CFD 120 – Cashflow is more than just a game!
Anyone who knows about me also knows that I used Robert Kiyosaki's Cashflow 101 board game to build my business. It is probably the best networking tool I've found that brings likeminded individuals together. Black Friday is the anniversary of the first time my wife Popi and I played the game for the first time. That's why every year on Black Friday we host a game. Every year the number of people who participate grows. We are truly grateful that so many people are interested in learning the game and playing the game with us. This year we're doing it a little differently. Because I am so very thankful for everything that the game has brought into my life and the lives of my loved ones, I'm hosting a huge, live game in Orange County this Black Friday that officially starts at 11 a.m., PST, and goes for about three hours. But that's not all. We are LIVE STREAMING the event so no matter where you are in the world you can participate by learning how to run your own games! Just be there on time and that's it. Our chat room will be open for the entire event so you can ask questions and get them answered in real time. Be sure to sign up to receive the log in information and reminder. We don't want you to miss it. Listen in and learn how to sign up. Of course, this is not all that this episode covers. There's lots of things I'm grateful for and you'll want to hear more about my journey. There are some things I've never shared before. Learn more. Listen Now

- You need to learn how to produce a result rather than clocking in and clocking out.
- Work on developing the correct mindset required to keep persevering in the face of what is telling you to stop.
- Sometimes we learn to put our hope in the wrong things.
- Every business owner will eventually face running out of your own resources.
- U.C.K. – Labor Under Correct Knowledge
- Others will stick by you through the crazy stuff. However, you may think you have a good team, but you won’t know until they have been tested.
- You may think you can make it through anything, but you don’t know until you have been tested.
- Our pasts are often the tests. We can look back and instead of using it as the reason you can’t move forward, use it as the reason to move forward.
- Inspiration from Pursuit of Happiness: “Start before you are ready.”
- We often doubt and ask ourselves, ‘Is the chance that we’re taking worth it?’
- Take nothing for granted because it could all be gone tomorrow.
- There is someone today who will use what you do or don’t do as the reason why they can or can’t move forward. They are listening, they will learn from you, it is worth it.
- Most of the time we know what to do to take our business to the next level, we just haven’t done it.
The Process of Do:
- 1) Watch me do – the process where many people start
- 2) Do with me – begin to make it happen
- 3) Do alone – take the training wheels off
- 4) Teach another – influence others with what you know
