0:52
know you’ve you know you’ve been in the
0:53
business for a while so do you only do
0:55
single family are you you’ve been doing
0:57
some other stuff too uh so we’ve
0:59
primarily done single family I’ve never
1:01
done any commercial we’ve done some
1:02
condo conversions
1:04
um so that’s about and we’ve done we
1:05
were about to build the house and the
1:07
construction cost went through the roof
1:08
so we’re bailing on that so no we focus
1:11
on on single families for the last 20
1:13
years
1:14
bro you know what that you just kind of
1:16
brought up is like you’re you’re focused
1:18
bro you’re you’re locked in on the the
1:20
single family and I love that that’s
1:22
awesome
1:23
um now you don’t just wholesale though
1:25
right You Fix and Flip yeah so last year
1:27
we we wholesaled in Fix and Flip 256
1:30
houses and fortunately um I’m in a
1:32
position where I only work an hour a
1:34
week in that business
1:36
man so you’re like hey I don’t even know
1:38
what’s going on you know what’s going on
1:40
but you know what’s going on yeah that’s
1:43
amazing well look Brad let’s kind of
1:45
talk about that self-belief and you know
1:47
where you’re at right now and what kind
1:48
of got you to this place because I think
1:50
a lot of people that will watch this
1:51
will will take a lot from you about you
1:53
know how you got your start what you’re
1:55
up to now and you know what they can
1:57
take from that in their own and apply it
1:58
in their own lives yeah yeah
2:00
um where to start wow um let’s go back
2:02
to ninth grade when I read a book with
2:03
uh how to buy real estate with no money
2:05
down got into real estate
2:07
um thought because I liked real estate
2:09
but I didn’t really care about real
2:11
estate now that I look back on it it was
2:13
all to make a bunch of money because I
2:15
didn’t feel worthy and I thought oh
2:17
making a bunch of money will bring me
2:18
worthiness and happiness and it doesn’t
2:20
guys so Nathan’s amazing at what he does
2:23
like he’ll coach you and he can teach
2:24
you how to make millions of dollars a
2:26
year
2:27
um but you can have a million dollars a
2:28
year or make a million dollars a year
2:30
and not be happy and so many people want
2:31
to fight me on that but just look at all
2:33
the people who’s taken their lives in
2:34
the last five ten years that had so much
2:36
money right so
2:38
um two years ago trying to get my son
2:40
help for anxiety I came across a
2:42
performance coach that said hey you may
2:43
have some childhood issues and I was
2:45
like okay I’ll come out and work with
2:47
you and I did and and from that point on
2:49
my life profoundly changed and I really
2:52
feel like I’ve I’ve got the secret to
2:55
life now so I help people I coach people
2:57
and obviously the purpose of this talk
2:59
today is to talk about self-belief
3:01
because I know that you have students
3:04
right now that aren’t succeeding not
3:05
because you don’t provide an amazing
3:07
instruction because I know you do and
3:09
your heart is as big if not bigger than
3:12
anyone out there in terms of wanting to
3:14
help your clients but why can’t some
3:16
succeed why do some succeed and not
3:18
others with the same exact material and
3:21
I’m going to challenge you to something
3:22
different it’s not typical mindset I’m
3:25
not going to tell you like a lot of
3:27
other gurus or you know I love him Zig
3:29
Ziglar Prime Napoleon prime the pump to
3:32
go and look in the mirror and tell
3:33
yourself you can make this call you can
3:35
make this call you can make this call
3:36
because you’ve got to figure out if you
3:40
want to change Behavior you’ve got to
3:43
figure out what is driving that behavior
3:45
in the first place and this is where
3:47
you’re you’re going to be blown away
3:48
that behavior isn’t from a year ago it
3:51
wasn’t it wasn’t created a year ago it
3:53
was created somewhere between when you
3:55
were born in 10 years something happened
3:58
to all of us that we were made fun of
4:01
our parents didn’t care for us they
4:02
abused whatever it was you went through
4:04
some stressful situation in your life
4:06
that caused you to come up with a belief
4:08
in your mind to get you through that
4:09
