It's Time to Embrace Vulnerability | Simon Sinek

This is a time of vulnerability. We’ve been forced to recognize that we cannot get through this alone. We must be willing to ask for help.

This clip is from a conversation with founder and CEO Reggie Joiner for the Orange Conference.

Simon is an unshakable optimist who believes in a bright future and our ability to build it together. Described as “a visionary thinker with a rare intellect,” Simon teaches leaders and organizations how to inspire people. With a bold goal to help build a world in which the vast majority of people wake up every single day feeling inspired, feel safe at work, and feel fulfilled at the end of the day, Simon is leading a movement to inspire people to do the things that inspire them. Simon is the author of multiple best-selling books including Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, Together is Better, and Find Your Why. His new book, The Infinite Game, will be released in 2019.

Simon’s WHY: To inspire people to do the things that inspire them so that, together, each of us can change our world for the better.

Cash Flow Clarity: A Monthly Model to Manage the Year Ahead

Bracing for the worst calls for some serious financial analysis. To avoid hitting the wall by running out of cash, we need to make sure you can line up the resources you're going to need to get through the worst case scenario. Having worked out your Break-Even Sales level, we'll see what can be done to lower it, through out-sourcing and cost-cutting. But we can't afford to be so radical that we kill the goose that may lay tomorrow's golden egg.

A Helping Hand to Raise Your Resilience

We entrepreneurs are now at the sharp end of the steepest, deepest economic down-turn the world has ever seen. We are being stretched to destruction in financial and human terms, simultaneously. The challenges we face are colossal; both in finding the funding to survive and in coping with the shock and horror of the sheer scale and unfairness of the suffering we are facing. People are scattered right across the Kübler-Ross Grief Cycle, from Denial and Anger to Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. But as business leaders, the sooner we can work through to Acceptance, the sooner we can summon our teams to survive and ultimately thrive.

A Blueprint for (re-)Building Value

Time to look up! When coping with a crisis, we tend to see nothing but negatives. That's natural. But we need to search for bright spots too; it would be a shame to miss them, wouldn't it? We need to scour the skies for silver-linings and opportunities to do things differently. Bearing in mind that there are 3 building blocks of value in a business (Stand-Alone, Synergies and Strategic Benefits for a partner), explore what can be done to build each block. If progress in one area is on-hold, see what can be done in others. I've sold plenty of loss-making businesses in my career, which just goes to show that poor or negative stand-alone value can be outweighed by other benefits a business can offer a potential partner. And competition works wonders!

Because we Entrepreneurs are all now facing an unprecedented crisis, and because I (ultimately) learned lessons from the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 which I wish I'd known earlier.

Do you have the right mindset to be a Millionaire? John Assaraf can assist you in getting your mindset right

Get your mindset right in John's 7 days to a Millionaire Mindset right here

In the below post by John originally published here John talks about three valuable techniques to help develop your mindset.

Are you finally ready to begin earning the income you want and deserve? If you're willing to take action and develop the mindset of a millionaire, you're in the right place.

Millionaires know there’s an abundance in the universe. Millionaires know what money is all about. They value their abilities; they value who they are; they value their knowledge; they hone their skills and back their ideas with a solid plan. That’s why they’re millionaires.

In this video, you'll find out what it takes to think, act, and feel like a millionaire. Watch and learn how to train your brain to accomplish goals. Here's to your success!


1. Understand what money is . . . and your personal relationship with it.
Money is a means for fair exchange between those involved with transactions such as trading and investing. So money is nothing more than an idea . . . and ideas are nothing more than electromagnetic energy.

What I have discovered from the people I know who are millionaires, is that they understand the concept of trade. They understand what it takes for business success.

If they have a product or a service, or an idea, or knowledge that people want, they know that those 10 or 100 or 1000 people will be willing to trade their cash or make electronic credit card transfer for what they want and/or need.

Money is an idea . . . but more than that, it's just a means of exchange that we use every day. There are different ways to earn more money, but the first thing to think about is: how do I develop a relationship with money that helps me figure out how to use my skills to create wealth?

Reflect on this. What product or skills do you have to exchange with others?

The people who are making a lot of money today are somehow creating this exchange on a local or international level.

You could make money buying real estate, and in the transaction of purchase a property from somebody, you’re helping them. You’re giving them money for their goods. If you fix it up and then sell it again, then you’ve done the work of fixing it up and finding another buyer . . .

In every area of life, whether it’s the real estate market, the stock market, or your service, it’s a means of exchange. There's so much money in the world, right? The question is, are you going to get your share?

2. Value yourself first and foremost.
There’s a saying: “We don’t see the world as it is. We only see the world as we are.”

The money results you’re experiencing are a mirror of your internal financial blueprint. When you change your internal blueprint and financial self-image, you transform your outside results. And when you value yourself first and foremost, you increase your deserving level through a new self-worth vibration and resonance.

Why do most lottery winners who receive millions of dollars lose it so fast? The loss happens because their entire being (subconscious and conscious mind) doesn't place value on the fact that now they have tons of money and a new lifestyle.

When you have low self-esteem . . . and you don’t feel you deserve a lot of money, then it's going to disappear quickly.

But when you value these things and you feel worthy, when your self-worth is high, you're going to keep the dough, go on the vacations you deserve, and enjoy your wealth.

Even if you already know how to make more money because you have the knowledge and the skills . . . if you don’t value yourself and have the belief that you are worthy, then you’re going to struggle to achieve your full potential and financial well-being.

Either that or you’ll achieve success but then sabotage it because the success outside doesn’t match what you believe you deserve on the inside. Make sense?

3. Hone your skills and make a plan.
Because so few people are willing to invest in themselves for one hour a day, most people never reach their full potential. And it's not because most people don’t have the potential . . .

It's because they don’t have the discipline to practice and hone their skills. If you can imagine just one hour of each day to focus on getting better at what you love to do, it would be one of the best uses of your time.

Since there is no such thing as time management, the only thing you can manage is what you do in time if you can start teaching yourself how to do high impact activities that move you forward and high-income activities, then you have a head start on how you create your millionaire mindset.

You will get paid in direct proportion to the service and value you bring to the marketplace for which you charge. Remember, money is part of a value system and the more you get people to value what you offer, the more you will earn . . .

Ask yourself these questions:

What must I learn?
What skills must I upgrade?
What beliefs and habits must I develop?
What beliefs and habits must I release?
Who can help me achieve this?
When you are clear about what you must do, it's time to create a plan and start taking immediate action.

Money is easy to earn if you do a few things right, and it will forever elude you if you ignore these basic principles.

To earn more money, you must have the right mindset (a success mindset), skillset, and action set.
