpent said, "For God knows that when you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked. But the Lord God called to the man, "Where are you?" He answered, "I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked. So I hid." And He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?" The man said, "The woman you put here with me, she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it." Then the Lord God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." To the woman he said, "I will greatly increase your pains and childbearing. With pain, you will give birth to children." To Adam he said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, 'You must not eat of it.' Cursed is the ground because of you. Through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life." The Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.

Your Diet Affects More Than You Think Because I attribute the success that I had coming off all of those addictions and I'm seven years sober August 26th, 2023, whenever this comes out. Gambling's eight years in December, like without any 12 step or recovery program. And I truly give credit to the diet being the catalyst for helping me heal from this stuff. In the coaching that I have done in the past, I'm not a health coach, but inevitably this comes up and people say, "what are you eating?" And I believe it plays a far more significant role from a spiritual, from an emotional, physical, like just everything than people will ever even comprehend. And so my recommendation for anyone is if your health is suffering and you want to go and achieve all these things get that sorted first.

What Value Can You Add to Someone’s Life? I operate truly and have done for the last three to four years... three, definitely three. With every single interaction that I go into with, "what value can I add this person's life?" What value can I add this person's life? Whether it be the checkout check, the IT support guy in Bangalore, India thousands of miles away, someone helping out at the supermarket or whatever. And I'm not talking about just rushing up to people and saying, "how can I help?" Like when you have that mindset, Andrew, after a bit of time and some positive feedback loop, you get really good at solving people's problems, and that is the fastest way to generate relationships. And then what follows relationships? Success and opportunities. People buy from people they know, like, and trust.

Find The Truth, Stay Open-Minded I just want to know the truth so I can make an informed decision. Alright? And people say all the time, there's so much information about nutrition, there's so much. If you're serious about leveling up and you want to be a high level entrepreneur and you want to kick around with the best of the best, which is, I'm very blessed to say that's happening more and more in my life now. And that levels me up. You have to be open-minded to the fact that just because a whole general population of people believe it to be true, doesn't make it right. And having that growth mindset has just been so eye-opening for me as well. And then pivoting when I am wrong or there is something else that I've learned that, "ah, okay." I'll freely admit that as well. Not being afraid to say I made a mistake. Visit us at: https://thelongercrowbar.com Visit Laban and Anna's site at: https://PurposePartnersForLife.com

Become a Lifelong Learner When I created the podcast three and a half years ago, I would bring on people that I wanted to ask questions about how I could fix things in my life. And I got really good at listening. Steve Hardison, who's known as the ultimate coach says the power is in the listener. I would ask open questions and allow people to talk, communicate. And as a result, my knowledge combined with all the other stuff that I was doing got me to a point of an intuitive knowing that once you immerse yourself in something. You get a real good intuitive feel that you're on the right path, but you still remain open to the fact that you don't know it all. You have to be a lifelong learner. And that has helped me make far better decisions, infinitely better decisions. Because you combine it with intuitive response, knowledge, wisdom, experience. And you don't get it right all the time, but it's pretty damn good. Visit us at: https://thelongercrowbar.com Visit Laban and Anna's site at: https://PurposePartnersForLife.com

How Anna & Laban Ditchburn Met So, once my confidence went through the roof, I was able to present myself differently. I was able to feel myself differently. I show up into this world differently. And yet 10 days later, the man of my dreams, a bold New Zealander who doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, doesn't do drugs, who is very loyal, very honest, stopped me in the middle of the day on the street of Melbourne, Australia. He was walking right towards me, and he came closer, and he looked right at my eyes and he said, "Excuse me, but you are stunning. And I wonder if you would like to have a drink with me one day."

Purpose Partners for Life Cherish Yourself I didn't want people saying that I can't keep my marriage together. And so, every time I would just go down and down and down. It's very important for women to know there are men who will love you, who will support you, who will carry you like you are the most precious thing in this world. But in terms of meeting this man, you need to become a woman who loves herself, who cherishes herself, who supports herself, who literally cherishes herself as the most precious thing, because you cannot attract this in your life until it's within you.

