This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from an individual who wishes to remain anonymous. 

Question:

How do you get to frame your mind to be solid like a rock?

Answer:

Hi and thanks for the question!

There are two key factors in creating a rock solid mindset.

One is understanding, and the other is experience.

Allow me to explain.

I am an avid student. One of the really great things my mentor taught me a long time ago was how to study, and to this day I never travel anywhere without my books.

I'm constantly holding my thoughts up to the light of the truth that is found in those books.

In this way, I can consciously understand what's happening around me.

This is step one of a solid mindset. Study.

The second step is to give yourself a different experience, because you see, deep in your subconscious.experience creates understanding

If you don't give your self a different experience, your new understanding doesn't become part of who you are being.

Let me give you an example.

Sue is reading about abundance, and she learns that her environment is incredibly important in manifesting her desires. She consciously understands the concepts, and it makes complete sense to her.

She looks around her office and notices that she really needs some organizers and that flowers would really make a difference.

The next time she's at the store, she sees the most beautiful bouquet of flowers and it stops her.

She really wants the flowers, but doesn't like the price tag, and even though she feels different energetically around the flowers, she decides to pass them by because she believes they are too expensive.

Sue has a conscious understanding of the Laws, but she's not putting those laws into practice, therefore her understanding has not become part of who she is being, and her mindset is not rock solid.

She desperately wants an abundant life, and yet, she makes her decisions based in lack.

Have faith in the Laws and put them into practice in every area of your life.

It's the only way to create a rock solid mindset.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Martha Brown.

Question:

Hi David,
I am working my day job while I'm building my business. When you got started, how did you structure your time so there is balance among self, family, day job, and building a business?

Answer:

Hi Martha and thanks for your question.

In order for me to properly address this question, I have to bring in the Law of Sacrifice.

The Law of Sacrifice states that you have to let go of something of a lower nature to allow space for something of a higher nature to take it's place.

Let me explain… generally when you're growing, you have to go out of balance to regain balance.

You go out of balance because something has to be sacrificed in order to achieve your goal.

You can't grow your business without giving it the proper amount of attention and time, which means that attention and time has to be sacrificed in the areas of family, job or self. After all, there are only 24 hours in a day.

Once your business is established, you regain balance because you no longer need to split attention between building your business and your job. This allows more time for family and self.

While you're going through a transition, it's essential to create VERY strong boundaries around how you are going to divide your time. Let me give you an example. If you know that you're going t need to take time from your family to build your business in the evenings, you need to be very upfront with your family about your decision. Let them know that while you are working on your business in the evenings, you can not be disturbed, however, when you are spending time with them, they will have your 100% undivided attention.

The truth is there is nothing unhealthy about being out of balance for short periods of time, in fact it's required if you are ever going to grow.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from an individual who wishes to remain anonymous.

Question:

Hi David,
You've mentioned the law, “If you have a strong enough desire for something, the money MUST be there.” Please say more about how this works. For instance, if I SHOULD manifest enough money to pay off debt, does this mean that I don't DESIRE it enough to manifest the money because it's more of a “should.” Or, in another case, if I really, really desire the $12,000 diamond necklace I saw in a window yesterday, am I likely to manifest the money. And if there is a conflict, as in a “should” and a “desire,” how do I resolve the conflict and do both.
P.S. Love your work.

Answer:

Thanks for this great question!

Most people aren't excited about paying debt, but that doesn't mean the money isn't there. I recommend paying off your debt AND buying the $12,000.00 necklace.

Your goals should allow you to accomplish ANYTHING you want, and if paying off your debt and purchasing a diamond necklace is what you want, that's the goal you should be setting.

However, you don't need to focus on paying all your debt at once. There's nothing wrong with paying it off in increments. You don't want to make paying off that debt a hardship for yourself, or you'll come to resent it, and that opens up a new problem. Make sure you don't sacrifice everything to pay it off.

The only flip side to your “desire and should” question has to do with shame.

If you have shame around your debt, if you're embarrassed by it, or try to hide it, you will have a difficult time manifesting the money needed to pay it off.

Why?

Because how you do anything is how you do everything, and if you're experiencing shame, it will prevent you from doing the things necessary to manifest the money.

So if you can't see that debt is simply a tool and be grateful for it and truly appreciate what it's provided to you, you may want to take a long hard look as to how you actually feel about the debt.

Once you drop the shame and negative feelings around it, you'll be surprised how much easier it will be to manifest the money to pay it off.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Eric Johnson. You can find him on the web at http://www.divorceutah.com/

Question:

Hi David,
Assuming it is wrong to charge a man dying of thirst $100 for a glass of water and wrong to deny a starving man food, particularly if I have more than enough, how do I justify selling a service that people of all income levels need, but which most people truly cannot afford at the rates I charge because the rates clearly exceed the average person's ability to pay? I am a divorce attorney.

