Why Not Take Care of Others AND You?

Dear Kindred Spirit:

How are you doing today?

That is the focus of today’s Why Not Huddle.

Today is a bit of a milestone. 20 straight weekdays we’ve now done the Why Not Huddle. It may sound small, but think about it. Try doing anything new and extra for twenty straight weekdays. It isn’t usually that achievable for folks.

BUT, it can be if you follow the approaches we’ve been sharing on the Why Not Huddles.

Thanks Taylor Gallo, my awesome and amazing Executive Assistant whose been getting up at the crack of dawn every day, transforming herself into a “morning person” (or maybe not!). In any case, Taylor, tremendous job!

Here’s to the next 1,000 episodes and early mornings!!

We are also going with a new format for our Why Not Huddles for the week. I want to focus on some key areas and give folks some weekly predictability for the Why Not Huddle.

Monday will be “Momentum Mondays”. We will focus on getting your week rolling and focusing on your goals, plans and acceleration within the process of exponential growth.

Tuesday we will talk about Time Mastery. Time is our precious element because of its finite nature. We will explore ways people can go from not having enough time to do anything, to having time do everything that is most meaningful and valuable. The misuse of time is one of the great inhibitors of our success.

Wednesday we become “Why Wednesdays.” Why, which we haven’t explored in depth, is the fuel, the energy behind our action and our results. It is what emotionally drives our behavior from the core.

Talk Thursdays will be all about the key skill set of our life: human communication. The power to, with integrity, influence, is what separates people in terms of success in relationships, sales, marketing, leadership and virtually anything you can think of.

Fridays are now Fun. On Fun Friday’s we will explore ways to inject fun, passion and adventure into all aspects of your work and play life. From discussing shark feed dives to virtually eliminating the difference between work and play, without fun, passion and adventure, what are we doing anyway? We will explore the most exotic to the simplest ways to find fun, passion and adventure.

Life is about progress in all areas. I’m excited about the new format. Let me know what you think?

Have a Why Not day!

Today’s Why Not Huddle with Sean Callagy:

Why Not Realize Defensiveness Destroys! 

Dear Kindred Spirits, Welcome to our third “Why Not” Friday, and your 16th episode of the Why Not Huddle.

How are you doing so far?

We are here to support you. Send any questions or comments to scallagy@callagylaw.com if you need a private response or post your questions for a response.

Yesterday, we were discussing a very common challenge for all of us: when it’s us, we don’t think we can “do” much more to change things to increase the quality of our results.

When last we spoke, our friend from yesterday was believing she was doing “everything”. I have heard this more times than you can imagine over the past twenty years. One of the great destroyers of success is people’s defensiveness.

Most often, their defensiveness is rooted in a feeling that somehow their success, whether it be financial, sales, business, career, or whatever, is directly connected to who they are and their value as a human being.

We had a great comment from Paul C. yesterday describing the amazing compounding of a penny over one month. Check it out on Callagy Law Facebook. It is this concept that most people cannot grasp, in my experience, when it comes to them.

When I speak with business people who have big goals, but are challenged to reach them, they want to hear new “tricks”. What people become defensive and resistant when we begin to discuss the very simple shifts available that can create enormous benefits. In the situation with my friend, a real life example, she felt very successful in negotiating a $15,000.00 per month billing contract. I thought she got completely taken advantage of and her fear got to her.

She didn’t like hearing that. I am completely confident that a fair arrangement would have yielded one to two million dollars per year. She really didn’t like hearing that. Moreover, I shared that she didn’t have enough products to cover her clients’ full needs, and therefore, was losing sales. I also believed her marketing process to get to meetings was very weak, and therefore, tons of opportunities were being missed. Her response was that I thought I was smarter than her, and did I know how much she’s accomplished.

My answer: I don’t care. Well, I do care, but not enough for me to lie to her and tell her something different than the truth. The truth is, a few tiny changes, and the company will go from a one million dollar to ten million dollar company in less than three years. She still didn’t like it.  Why? She was at affect.

She was also lacking the at cause ability to be completely self-aware and open to the turning of a couple of small screws to explode her business forward. After a few tears and some back and forth (that’s where my skills come in), we agreed to turn those screws. Here’s the challenge though: we all do this.

We all avoid the simple obstacles that will lead us to our results because we are often very emotionally committed to its meaning about us a smart, strong and competent person.