stressful situation so your brain did
4:11
its job
4:12
I got hit with a belt I’m six years old
4:15
oh I’m bad so and then I lived with that
4:18
same thought for 47 years buried in my
4:21
subconscious mind it drove me to do all
4:22
this negative behavior I never knew what
4:24
it was so I’m talking a lot but that’s
4:27
no this is great real important stuff
4:29
here if you want to succeed in business
4:31
and life you’ve got to figure out what’s
4:33
holding you back and I can promise you
4:36
that what’s holding you back is likely
4:38
uh connected somehow to your childhood
4:41
in the situations that you live through
4:43
that were not your fault and they’re not
4:45
your fault now but once you have
4:47
awareness they are your fault and you’ve
4:49
got to start doing the work uh all
4:51
change begins with awareness you got to
4:52
figure it out and then change can happen
4:55
so we talked about in the beginning
4:57
about like self-belief and that’s what
4:58
you’re kind of referring to right is
5:00
like those things are holding you back
5:01
from would you say believing in yourself
5:03
is that right yeah but here’s the thing
5:06
here here’s here’s where life gets so
5:09
interesting and tricky for 47 years I
5:12
didn’t wake up Nathan and say I don’t
5:14
believe in Brad I gave just the opposite
5:17
Persona if you’d have asked me did I
5:19
have self-love and I’ve been like yeah I
5:21
got self-love how’s your self-esteem
5:22
Brad oh it’s really high Brad do you
5:24
care about what other people think about
5:26
you Nathan hell no guess what all three
5:28
of those were lies that I was telling
5:30
myself deep down inside myself belief
5:33
was you don’t you don’t deserve this
5:35
wealth you’re not good enough you’re
5:37
gonna f it up and I did I made five
5:39
business mistakes it cost me nine
5:41
million dollars trying to prove my worth
5:43
so why am I telling you all this
5:46
you can’t just wake up and be like
5:48
what’s my belief because you may not
5:50
know your belief your belief could be
5:52
buried in your subconscious mind next
5:54
question well how do you figure it out
5:55
there are different ways I think the
5:57
best way in the world is hypnosis so I
5:59
went out and got trained in hypnotherapy
6:01
so that I can put you in a relaxed State
6:03
and and your brain will go right back to
6:06
the three or four scenes in your
6:07
childhood oh this is what’s causing me
6:10
my lack of belief this is why I don’t
6:12
believe in myself so that we can rewire
6:13
that belief so that you can change your
6:15
thinking and change your behavior and
6:17
then succeed on a financial level
6:19
yeah that is that’s amazing because
6:21
honestly I I not a lot of people know
6:24
about this so I’m I’m assuming
6:26
bradshandler.com is where they go right
6:28
where they if they want to dive in and
6:29
learn more about dive into their you
6:31
know their past yep so all change begins
6:34
with awareness right I’ve said that a
6:35
couple of times you’ve got to see be
6:37
aware what is your self-esteem like how
6:40
do you feel about yourself so I created
6:42
this tuna it takes two and a half
6:43
minutes to take it’s a self-love quiz
6:45
it’s free go to bradchandler.com forward
6:48
slash quiz take the quiz if you score
6:51
lack of self-love or mild self-love I
6:54
promise you that every area of your life
6:56
is is negatively affected to some degree
6:59
or another so from that don’t take his
7:01
oh whoa as me if I don’t have extreme
7:03
self-love just the opposite be like oh
7:06
my gosh my life is about to Blossom if I
7:08
do the work and figure out these beliefs
7:11
that are controlling me from childhood
7:13
that I don’t even know exist why do I
7:16
come home and fight with my spouse why
7:17
do I drink three glasses of wine why am
7:19
I I pissed off when I’m driving to work
7:21
every day well you don’t know why
7:24
because your subconscious drives 95 of
7:27
your daily Behavior
7:30
that’s that’s a that’s a was
7:32
I got I’m speechless man that’s a lot of
7:34
info
7:36
and that’s a lot of stuff I think people
7:37
don’t know right they’re not aware no
7:39
one really teaches you that no one
7:41
teaches you people tell you to go to
7:43
traditional therapy you show up every
