[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #6 ~ Exactly Why Lottery Winners Go Broke

If you had the choice between a deposit of $5 million into your bank account or a change in your belief system to include the knowing that you can have whatever amount of money you want, which would you choose?

Most people would choose the $5 million, but you would be wise to pick the latter because, if that money were put into your account and you didn’t change your underlying beliefs, you’d be back to where you are today pretty quickly.

In fact, the majority of lottery winners end up broke several years later.

That’s because the subconscious mind, which includes the belief system, works like a thermostat.

Where Is Your Thermostat Set?

If you set a thermostat at 72 degrees and the temperature drops below that, the heat will come on to bring the temperature back to 72. If it gets hotter than that, the air conditioner will kick on to bring the room back to its set point.

Similarly, if you were programmed to struggle financially, like many of us were, and you’re thrust into sudden wealth, your subconscious mind will kick up a fuss in order to bring you back to where you’re “supposed” to be.

We see this all of the time in our culture. People increase their income and, all of a sudden, their life goes to hell in a handbasket. If they don’t understand what’s happening, most will conclude that success is “too hard” or it’s not the “right time,” and they’ll revert to where they were.

Shift Your Set Point

Because most of your beliefs were programmed before age seven and you may not even be aware of what they are, changing your set point around money requires diligence. You have to reject any ideas that reinforce lack and nurture faith in abundance.

Two simple ways to do that is to stop using coupons and waiting for sales. If you want something now, and you have the money for it, buy it. Say to yourself, “I deserve to be paid full price for what I do, so I’m going to pay somebody else full price as well.”

Also, reject any notion that money is bad.

Many of us were taught that money is suspect, yet hard work is good. So we’re working hard for something bad. That actually puts us in a conflicted place, as though we have one foot on the gas pedal and the other on the brake.

Is it any wonder that people find financial success difficult ~ and exhausting?

The truth is, as I’ve said, that money was an expansive idea that was given to us by the Universe to help us evolve as a species. We couldn’t have accomplished all that we have without it.

If you can really absorb that idea and change how you think about and deal with money everyday, your beliefs will shift.

You will push up the set point on your money thermostat.

You can create that $5 million and keep it, because you will know it’s yours.

Hi David,

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question!

I am a solopreneur. My business is finally really taking off, and I’m exhausted. I know I need to hire help, but I’m not sure where to start. Can you help me get clear on my next step in hiring a team?

Neagle                                               Code Answer


Hi Marcie and thanks for your question!

Generally a first hire for a solopreneur is an assistant.

I’m guessing that you are doing things that YOU don’t need to be doing, and eventually it’s going to affect your ability to grow and expand.

Here’s a little bit of homework for you:

Over the next 7 days keep a notebook by your desk, and as you go through your day, write down all the things that you do, that someone else can be doing for you.

This for both your personal life and your business life.

If you make a dentist appointment, write it down, because YOU don’t have to be the one making that appointment.

If you are researching something, write it down because YOU don’t have to be the person doing the research.

I think you’ll be shocked how much time you spend doing the menial things in your business.

And if you’re spending time on those things, you’re NOT spending as much time as you can on income generating tasks, which means you’re probably leaving thousands of dollars on the table.

Once you have your list created, you’ll be able to create a job description, and hire and train the appropriate person who is qualified to assist you.

Not only will you feel more relaxed in your business, you’ll also experience an increase in your income!

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #5 ~ Why Do You Need What You Need?

I told you last time that bringing in “your need” consistently is the key to getting what you want.

Your need is the amount to the penny that it takes to pay your bills each month. So, it’s your rent or mortgage, food, clothes, current business expenses, health insurance, monthly debt payment, and so on.

But it's also more than that.

Your need is your reality.

It’s a snapshot of where you are, and it offers unparalleled opportunity for insight and freedom.

What's the Story in that Snapshot?

To understand what your need is telling you, begin by calculating it. It's easy. Start with your accounting software or just pull out your check book, get a calculator, and add up the total of your bills. If your expenses vary drastically from month to month, just average the past several months.

After you have tallied your need, I want you to identify why you need that amount.

In other words, why do you have those particular bills?

