💼 The Secret to Early Retirement: Desire

The paragraph discusses the concept of early retirement and financial freedom, emphasizing that it's not just about skill level but also about one's mindset towards money. It introduces Napoleon Hill's classic book 'Think and Grow Rich' and its relevance even today. The speaker, Dr. Jeff, shares a principle from the book called 'the secret power of the pyramid,' which was missed initially but later understood. The principle of Desire (D) is highlighted as the first step to riches, suggesting that it's the starting point of all achievements. The paragraph stresses the importance of having a 'white hot desire' for success rather than just a casual want, drawing a parallel to the intense heat required to turn gold white, symbolizing the passion needed to drive one's journey to success.

05:01

🔑 Faith as the Catalyst for Success

This section delves into the second principle of the pyramid: Faith or Belief (F). Napoleon Hill is quoted as saying that faith is the most powerful force on Earth, and the paragraph distinguishes this faith as self-belief rather than religious faith. The importance of believing in one's own potential and ability to achieve goals is underscored. The speaker uses a biblical reference to a mustard seed, illustrating how even a small amount of faith can lead to significant growth and accomplishment. The analogy of a coach's pep talk is used to explain how faith can empower individuals to overcome challenges and perform at their best. The paragraph concludes by emphasizing the necessity of faith before taking action, using the common New Year's resolution to lose weight as an example of action without faith, which often leads to failure.

10:03

🏃‍♂️ Action: The Fuel of Desire and Faith

The third principle of the pyramid is discussed here: Action. It's noted that action should follow faith, as taking action without faith is unlikely to be successful. The paragraph uses the example of people joining gyms after the holidays to lose weight, highlighting how the lack of a 'white hot desire' and faith leads to a lack of motivation and eventual quitting. The concept of the Pyramid of Success is introduced, where desire fuels faith, faith fuels action, and action in turn fuels desire, creating a powerful cycle. The paragraph encourages readers to 'trick' themselves into taking action, no matter how small, to start this cycle and gain momentum towards their goals.

15:04

🌟 The Power of Continuous Action

This paragraph illustrates how continuous action can lead to significant achievements by using the analogy of Newton's first law of motion. It suggests that once a body is in motion, it tends to stay in motion, and the same applies to actions taken towards a goal. The speaker shares a personal story about how he started educating himself about real estate and investing to create passive income after a career-threatening injury. The paragraph emphasizes the importance of taking the first step, no matter how small, and how that can lead to a chain of actions that result in success. It also touches on the idea that overcoming self-esteem issues and past failures can make it easier to move forward with the principles of desire, faith, and action.