7:45
Tuesday morning at 11 A.M and you talk
7:47
about your symptoms and your conscious
7:49
mind well that’s why it’s so hard to fix
7:51
things until you get into the
7:53
subconscious mind that actually drives
7:54
your behavior it’s really hard to change
7:56
things
7:57
so Brad let me ask you a question do you
7:59
feel like for the people that are
8:00
watching this the audience uh you know
8:02
the bachelor’s Nation do you feel like
8:04
in addressing these things can help them
8:06
better become uh Real Estate Investors
8:09
oh oh without a doubt so so number one
8:11
you want to figure out like why are you
8:12
in business in first place are you like
8:14
me are you in real estate to make a
8:16
bunch of money or is it really your
8:17
passion
8:18
the quicker you find out what your
8:19
passion is the more the the more success
8:22
you’re going to have because
8:24
I am so passionate about what I do I I
8:27
liked real estate and I would read
8:28
occasional real estate books but I could
8:30
never sit down for eight hours and read
8:32
a real estate book I can sit down on the
8:34
beach for eight hours for three weeks at
8:36
a time I’ve never done it but I know I
8:37
could and I’ve enjoyed reading books on
8:39
psychology in the mind so absolutely
8:41
number two is you got to figure out a
8:44
lot of entrepreneurs start businesses
8:45
because they lack control in their early
8:47
life and they think that they’re going
8:49
to gain control as an entrepreneur you
8:51
don’t really control anything in life
8:52
except your thoughts that’s it you get
8:55
control by giving up control in your
8:57
life so yes to answer your question if
8:59
you do the work it’s not going to only
9:01
make you better in business because
9:03
what’s happened over these last two
9:05
years Nathan is I’ve shifted from trying
9:07
to make a bunch of money to prove my
9:09
worth to making an impact so every day I
9:12
wake up and I’m like how can I make a
9:14
greater impact on my clients and my
9:15
community and I’m early I’ve only been
9:17
in a year in this but I think if five
9:19
years from now and on this podcast and
9:21
you asked me how are you doing
9:22
financially I bet you I make more money
9:24
from this Venture than I do in real
9:26
estate because you can’t stop me in
9:28
terms of my passion and purpose in in
9:30
knowledge that I just can’t get enough
9:31
so I’m just going to keep getting better
9:33
and better and better at what I do you
9:35
know what I’ve seen a lot of people like
9:36
you’re saying they use real estate as
9:38
their printing press or their business
9:40
to uh I guess use more of their time
9:42
towards what they’re passionate so you
9:43
don’t I don’t think you necessarily need
9:45
to be passionate about real estate in
9:47
order to do it right true ideas yeah for
9:51
17 years for 17 years I wasn’t I made
9:53
millions of dollars and now I am using
9:55
it from my vehicle to do to affect
9:58
change in the world so absolutely so
10:00
yeah you don’t have to be passionate
10:01
about it you can be really really smart
10:03
follow what Nathan says because he’s
10:05
really really good do what he says and
10:08
and yeah you’ll find as you do this work
10:11
you will figure out why you’re put here
10:13
and then look I’ve set up a business
10:16
that runs without me I had a 970 on my
10:20
SATs there’s nothing special about me
10:23
Nathan’s got everything you need to set
10:25
up your business to run so
10:28
um yeah go have at it well yeah no I
10:31
appreciate you saying that Brad so for
10:33
everybody watching this and that’s going
10:34
to watch it in the future it’s like I
10:36
think it’s important for you to dive in
10:38
and and realize and self-assess like
10:40
you’re saying like hey your your
10:42
self-belief like you know any address
10:44
those issues like you’re saying take
10:46
Brad Chandler’s uh is it called the love
10:47
quiz at bradshaw.com yep
10:50
yeah take that and really dive in and
10:52
see where you know your why like why are
10:54
you doing this and what’s driving you
10:56
because I’ve done that as well and I
10:57
think it’s very powerful to wake up
10:59
every day with a purpose knowing where
11:01
you’re you’re trying to go uh because
