The Dream Chaser Show
One of my personal definitions of money is - the measurement of value created. When I think of money this way it inspires me to create my own worth instead of looking for someone to give me anything. Using this perspective I'm more inspired to get into action and make things happen. It gives me energy knowing that I'm creating as a contributor to the "machine". On the other hand when I'm looking for people to give me anything it drains my energy, it doesn't empower me. When it come come to creating value my guest today is a master. I read his book a couple of...

Context: There are a lot of changes taking place in the economy right now and it's happening very quickly. The job market is shrinking and the newer jobs that are becoming available are paying less. As an entrepreneur this is great news because change creates problems and entrepreneurship is all about solving problems. As you know one of the fields that I'm really enthusiastic about is business consulting. I like it for a number of reasons but here's just a few... The overhead needed to start a consulting practice is minimal You don't need any advanced degrees or certifications The more...

I attended a marketing event called Monetization Mastery almost a year and a half ago down in Miami... I always tell people if you want to change your belief system around money and what's really possible then go to an internet marketing event. When you're surrounded by people who are on the internet making thousands of dollars (and some even tens of thousands) per day it has a way of shifting the way you think about business. I've also discovered one of the truths about building a businesses online... if you want to make some money then you do it alone. But if you want to build wealth then...

One of the things that I love about entrepreneurship is it's the closest thing that you can get to being a professional athlete. You'll get direct feedback on whether you can really play or if you stink... but no matter what the market says about you, there's always room to improve and get better. Here's the cold truth... The job market is shrinking, with technology replacing human labor and capital funding becoming more and more scarce since the 2008 meltdown business owners and CEO's are more focused on costs and the bottom line more than ever. The highest cost savings can usually be found...

Have you ever met someone who said that they couldn't use a little more confidence? Nah, me either. Confidence is one of those qualities that most people would like to have a little more of. On today's episode I'll be talking about the secrets to developing bullet proof confidence with Social Confidence coach and author Myke Macapinlac. Myke is the creator of . I think this is something this is a subject that everybody should study at some point, especially if you wanna be an entrepreneur. As an entrepreneur you gotta be skilled in selling ideas. In order to sell ideas you have to have an...

One of the things that I've always made an effort to be is someone that can lose everything and then turn around and get it all back. I say that because I believe that a truly wealthy man isn't wealthy because of his money or the value of his possessions. He's wealthy because of who he is. My guest today is one of those people. At his lowest point Tony found himself homeless with nothing to his name. It was also during this time that Tony began what he calls "His Great Experiment". With nothing left to lose he also lost his sense of fear. With time he slowly began to see the great...

I recently became interested in the study of Etymology, which in case you're not familiar is the study of the origins of words. When you truly understand the essence of a word, where it comes from and its true meaning you’re able to better apply the concept of the word to your studies and your life. Conversely one idea and concept that is probably more misunderstood than any other is the concept of money. Interestingly enough most of us dedicate most of our lives to making money for ourselves and our families but we never truly understand what it is or how its really created. As a result we...

Leonardo DiCaprio is one of my all time favorite actors. A while back he played a character named "Cobb" in the movie . If you've never seen it check it out, it was a pretty heavy movie. It's one of those movies that makes you think about what you're thinking about. In the movie Cobb was stealing corporate secrets and planting ideas by entering a "target's" dream. Being able to steal secrets was good but the real power was being able to plant an idea that would cause his "target" to take a set of desired actions. Pretty cool, right? Well believe or not my guest today, Rob Scott has a process...

I believe the true essence of entrepreneurship is having the ability to recognize an opportunity. An opportunity to take a product or situation of lower value. Enhance it. And then turn around and offer it back to the world at a higher value. This process of alchemy can be applied to anything; real estate, cars, clothing, services and what you'll learn in conversation today is that it can even be done with your story. My guest today is Anthony Trucks, Anthony became an entrepreneur against his will at the age of 3 years old, when he was placed into foster care by his mother. The statistics say...
info_outlineAbout 2 weeks ago I was surfing around online..
I came across an episode of Young Hustlers where
they were interviewing internet personal branding pioneer
Dre Baldwin aka "Dre All Day"…
It was cool to see Dre on the Grant Cardone
Network, he was one of the first brothers
that I saw using the internet to create a personal brand online,
taking youtube to the next level and basically creating his own
TV "show".
I remember watching his motivation videos back in like 2009,
I can even say that he was one of the people
that inspired me to create The Dream Chaser Show.
So as I was sitting there watching the interview, in
the back of my mind I thought to myself how he had
put himself on that stage and created that opportunity on his own...
Without any special connections, luck or family "hook-ups".
He made it happen with good old fashion work and discipline, reaping
the rewards that come from making a decision and stinking with it.
How many people have you seen stick with something for
9 years (outside of going to a job everyday)?
Not many I'm sure, most people give up once they see that
nobody cares, and that's the reason nobody cares...lol (think about it).
For those of you who aren’t familiar with Dre’s story, in 2006
he uploaded a highlight video from a basketball
workout to a new video site called youtube (it was new at the time).
He was using the video to get the attention of pro basketball
talent scouts that he was interested in trying out for.
After posting the video and forgetting about it, he came back to
it several months later to find that people
he didn't know had been watching it and were even asking
him questions.
Fast forward to today, since uploading his first video to
youtube almost 10 years ago Dre
has upload more than 4500 videos online that have been
viewed over 30 million times.
What’s even more impressive is that he hasn’t missed a
day of doing a video in over 2000 days (that’s over 5 years
for those of you trying to figure out the math).
Pretty impressive, right?
Quick question….how much could you accomplish in your life if you
committed to putting in work everyday without fail?
What you’ll learn in this interview is that success in anything
is 80% about the level of
commitment that you have to following a process.
Put all of your attention on following a process instead of
getting a result and you're on to something.
Most people get this backwards, the wait to
follow the process after
they get the results that they're looking for...
Obviously they rarely see the results.
After listening to this conversation with Dre you're going to walk away with
a better understanding of what it takes to win and how you need to think
in order to achieve the highest results…
Some things that we discussed during this interview…
- How he changed himself from a player with no talent into one of the best
- How he keeps himself motivated and focused on his goals
- Why most people won't commit to a long term process
- The most important talent that you must possess as an entrepreneur
- The technique that he uses to trigger the subconscious to help him address challenges
- What he does everyday at the start and end of his day
- The difference between having a vision and a dream
- How to build confidence and belief in yourself
Live Big, Dream Big