Purpose Partners for Life: Absence of Fulfillment Six years ago, I was a successful woman on the outside. I was married. I had a great job. We purchased the house. I was driving a luxury car, but you know, outside if you meet me, like everything is perfect. But inside, I was getting destroyed by these feelings of loneliness, of fear, of that something is missing, that it feels like something just holding me back because I knew I had a much greater potential. And when I started to look what is inside, what is happening inside me, I've realized I'm not fulfilled. I'm not free of some of the feelings that I was experiencing from my childhood, from my past.

Purpose Partners for Life: Abusive Relationships It came to the point that I've realized actually that I was in abusive relationships. I was in the relationships where I could not speak up freely. I could not share my ideas or I could not share my feelings without knowing that I would be judged. I went into a very depressive state actually. I didn't really have many friends at those times because my ex-husband wanted me to be sitting at home, being wife who is cooking, cleaning, and looking after the house. What's going to happen if I leave this relationship, what people will think about me. You can visit Anna’s website at https://annaditchburn.com. Get maximum leverage in health, wealth, and happiness!

Dr. B on The Consequence of Lack of Communication Skills So, when the same problem keeps coming up, it's like, that's our sign.

The Pygmalion Effect - Why What You Think the Outcome Will Be Matters and How Quantum Physics May Explain How It Works By Andrew Anderson 00:12 Positive Thinking Affects the Outcome So, you think you are going to do well with your next Marketing Campaign or dealing with a loved one or colleague? Wondering if you are going to lose weight on the new diet perhaps? Or maybe even thinking if you can do well trying Intermittent Fasting and Keto? This is good because of the Pygmalion Effect. We now know that it impacts the outcome of your campaign, the outcome of the interaction you will have with that person, the outcome of your health goals, and the outcome of the date, or interaction with a loved one… Believe it or not. And now, Quantum Physics may be the key as to why if we think we are going to accomplish something, we succeed. Or if we do not think we will, then we don’t. How we think may matter far, far, far more than we ever thought! There is one other connection as well. Have you ever heard the phrase "Birds Of A Feather, Flock Together”? Under this new theory in Quantum Physics, this is all tied together. There have been some recent experiments in Quantum Physics that prove this theory to a scary degree. The experiments prove that intention does indeed have a measurable effect on the outcome of Quantum reactions. Every once in a while, a light bulb goes on for me when thoughts come together that have been brewing for some time. I happened to be going through some of the piles of books that I have and came across “The Power of Positive Thinking In Business” by Scott W Ventrella. I had read and own a first-run copy of Norman Vincent Peal’s classic, “The Power of Positive Thinking”. Good book indeed and it runs along with “As A Man Thinketh” by James Allen. I had casually read through “The Power of Positive Thinking” before and it had not tripped my trigger, although I had lent it out to several people and one person in particular gave it credit for changing the course of her career and leading her to go back to school for her Master's Degree and changed her career and life.   Then I came across this in my search for the impact of positive thinking:   This is called the Pygmalion Effect. You see, in Greek mythology, there was a sculptor who sculpted a beautiful woman. He poured his heart, soul, and all of his skill into the sculpture.  He named her Galatea. It was so perfect that he fell in love with it and he wished it were a real woman. The goddess Venus saw this and actually made Galatea into a real live woman. Thus, the origin of the term The Pygmalion effect, where you get what you wish or expect. 02:41 Dr Rosenthal Experiment Spring forward several thousand years and we end up with one Dr Rosenthal of Harvard. He did a famous experiment where he went to a school and pulled the names of three teachers out of a hat at random. He also pulled the names of some students at random. He then told the teachers that they were the three best teachers in the school and that they were going to be getting the best students to see how well they could do with them.  At the end of the year, on average, the students’ performance was 20% to 30% higher than the rest of the school. This experiment was conducted over 300 times with similar results. What was funny, or perhaps not, is that rather than this being embraced and implemented on a wide scale in schools across the country, this caused a flurry of criticism within the teaching community. as they claimed the results to be irrelevant. At first, this may seem like a contradiction. As Ayn Rand famously said, “Contradictions do not exist. Whenever you think that you are facing a contradiction, check your premises. You will find one of them is wrong.” “The best way to predict the future is to create it.” - Peter F Drucker All you have to do is look and you will see this with a great many of the successful entrepreneurs and companies out there. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Warren Buffet, Richard Branson, Myron Golden, and Ashley Qualls all have one thing in common. They expect success from themselves and those around them. “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t - you're right.” - Henry Ford 09:38 Quantum Physics: Two Theories Explain the Pygmalion Effect 12:56 The Penrose–Hameroff theory of “orchestrated objective reduction (Orch OR)” 19:02 OOR and Shared Consciousness 19:33 The 100th Monkey Effect Explained 21:03 Interconnectedness and Collective Progress 21:29 The Implications for Humankind 23:36 Scientists show future events decide what happens in the past For the full transcript, go to https://thelongercrowbar.com OOR https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchestrated_objective_reduction Read more about the future changing the past: https://www.digitaljournal.com/tech-science/experiment-shows-future-events-decide-what-happens-in-the-past/article/434829?fbclid=IwAR0KvvF_zPULCEsLgvGA8V203cXhz1uaA1SHZq4YIEePt0HcsxukR2o8c80#ixzz85rtFEHuR

