I Haven't Done This Since 2015

You have to get the biggest traumas of your life behind you. I think about that almost every day. I say to myself, "I love that the biggest traumas of my life are behind me." If you think about your life, it's full of all kinds of BS...the way other people treated you, maybe your upbringing and a bunch of other experiences you’ve had since you were born. I was born to a single mom and my dad was in prison when I was born; stuff outside of my control. If you don't get that trauma behind you, literally and figuratively, in the sense that whatever bad stuff happened to you, you get it out of your mind. I also mean, and maybe more importantly, that you don't repeat it. The cycles and repetition of trauma is insane in the world. I was reading an interesting book by a psychologist. He was basically talking about how most people who experience trauma unknowingly go back to that trauma. That's why you see people like victims of domestic violence constantly marrying and dating the same kind of dude. I don't understand all the psychology, but what I'm saying is we can't let that happen in your life. There's nothing worse than having something bad happening to you and know that you're doomed to have it happen again. ======= ** SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT ** I want to take this time to tell you about a big thing that I'm launching which is relevant to you. If you're in some of my other groups, you might have heard me talk about it in the last couple days. In 2015 I did a one-year Business Accelerator Mastermind, I took 60 people who follow me, who are entrepreneurs, and I said work for me for one-year, come here to my house four times a year (I think it ended up being like five times). We did some events together and I said "you guys are all going to become friends, you're going to build camaraderie and you're going to become business allies." We had two levels, the Advanced level and the Diamond level. The Advanced level is for people making six-figures and I show you how to take it to seven-figures. The Diamond level is for people making seven-figures and my goal is to take you to eight figures. I told them, what you paid to be in this Mastermind for 1-year. If you don't double the money you spent, I'll refund what you paid. If you don't double your money, you get your money back, guaranteed. So I did that for 60 people in 2015 and it was insane! I think only one person wanted a refund, actually it was two people, one got cancer and never could come and literally was dying, so we gave them their money back. The other person I forget what happened, they were too busy or something. It was insane, people became millionaire's from that group. In fact, one of the first people to sign-up for it, David, he had some stores in Boston making money, but only netting like five grand a month. He had cell phone stores and his goal was to make 100 grand a month, and he just hit that goal last week! So I haven't launched the Mastermind since 2015. I was too busy in 2016 and 2017 so I shut it down. Literally almost every one of those 60 people wanted to be in the program for another year, even though they paid $25,000 and $50,000 to be in it, but I had to shut it down because I didn't have any time. Part of the reason I set high prices is so that everybody in the group is badass, and it's not much money. Plus I'm saying if I don't double the money you spent on the program, you get it back. You really can't lose. So I'm opening the Mastermind up again this week. If you want to be in the Mastermind, and I'm telling you, some of you should definitely be in it. Coming here, in-person, multiple times a year is exponentially better than just reading books or watching videos. Most entrepreneurs get stuck for one primary reason, they're alone, they're lonely, most of their friends aren't doing it and they don't have anyone to learn from. Your social circle is everything in entrepreneurship. The other day this real estate guy Richard was at my house and I brought him over to my laptop as he was walking out. I said "can you look at this deal for me." He took a look at it and then started telling me exactly how to structure the deal. I remember thinking, what would I do if I didn't know this guy. I think he's made $2 Billion in real estate, he's a monster. He did a REIT roll-up, if you guys know a lot about real estate, you can't do a REIT roll-up without a billion dollars in equity. He owns a tremendous amount of properties, but he's like a friend, ally and mentor. I did a TEDx talk called the law of 33% and it's how you should spend 33% of your time with people below you, people you can help out, in terms of their business success. Spend 33% of your time with people on your level, because they become your closest friends. And then you got to spend 33% of your time around people who are 10 years or 20 years ahead of you. So if you look at your average week, how much are you spending with people ahead of you? It's a good question that you have to ask yourself honestly. I learned a ton from that 20 minute talk with Richard, he's a freaking genius. I'm working on a very complicated business deal and he was like this is how you should