claims to be actually the first well let

play01:11

me back up if you don't know much about

play01:12

thinking Grow Rich he and this was back

play01:15

in the 20s and 30s he went around and he

play01:17

interviewed multi multi-millionaires and

play01:21

possibly even billionaires today like

play01:22

the The Rockefellers and the carnegies I

play01:26

mean people big time people kind of like

play01:29

Dr Tom Stanley he went out in in his

play01:32

book I think it was produced I think he

play01:34

wrote it 1996 The Millionaire Next store

play01:37

you probably heard about the millionaire

play01:38

next door and he went out and he

play01:40

interviewed several thousands of quote

play01:43

everyday millionaires you know people

play01:45

that just work a 9 to5 for 40 years and

play01:48

they amassed a million bucks well he

play01:50

interviewed them and wanted to know what

play01:52

are all their characteristics how do

play01:53

they get like that okay this is what

play01:56

Napoleon Hill did back then he

play01:58

interviewed all these people people and

play02:00

he wrote down what are their

play02:01

characteristics and this pyramid the

play02:03

three things that we're going to be

play02:04

talking about right now is the really

play02:07

the thing that that stood out that they

play02:09

all had as character traits okay so when

play02:12

he interviewed these people the the

play02:14

first principle of this pyramid and

play02:16

again which he claims to be the first

play02:18

step to riches is this and this is the

play02:21

first part of the pyramid D for desire

play02:25

okay he states that desire is the is the

play02:29

ultimate beginning it's the beginning of

play02:30

all achievement and the illustration

play02:33

that he used is when describing desire

play02:35

in the book is having a quote a white

play02:38

hot desire it's not just about you going

play02:42

out and you wanting something you want

play02:43

to achieve it whatever it's about having

play02:46

a white hot desire these people that had

play02:49

all their accomplishments and here's

play02:52

another thing What's the title of the

play02:53

book is it how to grow Rich no it's

play02:59

think

play03:00

and Grow Rich and that was like one of

play03:02

the first things that passed me over

play03:05

reading it multiple times I didn't even

play03:07

realize it was all about he went back

play03:10

and and how they thought about money how

play03:12

they thought about wealth how they

play03:14

thought about finances they all thought

play03:16

differently you know everybody thinks

play03:18

you think about it 99% of the people are

play03:20

where they are right now financially

play03:22

because how they think about money they

play03:23

think they have to work at 9 to5 they

play03:25

think they have to work until they're 70

play03:28

and put money in a 401k and then

play03:30

hopefully the stock market's okay when

play03:33

they retire and they're always worried

play03:34

about running out of money that was the

play03:36

The Millionaire Next store they they

play03:38

bought secondhand clothes they bought

play03:40

used cars they they live cheaply they

play03:43

they clip coupons and all this their

play03:45

whole life and yeah they had a million

play03:47

bucks if that's what you want to do

play03:48

that's fine but Napoleon Hill when he's

play03:51

interviewing these people totally

play03:53

different way of thinking here's another

play03:55

example personal example when I was in

play03:57

dental school we had to like make our

play03:59

own goal crowns you know part of our fee

play04:01

that we had to pay at the beginning of

play04:03

the year part of our tuition or whatever

play04:05

we got these these uh I think it was 24

play04:08

Karat like these gold squares and then

play04:10

we would melt them down in the process

play04:12

of making gold crowns when we we would

play04:14

put them you know we' heat them up we'd

play04:15

have a flame how like a little Crucible

play04:17

whatever and then the flame would change

play04:19

colors and the gold would change colors

play04:20

different colors and one of those colors

play04:22

at the end of the process was White Once

play04:25

the gold and the flame turned white it

play04:27

was that like the highest temperature

play04:29

during during this entire process it

play04:31

turned white hot that's the kind of

play04:34

passion and drive that you're going to

play04:36

need to fuel your journey in your

play04:38

success that's what he talked about that

play04:40

white hot desire remember remember that

play04:42

desire is the starting point of all your

play04:45

achievement now what this means for you

play04:48

is is to start by identifying what you

play04:51

what do you truly want what do you want

play04:53

you know this that's actually the first

play04:55

question that I that I ask my Financial

play04:57

Freedom coaching clients what do you

play04:59

want nine times out of 10 they can't

play05:00

answer that question but until you

play05:02

answer that question it it's really hard

play05:04

to do anything so what do you want is it

play05:06

more time with your family you have a

play05:08

specific Financial goal early retirement

play05:10

whatever it is make sure that it's

play05:13

something that really motivates you and

play05:15

really sets your soul on fire that's

play05:17

that's the D okay that's the desire all

play05:19

right so the second part is this so

play05:21

he'll he'll cause second part is f for

play05:24

Faith or belief okay he'll calls Faith

play05:28

actually the most powerful for on Earth

play05:30

