We’re living in challenging and interesting times – a coronavirus pandemic, a recession, social unrest, financial instability – so today, I’m going to offer you something very different as I speak to two of the world’s best motivational and inspirational speakers, Les Brown, and Dr. Willie Jolley,both from the United States.
We’re not even going to talk about property today.
When you come to my podcast, you’re usually interested in success and improving yourself.
Property is really just a vehicle to get more financial success, but today we’re going to talk about a more important vehicle: you. Your mind, your brain.
We’ll talk about how to rebound back even stronger after the challenges we’ve been through.
One of my guests is an inspirational speaker and one is a motivational speaker.
What’s the difference? Listen in, and you’ll find out.
Les Brown’s Top 10 Rules for Success
For over 50 years, Les Brown has transformed lives internationally as a fast-talking radio DJ, as a community activist, a State Legislator, and a motivational guru.
His global following call him The World’s #1 Motivational Speaker.
Here’s his advice:-
Believing in yourself when no one else does is one of the strongest characteristics a human can hold.
This is Les Brown’s most important advice: never give up. You will have to make sacrifices to achieve your dreams, and you will doubt yourself, but don’t stop. That’s all. Don’t stop.
Early on, Les recognized that he had to accept where he was at. He couldn’t just be angry, he had to accept reality and move forward to improve it.
The inner negative conversation is the most insidious and dangerous enemy we face when we seek success. Conquer yourself and you can conquer anything.
Going all out means doing whatever it takes to make things happen in your life. Whatever it takes to make your business succeed, whatever it takes to get that dream job or raise. Do whatever it takes!
When Brown was fired from his long-time job at the radio station, he didn’t quit or take a break. Instead, he stayed busy by running for election in the Ohio House of Representatives — and he won. Stay busy and keep planting seeds. Keep putting yourself out there, and something will happen.
Success comes through hard work, and that is why it is critical to give more than you are expected to give. Don’t half-ass your life. You will be rewarded for hard work.
You will face defeats in your life. You will face those who doubt you, despise you even. But other people’s negative opinions about you do not determine your reality. You determine your reality.
If you truly want success in your field, you must believe and embrace the fact that you are different. Don’t you think that you perform better when you believe that you are the best?
Les Brown teaches the point that it is necessary in this customer-driven economy to not just serve your customers but to actually amaze them. To go so far beyond what they expect that they are blown away.
Conversation with Dr. Willey Jolley