What? It goes like this: could a twenty dollar book or a free video really increase my income by thousands or even millions of dollars over time. Absolutely!!!!!!!!!! BUY, not if defensiveness and the need to prove how unique and impossibly unique your problems are. Let’s be open, self-aware and AT CAUSE! Have an amazing Friday and weekend.

Please share this, ask questions and post comments. We are over 11,000 Callagy Law Facebook Likes. Next stop: 50,000. Please help us get there. When we do, we are giving away a phenomenal gift worth over $1,000.00 to everyone.

NEW! FREE! PLEASE SHARE! Why Not Double Your Income Part II - How?!

Today’s Why Not Huddle with Sean Callagy

Why Not with Sean Callagy Episode 14 – November 11, 2015

Dear Kindred Spirits:

Good morning!!!!!

If you haven’t checked out our Why Not Talk Episode 2 with Rey Rostami, you will be missing a how to quadruple your sales appointments, along with a story to give you certainty on how to overcome huge challenges as Rey went from gang member to award winning sales man and trainer.

Yesterday, we discussed the idea of how you feel about doubling your income, and the practical impact of those thoughts and feelings on your income.

Some people felt teased by Why Not Huddle 13 as we didn’t discuss any “how to”.

Believe it or not, the “how to” is always far easier than remaining “At Cause” in “Zone Action”.

Okay, so, let’s get right to it.

If you are working for a salary, you have two choices:

1. Start a separate company on your own: or

2. Figure out how to add five to ten times the value you are currently creating for your company.

If you are a sales person or business owner, then you double your income by doubling your sales. This is far easier than most people think.

All sales increases are reverse engineered. It starts with doubling the number of your meetings. If you double the number of meetings, and increase your yes rate, or even simply maintain it, then if you work on commission, you will obviously have doubled your income.

So, if it’s that easy, WHY NOT follow that system? Well, we come right back to the reason the Why Not Huddle exists: to keep people “AT CAUSE IN ZONE ACTION”.

Most people simply don’t operate in Zone Action virtually at all. Simply changing this fact will change everything.

What is Zone Action in Sales?

1. Engaging in direct and controlled actions to create meetings; and

2. Engaging in direct and controlled actions to have clients say yes to your product or services that they need.

This doesn’t happen. Only the top small percentage of sales people who are following a Zone Action system and living At Cause do this.

AND, if they care to, are very capable of doubling their income.

Remember, I went from broke to a beach house in one year. This is how it works for everyone!

Please share this on your Facebook Timeline or on LinkedIn, along with today’s Why Not Video!

Today’s Why Not Huddle with Sean Callagy

Dear Kindred Spirits:

 

Before we get to this question, please check out our Why Not Talk with sales award winner Rey Rostami who’s used my Success Formula to triple meeting numbers for his team. There’s a challenge though… We are going to help Rey out! Join us on YouTube and subscribe. Hey, it’s got massive value, and it’s FREE. Anyone you know that is involved in sales has will benefit big time.

 

Now, suspend your belief for a moment, and simply answer this question: Would You Want to Double Your Income?

 

How does that question make you feel?

 

Does it make you excited? Does it make you stressed? Does it make you think I’m setting you up for something? Does it make you feel like there’s a scam on the way?

 

They idea of Why Not is to be the first indispensable building block of living “At Cause” (for a great explanation on that, check out Why Not Episode number 11 from November 6, 2015).

 

When we begin to discuss the idea and topic of money, it impacts people in ways that are directly related to our feelings about money. Our feelings about money relate to our beliefs about money.

 

What do you think about people who are RICH?

 

Describe how rich people act, feel, and relate to other people. What level of empathy and caring do “rich” people display?

 

I don’t mean tell me what you think is the “right” answer. I mean tell me what you really feel.

 

If your answer is positive, then I guarantee you that you either have or are on your way to having, more money than most people.

 

On the other hand, if you are answering that question in a negative way, then I would say that money and finances are a challenge in your life.

 

Now, before you feel judged, please keep in mind that I am trying to help. We will talk more about money in the future. This short letter is designed to help you think about the basics of where you are emotionally, right now, with regard to your relationship to money.

 

By the way, most, certainly mot all, but most people would like to double their income. What is amazing, is how relatively easy it is to do.