11:03
you know maybe that call that phone is a
11:05
little heavy when you guys start making
11:06
dials but if you know that’s attached to
11:07
your why what you’re trying to achieve
11:09
your passion gets a little easier
11:12
yeah you asked me with their business
11:14
improve if they did the work and yeah my
11:17
answer was yes but guess what else will
11:18
improve your health your mental health
11:21
your relationship with your spouse or
11:23
your significant other your relationship
11:25
with your kids
11:26
if you have issues in your relationships
11:29
it’s never about the actual relationship
11:31
the problem in relationships always is
11:33
is the relationship each individual has
11:35
with themselves if you have children and
11:37
they have behavioral issues
11:39
you’ve got to look in the mirror because
11:41
it’s the parents that cause the
11:43
behavioral issues in the kids 9.5 out of
11:46
10 times so when you do this work and
11:48
you become self-aware and you stop these
11:50
self-belief these destructive self
11:53
beliefs that are that are eating at you
11:55
like everything good in your life will
11:57
change I had a podcast guest who was a
11:59
former client yesterday and he came to
12:01
me saying he just wanted to turn down
12:03
his negativity talk three notches this
12:06
was six months ago we finished he
12:08
literally hasn’t had one negative
12:09
thought about himself in six months
12:10
negative thoughts are destructive if you
12:13
talk negatively to yourself on a regular
12:15
basis that is a one of the signs of lack
12:18
of self-love it’s not doing you any good
12:20
I promise you if you think it’s
12:21
motivating you it’s not and if you’re
12:23
talking negative to yourself in front of
12:24
your kids what are you teaching your
12:26
kids right
12:28
amazing yeah so I actually I’ll tell you
12:30
a little bit about because I’ve actually
12:32
noticed that a lot um I’m I’m uh like a
12:35
youth leader at my church and um one of
12:37
the kids that’s younger he like always
12:39
like says negative things and it’s like
12:42
where did he learn that and I’m not like
12:44
saying anything about his parents but
12:46
that’s where they learn it like and it’s
12:48
like for me being a positive person like
12:50
whenever he says something negative
12:51
immediately like my heart stinks you
12:53
know it drops I’m like man that doesn’t
12:54
feel good like he’s talking like for
12:57
example I’ll get this is stupid but this
12:58
is what it means like one kid’s like oh
13:00
I went and saw the Indiana Jones movie
13:01
it was great and then he’s like oh that
13:03
movie sucks that movie’s terrible and
13:06
I’m like have you seen the movie and
13:08
he’s like no I haven’t seen it yet but I
13:09
know it stinks so it’s like that
13:11
negative thought like it’s already
13:13
negative about something he doesn’t know
13:14
about so I was I was like as a you know
13:17
I would say
13:18
um as a wiser person I would say I was
13:19
like hey man if you don’t know something
13:21
you shouldn’t judge it yet uh you know
13:23
you should give it a shot you you know
13:24
don’t be so negative and he was cool
13:26
about it but it’s it’s crazy like even
13:28
things like that when you’re young that
13:30
can’t affect you and like all um aspects
13:34
of your life if you’re negative like
13:35
that
13:36
yeah it’s um uh obviously he’s hurting I
13:39
mean his parents if his parents are
13:40
negative that shows you that they likely
13:42
have a lack of self-love and that he’s
13:44
probably not getting what he needs so
13:45
just try to have as much compassion for
13:47
him as you can and you know like I
13:49
always say it’s just love just pour out
13:50
the love to him make sure he knows he’s
13:52
loved and you know God loves him yeah
13:55
and you never know what’s going on at
13:57
home but I think the if anything like
13:59
that happens if you guys are talking to
14:00
uh an invest like a another wholesaler
14:03
and they’re just saying oh man they’re
14:05
going negative all the time like it’s
14:06
okay to address things and be honest
14:08
with what’s going on in real life but be
14:10
approach it from you know uh I guess a
14:12
perspective of uh I call it an eternal
14:15