man you know what he's not wrong now

play05:32

this isn't so much about religious Faith

play05:34

although you know if you're a Christian

play05:35

like me that's very important but it's

play05:37

about believing in you believing in your

play05:39

own in your own potential and your

play05:42

ability to achieve your goals you got to

play05:43

have belief in yourself and it's amazing

play05:46

completely amazing what you can do if

play05:48

you just have faith here's an easy way

play05:50

to think about faith in the Bible

play05:51

there's actually a passage that talks

play05:53

about having faith as small as a mustard

play05:56

seed I don't know if you ever seen a

play05:57

mustard seed before but it's it's very

play05:59

small it's tiny it's one of the smallest

play06:01

seeds out there but it has the potential

play06:04

to grow into a very large Plant and the

play06:08

idea is that even a small amount of

play06:10

belief or faith in yourself and your

play06:13

goals can can grow hu can can move

play06:16

mountains okay Faith is like a you know

play06:19

like a coach's pep talk before a big

play06:21

game so imagine like you're standing out

play06:23

on the field you're ready to play and

play06:26

the coach comes over and he kind of sees

play06:27

you your heads down or whatever and he

play06:29

starts talking to you and and he starts

play06:32

pouring into you he believes in your

play06:33

abilities okay even when you may doubt

play06:36

yourself and that pep talk that pep talk

play06:39

that you get it starts to remind you of

play06:41

all your strengths and all the the work

play06:44

that you put into it and the effort and

play06:46

it pushes you to overcome your

play06:48

challenges and it then it starts to give

play06:50

you the confidence to perform at your

play06:51

best so in The Game of Life and finances

play06:54

your

play06:55

internal faith is going to be that coach

play06:58

it's inside of you that's what's going

play06:59

to drive you forward guiding you through

play07:02

literally each play and making sure that

play07:05

you reach your goals I've done this

play07:06

myself we helped people with coaching

play07:09

and that is one of the most important

play07:10

parts before you start anything with

play07:12

even remember with even a small seat of

play07:15

Faith you can start to build the

play07:17

momentum to keep moving forward no

play07:20

matter what challenges you face okay now

play07:22

we've got our desire and we've started

play07:24

to work on our faith okay and believe in

play07:27

ourselves which takes us to the to the

play07:29

thir third principle and that is

play07:33

this action so he'll cause this chapter

play07:36

in the book actually decision but we're

play07:38

going to use action okay remember and it

play07:40

goes like

play07:42

this desire to facei so you you have to

play07:45

you have to have

play07:46

faith in yourself in your in your

play07:50

abilities before you act okay you're

play07:54

likely to take any action or take on

play07:58

something without Faith or belief right

play08:01

this is why he'll list these principles

play08:04

in the order that we've discussed so far

play08:06

all right so let's let's talk about

play08:08

something that most people are familiar

play08:10

with losing weight okay perfect example

play08:14

what happens during Christmas during the

play08:16

holidays you start eating all this food

play08:17

you eat the fudge you eat the brownies

play08:19

you eat the turkey dressing you know you

play08:21

you're just your stuff and you're like

play08:23

oh I'm not worried about it because what

play08:24

New Year's just coming along right and

play08:27

what happens at all the gyms around town

play08:30

and and after New Years they fill up

play08:32

with people that have all made these New

play08:33

Year's resolutions to get fit to lose

play08:36

weight to start working out right and

play08:38

they start off and they're all fired up

play08:40

for the first couple weeks to lose

play08:42

weight and and all the all the pounds

play08:44

they put on over the holidays right but

play08:46

by say February or March most of what

play08:49

quit why because they they took action

play08:53

without cultivating remember that

play08:55

remember we started talking about that

play08:56

white hot desire and faith in their

play08:59

ability to change right so here's how it

play09:01

typically plays out they go to the gym

play09:03

because it feels like it's the right

play09:05

thing to do they just gain 10 pounds

play09:07

over the holidays it's a good idea it

play09:09

feels like it's the right thing to do

play09:10

they've always done it but without a

play09:12

deeper burning desire their motivation

play09:15

does what it quickly Fades out so they

play09:17

have that lack of Desire they have it

play09:18

truly connected with why why do they

play09:22

want to lose weight really is it for

play09:24

Better Health is it for more energy

play09:27

improve self-confidence what remember

play09:29

without a clear and a really compelling

play09:32

reason when they're going to the gym

play09:34

those gym sessions guess what they just

play09:36

become a chore okay they just I got to

play09:38

go to the gym again and they just seem

play09:40

unable to find the time to go regularly

play09:42

absence of Faith they lack their belief

play09:45

in their ability to succeed maybe

play09:47

they've had some past failures haunt

play09:48

them or maybe they start going and they

play09:51

don't see immediate results which is

play09:52

going to what it's going to undermine

play09:54

their confidence and then they do what

