all right let's uh 10x are thinking
0:03
today yeah we're going to be diving into
0:06
grant cardone's the 10x rule love it
0:09
using this really awesome summary that
0:10
you put together for us it's great a
0:12
fantastic way to get the key Concepts
0:14
out and really kind of apply it to your
0:16
own life exactly so the 10x rule for
0:19
people who haven't heard of it right is
0:20
basically all about setting goals 10
0:24
times higher than you think you need and
0:27
putting in 10 times the effort to hit
0:28
them you got it I have to admit when I
0:30
first heard about it I was like this
0:31
sounds crazy like is this even possible
0:34
Right but the more I kind of dug into it
0:37
yeah I realized there's actually a
0:39
method there is to this 10x Madness it's
0:42
definitely a bold approach challenges
0:44
conventional wisdom about how we set
0:47
goals and it really pushes you to break
0:50
free from limitations for sure what I
0:52
think is so interesting about cardone's
0:54
approach is this yeah he doesn't just
0:56
talk about setting bigger goals right he
0:59
emphasizes
1:00
Massive Action and he says that most
1:03
people operate at one of four levels of
1:05
action okay let's uh do nothing Retreat
1:09
normal action and Massive Action got it
1:12
which of course is the 10x way right so
1:15
it's easy to see how we all fall into
1:16
those first three right totally
1:19
procrastinate avoid challenges or just
1:21
put in the bare minimum right just
1:23
enough to get just enough to get by
1:25
exactly but to achieve extraordinary
1:28
results you've got to operate at that
1:29
that fourth level Massive Action Massive
1:32
Action so instead of just dipping our
1:33
toes in the water we need to like jump
1:36
in dive in head first Cannonball exactly
1:40
right into the deep end he uses a great
1:42
analogy to illustrate this think about
1:45
the way that children approach new
1:48
challenges they're not afraid to fail
1:50
they don't worry what other people think
1:52
they just go Allin give it everything
1:54
they've got I love that it's like um you
1:57
see a little kid building a Lego Tower
2:00
totally totally focused deter nothing's
2:02
going to stop them right that's the kind
2:04
of energy we need to bring to our goals
2:06
it's tapping back into that yeah pure
2:08
enthusiasm for creating for achieving
2:10
and I think this ties directly into why
2:12
aiming for average can actually set us
2:15
up for failure yeah this is where the
2:17
10x thinking really shines okay because
2:21
in a world that's constantly changing
2:23
evolving right what's considered average
2:26
today right might be obsolete tomorrow
2:29
yeah that's a good point you think back
2:31
to the 2008 financial crisis oh yeah it
2:34
hit the middle class hard it highlighted
2:37
the danger of settling for just a
2:38
comfortable existence for just being
2:40
comfortable yeah 10x thinking is about
2:43
future proofing your success so it's not
2:45
enough to just keep up with the Joneses
2:47
we need to be striving for something Way
2:49
Beyond that constantly pushing ourselves
2:52
challenging limitations yeah which can
2:54
be scary which is why Cardone sees fear
2:57
as a good thing wait fear like being
3:00
afraid yeah I feel like most people try
3:02
to avoid fear at all costs right but he
3:05
flips the script on that okay he says
3:06
that fear is an indicator that you're on
3:08
the right track interesting that you're
3:10
pushing yourself beyond that comfort
3:12
zone okay if you're not feeling any fear
3:14
you're probably not aiming high enough
3:16
so those butterflies in our stomach yeah
3:18
we should actually embrace them embrace
3:20
them as a sign that we're on the verge
3:22
of something big absolutely wow okay so
3:26
we've talked about taking Massive Action
3:28
embracing fear uhhuh
3:30
but what about time like how do we find
3:33
the time to do 10 times more right than
3:36
we're already doing that brings us to
3:38
time management the myth of time
3:40
management okay Cardone says it's not
3:42
about managing time it's about managing
3:44
your output within that time right we
3:47
all have the same 24 hours exactly it's
3:49
what we do with those 24 hours right he
3:51
actually has a personal story about this
3:52
