• 03:00 - 03:30 well, Printful is there for you. You can now find the link with more information on the description below. I hope this helps and let's get back to the video. You have an undeniable intuition. When I met Mark Hub, he as a child already knew that he would be successful. Even he accepted that other people would make fun of him and call him a nerd and call him an outsider. He didn't know how big it was going to be, but he knew that he was going to be successful. If you have
• 03:30 - 04:00 always had that feeling within yourself that you are meant for more and you are taking the steps every single day to just improve your life and yourself well that's your sign you are on your path of becoming successful. So when you look at the most successful people Michael Jordan Oprah Winfrey David Gogggins all these people they have failed more often than they have succeeded. Being successful is not you achieving something but it's the attitude of you standing up every time you fail. Because
• 04:00 - 04:30 in your mind failing doesn't mean anything. You have an unbreakable drive. There is nothing that can stop because your drive is not there because you want to achieve numbers or because you want to achieve materialistic gains but your drive is coming from the right place. You can be placed in the hardest situations. You have the type of mentality that says it is not hard for me. And because you keep saying that well it becomes true for you. You start becoming stronger than everyone around you. Not because you are better than
• 04:30 - 05:00 them but because you do not allow yourself to say it is hard. You always remain grateful. You always remain strong cuz you know that God has prayed at you for something big and you take it in. You have a strong desire to give and to serve. If you only think about yourself, your energy is very limited. If you start thinking about the people you love around you, you will have more energy. But if you start caring and wanting to help and serve people around the world, then you are given a strength
• 05:00 - 05:30 that surpasses everything that anyone can understand. And that's what successful people have in common. How can I give to others? How can I serve others? How can I use my personality to serve people? When I was younger, I would always get in trouble. always get in trouble because I would try to help everyone around me at the risk of myself. So during the exams when I would see someone struggle with the answers, I would try to like make a little papers and throw away it to them so that they could have the answers. I have always had this thing within myself where I
• 05:30 - 06:00 wanted to help everyone. And what I have seen in my own life is that God the creator has always given it back to me. Every time you ask how can I help others and life answers how can I help you? They don't make excuses. They take full responsibility of whatever they have gone through. It doesn't matter if they have gone through five breakups. It doesn't matter if they have gone through five toxic relationships. If they have gone through a physical, mental abuse in their childhood, if they have been betrayal, if they have lost everything, they will always come back stronger
• 06:00 - 06:30 because they do not make excuses for themselves. They will ask themselves what has allowed this person to treat me this way and how can I change within myself to never let that happen again. They never let anyone be responsible for their own life. They don't allow other people's meanness and viciousness get to them. When you listen to Oprah Winfrey speeches, the woman who is the most successful woman in this earth, she always talks about the purity of her
• 06:30 - 07:00 heart. Her never having wanted something bad for anyone around her. You cannot be feeding your momentum and your success if your heart isn't pure. For every action there is a consequence. Whenever someone has hurt you in any way, if you forgive them, that person will pay the consequences of what they have done to you. But if you instead try to pay them back, well, you just took upon you not only your actions but their actions, too. Because you try to do the creator's
• 07:00 - 07:30 job because you have forgotten that every time you try to fix things that aren't yours to fix, you are losing some of your energy. And not just your energy but also your momentum. You don't hold grudges. You forgive. You move on. Even if it's very hard to forgive and to move on, every time you forgive and you move on, you strengthen yourself. You show the creator that you can deal with more. And as a result, the creator gives you more and you become more. Whatever has been taken away from you will be given back to you. Because every time you try
• 07:30 - 08:00 to pay them back, not only do you deal with your karma, but you also take theirs upon you. And that's why you don't create any momentum because you are dealing with all that toxicity inside of you. You believe in yourself when nobody does. You believe in yourself when there is no reason to believe in yourself. You believe in yourself even when you see that there are thousands of people doing the same thing. They have that inner belief within themselves that nobody understands and that's when they break through and that creates almost like an obligation for others to believe in you. When you believe so strongly in yourself, it's that self-belief that
• 08:00 - 08:30 becomes addictive to others. They protect that belief from other people. Sometimes you can be in crowds and you can be in a presence of someone who doubts themselves and you start doubting yourself because you are picking up on their doubts. They don't allow space for the outside knows. Every time you listen to everyone around you, well, you start doubting yourself and they do not allow that to happen to themselves. They believe in themselves even when nobody does. The same thing that the creator has placed within this person, it has been placed within you. And so if someone else can do it, then so can you.
