Summary

Not a day passes by without someone asking, "How do I get another person to help me get what I want?" Persuading others is one of the keys to getting what you want in life - and here's a big secret; it's NOT about you! You'll get what you want faster by focusing on how you can help others solve their problem - and "Ladder of Desire." This is how it works: 1) Most folks lecture others. That's a low level of communication and rarely builds a real connection. 2) A more practical solution is showing others how and explaining how to solve their problem. 3) The most powerful is to offer to take care of their dilemma for them. That is the top rung of the 'Ladder of Desire.' Everybody wants their problems to disappear. Make that happen, and you'll be a Hero! When you follow this approach, you make friends, prove your value, and are more likely to have your favor returned. Do good first. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:00.0	How are you? Happy Friday. Happy, happy Friday. Well, so listen, have you ever wanted
0:19.8	somebody else to give you another chance? Like if they would only help me, I could do it.
0:24.1	I just need somebody's help and yet they won't. And you're tried and it just stopped. There's
0:29.2	a much more effective way for you to be able to get that to happen. Today we're going to talk
0:32.5	about that. By the time we're done with this show, you'll see a simpler way to pull it off.
0:37.7	It's gonna be awesome. It is a daily boost from MotivationAmov.com, the positive boost you need
0:42.6	every single day life begins. When you move, we stand up, we take a step, we repeat. We keep going
0:48.7	until we get what we want, why, what we stop, before we got there anyway, because then you'll
0:52.3	sit down and go, man, I didn't get what I wanted and you got to start again. So we just keep on
0:56.0	doing it. And that's what this show essentially is all about. My name is Scott Smith,
1:01.3	Preveyor of Scott Logic and the founder of MotivationAmov.com. Grateful to be here with you today.
1:06.3	Essentially what we're doing for those of you who have not been hanging around. Those of you
1:09.8	have been with me for 16 years now, because we are nearing our 5,000th episode. One thing you all
1:17.7	know and you should know if you don't know is Scott's just a hot mess. Got a hot mess ever since I was
1:22.0	a kid. Decided a long time ago, it was going to be a hot mess. I was going to learn things
1:25.5	the hard way, figure stuff out eventually. I got smart. Because you'll do this eventually,
1:29.4	you'll get smart as you get older. Fortunately, I got smart somewhere around 40 years old and said,
1:32.7	okay, I'm tired of being a hot mess. Let's go ahead and change this around and start to learn
1:35.1	the stuff and doing things, doing things that work. If you're in your 20s, you'll be a hot mess
1:40.6	all you want to. That's what your 20s are all about. If you're in your 40s, you'll be like, okay,
1:46.3	what have we been doing for the last 20 years? If you're in your 50s and 60s,
1:51.5	you're like me excited, right? What's that? Oh, I missed the 30s. Oh, yes,