4 Mistakes That Decrease Success By 800 Percent! Find out why not doing these 4 simple things can decrease your chance of success by a whopping 800%! "The Alchemy of Success: Writing Down Goals and Sharing Them" Welcome, fellow travelers, to the transformative journey of goal achievement. The secret to a successful journey isn't a magic wand or a mystical prophecy. It's a much more practical, yet powerful method: writing down your goals and publicly declaring them. You may be wondering, "Can such simple acts truly make a significant difference?" Astonishingly, the answer is a resounding yes! These practices can increase your chances of success by a whopping 800%! It's like turning lead into gold in the realm of personal and professional growth. This isn't just a motivational mantra. There's solid science to back it up. A study conducted by psychologists at Dominican University in California discovered the incredible power of written goals. Participants were asked to either write down their goals or just keep them in mind. The result? Those who wrote down their goals were far more likely to achieve them. Think about this in your professional life. Imagine setting a goal to expand your business into a new market. Writing it down provides a concrete target to aim for, like a roadmap guiding you to your destination. Sharing this goal with your team ensures everyone is aligned, motivated, and working towards the same objective. The same principle applies to your personal life. If you're seeking a deeper connection with your partner, writing down steps to improve communication or plan regular date nights can be surprisingly effective. Sharing these goals with your partner allows both of you to work together, fostering greater intimacy and understanding. Why does this strategy work so well? Writing down goals solidifies them, transforming vague aspirations into tangible targets. It's a roadmap for success, providing clear directions so you don't lose your way. Sharing your goals publicly, be it with your team at work or your partner at home, creates a support system. They can hold you accountable, offer encouragement, and celebrate your achievements with you. But remember, this approach requires real commitment. Your goals shouldn't be transient thoughts, hastily written and soon forgotten. They should be like a mission statement, guiding your decisions and actions. So, equip yourself with pen and paper, and start writing down your goals. Share them with those who can help you succeed. You'll be astounded by how much closer your personal and professional aspirations come to fruition. In conclusion, writing down your goals and sharing them isn't just a self-help trick. It's a powerful strategy for personal and professional transformation. Whether you're seeking success in business or in love, this simple, effective method can guide you there. So don't wait. Begin your journey towards success today. Here is the wrap up. Whatever you want in life, write it down in great detail. Be it a new love interest or a new business goals. The more details the better. For instance describe the new significant other to a T. I mean everything about them. The same goes for you business goal, or fitness goal. The more details of what it is, and... what you have to do to obtain it the better! Then share the main goal publicly. You do not have to share the exact details, but the better you describe them to yourself and imaging yourself already having that goal, you will be amazed at how well this works! Now get your pad and pen and start writing and sharing! Cheers, Carl The Crow at The Longer Crowbar!

