I received this email from somebody who was stuck in a rut for 15 years and they were finally inspired to make a change based on something that I said I'm going to talk about what I said in this video and I'm going to give you a simple three step solution to make sure you can also do with successful people generally always do let's get started hey everyone I'm meet Kevin I'm a real estate broker used to be a licensed A lender a licensed contractor and now I'm a financial advisor I run an actively managed ETF I have a real estate startup I got a plane we fly around and we do work and there have been a lot of lessons that I've learned in my career starting out with no money and working at Hollister and then Jamba Juice and getting a 10 cent raise to deciding you know what I'm gonna go become an entrepreneur become a real estate agent there are lessons that I learned throughout everything and this email really throws me back to some of those lessons I'm going to share those with you listen to this email first quote Kevin I have been an avid follower for some time and something struck me a few months back you mentioned making yourself more valuable to your employer I can't remember exactly how you phrased it but the concept stuck with me so with that in mind I decided to teach myself how to become a licensed optician in the state of California I probably butchered that word by the way I had to look it up okay I'd look it up and try to figure it out what it was but anyway we'll talk about that in a moment on my own time while still focusing on my current career apparently it's somebody who works with eyeglasses and works for like an optometrist anywho well fast forward five months later five months just five months later I managed to pass both tests and my current employer gave me a substantial race and created more job security in this specialized field so for that push I'd like to thank you without your inspiring videos I'd be stuck in the same rut I've been in for 15 plus years first of all congratulations to this person well what lessons can we take away from this first and this isn't part of the three steps but the first is value we're always trying to figure out how to provide more there's an important lesson a lot of people go through life and point the finger and say man I can't do something because of them I can't do something because of that or somebody hurt me and they're always pointing the finger but the fact is every time you point the finger three fingers point right back at you in fact life in certainly a capitalistic economy is the more you give the more you tend to get for example on YouTube I try to provide value for free every single day and people who like the value I provide often sign up for ometimes people they want to get an edge in investing in real estate so they learn everything I know so they can add that to their repertoire it's like adding a tool to your belt they want to be a better real estate agent they want to be able to invest in stocks or at least analyze stocks the way I do because even if they learned one thing that got them into a stock that they didn't think could make them a lot of money maybe then they could pay for themselves or their own education by investing in themselves and learning something from somebody else which by the way we're working on emails because we've got coupons expiring tonight for till going through some of those emails so I'm going to keep that live for a little bit longer until we get caught up with the emails if you want to email us send us an email at staff and meet kevin.com but we'll make be making that pricing change very soon but so the rule of thumb here is always how can you make yourself more valuable and that is a question all of us should ask ourselves sometimes it's not very clear though how to figure out how to become more valuable and this is where I'd like to introduce the three things that successful people always seem to do the first is starting with what I like to call the Tesla Factory line shutdown you know how sometimes especially if you're a Tesla investor Tesla's like hey uh we're shutting down the factory for a few weeks because we gotta redo the line and then everybody's freaking out like oh my gosh the company is going to stop making cars it's going to be bad for sales right but it usually isn't bad for sales it's actually usually fantastic for the company because they make an existing process more efficient they put in more efficient Hardware or they improve and train people in better processes and this is the same thing that's important to do as an individual whether you're an employee or you're stuck in a rut you're an entrepreneur you're frustrated you feel like you're going to the Grind every day and you're just not getting ahead it's really important to try to incorporate in your life Factory shutdown and so that's what I like to do Step One is shut the factory down shut yourself down and just clear your schedule it could be a Friday Saturday Monday it could be a Friday and Saturday it could be uh Friday to Friday give yourself at least two to seven days and just clear the schedule take a break from your ordinary routines and then combine it with number two write down various goals that you might have maybe finally you want to try to start becoming a real estate agent or you know what you decide you want to become a registered investment advisor I'm a registered investment advisor I actually decided to become a registered investment advisor in one of these Factory line shutdowns I decided to take a two-week break and in that time I decided you know what I'm going to become a registered investment advisor myself and so within 20 minutes I was able to go to Kaplan or one of the other websites download all the study material Thrill of the practice quizzes and I was on my way within 20 minutes for studying to be a registered investment advisor you can do that as well and then of course I studied for the rest of the two weeks and started and took the action steps like scheduling the test and even if you're not going to be 100 ready for the test take the test if you fail retake it in 30 days but the point is step one take a break step two make a list of things you think you want to accomplish maybe you want to accomplish a licensing test that's going to make you more valuable to yourself or to your employer maybe you want to take some kind of moment to just destroy everything in your office or in your bedroom or in your closet throw it all in a pile and set it up all brand new and then when you set it up all brand new now it's put together even better it's kind of like if you disassemble the factory and you rebuild it you're always going to rebuild it better and in a way that is more efficient I did this once before with accounting for example just to give you another example I found I was working with uh well I was more of a bookkeeper but I was working with a bookkeeper who just as much as I tried to motivate them and work with them and train them and and have my license CPA train them things just weren't working out so unfortunately we helped them move on and I decided I'm going to recreate the books for all of my businesses and I took I gave myself a two day break a Friday and a Saturday and I only got about 80 done by the end of those two days but I got the books on 16 hour days 80 done in two days so all of a sudden I took a break I set a goal to recreate the books and even though I didn't achieve the goal I had so much done within a very short period of time because I boxed myself into I'm gonna get done what I can in this break and my goal is to make a take a break Factory line shutdown creates some kind of upgrade we're gonna make a plan okay we're gonna do the books we're gonna find a licensing test to take we're gonna find a way to provide more value we're going to find a way to make ourselves more productive in our day and then we are going to implement and execute actually use that break that you're taking to get done your objectives because obviously if you take a one week workation to sort of fix up your factory line but then you just drink my ties every day and you don't actually get anything done well then you fail by default and that defeats the purpose so going back to what this original email inspired me to talk about how can you provide more value how can you get out of a rut well sometimes the best way to get out of a rut is just to shut it all down and as a result I'm personally going to take a brief shutdown period for my morning live streams ordinarily I like to do Market open live streams at around you know 420 to 5 20 in the morning and we'll do those for an hour to two hours then I go into the course member live streams I'm going to keep doing the course member live streams because that is a very important commitment that I'm always providing more value to my course members but I need to take a short break from the live streams just to update the factory lines so to speak so I as well am now going to take a brief break we're going to shut down the factory lines for a bit I'm going to process my list and start executing on my list to make sure I can provide more value to all of the things that I'm doing whether it's this YouTube channel or my ETF that I manage or my real estate startup or the other things that I have in the works these are all very exciting but for you I really want you to also be able to get excited about a break and again it's not like you're taking a break to go on vacation and do nothing it is an active break shut the factory down and then get to work to make it an even better Factory so you can provide more value to either your boss or the those around you and don't let that you owe me attitude take over the yomi attitude as we like to say is that attitude where you say well you know I'll work harder when I get paid more no that's backwards work harder first provide more Value First and you'll find that the more you give the more you end up getting so if you're stuck in a rut consider doing what successful people do shut the factory line down make a plan and execute on that plan and even if you only get half of the things done you're trying to execute at least you got more done than you would have had you not shut the factory down for an improvement period and then you can always look forward to the next shutdown so that way you're constantly thinking what's next and how am I going to elevate to the next level thanks for watching if you found this helpful consider sharing this with somebody that would be super receptive or needs to hear this information so consider hey who could use this who needs a factory shutdown in their life and send it over to them thanks so much for watching we'll see in the next one we'll see you again soonish once we finish the shutdown for the live streams thanks so much check out those coupons linked down below as well