 

Now, I’ve possibly really touched a nerve. Money is one of the issues most attached to our egos. Thus, there may be a strong desire to make me “wrong” right now that you are feeling.

 

You’ve possibly heard me introduce the concept of “Zone Action” in prior Why Not Huddles. After having spent time coaching hundreds of different people, I’ve found that very few people ever get near Zone Action to increase their income or the profit from their business.

 

I am fortunate to earn a great living. Within one year, if I so choose and follow my own success formula, I would certainly double my income. I know this with absolute certainty. The only way I wouldn’t, is if I wasn’t in Zone Action.

 

The challenge is, most people never get into Zone Action to double their income because they don’t have the right emotional relationship with money.

 

So, for today, think about what you really feel. Then, ask if those feelings are serving you and your finances.

 

On a final note: don’t think you can set the value for double your salary. That is a major move. It is set by the value you create for others, either your company or your clients if you own a business.

 

Then, be ready to truly live a Why Not life and commit to playing a huge game to get there.

 

By the way, I helped one client go from making $150,000.00 per year to $500,000.00 per year in 1, yes ONE, coaching session. That income level lasted for nearly a decade from one of his businesses.

 

And no, I am not actively taking on coaching clients right now. I’m telling you that to help you to understand that I know what I am talking about and how real your potential is.

Why Not #8 - Why Not Form Life"s Most Valuable Habit? November 2, 2015

Why Not #6 – Why Not Say Goodbye to Motivation? October 29, 2015

Why Not Say Goodbye To Motivation? And Hello To Something Infinitely More Powerful?

I had a game changing meeting with a friend of mine, Rey Rostami, the New Jersey Training Coordinator for AFLAC, yesterday. Rey has a tremendous life story, rising above some very challenging childhood years on the inner city streets of Los Angeles, to becoming a commission sales person for AFLAC, to becoming an award winner and leader, to now being the head of training for AFLAC, New Jersey.

Rey also uses a significant amount of my training principles for himself and his AFLAC trainees. So, when I asked Rey what he thought of our “Why No Huddle”, I was shocked to hear his answer.

Rey hesitated and looked uncomfortable as I waited to hear his thoughts. Finally, he said, “I haven’t seen it. In fact, I’m embarrassed to say that I didn’t even know it started yet.”

I actually felt a lot of excitement when Rey told me this. Our Callagy Law Facebook has already grown by 700 “likes” in just a few days. Now, I completely understand that out of our 10,000 “likes,” still only a fraction of the 10,000 has even seen the posts about “Why Not”. As more people see it, which we ask everyone’s help with changing that, we will watch the numbers grow like crazy. I’ll explain in a moment why that’s a good thing for everyone.

Something far more amazing happened though in the next stage of our conversation. Rey became very excited about the idea of his sales people having the ability to watch the “Why Not Huddle” everyday for motivation. He explained the obvious fact that sales is full of frustration and how important “motivational videos” are.

This is where our breakthrough moment occurred. After the next 10 minutes of our conversation, Rey was more blown away and excited than I’ve ever seen him.

I asked Rey to now explain what I had just shared with him as though he was speaking with sales people at AFLAC to help them understand how critical, unique and valuable the “Why Not Huddle” is for them.

Rey summarized our conversation as follows: “Motivation is for people who are ‘At Effect’. It means that you are riding external stimuli to move you.

The consequence of this is that if you receive negative stimuli, you are equally susceptible to stop acting. The key is to stay ‘At Cause,” which is the opposite of ‘At Effect’ and means that you are in control, through an entirely different philosophy, of your feelings, thoughts and actions. The value of ‘Why Not’ isn’t to motivate, is to keep you ‘At Cause’, which is so much more valuable it’s incredible.”

“Precisely my friend”, I shared with him. Rey added, “My entire philosophy of training and producing results has shifted in the last 10 minutes.” Rey also added some incredibly complimentary words for me, which I will leave out.

What??????!!!!!!!!! Yes, motivation is weak. Motivation is fleeting. When people call me a motivational speaker it bothers me.

During our conversation, Rey helped me clarify my burning “why”, or my drive, for doing all of this. I want to help people at an unprecedented level to improve the mental and emotional quality of their lives. I believe that it is so easy to lead a life of more passion, positive energy and results than most people do. This is why I do this.