Google Versus Bing | Andrew Anderson | 0:00 Google and Bing Market Trends Hey, there. Andrew Anderson with The Longer Crowbar here. And today we're going to talk about looking at trends so that you can take advantage of them. We've been switching over to Bing as fast as we can, and using most of their services here. And I just want to show you a couple of things. So, what you'll notice here is whenever I see a strong buy on something by the "experts" because one of my better quotes is most experts aren't, and in this case, always there. So, what I'm looking at is these guys are hawking it up, but there were 2.6 million shares by insiders, okay. And then let's go to, let's go look at Microsoft. And there were only 55,000 shares in the last three months by insiders. So, do you think they know something? And the analysts, this isn't pegged yet, so there are some smart guys out there, but they're not all jumping out on the bandwagon here. 1:01 Open AI vs Amazon And we've been working with Open AI since 2020, so three years now going on. And the stuff that they have coming out will blow away Amazon, and Amazon is literally quaking their boots. They had a big meeting a couple of months ago. They're six months behind Microsoft. Can they catch up? I don't know, man. I'm not really sure. 1:22 Truth About AI Regulation There's some stuff now with the AI models that a guy in a garage or in his office or in his bedroom could come up with something that could beat the big boys, which is why they're pushing to regulate it because they're fear mongering that it's going to take over the world and stuff. And that may or may not happen. But the only reason they're doing that is because they don't want the little guys to be able to play against them, you know, which is typically what they do. They go in, they buy off the politicians one way or another and say everything's bad, and you've got to regulate this, and they cut out the little guy. But in this stuff, I think that the cat is definitely out of the bag. And you've got Barclays selling off Microsoft. They're in trouble from what I've seen. But 55,000 shares versus, let's go back and look at Google, 2.6 million. This is the best indicator that I can usually find for what's going on. If the insiders are bailing, they know something that the public doesn't. So, just the thought they might know. This is not financial advice. I'm not giving you any advice. Investigate at your own risk. Talk to a professional, if you could forget, find one. So, that is about it. Okay. Anyway, so the other thing is with Microsoft right now, if you're advertising, if you advertise on Bing, it costs you 75% less than it does on Google to get clicks and buyers. And the buyers we've been getting on Bing spend about 35% more. So, that is kind of crazy. Oh, 75% less, they spend 35% more. What's not the like, right? Google. We'll see what's going on with them, but man, oh man, I don't, I think this thing could go. If this is an M for murder, like this one over here or this one over here, you could easily drop another 10, 15 points. And if I think what's going to happen this summer happens, it could drop back down below a hundred easily. It may not do it all in one swoop, but it can get close to it. 3:16 The Longer Crowbar So, that's it. Those are my thoughts, not financial advice. Talk to you later. And follow us. If you're watching this on YouTube, like subscribe, do all the YouTubey things and we'll try and give you more information. We're going to get this on a regular basis and we've got a lot of information to share with you on how to have a better life. That's what this is all about. Talk to you later 'cause everybody needs a longer crowbar, right? Leverage is king. To get maximum leverage in health, wealth, and happiness, visit us at: https://thelongercrowbar.com Google Vs Bing