• 08:30 - 09:00 There is nothing more in them than there is in you. Everything is an opportunity for them to grow or to learn. They're going through a challenge. Well, they know that's how they are being stretched for more. They don't see challenges or obstacles. They only see an opportunity to grow and learn. They always have something in their mind where when they see other successful people, instead of saying, "Oh, I wish I had what they have," they think to themselves, "What do they know that I don't?" And then they start listening to podcasts. They start reading books. They start surrounding themselves with people who
• 09:00 - 09:30 know more because they have that willingness to always learn and grow. You can never go down. It's almost as if you are protected from low vibe frequencies because your vibration is so high that you are untouchable to low vibrations and that is what makes you magnetic and what guarantees you are on your path of becoming successful. But you have to have that thing within yourself which is to always want to be better to grow and learn in whatever field it is that matters to you. They are obsessive. When they have chosen to
• 09:30 - 10:00 go after something, they are going to do whatever it takes to go to that something. They're going to think about it. They're going to sleep thinking about it. They're going to obsess. That's the only thing that's going to be in their mind 24 hours, 7 days a week. So you can already tell if you were the type of person who when you were younger you would obsess about this guy over and over again or when you had like this project you would obsess about it over and over again. People who have an obsessive personality they actually have an advantage into becoming successful because that obsession can be redirected
• 10:00 - 10:30 into who you want to be and where you want to go. I remember one day watching Jennifer Lopez documentary on Netflix and she was saying before every performance she's thinking about that 24 hours 7 days a week. That's the only thing that can take place in her mind and that's the reason of her performing so well. People who are successful they love that thing they do so much and because it's coming from passion well they are so obsessed with that and it's that obsession that makes them stand out. Everybody can connect and tap into
• 10:30 - 11:00 that passion when you know what it is that you love. And successful people spend their entire life figuring out what that thing is so that they can have that passion and that obsession redirected into their vision and into their project. Successful people always finish what they start. They never start something and then leave it and then start something else. They don't do that. And it starts with small little things like creating a puzzle. You have something inside of you that says, "I'm
• 11:00 - 11:30 not going to give up until that's done." Well, that shows how you do everything else in your life. And successful people, they have that instinct within themsel to never want to give up with the things they start. It's a subtle sign of having integrity with yourself. It's a subtle sign that shows deep selfrespect. You build trust with yourself. You know that if you say something to yourself, you're going to keep your word. That's a reflection of your personality. You finish things for yourself not because others are watching but because you know you started that thing. You make it a small habit in your
• 11:30 - 12:00 mind to always finish what you start. Let me show you a little behind the scenes of how I used Printful for myself. So getting signed up is very easy. You can do it through multiple sources, Google, Apple, Facebook. Then you will be asked to answer a few questions. Then you can start designing your product. As I told you before, you have a lots of product to choose from. But to give you an actual example, I'm going to choose clothing. Let's say I want to create a cropped hoodie. Okay, I choose the color. I choose the size. I
• 12:00 - 12:30 upload my design. Let's just say I want to make a hoodie with my branding. Okay, there it is. I can adjust a logo. Now, once I'm done and I like my new design, well, I can now start linking it to Shopify. So, Printull allows you to connect with many e-commerces. So, not only Shopify, but you can work with Etsy, who commerce and so much more. They will handle all the logistics for you from printing to shipping. You can now launch your own merch line from hoodies to mugs to totems and so much
• 12:30 - 13:00 more. It's perfect if you have your own personal branding or if you are just an influencer who wants to start their own branding. You can also use it to promote products for events.

• 13:00 - 13:30 the description below if you want to find out more. I hope this is helpful and if this feels like the right calling for you, go check them out. Printful, thank you for sponsoring this video. Let's get back into our today's episode. Successful people see obstacles as an illusion. Every challenge you go through actually doesn't exist. It's an illusion in your mind. It's almost as if you had already conquered and won. But your mind is playing tricks with you by placing these obstacles around you. And
• 13:30 - 14:00 successful people know that. successful person never says it is impossible but they will always ask themselves how do I make it possible how do I make it possible and that's how products are created that's how brands are created that's how success is created by recognizing that obstacles are only an illusion when you recognize that obstacles are only an illusion in your mind well you become more confident because you already know you won so you already know that there is nothing that can stand in between where you are and where you want to go and that whatever
• 14:00 - 14:30 Whatever that obstacle is, you know in your mind that you have already overcome it. And because of that, you open the door to life to come up with a solution for you to actually overcome the obstacle. They don't accept obstacles. They always ask themselves, how do I close the gap rather than to assume that the gap cannot be closen? Successful people are curious and intentional. I have a sister who used to be a lawyer and when I was studying for my marketing degree, I had a a clause that I had to pass which was about laws. So she was
• 14:30 - 15:00 helping me. She was both helping me and my cousin who was in the same class. She was so kind. She would take my cousin and teach him and then she would take me and teach me. And as she was teaching my cousin, it would always only take like 30 minutes. When she would take me, sometimes it could go up to two hours. And the reason why is because every time she would try to explain a law to me, I would ask why and why and why. I would not surrender until I understood the root of the law, the rule they had come up with. That's how I have been with everything in my life. I remember
• 15:00 - 15:30 listening to a podcast of Mel Robbins and Jay Shetty where Mel Robbins said, "Who are the people who have influenced you into your success?" And he says, "There is that one teacher I used to have. It was a teacher in art, I believe." So, so every time he would create something that was very pretty and he would give it to the teacher and the teacher would say, "Why did you create it this way?" And he could not come up with a deeper reasoning than it looks good. Well, he would never pass. And that's how this teacher has installed within J Shetty to always do
• 15:30 - 16:00 things with purpose to always be intentional with the things you create. Oprah Winfrey shared that the day her success became a global phenomenon is when she started every show she had with an intention. What is my intention with this episode? I try to do that with the content that I create. What is my intention with me recording this video? Everything you create in your life, everything you do in your life, you always want to ask yourself the question, what is my intention behind? Because what will come back to you is
• 16:00 - 16:30 the result of your intention. And that's what successful people have in common. They are curious and intentional in everything they do. And that's it for today.