structure it, and I was like damn it, why didn't I think of that? That's what this Mastermind is going to do for you. I try to bring some of those geniuses almost every Mastermind that I do. I'll try to bring a billionaire so they can walk around and talk to everyone too. No matter where you live in the world you can join this. We do have an application though, because I'm very picky with who I let into this group. This one I'm VERY picky on who we let in. So if you're brand new and have zero dollars in your bank account or you've never started a business, you're not going to be able to get into this Mastermind. This is a very specific Mastermind, that's why I call the levels Advanced and Diamond. Now if you're in-between businesses and have never made six-figures we might still allow you in, it'll be on a case by case basis. This is for people who have made at least a hundred grand gross in the past or currently with their business or job. That's the Advanced level Mastermind. That's the minimum level to get in. Those of you that are already doing seven-figures, that's the Diamond level. Diamond level we do some extra stuff that's exclusive to only the Diamond level members. When you apply we'll go into detail on the different levels. This Mastermind is not a big part of my business so I don't push it that much because this is more of an invitation thing, but if you want to apply to be in it click the link below. [Yes, I want to learn more about the Business Mastermind Program.]( Again, you cannot lose money because at the end of the year if it didn't double what you put into it, you can get your money back. So it's $25,000 or $50,000 depending on whether you're Advanced or Diamond. If it doesn't double what you put in, I'll refund you. I did that because people are so afraid of everything, but you should be in masterminds, and this is a badass mastermind. The reason I'm doing this now, to be honest, is because I enjoyed it and I'm making the time to do it again. I became friends with quite a few of those people. It's like your new networking group, I can give you an automatic social circle that you need. Automatic. You can be networking with badass people. I also do some adventure and fun stuff. For those of you who apply today and get into the Mastermind, we're going to the Berkshire Hathaway meeting. It's a badass one if you haven't been to the Berkshire Hathaway meeting. Warren Buffett will be there. Charlie Munger will be there. Bill Gates will be there. It's the biggest business event in history. I have extra tickets and it's in Omaha, Nebraska on May 5th. I'm going, and if you're let into my Mastermind you can come with me. We'll all meet there, we'll all sit together and it's fun. It's an all-day Saturday thing. I have the tickets so you don't have to worry about that. Now, on all the masterminds you're in charge of transportation and lodging. I'm not covering that because we got people from all over the world. So if you want to be in my one-year Business Mastermind you should apply by clicking on the link below. [Yes, I want to apply to the Business Mastermind program.]( ======= The question becomes, how the heck do you stop bad things from happening? Like I said, I don't have the answers, but I'll tell you what I do. Almost always, you've got to change your environment. You've got to change the people you're around, the people that feel normal. In fact, I say if you're not a little uncomfortable with the people that you're hanging out with, you're probably not changing your environment enough. Inevitably, you've got to feel a little uncomfortable. Not too long ago I went to Arnold Schwarzenegger's house party, and there's people there outside of my normal social circle, but that's a good thing. I felt a little uncomfortable because you don't know them, but usually when you've gone through some crazy trauma, you become accustomed to the circumstances that lead you to repeating that trauma try some new friends. Try a new daily routine. Go to a new place. You're always going to clubs, try going to a library. You're always hanging out at the beach, try hanging out in the mountains. You're always hanging out with people who like to drink, try people who like fitness. I don't know. I like basketball. Now I'm doing golf. Just change it up so you don't get caught in those patterns. Anyway, I'm going to work out a little bit. Stay Strong, Tai PS. If you're making six-figures or seven-figures and you haven't applied to my [Business Mastermind]( I strongly encourage you to do that now before it fills up. I'm just launching it, so you're litreally one of the very first people to hear about it, but you'd be surprised how fast these things fill-up. This is going to be my most badass Mastermind. The last one was insane and that was three years ago! I have so many more resources, mentors and knowledge to share with this Mastermind group. As entrepreneurs we have to be constantly evolving and pivoting. The things that worked 5 years ago, or even 1 year ago, won't work today. In this Mastermind we'll be sharing some of the cutting-edge tools I use to scale businesses in 2018. Apply now and find out if you have what it takes to be a part of the Mastermind.