when his daughter was born he started
3:54
waking up an hour earlier so that he
3:56
could spend time with her without
3:58
sacrificing his work
4:00
that's sweet and he just shifted things
4:02
around made it work that's such a good
4:04
illustration of like how 10x thinking
4:07
can force us to get creative with our
4:09
time exactly to become more resourceful
4:12
yes it's about resourcefulness and this
4:14
brings us to something I think is really
4:15
interesting okay customer satisfaction
4:18
versus customer acquisition of this
4:21
because we're always told the customer
4:23
always right right customer satisfaction
4:26
is key right that's like the that's what
4:27
they say Golden Rule of business right
4:30
but Cardone actually kind of flips that
4:32
on his head a little bit he challenges
4:34
it yeah he says that focusing initially
4:37
on massive customer growth can be more
4:41
beneficial than obsessing over perfect
4:43
satisfaction right away interesting
4:45
obviously customer satisfaction is
4:46
important but sometimes you got to
4:48
disrupt the norm okay to achieve 10x
4:51
results so like get your product out
4:53
there then worry about making everyone
4:55
happy exactly get it out there build
4:57
some momentum then fine-tune it so like
4:59
a prototype get feedback as you go
5:02
exactly it's a process it's not like a
5:04
onetime thing right you're constantly
5:06
improving constantly evolving this is
5:08
making me rethink my whole approach to
5:10
well pretty much everything and we're
5:12
just getting started oh boy next we're
5:14
going to dive into Breaking Free from
5:17
the middle class mindset now hold on
5:20
when we say that yeah we're not talking
5:22
about income brackets no no not at all
5:24
it's more about like a way of thinking a
5:27
mentality a mindset yeah so what does
5:30
that look like yeah and how do we break
5:32
free it's about recognizing those
5:35
self-imposed limitations those ceilings
5:38
we put on ourselves ooh interesting
5:40
we'll unpack that and more right after
5:42
this quick break okay so we're talking
5:44
about breaking free from the middle
5:46
class mindset yeah it's a powerful idea
5:49
but I'm uh I'm still not totally sure
5:51
what it actually means yeah it's not
5:53
about your income level it's more about
5:55
a way of thinking a mentality that can
5:58
hold people back from reaching your full
6:00
potential so what does that look like
6:02
think about the way a lot of people
6:03
approach their goals they set these
6:05
small achievable goals because they're
6:09
afraid to fail or you know they settle
6:11
for good enough yeah instead of shooting
6:13
for the Stars instead of striving for
6:15
greatness exactly so it's like that
6:16
voice in our heads it's always telling
6:18
us to play it safe yeah don't aim too
6:21
high don't take too many risks exactly
6:23
stay within your comfort zone and that's
6:26
exactly what cardone's pushing back
6:28
against he wants us to break break free
6:30
from those limitations and reach for
6:32
something extraordinary so how do we
6:34
actually do that how do we shift our
6:36
mindset to think in a more you know 10x
6:40
kind of way it starts with awareness you
6:42
know okay recognizing those limiting
6:45
beliefs that are holding us back uh and
6:47
then consciously choosing to replace
6:49
those beliefs with more empowering ones
6:52
so instead of saying I could never do
6:54
that yeah we started saying what would
6:56
it take for me to achieve that exactly
6:58
it's a subtle shift but it make all the
7:00
difference and that ties in with the
7:01
whole abundance mindset right yes
7:04
absolutely believing that there's enough
7:05
success to go around that we all have
7:07
the potential to achieve great things
7:09
that's a really empowering thought it is
7:11
and it leads us to another important
7:13
point the power of name recognition ah
7:17
yes I remember Cardone talks a lot about
7:19
building a strong personal brand he does
7:22
he believes it's one of the most
7:24
valuable assets we can have like that
7:26
saying you never get a second chance to
7:28
make a first impression exactly L and in
7:30
today's world with so much information
7:32
and competition having a recognizable
7:35
name or brand can make all the