You need what you need for a reason. You created the situation or circumstances in your life that you need that money for.

Chances are that situation is not a new story in your life. It’s a recurring story and may be a recurring story in your family as well.

For example, let’s say your need of $7,232.13 includes a $5,000 monthly mortgage payment and you and your spouse only bring in $6,000 a month. Let’s also say that you didn’t want to buy this house. You knew it was too expensive, but your spouse insisted, lied on your mortgage application to get it, and now you’re struggling every month.

You now have the opportunity to change that story forever. How? By taking responsibility for it.

Take Responsibility for Your Need

If you blame your spouse for buying the house, not only are you not seeing the situation clearly, but you’re powerless to change it.

However, when you take responsibility for the purchase, you may realize that you regularly allow your spouse’s judgment to override your own, and then retaliate with resentment and anger. That way, you get to be right and the victim. You may also recognize that lack, struggle, power plays and dishonesty were prevalent in your childhood as well.

This is great news, because now that you have acknowledged all of that and taken responsibility for creating it, you are empowered to change the situation.

You stand up to your spouse and begin to create a new story that can bring you prosperity, fulfilling relationships and growth.

And it all began with a simple calculation. So pull out your check register, and get started.

What if my speaker agreement doesn’t allow for an offer from the stage?

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions

comes from Michael Brown
.

Neagle                                               Code Question

Hi David,

I have a speaking opportunity coming up in the next month, and the host is not allowing me to make an offer from the stage. Do you have any strategies that I could use to let people know about my programs without making an offer? I’d really like to make the most of my time on stage.

Neagle                                               Code Answer


Hi Michael and thanks for your question!

I’m not sure how long you have on stage so I’m just going to make an assumption that you’ve got 45 minutes of speaking time.

The best way to “sell” your programs and services to your audience without the ability to make an actual offer is to do something called “seeding”.

Seeding simply means that you’re planting seeds in the mind of your audience about the results they could experience if they were working with you.

Here’s what it looks like.

As you’re delivering content, you insert stories and case studies about the results your clients have received while working with you.

EXAMPLE:

Let’s say you were doing a presentation on how to have a confident sale conversation. You may start by talking about all the negative beliefs we have about selling and how it keeps us hidden. Stop the teaching and insert your first seed.

“In my 3 month program, one of my clients actually pushed through heir fear of rejection and was able to triple their income in 30 days and help 10 more people to change their lives.”

The seeding not only supports your content and gives examples, but it also let’s the audience know that you have a 3 month program and that your clients achieve success.

I recommend planning to seed after every section of content you provide.

Tell stories and give case studies about your client’s successes to help them identify with what you offer and how you can help them.

DOs and DON’Ts of enrolling new clients!

Neagle                                               Code Question

Hi David,


My sales conversations are killing me. They can sometimes run 90 minutes and then I don’t even end up enrolling them. Can you give me some suggestions on how to shorter these conversations please?


Thank You!

Neagle                                               Code Answer

I would love to answer this question.

One of the main reasons you may be experiencing exasperating sales conversations is because you may not be in control of the conversation. Here are a few quick tips to set the call up from the beginning.

Don’t: Begin the conversation without the small talk or pleasantries. There’s no need for it.

Do: Begin by stating the purpose of the call and the length of time you have allotted for it.

Example: Hi John! It’s great to connect with you. The purpose of the call today is to help you get clear on what your current problem really is so that you can make a decision based on facts about what you can do to solve that problem. We’ve got about 20 minutes, so I’m just going to jump in. Is that ok with you?

Don’t: Be afraid of redirecting or interrupting.

Do: Ask them permission from the start to interrupt them if necessary.

Example: John, we have such a limited time that I’m going to ask your permission to interrupt you or redirect you if I feel we’re getting off track. Are you ok with that?

Don’t: Allow someone to ignore a question you asked.

Do: Point out that they’ve deflected a question and you’d like them return to it.

Example: That’s great John, and I can see that this is a point of growth for you because you just deflected my original question. Can we go back to the question I asked for a moment? Why do you want that goal for yourself?

Give these 3 strategies a try on your next call and see how much more effective you will be.

The difference will be a benefit to you both.