play09:55

they quit all together so this is the

play09:57

Pyramid of Success so remember when you

play09:59

combine a white hot Desire with a strong

play10:02

faith or belief and then you take action

play10:05

you create this powerful cycle desire

play10:08

Faith action and this action that you're

play10:11

taking it starts to feed or fuel your

play10:15

desire desire fuels belief belief fuels

play10:21

action and then action feeds back in

play10:23

desire it's this pyramid of principles

play10:26

that basically support your journey

play10:28

again to whatever you're trying to

play10:29

accomplish and that action when you just

play10:32

start something it creates the white hot

play10:35

desire even more and then this keeps on

play10:37

going on and on and then now now you can

play10:40

see this Pyramid of Success that heill

play10:43

talks about if you put it into motion if

play10:45

you put it into effect it can create

play10:47

unbelievable things within ourselves and

play10:50

here's the cool part you can actually

play10:52

trick yourself yes that's right you can

play10:54

actually trick yourself once you start

play10:56

taking these steps and you get to the

play10:59

point point when when you're taking

play11:00

action and then it just keeps going and

play11:04

then you're taking more action and then

play11:05

you're taking more action and then the

play11:07

thought of quitting guess what because

play11:09

you're seeing results the thought of

play11:10

quitting gets further and further out of

play11:12

your mind let me ask you a question and

play11:14

out of the two out of all the classes I

play11:16

took in college I I made two C's and I

play11:19

was in physics so I'm not good in

play11:20

physics but I do remember they talked

play11:23

about Newton's first law of motion okay

play11:25

do do you remember that and you probably

play11:28

remember you maybe you had a little

play11:29

something on your desk that was like a

play11:31

little stand with the little stainless

play11:32

steel ball bearings you know you can you

play11:34

can take them like this and go back and

play11:36

forth so Newton's first law of motion

play11:38

states a body at rest stays at rest and

play11:41

a body in motion stays in motion so what

play11:45

happens when you take that ball and you

play11:46

swing it out and then it hits and it

play11:48

hits this other ball in the middle and

play11:49

the ball in the middle creates motion

play11:52

and this one goes and it's like click

play11:53

click click so as soon as you start that

play11:55

motion a body in motion stays in motion

play11:58

so as as long as you have some sort of

play12:00

inertia that motion you you're likely to

play12:03

continue with that inertion so what this

play12:05

means is if if you can create any type

play12:07

of motion any type of action then you're

play12:11

likely to continue that action so the

play12:14

next time that you have a desire you can

play12:15

actually trick yourself into taking some

play12:18

type of action create some faith and

play12:20

then ask yourself immediately what kind

play12:22

of action can I take and it doesn't

play12:24

matter if it's just a small step doesn't

play12:26

matter as long as it's something that

play12:28

can give get you going in the right

play12:30

direction that's all that matters

play12:31

remember two words if you want to try to

play12:33

accomplish something remember two

play12:35

words do something do something that's

play12:39

your action let me give you an example

play12:41

this is a personal example that will

play12:44

bring all of this together so that you

play12:46

can understand okay I now I'm routinely

play12:49

coaching dentists and doctors about

play12:51

investing in real estate for passive

play12:53

income so initially they schedule a call

play12:55

with me and one of the first questions

play12:57

that I ask them is again what do you

play12:59

want most of them come in and they

play13:01

answer well I want some passive income

play13:03

Jeff I want passive income now I can

play13:04

usually tell by the tone of their voice

play13:06

by how they answer that question whether

play13:08

or not they're going to be successful or

play13:09

not if they say yeah I don't know I kind

play13:11

of think about it I just want some

play13:12

passive income you know I saw one of

play13:14

your YouTube videos or I read one of

play13:16

your articles you know I think it'd be

play13:18

good for me okay if they answer like

play13:20

that which many of them do most of the

play13:23

time Unfortunately they fail but if but

play13:25

if they answer yeah I'd like some

play13:27

passive income and then they tell me

play13:29

they tell me why they give me their

play13:31

burning desire that they're going to be

play13:33

much more successful like what happened

play13:34

to me so after practicing for 10 years I

play13:37

injur my hand snow skinn which was my

play13:39

wakeup call that if I can't use my hands

play13:41

treating patients I couldn't provide for

play13:44

my family as a dentist that was scary as

play13:46

hell with two little kids so for me

play13:48

failure was not an option I I threw it

play13:50

out I was dead set on doing anything

play13:53

that I could to create multiple income

play13:55

streams outside of my dental practice

play13:57

that could actually feed my family in

play14:00

case I couldn't practice anymore in case

play14:01

something happened to my hands

play14:02

permanently luckily it didn't back then

play14:04

but what if that would have happened and

play14:06

when I started learning about how

play14:08