Here is the key of all of this though: the “Why Not Huddle” is NOT about motivation!!!!!!! It is about changing your life philosophy so you don’t need external motivation. External motivation can be nice and fun, but it is fleeting and ineffective. It is like going from a car that has a one gallon gas tank, a person relying on motivation, to an oxygen powered car that is perfectly self sustaining as oxygen is everywhere, which is the equivalent of having a life philosophy of being “At Cause”.

We will talk more about this on today’s “Why Not Huddle” and tomorrow’s article. For today though, please try and get this into your heart, soul and

brain: you are the only person or thing that can make you feel how you feel.

Remember, your feelings control your thoughts, your thoughts control your actions, your actions give you your results and your results create your destiny. Thus, the difference between living in motivation versus living “At Cause” is a completely different destiny.

Please, please, please, read tomorrow’s article as we will explain this enormous distinction. For today, understand that living “At Cause” is about you being in charge of how you feel, think, act and produce results minute to minute, day to day, week to week, month to month and year to year. The “Why Not Huddle” will help you achieve this level of mastery of your life and yourself AND it will be FUN!

This applies for peak athletes, business owners, sales people, stay at home moms and dads, teachers, lawyers, accountants, politicians, celebrities or whatever. The “why” behind “Why Not” is to make your life better and the world a better place through leaving behind negative emotional reactions, thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

AND just so this doesn’t sound like I’m suggesting we become weird robots, let me illustrate a point I made to Rey about the importance of feeling even sad feelings versus having those feelings produce negative outcomes. I used my grandfather, who passed away in 1999, as an example.

I miss my grandfather very much. I loved him with all my heart, and he was amazing as a source of support, love and teaching for me. He was incredibly positive when it came to him telling me who I am and how great I could be.

“When I think of him”, I explained to Rey, “I feel certain and confident, and I want to live an amazing life of balance, fulfillment, giving and success in tribute to all that he was and all that he taught me.”

This is a simple example of feeling very real feelings of missing my grandfather, but having those feelings serve my life as opposed to depress me because my beloved grandfather isn’t here anymore. All of that is a choice with tools to help make that choice a reality, all of which we will cover over time on our “Why Not Huddle”.

As we begin to touch on these topics, you may start to feel a bit challenged or even irritated by these concepts, or me. A natural human response is:

“you don’t know my problems. Mine are worse. This wouldn’t work for me!” All I can say is, yes, many people suffer from horrible challenges and trauma.

I’m sure some people exist that need some additional help. I simply believe that way more people can be masters of their own destiny that most people believe.

AND, I will close with this: medical science says I’m going blind from a hereditary eye disease that my beloved grandfather had and was blind from.

I’ve stopped driving and watching TV has become incredibly difficult as I pretty much see double, plus have huge contrast problems and blind spots. I need help telling me what’s happening on the TV screen pretty often if I watch a show like my favorite, “Walking Dead”. Yet, I have zero fear. I don’t feel fear and get rid of it. I don’t feel it in the first place. I have absolute certainty that I will be cured AND before I am, I will cope and adapt perfectly and enjoy additional advantages from my disease. One of those advantages is keeping me “At Cause” at an accelerated rate to take advantage of the vision I have.

So, while many people have worse disability challenges than I do, 95 percent of the population DOES NOT. Thus, I can speak from a place of absolute certainty when I tell you that you, with whatever challenges you have, can live an amazing life of being “At Cause” and enjoying life’s wonder, beauty, amazement, abundance, joy and passion.

Carpe Diem and enjoy your day “At Cause”!!!!!!!!

Why Not #6 – Why Not Say Goodbye to Motivation? October 29, 2015

Why Not #5 - Learn The Secret of Small WHY NOT?! October 28, 2015

Good Morning to you and Happy Wednesday!!!!!!!!

How did the Mets do in Game 1 of the World Series?!?!?!?! Did the Dark Knight Rise?!

For some thoughts, watch today’s Why Not Video discussing the Mets AND our Challenge!

For today, let’s focus on the “Secrets of Small”.

The basic premise of Why Not, is to say yes instead of no, where you should.

To act, instead of not act, where you should. To do what is going to support your happiest and most fulfilled life as opposed to doing the opposite, or nothing at all.

I believe that we are born happy and outside conditions and forces change that. Do I believe people have biological issues that impact happiness, absolutely!