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #4 ~ Meeting Your Need Brings You What You Truly Want

If you want to bring in a lot more money, and you’re not doing it, you’re most certainly fighting a belief system you may not even realize you have.

You may intellectually understand what I said last time ~ if you desire the money, the opportunity to bring in that money is around you ~ but you don’t actually believe it.

Beliefs are reflected in and generate your results. In order to change your results, you have to change your beliefs. The best way to do that is to give yourself a new experience. When you give yourself a new experience, your subconscious has to accept it. When it does that, a new belief is born. That new belief then creates a new reality. It’s a beautiful upward spiral.

To activate that upward spiral in your life, start bringing in your need consistently every month.

Your need is what you require to the penny to pay your bills, and, if you’re not already doing so, bringing it in consistently is the surest and quickest way to get what you want.

The Power of Bringing in Your Need

For example, let’s say you want to make $25,000 a month, you need $7,026.35 a month, but you’re only making $3,500. If you aim for the $25,000 first, you’re not likely to make it. If your belief system won’t even let you have what you need, it’s not going to let you have what you want.

In other words, you won’t really believe you can make $25,000 a month. If you don’t believe it, you won’t do it.

However, if your goal is $7,026.35 ~ which is a grounded figure that’s close to where you are ~ and you start bringing it in consistently, you’ve created a new belief that you can take care of your needs. You also feel flush with pride and confidence, saying, Wow, I doubled my income, look at that!

From that place of greater faith in yourself and the universe, it can be a rapid ascent to the $25,000 you want.

Wants Often Originate from Lack

Another reason to aim for your need first is so that you clean up your belief system and stop creating your wants from fear.

For example, people will say that they want to make a large sum like $1 million or $10 million.

When asked why they want that sum, it’s often because they want to avoid pain and stress. They’ve struggled for so long around money, they wish they could just win the damn lottery and not have to deal with it anymore.

That want originates from an energetic place of lack. And because we get what we’re energetically equal to, instead of bringing in an opportunity to earn $1million, they will actually create situations that take away what they have.

If, instead, you focus first on what you need, and you change your belief system, building faith in abundance, your wants will originate from there.

They will be an expression of your highest self. And as you fufill them, you’ll experience a life of prosperity, purpose and joy.

Neagle                                               Code Question

Hi David,

My question deals with finding customers who can pay what I charge. I've heard you say that we must ask the ‘right people' (e.g. a homeless person has very limited ability to pay); but I've also heard you say that we shouldn't decide for our prospective clients what they can or can't afford. How do we then strike the right balance between asking the right people while at the same time not assuming what someone can or can't afford to pay?

 

Neagle                                               Code Answer
Hi and thanks for your question.

I think to answer this question, we have to look at what ‘the right people’ means.

When I teach about asking the right people, I mean the people who are your target market, and who want to make a change and have demonstrated their willingness change.

When I teach about not assuming what someone can and cannot afford, I mean that you don’t price your packages or choose your offerings based upon your own assumptions of what they can afford or may be willing to pay.

You should always recommend the fastest most effective way for them to reach their goals.

Let me explain.

I have had many clients fall in to the trap of offering someone a package based on what they think the prospect can afford, rather than on that prospect’s goals and aspirations. This actually takes away the right to choose from the prospect.

If you’ve fallen into this trap, please realize that this is not in service to your prospect and actually comes from a need within yourself to “get” from the client rather than to help them.

Always remember, if a prospect’s desire for change is strong enough, the money to pay for the change must also be present. You may have to help them find the money for the investment, but it HAS to be there.

If you went to a heart surgeon and he determined that you needed heart surgery, he would not assess whether he thought you could afford the procedure or not. He would tell you what you needed to stay alive, and then it would be your responsibility to follow his recommendation.

This is the same viewpoint you need to take with all of your sales conversations. Your job is to help them assess what they need and then recommend the fastest most effective way to get them there regardless of what you “think” they can pay.

Can I charge more than my competition?

comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.

Neagle                                               Code Question

Hi David,

How do you charge your clients more money? I feel like if I increase my prices, I will lose clients due to competition.

 

Neagle                                               Code Answer
Hi and thanks for your question.