wealthy people operated financially

play14:10

started YouTube channels you know

play14:13

reading books watching videos reading

play14:14

articles when I saw what the really

play14:17

ultra wealthy did financially and then

play14:20

saw people in my area my age doing the

play14:23

same thing that made me believe that

play14:26

gave me the faith that I could do it too

play14:29

so now I had the desire I had the white

play14:32

hot desire I had to do something to to

play14:35

protect my family financially if I

play14:36

couldn't practice to to put food on the

play14:38

table to pay the bills I had the faith

play14:40

because I saw other people doing it I I

play14:42

believe that I could do it and what's

play14:44

the next step do something take some

play14:46

sort of action so what did I do well the

play14:48

first thing that I did because I just

play14:49

gone to college and dental school I

play14:51

didn't know I didn't know anything about

play14:53

money or real estate or passive income

play14:55

anything so the first thing I did was

play14:57

just start to educate myself that's

play14:59

that's it about how real estate Works

play15:00

didn't have a clue 99.9% of the stuff

play15:03

that I learned is just what you're doing

play15:05

right now for free YouTube videos

play15:08

podcasts articles then I started reading

play15:10

books how to pay a little bit of money

play15:12

for that but who cares they don't teach

play15:14

you any of this in dental school or

play15:15

medical school or whatever now did I go

play15:17

out and start just investing money

play15:19

blindly and buying this property over

play15:21

here and and oh yeah this is a good

play15:23

medical startup I'm going to throw some

play15:25

money over here or whatever no I took

play15:27

action by doing something educating

play15:30

myself on information that I was

play15:32

completely clueless about that's it now

play15:35

this eventually started me down the road

play15:37

it's not a get-rich quick thing or

play15:39

scheme or whatever but this started the

play15:41

process this started the process started

play15:43

me down the road to begin networking

play15:45

with people taking more action going to

play15:47

a conference going to Meetup networking

play15:49

with people outside of my social network

play15:51

I was just going to dental meetings what

play15:53

do dentists usually do when they go to

play15:54

dental meetings they're learning about

play15:56

dentistry and that's it they want to get

play15:57

their C their contining education

play15:59

credits and they go home once I got

play16:02

outside of my social network I was able

play16:04

to meet people some really fantastic

play16:07

people who eventually became partners of

play16:10

mine that I'm actually still involved

play16:12

with today one of them we've bought as

play16:15

of this video 24 RV parks together and

play16:18

another one eight mobile home parks

play16:19

together that would have never happened

play16:21

had I not taken the action to start

play16:24

educating myself like you're doing right

play16:26

now with this video that's it and that

play16:28

that is what hill was talking about in

play16:31

the book this this what he called the

play16:34

secret pyramid of how they thought Think

play16:36

and Grow Rich how you think about things

play16:40

is what is the action that you're going

play16:42

to take and if I could go back to my 25y

play16:44

old self when I got out of M school if I

play16:46

had have known this it would have been a

play16:48

whole different type of future for me

play16:50

but that's the best time to do it the

play16:51

second best time to learn all this is

play16:53

right now and you're doing that now okay

play16:54

so here's the bottom line most of us you

play16:57

me included we know what to do most of

play16:59

the time in anything so if you want to

play17:02

lose weight you know what you need to do

play17:04

right eat less track your steps work out

play17:07

go to the gym don't drink alcohol stay

play17:10

away from sugar you know what to do we

play17:12

know what to do right but it takes doing

play17:15

it it takes action to make it happen

play17:17

right and the question you must ask

play17:19

yourself is why can't I do what I need

play17:22

to do why can't I do what I need to do

play17:24

that's it now we' we've talked about the

play17:26

three main principles today okay we know

play17:29

we need to do them so but why can't you

play17:32

do it each time I can't answer that for

play17:34

you I can answer that for me but I can't

play17:35

answer that for you for some people it

play17:37

may be like a self-esteem issue we may

play17:39

not feel that we deserve success for

play17:41

whatever reason I I don't know I don't

play17:43

know how you were raised or you had

play17:45

somebody tell you talk down to you like

play17:47

you you're going to be a failure you're

play17:49

never going to mount to anything

play17:50

whatever I don't know and think about it

play17:52

it's going to affect whatever it is it's

play17:55

going to affect all three principles

play17:57

especially this one the faith or belief

play17:59

principle and when we overcome and we

play18:02

and we conquer how we process failure it

play18:05

will be so much easier to move forward

play18:08

and have success with these three

play18:10

principles and speaking of failure I

play18:12

failed multiple times I still fail today

play18:14

you ask my wife speaking of failure if

play18:16

you want to learn my opinion the number

play18:18

one reason that keeps people poor keeps

play18:21

them failing at money failing at