Search Box Optimization and Why It is So Powerful 0:00 Big Impact on Business Hello there. Andrew Anderson here with iQ Marketers, and today we're going to talk about how to crush your sales with AutoComplete and Search Box Optimization SEO. And if you've never heard of this before, I think you're going to be amazed and I don't say that lightly. I know we've been dealing with it for months now, and I'm still blown away at the results that it can get. And this is something that you should take note of. I know everybody's saying, oh, this is the greatest thing since sliced white bread and you have to do this and AI is it and everything else, but this really probably has the biggest impact on businesses getting in new businesses and being found of anything that I've run across in probably 15 years or so. 0:47 AutoComplete SEO So, let's get into this. What is AutoComplete SEO? Have you ever typed in a search and a list of 10 or so suggestions come up that is AutoComplete. Google, Bing and the other search engines all have them. And why is this important? Because right now, about 71% and rising of all web users click on one of these options. It's kind of crazy. Let me show you exactly what we're talking about here. So, this is the Bing search engine here, and I'm going to type in Fresno. I've already done this once here, but I want you to do this too. You can go to Bing and then type in "Fresno Plumbers." It won't even let me get to anything else. All right, so out of this, it's already filling in what I wanted to put in there. And let's go check out what happens when we go to Lee's. It's all about Lee's. There isn't any other competition here. What do you think? How much business do you think that he's going to get out of this? The gentleman is great by the way. And he also has several other cities that I'm not going to go into, but this alone, he can end up sucking up 40% of all of the plumber leads out of here. And please note, when we went back here, let's do this again. So, I'm going to try and type it in. It's not going to let me, but let's go to "Fresno Plumbers," right? Okay. So, it is already here. And what happened was it took out all the ads, it took out all of the map listings that are out there. You don't even see that. So, probably a million dollars in SEO a month to try and buy for that Fresno. And we could go to Sacramento too and see the same thing. Plus, all of the ad spends that were out there, they're going directly to Lee's. 71% click on here. What could you do without that business? And we do SEO. And it's just kind of crazy. So, let me stop this here. You kind of get the deal. So, let me try, I think let's try Sacramento. See, I can't even get it in there, but you do this yourself. So, try and type in "Sacramento Plumbers." Go to Microsoft Bing. And this does work on Google too. I'm not going to show it here 'cause I want to keep this short, but for different keywords. So, let's go here again. Ta-dah! Now, this is a different office. So, could you imagine yourself making an extra $500,000 or a million dollars a month by having that? And what people don't realize, and most of the agencies out there are totally clueless about this, is this is a game changer. If you don't have your client in this stuff, they're going to be toast. And there's a lot of businesses that are out of business because of this. They just don't know yet. They'll feel it in six months, but they're going to be a big vacuum as far as how much, how many leads they get. And the other thing is too, you know, with all the changes with Google and Bing, with how picky they are being with your landing page speed and everything else, they're really going to be hurting because most of these agencies don't even know about that. That's old enough for conversations a little bit. Let me finish up the presentation here real quick. So, as you can see why 71% of all the users, especially on mobile, will click on that first. They don't even go to the rest of it. They don't have to mess with the maps or anything else. And it's just kind of amazing. So, a company, yours perhaps, that shows up in the list can get 40% to 200% more traffic than the number one listing on the first page. And I just explained why. It bypasses the first page. They never get to all of the other listings, organic ads and otherwise. It's kind of crazy. 3:50 The Ultimate SEO 5:49 How to Search Box Optimize Search Box Optimization and Why It Is So Powerful For more information, visit https://iqmarketers.com