The key to increasing your prices is to make the decision, and then ensure that you give more in value than what you charge.

It’s that simple.

I’m not sure what line of business you are in, but I’m going to use a service-based business as an example here.

Let’s take a look at restaurants. There millions of restaurants out there, and if you look at the really successful ones, you can learn a lot.

Successful businesses all have one thing in common.

They all have a unique selling proposition.

Your unique selling proposition sets you apart from the crowd.

It’s what makes you unique, and if you are unique, you won’t have to be concerned with competition.

Let’s go back to the successful restaurant.

A unique selling proposition for a restaurant may be that they specialize in one particular type of food, maybe they only use farm to table ingredients, maybe they have live piano music playing during dinner or maybe you can throw peanut shells on the floor.

Whatever it is, it is designed to SET THEM APART FROM THE CROWD.

To find your unique selling proposition, think about what makes YOU unique.

What services do you offer that make what you do extraordinary?

Once you can identify your unique selling proposition, you won’t have to be concerned with competition, and you can no longer use it as an excuse to charge less than what you are truly worth.

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #3 ~ The Magic Box at Your Command

Whenever we have money problems, we tend to worry, struggle, tighten the purse strings and engage in other types of lack-inspired thinking and behaviors that actually push money away.

Not only does a mindset of lack push money away, but it also blocks ideas that would bring money in. It’s as though you have a little man in your head with a flyswatter, flicking away those pesky, expansive ideas from the Universe that don’t match what he believes.

Now imagine that you have a little magic box in your home that produces whatever you want, whenever you want it. Imagine how that would change how you think and feel.

Fear, worry and insecurity would fade, because you’d know that you could go to your magic box whenever you wanted something.

Your Magic Box

The truth is you have such a box. You can have any amount of money you want, whenever you want it.

The Law of Polarity states that if you have a need or a desire, the way to fulfill that desire has to exist in your life as well. You just have to reach out and grab it.

The money that you want, the thing you desire, is as close as your own breath. It doesn’t require great amounts of learning or strategy.

Let’s say you earn $100,000 a year, and you want to earn $10 million.

To earn that $10 million, you will definitely need a different way of making money than you have now, but the first step to that new way is in your life right now. And it may not take as long as you think to reach $10 million.

It will require a mental shift. You will have to put your faith in the Law of Polarity, and send the man with the flyswatter packing.

Then, brilliant money-making ideas will actually get through to you. You’ll take action on them and give yourself a new experience. Let’s be modest and say you double your income. Your subconscious won’t be able to deny that you doubled your income, and it will form a new belief that you can do that.

Armed with this new belief, you can ascend even faster, tripling, quintupling or increasing your income even more. My clients and students make massive leaps all the time.

That can begin for you today with your faith that life can be better, that the Law of Polarity is true.

So imagine that magic box in your home, apply what you learn in this series, and just watch what you can do!

How can I monetize my email list?

Hi David,

 

How do I convert more people on my list into paying clients? I have a nice sized list, but I'm struggling to pay my bills!

 

Thank you so much!

Neagle                                               Code Answer
Hi MaryAnne and thanks for your question!

 

Depending on how many subscribers you have, a fantastic strategy to monetize your list is to create a teleseminar.

Let me explain.

Part of the challenge of monetizing your list is not having phone numbers.

If you don't have phone numbers, you can't personally reach out to someone to see if they need your help.

The following teleseminar strategy is designed to get people on your list to raise their hand so you can see who wants help.

Create a 3-part teaching teleseminar and make sure you're providing really rich content that is in complete service to your subscribers.

You may want to choose a specific problem that you're noticing is plaguing your market.

Go deep in your teaching about the “what” and the “why” of this problem.

And then as you are wrapping the call, let the listeners know that you are opening some spots in your calendar to talk to them about how this topic directly relates to them in their individual situations.

Let them know that you are only opening up a “few” spots (we recommend 5-10) for the first people to send you an email indicating they would like to have a session with you.

When you receive their email, send them a brief questionnaire so you can be prepared for their session.

If during the session it becomes clear that they need your help, and you can help them, offer them the service that fits their goals.

Rinse and repeat!
