I have a friend named Bobby Castro.    One of his favorite phrases is "Stack'em and Rack'em Savages."    And what that means is when you land one win, keep going for the next one.    Stack them bitches up.    For most people, they'll get a win and coast.    When I worked at the car dealership, no one would help the people walking in.    Instead, they'd be calling their leads or be conveniently at the copier.    They completely ignored the low-hanging fruit.    When I worked at the mortgage company, I worked the CRM, called, the leads, sent emails, and in a very short order of time, I was top producer.    And it's all because when I got one win, I'd stack another.  But you have to leverage the tools you have at your disposal every single day, win after win.    Stack'em and rack'em savages.      About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

Back when I was coming up, I was fortunate enough to have met the late Zig Ziglar.    I've also met his son who has come to my office a couple of times.     Zig wrote a book called, "See You At the Top."    He said something in that book that struck a cord with me..............   "If you help enough people get what they want, you'll get what you want."    This addage still holds true.     But not for most people.    Most people are more concerned with what they need.    What they want.    And as a result, they end up chasing a bigger house, better paying job, vacations, and status, only for it all to slip through their hands.    This is your chance to be the 1%.............   You may have to help 5,10, 15, or 20 poeple get everything they want before you get what you want.    Remember that.    About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

This one is going to blow your mind and I'm going to tune you in to a mass exodus that's been happening in the Digital Marketing space and business in general.    The days of "Greed is Good" are over.    They're coming to an abrupt end quickly.     The reason?    No one is buying bullshit.    Not your bullshit or anyone else's bullshit.     We live in a world where if you've not figured out how to provide value at an exponential scale, you are not going to be running your own business for long.    Recently, I've made a shift and my grand vision for what I'm doing has required me to give away the thing that was my main thing at 80% off and it's on track to be given away for free in the near future.    For now, I'm focused on helping as many people get what they need to help them succeed.    About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

 I had a guy reach out to me on Sunday morning in the DMs at 7:30 am.   He wanted to talk business.    That's cool.    I'm a busy guy and love business, but this guy was once in the Apex network I created.    He was in for a few years.     Over that time, he had access to me, just like most poeple that come into our network.    I've helped him with multiple things in life and business over the years and this particular morning when he reached out, I fired back at him asking why he wasn't asking the person he currently has as a mentor.    As I was drawing boundaries and pushing back on him, I reminded him of a time I offered to help him build out his AI platform for a nominal $5K.  Well, he backdoored me and went straight to the source.    He didn't like that much when I presented facts and further asked why he wasn't talking to the guy he hired to mentor him.    The truth is, there aren't many in this space I'm in that would take the time to entertain his questions on a Sunday morning.     Let's just say he didn't like the boundaries I layed down for him.    When people don't respect you, or value your time, they won't respect or value your boundaries, either.    It's a huge red flag.     Pay attention.    About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

One of the biggest misconceptions most people have is we think other people actually care about us.    And nothing can be further from the truth.    People only care about what they care about.    When it comes to sales, it's important to remember, most popelpe are not going to jump at the first offer you make.    And I see so many people run the typical line of "Hey buy my shit."   "If you like this, then you'll really like this....it's only XYZ-dollars."    The truth is, you have to be a bit smoother when you're approaching people.    It requires you actually caring enough to take the time to find out what they like.    What they think.    What they enjoy doing.    Why they do what they do.     So how do you build rapport long enough to have a conversation and gain someone's trust, especailly if they're a perfect stranger?    I'm glad you asked.    I'm going to cover how to be a socail recon master in this episode and how to leverage it to make more connections.    Build relationships.    Make more offers.    And close more sales.    About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

One of my favorite podcasts is the Joe Rogan Podcast.    He always has cool guests on ranging from every day people to Presidents, thought leaders, cutting-edge doctors, and most people that don't get the air time they deserve.    Six months ago, I was listening to an episode where he's talking with his guest about creatin being a powerful sleep aid.    I thought, "That's for working out."    It was the precursor to TRT.    Get big muscles and work out.    But as I listened, I did a deep dive on the company and the supplements that are transforming the way people live and finally get some sleep.    If you haven't heard of the comapny, check out Burst Nutrition based out of Dallas.    This episode has allowed me to sleep like a baby over the last 6 months.    If you struggle with getting restful sleep, I'm sharing my formula that keeps me fresh, rested, and ready to kick ass and take names in less than 6 hours a night.      About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

Every week, I log tons of hours behind my desk, at my computer.    I'm pounded by blue screen time every single day, but I have to recharge.    Every Saturday, for the last 3 years, I've run to my ranch in Oklahoma.    It's a quiet, and beautiful space with winding roads and rolling plains.   There I have ponds, ATV roads, a river, cattle, fish, and everything else you can imagine.   It's my workplace for my body.     While I work out every single morening, getting outside and getting dirty is required.    There's always something to collect, piles of wood from fallen branches or trees, fires to start, cows to check on, and grass to cut.     I have no shortage of things to do.    I leave my phone and take off to the wide open spaces every single week.    I've found it's been hugely beneficial for my mental health and my physical well-being.    It keeps me connected to to planet and I look forward to the end of the weekend when I'm physically tired from the work, but mentally recharged to solve problems during the week.    At minimum, I would suggest you spend a full day doing some type of manual labor every single week.    It's juicing for the soul.    Get you some.    About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