Money Follows Mastery | Myron Golden | 0:00 What is Mastery? When I teach entrepreneurs about business, one of the things I teach is the purpose of learning: mastery. I believe one of the reasons people find themselves frustrated, disillusioned, overwhelmed is because they thought that because they passed tests and got good grades, that automatically means they're prepared for life. Mastery is the ability to execute effortlessly without the use of conscious resources. And we've all seen mastery exhibited by people who've mastered their craft. They've mastered their niche. And it's really fascinating because when somebody is a master, they can take something very, very complicated and make it look effortlessly easy. I'm a black belt in martial arts. I've broken like five concrete slabs on fire with my bare hands. And I'm a golfer. Golf is way more harder than breaking five concrete slabs with your bare hands. But when you watch professional golfers, it doesn't look that hard. They make it look so easy that you got people out there chopping up the golf course in all kinds of crazy ways. 2:10 Money Follows Mastery We should all have mastery as an objective for our learning, for our growing. We should be seeking mastery. Not just, "oh, I learned it." The purpose of learning is mastery. If I have not mastered it, it means I haven't learned it until I can execute it effortlessly without the use of conscious resources. There are levels to mastery. There's the Tiger Woods level in golf, and then there are the other levels, right? So there are levels to mastery. The more you master your craft and the more you master creating a value that serves a broad array of people, the more money you're gonna make. That's just real life. We have to master so many different things to have run a successful business that it feels like it's impossible. And so there are a couple things that we can do though in the arena of mastery that will help us build a successful business so that money can follow our mastery. There are several things we can do and that we can take control over how much wealth we are able to create in the businesses that we build. 04:02 Decide We have to decide that we are going to seek mastery. The prefix "de" means "of" or "from." The suffix "cide" means "the cut." So when I decide something, I'm not choosing. Decide means cut yourself off from any other possibility. So let's say in order for me to build a successful business, I have to master one, lead generation. Two, lead conversion. Three, customer ascension, and customer retention. So let's say those are the four components of business that I need to master in order for me to build a successful business that makes a significant amount of money for it to support me and my family, as well as the families of the people who work on my team. 5:18 Master One Component at a Time Let's say now these are the components, but each one of these components have sub-levels. If I'm gonna generate leads, that means I need to have an opt-in funnel, a lead magnet, an autoresponder and I need to know how all those things work. Mastering this one thing is more than just mastering the words to be able to say, "lead generation," right? I need to understand how I need to get better at my communication, and I need to get better at communicating value, positioning, preframing, etc. Then when I come down here, I need to get better at creating perceived value and creating intrinsic value. I need to get better at taking a product and turning it into an experience, and then I need to get better at branding, right? Now I've got all these things. I've got four things times... now I'm up to seven. Like I can't even remember all those things. So that's why I master one component at a time in any new discipline. It doesn't matter if you're gonna learn how to play golf, it doesn't matter if you're gonna do martial arts. 07:27 Biblical Principles on Riches & Righteousness 19:06 On Wisdom, Understanding, and Ignorance 24:33 Are You Someone’s Asset? 29:51 Where Attention Goes, Intention Follows 36:47 Master Your Mindset 39:47 Master Your Skillset 41:01 Master Your Toolset 45:21 All Work Works Money Follows Mastery | Myron Golden |

How To Sell Your Home or Real Estate Fast in A Slow Market 0:00 Introduction Hello, Andrew Anderson here and I'm with IamAnInvestor.com and in this short little video, in the next two or three minutes, I'm going to show you how to get every agent in town to show your property first and not pay a full commission. And more than likely, sell your home or property before anyone else does if you're going to use a real estate agent to list your home. And in some of our other videos, I will show you how to do this without using an agent. But for this one, typically let's look at how a real estate agent transaction goes down. 0:31 How Real Estate Commission Works Throughout the country and depending on where you are, six percent's a fairly typical agent fee. And of that fee 3% goes to the listing agent or the person that came to you and got you to sign up for three months, six months, or hopefully a year for them. Not so good for you, but for listing your property. And what they will do, not all cases, there are some good brokers out there, but in far too many instances, they will take your information, get you to sign the contract, put a rather bad description of your property and some pictures on the MLS and be done with it. Oh yeah. They'll put out a sign too. Woohoo. And what they'll do is they'll wait for another selling agent from probably more than likely one of the other companies in town to sell your property. And of this, it's been our experience that over 90% of the property sold are not sold by the listing agent. They're sold by the selling agent. So, let's look at how this transaction goes down. On a $200,000 house or property, there's $12,000 commissions that are paid out. The listing agent, even though they may not be doing anything else other than plunking a sign, putting in on an MLS and getting you to sign a contract, will get $6,000. Isn't that dandy? The agent that's actually out there bumping her hump and brought the buyer into you will only get $6,000 which they have to split with the broker. And so what you have is you have a house for sale for a while along with all the other 10 million other people that have their houses listing. 1:52 How to Sell Your Property Fast in A Slow Market What I'm going to show you is how to avoid that situation and take advantage of the system. What we're going to do is, and perhaps you've heard of this before, is a flat fee listing service. And what they are is they're a broker who agrees to list your property and only take $190 to $399 dollars. That's it. There's no 3% split with them. What we're going to do in this scenario is we want you to do this, we want you to find a listing agent, a flat fee listing agent, to list your property for $199 to $399. They're out there. Then what we're going to do is we are going to offer to pay a 4% commission to the selling agent. Now, you're still saving 2%, or on our example of the $200,000 house, you're still going to keep $4,000 in your pocket minus whatever your listing fee is, but yet you're paying out $8,000, but what you do is you specify that this goes to the selling agent and broker. And so what happens, just in this simple scenario, is you're going to increase the money they're going to make on selling your house by 33%. Now, all things being equal, if you have a house across the street and they have your house, same price and everything else, which house do you think that they're going to show their buyers first, knowing that they can make 33% more? It's a no-brainer. It's human nature. They have to make a living, they have to put food on their table, they have to take care of their kids as well. By taking advantage of the system, you're going to get far more brokers to show your house than anyone else's. 3:17 How to Sell Your Property Even Faster And if you bump the amount up to 5%, that means they would get $10,000, you're going to have even more of those people. And if you put a full 6% commission, excuse me, you're actually going to double what they're going to make. You literally will have them showing your house first, all things being equal. And even if some things aren't equal, they're still going to drive their buyers by your house first. And you will get showings on it and you will get it sold quicker than if you were to list with a regular agent under the normal circumstances. I've not seen this anywhere else. We've been doing it fairly successfully for quite some time now. Hopefully you'll be able to use this, and sell your property a lot quicker. Please look for more videos like this that will show some of the techniques that we've been using that you won't find anywhere else about real estate and investing.