Answer:

Hi Eric!

I know a lot of coaches and business consultants that struggle with this same concept.

First of all, I don't quite think your comparison makes a whole lot of sense. Charging a dying man $100.00 for a glass of water doesn't really compare with charging attorney's fees.

Here's the deal…it's not your responsibility to save the world. If it were, you'd be the only divorce attorney in the world.

The truth is that you're looking at this all wrong.

The LAW states that if someone has a strong enough desire for something, the money MUST be there. What you're talking about is no different.

And your responsibility is to yourself only (and any dependent children of course).

Here's how I suggest you look at your fees.

Your fees MUST be set on your personal financial goals AND the value of the service that you offer. The value of what you offer must exceed the fees that you're charging.

The people who have the ability or willingness to pay you, WILL. And those that do not will find someone else to help them.

It's a win-win situation. You get to work with the people who you really enjoy working with, and people who aren't willing to pay your fees will pay someone else to work with them.

More life to all.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Kim Peterson. You can find her on the web at http://commonsensehealth.org/

Question:

Hi David,
I am passionate about helping people take their lives to the next level by changing paradigms about Health, Wellness & Success. I have spent the past two years building a following (500 group members, 2,100 + FB fans, & close to 11,000 Twitter followers), credibility and community…what I have not been doing is generating the financial reward I'd hoped. I am still having a challenge with what the actual business model is.
I love to help, generate a buzz and get people pumped but I need help with how that turns into cash. Please help!

Answer:

Hi Kim!

I understand why you're having problems with a business model…you're not clear on your target market.

After looking at your website, it's clear that you're passionate about health and wellness, but it's NOT clear what exactly you do.

Your blog is great. It's full of really helpful information about recipes, health and tips. It seems to me that it speaks to anyone who is interested in improving their health.

However, when I clicked your “How Can We Help” tab, the services you describe speak directly to the fellow health practitioner. You wrote about your passion and ability to help them build their business.

To me, this is really confusing.

Ask yourself, who you most enjoy working with. Do you like helping individuals improve their own health, or do you like helping other wellness professionals build their business?

Once you've made that decision, dig even deeper.

Who is this ideal client EXACTLY? Describe them in as much detail as if they were standing in front of you telling you all about themselves.

Then get very clear on what “symptoms” are showing up in this person's life or business.

This will lead you in creating a program or package that can help them and be of great service to them.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Anna.

Question:

Hi David,
I find myself obsessing over business card and website design for my local service business, and nothing I produce ever satisfies me. I am at the point where I'd be happier just forgetting about those marketing tools completely. I'd rather approach prospects face-to-face and rely on my personality and positive energy instead. Do you think it's a mistake for me to not have business cards and a website?
Thank you for your time!

Answer:

Hi and thanks for your question!

You know, I NEVER carry business cards and I tell all my students to do the same.

When networking, if someone asks for your card, tell them that you don't carry cards, but you'd be happy to take one of theirs and follow up with them. Take their card and write notes on the back so you can remember the conversation you had.

That way YOU are in control of the follow up.

Last year my website was down for almost a year, and my company GREW!

Actually it was my best year yet.

Most marketers will tell you that you MUST have a website. I disagree.

NOTHING can take the place of a personalized person-to-person approach to sales.

In fact, in this market, it's been the single most IMPORTANT thing my company has done.

Don't get me wrong, a website has a purpose, but if your most pressing need is sales and income, a website is not going to get you closer to that goal. Your ability to reach out to someone, have an effective conversation, and close a sale WILL.

My advice would be to prioritize.

First, bring in the sales through one on one conversations, and when you have the capital, build a website that focuses on collecting opt-ins to build your marketing list.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Anna.

Question:

What if you and your husband have very different beliefs around money? I know you can't change people, but it is frustrating because I understand the principles.
I appreciate your response.

Answer:

Money and relationships are pretty tricky, but they don't have to be.

If you and your husband have different beliefs around money, I recommend that you both start taking responsibility for yourselves.

Make your own money, have your own banking accounts, and split the joint bills and expenses.

If you want to save for a trip and he doesn't, go without him, but be prepared for him to do the same.

So many couples struggle with money, especially if one partner makes more than the other. Sometimes it works great and other times it's incredibly disempowering for the person who is not the breadwinner.

If you feel like your decisions are limited by your husband's money mindset, you need to have a heart to heart conversation with him, and let him know that from now on, you'll both be responsible for the bills, but that everything else will go into separate accounts.

This gives him the freedom to do what he wants with his income, and it gives you the freedom as well.

It's against the laws to ask him to change, this way, you'll both have the freedom to believe what you want about money and spend as save as you wish.