Let's flash forward into the future 3 years.     You're applying for a job and you're going up against someone with an MBA.  That person is well-qualified and is probably the more attractive candidate for the job.    Let's say you have an Associates degree, but you happened to learn A.I. along the way.     You've implemented it in every single job you've had over the last 3 years.    When it comes time to getting an offer letter, if the person with the MBA hasn't mastered A.I., they're not going to land that job over you.    That's the good news.    Keep in mind, companies like Sony are not going to come here and invest tons of money and ignore cheap labor.     Sure, they'll be here for a season, but the United States is not going to pay the high wages commanded by the American workforce, especially when there are ways to scale a company by simply using A.I.    There will be no unions to pay, 401K, retirement, etc.    It's not a viable proposition.    I say that to say this............   A couple of years ago, I had close to 100 employees.    Today, I have 30, thanks to A.I.    Each one of them knows how to leverage A.I.   They are agents of A.I. and this is what future employers will be in search of.    So, if you're thinking about what you should be focused on now..............it's becoming an agent of A.I.      About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

I was in a Facebook group with mortgage professionals a few days ago and I noticed one person was asking about getting a printed copy of marketing materials I was sharing.    Instead of clowning on the loan officer, the group turned their attention to Real Estate agents citing how important it was to share their marketing materials with real estate agents and hard selling them on selling you as a loan officer.    None of the suggestions were the right answer and it boils all down to one thing.     That one thing requires you to ask certain questions, like, "What does this person need more than anything in their business?"    "How can I best help this person with their marketing efforts?"    Simply, it starts with not making it about you.    The truth is, it begins with becoming a person of value.    So, how do you become a true person of value?    It's not fancy marketing materials, or flashy websites, or co-sponsorships........   It's something more.......   Lean in and listen to find out.....   About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

They valued it at $3 billion, so I thought once it goes public, the price will shoot through the roof.    I was wrong.    It was only worth 62-cents a share by the time they launched their IPO.    People get upset when they lose money, not realizing they actually paid for the lesson or experience.    My loss has been taken on paper.  This was one of the lessons I learned.    The second was learning more about the company's debt and if they're hemorraging money.    These are lessons that allowed me to learn lessons so I could make better investments the next time they came around.    There was a year when I lost $1.5 million in investments with companies I thought were solid.    I asked my wife why God would do this to us.     She simply stated, "Be grateful it was at a million and not 10."    So, when you take risks and make investments, don't sit too long with the failures, but pull the valuable and priceless experiences you got from them that have prepared you for the future.      I bought in at  About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

You probably don't know this, but I used to be an electrician's helper.    They called me spider monkey and I'd carry cables and wires through the ceiling.    This is where I learned about currents.    Money is very much like a current.    When you start saving it up, it's stops.    The key is to keeping it moving so you can keep the currency (current flowing) of your money.    If I know I'm making $100K  and $50K is going to go to my cost of living, how do I take the other and create streams of currents (currency) that helps my money grow.    Whatever you spend, expect to get a return for every dollar you spend.    If you have expendable cash, put it into something that generates you more cash.    This is how you keep the current of currency flowing.    About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

You remember Charlie Sheen?    He came up with the best line of that year.    When he was asked about sleeping with hookers.    Having aids.    Being on drugs.    His simple response when asked about this, he felt like he was "winning."    If I make $10M a year, it's winning.   For someone like Ed Mylett or Donald Trump, having $20M a year is broke.    The key to an abundant life is having gratitude.    Staying in shape and living healthily so I can enjoy the fruits of my work.    Focusing on my finances is important.  If I watch those and be a good steward of them, I can have what I want.    Having a specific group of people around me is important.     Spending time with the right people, working with the right people, and only talking with those I want to speak to has become more important than ever in being able to keep my peace.    Stay focused on these four main areas of your life and you'll start to win, too!    About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

We are on the teetering edge of a massive economic recession.    I know what you're going to say........."Trump, blah, blah, blah...."   No, this started a long time back.    We've seen the stock market rise and fall.    Bitcoin swelled to astronomical heights.    Our current real estate market is about to get whooped more than it has been lately.    The boomers have maybe about 15 years before they kick the bucket.     This means, a big wealth transfer is coming once they leave.    When I started seeing this shift a year and a half ago, I started trading in my cars, fancy watches, and real estate.    I'd rather be sitting on my ranch with head of cattle I can sell if shit gets tough.    I have been liquidating everything in my budget that doesn't fit because I'm getting ready for the opportunities.    In about 6 months, shit is going to get real tight.    You'll thank me if you start liquidating everything you can.    Prepare yourself.    It's better to be prepared and have it not happen than not be prepared and have it tank you and your family.      About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.