Selling Simplified - Sell This Way & Have People Thanking You | Myron Golden | 0:00 Mistakes Salespeople Make Hello there. Are you making these mistakes that could be costing you sales and revenue? And I mean a lot of sales and a lot of revenue. I've discovered, after coaching thousands of entrepreneurs in the arena of sales and marketing and business development and how to scale your business from zero to hero, I've discovered there are five huge ginormous mistakes that most salespeople make that keep them from ever making a lot of sales. And I'm gonna help you avoid making those mistakes. 0:28 Biggest Mistake Salespeople Make There are five mistakes. On this video I'm gonna talk to you about one of them, and this is probably the biggest one that really holds people back the most, and that is most people who are in sales think that selling is something you do to people and not something you do for them. So, they think that selling is something you do to people and not something you do for them. And I am here to let you know that is a mistake. When we are selling and we are selling something that does people good, the reality is we are not doing something to them. We're doing something for them. And what you deserve to do is you deserve to learn how to have that feeling that I am serving these people at the highest level. Because the reality is, if you don't, you're never gonna feel good about it. See, it's interesting that all of us at some point in our lives got converted from being natural born salespeople to being natural born I hate salespeople. Right? And what do I mean by that? So if you think about it, people say, "I'm not a natural born salesman." But the reality is everybody's a natural born salesman. Everybody's a natural born salesperson. When you're born, you can sell your mom on waking up in the middle of the night and picking you up and playing with you for three hours, right? The little kids, they come to their parents, "Can I have a cookie?" "Not right now, honey." They come back 30 seconds later. "Can I have a cookie now?" And why? Because they don't have this negative neuro association to the idea of persuading somebody that I want what I want. And so hating sales is something you have to learn. We're all natural born salespeople, and I believe the number one reason people think that selling is something you do to people instead of something you do for people is because most people only remember the bad sales experiences. The good sales experiences are so good. They didn't feel like sales experiences. They just feel like you bought the thing that you wanted to buy. But a bad sales experience feels so yucky and so gross and so disgusting. You're like, I don't ever want anybody to do that to me again, and I would certainly not wanna do that to somebody else. But the reason you felt that is because the person who put you through that horrible sales experience, they were terrible at selling. And so they made you feel like running away. They made you feel like telling them to go fly a kite or other things. I'm telling you, that is the problem. 2:51 Selling Is Something You Do FOR People 4:46 Persuasion Vs Convincing 5:30 How To Help A Customer Make A Decision 7:33 Sales Is A Moral Obligation Selling Simplified - Sell This Way & Have People Thanking You | Myron Golden | Find out more at: https://thelongercrowbar.com/myron-golden