perspective like looking at it from the
14:16
brighter side looking at it
14:18
um instead of just like complaining yeah
14:20
a lot of people are hurting and if you
14:22
can see them for you know see them for
14:24
who they are and not judge them it makes
14:26
life a lot better
14:27
100 well hey Brad awesome having you on
14:31
here and I just want everyone to know
14:32
like the reason why we talk about these
14:34
things are a little deeper is because
14:35
being an investor you know anyone can
14:38
make a phone call anyone can do that but
14:40
a lot of like your heart your light
14:41
shines through that phone a lot of
14:43
people when I talk to someone on the
14:45
phone I can immediately feel their
14:46
energy I can really feel if they’re
14:47
happy or they’re sad and that’s like
14:50
when I call people sometimes like I can
14:52
just tell they’re like oh this guy’s
14:54
happy right like Brad you know what I’m
14:56
talking about that energy is real yeah I
14:58
mean look let’s get back to impact like
15:00
just always look for impact when you go
15:02
meet with a seller you talk to the
15:03
seller if they’ve got a problem that you
15:05
can help with if it’s an elderly lady
15:07
and it’s 90 degrees in her house and she
15:09
doesn’t have money to go buy an air
15:10
conditioner and you’re about to make a
15:12
ten thousand dollar spread or 15 or 20
15:13
whatever it is go freaking buy just
15:15
imagine driving a Home Depot and putting
15:17
an air conditioned in her do you know do
15:19
you know how far that’s going to go
15:20
number one you’re doing the right thing
15:22
and you’re giving back to to the world
15:23
but number two how many people do you
15:25
think she’s gonna tell that you know Amy
15:27
me home buyer came over and and put an
15:30
air conditioning unit for free or you
15:31
know she needs a ride to the doctor or
15:33
she doesn’t have the proper Insurance
15:34
whatever it is like just always look to
15:37
make an impact and it will always come
15:39
back to you so Brad let me ask you this
15:41
because this is some a question I have
15:42
so when you’re on the ground level like
15:44
me I’m still like in the business
15:45
working in the business on the business
15:47
I have the opportunity to see
15:49
opportunities to impact more for myself
15:52
but when you’re out you say you work
15:54
maybe an hour a week or so how how do
15:57
you know that your employees and
15:59
everyone that’s in the business is
16:01
trying to have that mindset that same
16:03
self-belief and that same thought
16:04
process as you do so I talk about it at
16:07
the monthly lunches I do a uh I do
16:09
almost an every day of video on um on on
16:12
peace and love and happiness so if you
16:14
want to go I’m on every social media
16:16
platform at bradchannel.com forward
16:18
slash contact go follow me
16:20
um so we all I also share those with
16:22
them so they’re constantly seeing me
16:24
live my life in the way that I want my
16:26
company to operate okay
16:29
great that makes sense yeah so that
16:31
makes sense so you try to be involved
16:33
with them even though you’re not always
16:35
there you try to kind of show them what
16:36
you believe and and have that in your
16:38
culture yeah and I still coach people
16:40
like I’m I’m planning on helping people
16:42
you know everyone almost this is another
16:44
thing in your company if if you have
16:46
people that have these childhood
16:48
programming issues they’re not going to
16:50
be that as productive as as as you’d
16:52
like them to be one of the first people
16:53
that I ever coached when I was learning
16:55
how to do this a couple years ago was
16:57
one of my virtual assistants and she was
16:59
in her 30s she had massive migraines she
17:01
slept two to three hours a night she
17:03
couldn’t sleep she had lots of anxiety
17:04
and after doing the work she now is
17:07
sleeping eight hours her anxiety is gone
17:09
her relationships has improved I mean
17:11
just think about how much more
17:12
productive she is when she’s actually
17:14
getting up and well rested so it’s just
17:16
another thing once you once you focus on
17:18
yourself look to spread the love and the
17:21
and the light to the people in your
17:22
