Welcome back to the quote of the day show I'm your hope shine cracks in the shine cracks in calm we've got Eric Thomas kicking off the week for your motivation Monday and today he is talking about

0:45.0

what can happen in your life when you make a decision and a commitment to go all in not 60% not 70% not 80% not 90% but 100 or 110% all in and the thing that you want to create and when you do that really cool stuff happens here's Eric Thomas

1:10.0

All right so number two this is important guys because in order for you to go all in the first thing you have to do is to realize that it's not going to happen by luck right but if you go all in if you are intentional and deliberate about every single move look we're not playing checkers no more this is chess

1:27.0

this is growing for business and if you're going to make it in this business listen to me you have to be strategic so number two the difference between who you are and who you want to be is what you do I never forget last year San Diego I had the privilege of man I had the privilege of sitting down and doing breakfast with Bob Proctor

1:55.0

and I never forget we were sitting down and he asked me how much I charged and I told him how much I charged he was like no you should be charging wait at least double that so he gave me a figure right but it was so funny because as we were sitting down you know it was almost it was comical because he said to me he saw my book he was like Eric you still selling books and I'm like yeah I'm going to do it

2:23.0

Eric you still selling books and I'm like yeah I'm still selling books I'm like what does he mean by that you don't sound like I'm confused like he grabbed my book like you selling this I'm selling it like what are you doing books you sell them

2:38.0

and he started to say like ET like you got to understand something like people are not blowing up selling books like you have to do something else and I'm thinking like I don't know where you come from but where I come from Detroit I'm the only one on my block selling books

2:51.0

like real maybe your neighborhood they not selling books no more but in my neighborhood we still selling books right and so I was geeked up because I'm like look we made and a let year and a half we made a million dollar selling books and he was like ET I want you to give your book away and I want you to give it away and I want you to direct them to your ascension program and I'm like my what he was like a sentient program like what's that so he's like ET man you've been doing a state of mind

3:21.0

for 20 years you got a lot of content you have a lot to share with the world and why the thank God is Monday is cute there are people who want more than thank God is Monday so I was like all right cool and I left fired up but I was still the same person

3:39.5

because somewhere in my mind even though he told me no sell my book it didn't register like whoa what's going to happen if I don't sell my book

3:46.5

and I want you Australia and the guy said ET you still pan you still got them paying for your plane ticket yep they're paying for your room yep they give me an honorate yep he's like I don't do any of that but I sell my ascension program when I go and then I watch this guy sell his ascension program in Australia and he made 250 thousand dollars and two hours and when I came back I was like Bob Brock you were right I'm not selling my book no more

4:17.2

about to do an ascension program I never forget when I started my breathe university I will never forget when I first told it to my team they like Eric is too much for the diamond package nobody's going by that everybody's going by the silver and I'm going to be honest with you Bob Brock was right 90% of the sales are platinum and diamond listen to me very closely you are in this room for the next couple days you're going to be getting some great information but if you go back the same person that you were when you got here

4:46.3

you're going to be disappointed but if you take everything and you go now listen to me if you write down everything if you record everything if you buy all the information you take it back and you just don't have it in front of you but you internalize it you read it over and over and over again you get with your team and you go over and over and over again and in 90 days if you go

5:11.1

come on for 90 days if you go I said for 90 days if you go you're going to a whole other level

5:28.0

listen to me if you go all in for 180 days if you go all in for 360 days you going man okay I'm sorry I only got a little time watch this guy this is crazy

5:50.0

and now I'm only on the road four or five times a week and I'm making more than what I made last year and I'm finished with two thirds of my PhD and this year I'll get my PhD why

6:01.9

because Bob Proctor said E T in order for you to go all in the difference between who you are and I was very successful I thought at the time

6:13.1

the difference between who you are and who you want to be it's what you're doing and kids what you're doing is good but what you're doing