7:37
difference think about companies like
7:39
apple or Uber yeah they've become
7:41
synonymous with their Industries they've
7:42
built such strong brand recognition that
7:44
their names have become verbs you Google
7:47
something you Uber Somewhere That's The
7:49
Power of a memorable name and it's not
7:52
just companies individuals can build
7:54
strong personal Brands too absolutely
7:56
you see it all the time with thought
7:58
leaders influencers or even people in
8:00
your own network who have a reputation
8:01
for excellence it's about becoming the
8:03
go-to person in your field it's about
8:06
building trust and credibility which
8:08
takes time and effort and consistent
8:11
action so how do we start building that
8:14
kind of name recognition it starts with
8:17
identifying your unique value
8:18
proposition okay what are you truly
8:21
passionate about yeah what are you good
8:23
at what makes you stand out once you
8:25
figure that out then it's all about
8:26
putting yourself out there right exactly
8:28
share your knowledge your expertise your
8:30
story Network collaborate build
8:33
relationships yes and consistently
8:35
deliver value to your audience you know
8:38
this reminds me of what we were talking
8:39
about earlier oh yeah about embracing
8:41
fear right because building a personal
8:43
brand often requires us to step outside
8:46
of our comfort zones put ourselves out
8:48
there in a way that feels I don't know
8:51
kind of vulnerable but that
8:52
vulnerability can be powerful yeah it
8:54
allows us to connect with others on a
8:56
deeper level to build trust and
8:58
authenticity and ultimately Ely to
9:00
create a name for ourselves that
9:01
resonates with the people we want to
9:03
reach exactly wow we've covered a lot of
9:05
ground today we have we've talked about
9:07
setting 10x goals taking Massive Action
9:10
embracing fear breaching free from
9:12
limiting beliefs we've explored the
9:14
importance of managing our output
9:16
prioritizing customer acquisition and
9:18
building a strong personal brand pH my
9:21
brain is full but in a good way it's a
9:23
lot to process but it's incredibly
9:25
empowering it really is so what's the
9:28
one key takeaway if our listeners
9:30
remember one thing from this whole
9:32
conversation about the 10x
9:34
rule what should it be I think the most
9:36
important thing is to remember that
9:38
success is a choice o it's not something
9:41
that just happens to us it's something
9:43
we create through our actions our
9:45
beliefs our commitment to reaching our
9:47
full potential and that is the essence
9:49
of the 10x rule yeah it really is so as
9:51
we wrapping this up I'm curious what's
9:54
resonating most with you from all this
9:55
what's like one big takeaway from the
9:58
10x rule that you're going to watch away
9:59
with h I think for me what stands out is
10:02
how this isn't just about like external
10:04
success it's about pushing ourselves to
10:07
become better like the best version of
10:09
ourselves embracing those challenges the
10:11
risks you know constantly trying to grow
10:14
right and even if we don't like actually
10:16
hit that 10x mark on every goal imagine
10:19
the progress we'll make just by Trying
10:21
by putting in the effort oh yeah totally
10:23
it makes me think about what Cardone
10:24
said about fear being a compass reminds
10:27
me of that Elanor Roosevelt quote do one
10:29
thing every day that scares you I love
10:31
that and it's so true it doesn't have to
10:33
be huge just something that pushes you a
10:35
little yeah so thinking about that
10:37
what's one step even a small one that
10:39
you could take today toward a goal
10:41
you've been putting off could be
10:43
reaching out to someone signing up for
10:45
that course finally starting that
10:46
project even just writing down that 10x
10:48
goal putting it somewhere you'll see it
10:49
every day like that visual reminder it
10:51
can be really powerful totally so as we
10:55
wrap up this deep dive into the 10x rle
10:57
here's my final thought-provoking
10:59
question for you what's one goal you're
11:01
ready to 10x and what's the first bold
11:04
action you can take today to make it
11:06
happen remember even those small steps

11:11