However, I believe that for the vast majority of the population, there is a science and process that will lead to our success and fulfillment.

The goal of Why Not is to support you in this endeavor in a world full of negativity, cynicism and obstacles to our best life and version of us.

For today, let’s look at the power of small. My favorite word to discuss small is “distinctions”. Distinctions are small differences. Our success and failure is decided in very small differences.

The challenge for us though, is we make the differences feel and seem BIG.

This impacts us emotionally, so we don’t take action.

Remember the truth about our ultimate dream destiny: it flows from our daily results, which flow from our daily actions, which flow from our daily thoughts, which flow from our daily feelings. Thus, one terribly important tiny distinction is to know that reality and to remember it!

Let’s take a very simple story to show the power of distinctions and how it impacts our results.

In 1987, 28 years ago, I had a conversation with my mom’s friend Joan. I told Joan that I would always maintain a size 32 waist. Joan told me that her husband believed the same thing, that he exercised and took great care of himself, but it was impossible to do.

I didn’t like the idea of being told I couldn’t do something, especially when it was as simple as maintaining a size 32 waist.

I bet her 100 dollars that I could still have a size 32 waist on my 30th birthday. Well, I’m now 45 years old, and guess what? I still have a size 32 waist.

Well, that must mean I do A LOT to keep it that way. I must really be on a major diet and crazy work out routine. WRONG!!!!!

Here is my magic weight maintenance formula: 1. I weigh myself every day: 2.

I eat 3 meals a day, and I have substantial amounts of ice cream a couple of time per week: 3. I lift weights, do abs and run, and I love it!!!!!!!

If I see my weight creep up, I don’t have any sugar drinks, I don’t have dessert for a few days, and I make sure I don’t miss doing cardio.

If my calf bothers me, which it does at times when I run, then I shift to following an indoor cardio 45 minute work out that I learned from buying a Tae Bo video.

Tiny, small, simple distinctions. The key distinction within the distinction, is that I have a process I follow, with simple contingencies, that allows me to maintain my results.

BUT, I recently had a BIG problem. I was at my friends home in Arizona. I hadn’t weighed myself in about 3 months because my vision had worsened to the point that I couldn’t see the numbers on the scale anymore (I have a hereditary eye disease that medical science says will cause me to go completely blind-i say differently, but that’s a story for another day).

SO, I stopped weighing myself.

My friend said I looked heavier. I told him no way that I always knew how much I weighed. He challenged me to get on the scale. When I did, sure enough, I was 15 pounds heavier.

How did this happen? One distinction, and a very small one at that: I had stopped weighing myself.

Now I had a BIG problem, right? Nope. I needed to make a “small shift”. I needed to begin weighing myself daily again and flow my process.

In a month, without completely eliminating desert, I had lost 15 pounds and returned to a size 32 waist. No pain, no stress, no overwhelm and very simply got the results I wanted.

Another crucial tiny distinction is the distinction of managing ourselves.

Too often people believe that managing ourselves is a BIG process. It is not. Success also doesn’t require major disciple. Instead, it requires some very simple beliefs.

One of the simple, small beliefs success requires is this: my results are within my control, AND I am confident and powerful enough to produce all of the results I want for a happy and fulfilled life.

The distinction within this distinction is that how we interpret information is critical. If you receive negative feedback, people mock your goals or dreams or your not hitting your interim goals, do you make BIG changes?!?

NO! You stay the course and make SMALL changes.

The amazing book the Millionaire Next Store discusses the idea that as of about 10 years ago, the vast majority of American millionaires had never made more than $100,000.00 in income in a single year of their lives. How the heck did they do it? Small distinctions in savings and using the power of compounding was the answer.

I’ve touched on a lot of topic answers so far today, BUT do not be overwhelmed, as they were only illustrations. The sole point for today is

this: if you want to be in great shape, become a millionaire, have amazing confidence, obtain a college scholarship, buy a beach house, retire at a younger age, have the greatest marriage in the world, master sales or public speaking, the result lies in mastering the power of small distinctions.

We all are on an endless journey of growth and development. There are unavoidable and very specific rules to that process though. One of them is small distinctions and another is loving the process of growth itself.

Look for those two things today, e-mail me your thoughts, questions about this Why Not video, which will elaborate on this topic of the Secrets of Small!