Myron Golden Behind the Scenes 0:00 What’s The Purpose of Money? The primary purpose of money is to pay bills. If you think that the primary purpose of money is to pay bills, how can you be anything but poor? The only reason you think you need to go get money is to pay somebody else, and so you'll never get more money than the amount it takes for you to pay somebody else. So as long as you can make enough money to pay your bills, you're happy. So you go get a job. You think, "how much money does it take for me to live? If I can get a job making that much money, then I'm gonna be okay." This is why you're poor. It's not the amount of money, it's not the job, it's not the fact that they don't pay anymore. I like what Jim Rohn said: “I said to my mentor, Mr. Shoaff, this is all they pay." He said, "that's all they pay?" He said, "lemme ask you a question, Mr. Rohn." He said, "Do they pay other people at your company more than they pay you?" "Yes." He said, "Well then that's not all they pay. That's just all they pay you."" People don't lack access. They only lack awareness of access that they've already had. You already have enough access to be rich. You don't have enough awareness to be rich. Middle class people think the primary purpose of money is to maintain good credit. They make a little more money than it takes for them to survive. And then what they do is they buy things that cost more than they can afford to pay for more credit. 1:34 On Using Credit I love using credit and using good debt to create wealth. I don't use debit cards unless I go to the bank to prove that I'm me. Everything else I buy on a credit card because all the credit cards I have give me points. Points are money. They're paying me to buy stuff. It makes way more sense for me to pay with a credit card, get the point, and then just pay the credit card off at the end of the month. Maintain good credit. 2:33 What Keeps You Stuck? So middle class people have a lifestyle that makes them look like they're doing better than they are. But I am here to tell you that very few things keep more people stuck in their current financial situation than trying to look richer than they are. I would rather look broke and be rich than look rich and be broke. So what's the difference? What do rich people do? Well, we believe the primary purpose of money. Well, I wasn't "we" then, so "they" back then, they believed the primary purpose of money is to turn it into more money. So the private first thing I want to do, the most important thing I do is turn my money into more money, turn my money into more money. When I get $1 or $10 or $100 or $1,000 or $10,000, or $100,000, or $1,000,000 or $3,000,000 or $7,000,000 or whatever, my primary objective with every single one of those dollars is to turn it into more money before I spend any of the money I just got. Why do I say it's critically important to make money faster? 3:38 Making Money Fast is Critical Because if you don't, here's what's gonna happen: inflation and taxation are gonna erode the dollars you get faster than you can earn them. This is why it's important to make money fast. "Myron, what is inflation?" Inflation is if there are only $100 in the world, let's say, okay, so it's $100. There's $100 in the world, whole US economy, $100, doesn't matter what the number is, works the same. And there are a hundred people and all hundred people have a dollar. As soon as the government prints another hundred dollars, that hundred dollars is now only worth 50 cents and every year inflation, well, up until last year, the year before that, last two years, inflation's been greater than it's ever been in human history, like in American history. Before 2021 and 2022, inflation averaged about 2% per year. Every 10 years your money is worth 20% less than it was a decade ago. So people feel like they're making more money and they are making more money. They're making more, but the more they're making is worth less. So they're still making the same amount or worse. That's what inflation does to your dollars. And then what's taxation? Taxation is when lifetime politicians... politics. Say "politics." Oh, that's an interesting word. Poly means more than one tick. Blood-sucking parasites. Okay. Sorry. So, did I say that out loud? Okay, so what they do, they don't know how to create anything. So what they do is they take the people who are producers and they come take it from them, and then they give what they take to somebody they think deserves it more than the people who make it. Mm-hmm. So if you don't get rich, taxation and inflation are gonna make you so poor, this is not an exaggeration, literally, your children or grandchildren may end up living on the street as homeless people. Cuz you didn't get rich. Myron Golden Behind The Scenes Find out more at: https://thelongercrowbar.com/myron-golden
