The grumpy old walrus who helped me get rich

 I went to my first Dan Kennedy Super Conference in April of 2007.  There were over 800 attendees, all paying well over $2,000 a ticket.  The event was held at the Chicago O’Hare Hyatt.  One of the biggest takeaways I had from those 3-days was Dan’s commitment.  Three days prior, Dan had been seriously injured in a horse racing accident (that was his greatest passion in life, and though it was dangerous, he kept it up until just a few years ago).  The injury was so bad that Dan delivered all of his presentations sitting in a wheelchair.  He was in excruciating pain... but he didn’t cancel a single minute of his talks... and he was on-stage for over 16 hours during those four days (including a bonus Pre-Day).  He would have been 58 years old back then.  He didn’t need the money... but he had made a promise and he kept his promise.  I never forgot that... and his actions over 12 years ago have always inspired me to bring my best to every event no matter what jet lag, tropical jungle fever, bug bite, or plague I’ve picked up on my travels.  Kennedy was a machine. I wish I had studied him earlier in my career.  It was only after years of hearing about him through one of his most successful students, Matt Furey, I finally gave in to one of those ugly sales letters and signed up for the Super Conference.  Shame on me.  Over the years I’ve attended at least 20 Kennedy events, spent well over $100,000 on his courses, seminars, coaching, and books, and made at least a million bucks in return.  I’ve also collected pages of notes and quotes from the grumpy old Walrus, and wanted to share a few of his best with you.  There’s some absolute gold in here. Enjoy ;)  “You either believe, like me, that because 1% of the people are rich that ANYONE can get rich, or like Michael Moore, that big dope, you believe that because 1% are rich that NO ONE can get rich. Don’t let self-limiting beliefs hold you back.” – Dan Kennedy  “Ask yourself WHY you want something but refuse to act in congruence with achieving it. Either say NO to achievement OR dig in and get to the bottom of the persistent incongruence between what you say and what you do. It is OK to admit you are not willing to pay the price – and by doing so, that will stop self-sabotage." – Dan Kennedy  "The failure to act is often the product of inner, emotional resistance rather than external resistance. To move forward you must give up your excuses. Do not capitulate to external resistance, AND resolve your own internal resistance. A high performer has no margin for such weakness." – Dan Kennedy  "Do THE EXERCISE: Disclose where you would like to be and have known you would like to be for some time but aren’t. The more specific you are the better. Make a list of the reasons you are NOT there." – Dan Kennedy  "Extreme Productivity depends on control of self, environment-working conditions, others, time/priorities, and immunity to criticism. Always be asking yourself, 'Is this moving me towards my goals?' and “Where’s the profit in this?” Be willing to buy time & productivity. Find people who are better than you at certain tasks & pay them to do it." – Dan Kennedy  "The human mind needs a destination to navigate and move toward, and the CLEARER the destination, the better the progress." – Dan Kennedy  --- And I’ll end with something sentimental, that you must always remember, especially when you feel like things are not going your way:  "We are given a new day following each night so that we can choose to begin anew at ANY point in our lives. Change is a matter of CHOICE, not calendar." – Dan Kennedy  Success Loves Speed,  Craig        [[Instagram1]Â]( [[Facebook1]Â]( [[Youtube1]Â]( [Twitter1](    [Whitelist Our Email]( [Contact Us]( 2022 © Early to Rise Publishing – All Rights Reserved   This email was sent to {EMAIL} by admin@etrmailbox.com 1550 Larimer Street #769, Denver, CO 80202, USA [Edit Profile]( | [Manage Subscriptions]( | [Report Spam]( Â
