| 0:00.0 | Hey, business building warrior. Welcome to Silent Sales Machine Radio. This is your host, Jim, |
| 0:07.6 | and today's question is, are you confident enough to have your own business? It's a strange |
| 0:15.1 | question, perhaps, but I've found in a lot of our students, our coaching students, our proven Amazon core students, |
| 0:24.1 | one of the battles they run into is confidence. |
| 0:27.6 | And I think this stems, my theory is, and there's probably many places it can come from, |
| 0:32.8 | and a lot of things can negatively impact our mindset. |
| 0:36.0 | And I'll talk about a few of them, but I want to help |
| 0:38.0 | answer the question with a business model that actually really boosts your confidence, and it's |
| 0:43.4 | the model we talk about a lot around here, actually, the model we talk about almost all the time |
| 0:47.8 | around here. It's the Amazon Replans model that we teach in the proven Amazon course. But what are some of those things |

| 1:17.1 | it's hard. It's not easy taking something of low value and turning it into something of higher |
| 1:24.4 | value that people are willing to pay you for, gratefully so, at a profitable number |
| 1:31.6 | that you like and they like. It's not an easy prospect. Building a business is difficult. |
| 1:37.6 | So that lack of confidence can stem from the fact that we've just observed the way the world |
| 1:42.3 | works and we see a lot of people struggling to |
| 1:44.6 | build businesses. Okay, we've got that. Let's check that box. A lot of things can go wrong. |
| 1:51.3 | Another thing that can go wrong, we spend a significant amount of time on this one as well |
| 1:55.1 | is you just don't see the virtue in what you're doing. That leads to self-sabotaging. Let me give you an |
