This is the number one most underrated skill for success and living the life that you have always dreamed of.
2
And it's not intelligence and it's not luck and it's not who you know.
3
You see, I used to make $50,000 a year in a job
4
that I hated and I leveled up my life by mastering my emotions.
5
Now I run a multi-million dollar business,
6
have an incredible husband and I'm living my dream life.
7
So let's dive into how to master your emotional control because doing so consistently will make you so much money.
8
The number one underrated skill that is so easy to develop is the ability to be consistent.
9
Nobody grows up and thinks,
10
man, I can't wait to be an adult and become consistent.
11
But consistency is what creates confidence in you.
12
Consistency is what allows you to trust yourself.
13
And once you trust yourself,
14
other people will trust you as well.
15
Consistency means no matter how I feel,
16
I'm going to do it anyway because I've made commitments and I have responsibilities that I have to show up for.
17
And you can't be an inconsistent person and have people have a lot of trust in you.
18
In order to make a lot of money,
19
in order to get to where you want to go,
20
the people around you need to trust you.
21
But that first starts with you being consistent.
22
Your emotions will have you go up and down and urge you to not be consistent.
23
You might say, I want to have a six pack.
24
And then your feelings make it so that you don't want to not hit snooze,
25
not sleep in, not get off your couch and stop watching Netflix or YouTube.
26
So whatever it is that you want, start small, start today.
27
What do you need to be consistent at?
28
And oftentimes when I ask people this question,
29
they instantly know where their current area of inconsistency is.
30
It could be with what you eat.
31
It could be with what you drink.
32
It could be how you're spending money
33
or the relationships that you have or the meetings and the follow-up that you say that you're going to do.
34
Whatever that first initial gut reaction is where you know that you aren't being consistent,
35
attack that first.
36
How do you show up in a way that creates consistency?
37
Because ultimately, consistency creates the confidence over time that you're looking to have in order to make more money.
38
And there are so many things in this life that you cannot control.
39
You cannot control where you were born.
40
You cannot control the experiences that you've had.
41
You can't control things that have happened to you.
42
But what can you control?
43
You can control how consistently you show up, regardless of circumstances.
44
This means showing up to meetings on time and being consistent in every single thing that you do.
45
You can only master the skill of consistency if you get your emotions in check.
46
I used to be so inconsistent.
47
Sometimes I would show up and I would use my personality
48
and my charm to make you think that I was really going to follow up.
49
But then as soon as I left you,
50
I was on to the next conversation where I was using my personality and my charm to feel good in the moment,
51
but to not actually get the work done.
52
So if you have that tendency,
53
it is the fastest thing for you to fix.
54
What you say you're going to do, go do it.
55
The second emotion that you have to master is what keeps most people stuck
56
because you will lose in life if you take everything personally.
57
You have to learn how to compartmentalize if you want to be successful.
58
What's wild to me is on the exact same day
59
that there is a huge win and there's something so exciting going on.
60
There can be something terrible that happens.
61
Somebody decides to quit.
62
Maybe a customer is upset.
63
Maybe an order didn't get fulfilled or some connection point didn't happen with our bank account in our Shopify store.
64
All sorts of bad things can happen at the exact same time
65
that you're celebrating and wanting to keep momentum in another area.
66
The more of these buckets that you can play in,
67
the more successful you will be because your day doesn't have to be ruined just because something didn't go well.
68
You compartmentalize that.
69
It's in a bucket.
70
Okay, this initiative in my life is not making progress.
71
However, there are other buckets that still need to make progress
72
and you can't just ruin the chances of those buckets making progress all because one bucket isn't going very well.
73
But the challenge is it is
74
so easy to let the one bad thing ruin all of your hopes of putting work into everything else because it's distracting,
75
because your emotions get in the way and you're just defocused on all of the other things.
76
So how can you learn to compartmentalize and say,
77
it's OK, this is going bad.
78
I have to move forward and progress no matter what in these other areas.
79
The way
80
that I've learned to do this very successfully is by putting meetings on my calendar for the different compartments
81
that matter in my life.
82
Those compartments are the work that I need to do
83
or the things that have to be accomplished in order for me to get closer to my goals.
84
So in the morning, I might be working on one set of goals
85
and there's roadblocks and there's barriers and there's issues with the thing
86
that I have to do for the first 90 minutes of my day.
87
That cannot bleed over into this next compartment where I am now going after a different goal.
88
I'm person
89
but i'm going after a different goal this goal needs me
90
just as much as the first one did i can't drag
91
all of the crap from the first one into the second one
92
and i just do this hour by hour by hour with every meeting
93
that i have
94
and i look at it as every meeting is a restart
95
it is restart to the goal it is a restart to the moment to the team
96
that i'm with they need me all in on whatever
97
that thing is because that goal is important and when you can start to compartmentalize these things
98
you can move through so many decisions that you have to make
99
and so many goals that you have very quickly
100
because you're not just dragging in the negativity from something
101
that is completely detached from what you actually need to get
102
done right now you will know how good you are at compartmentalizing
103
when you start looking at the results of the compartments in your life
104
if you are not succeeding at the gym it is likely that there's some other compartment in your life maybe your work,
105
maybe it's your kids, maybe it's your spouse,
106
where you're letting that goal and the issues in
107
that area force you to not take your gym goals very seriously because you're not compartmentalizing very well.
108
You're allowing the negativity and the problems in one compartment to bleed over to the other.
109
So your results are the ultimate tell of your ability to compartmentalize.
110
And if all the buckets in your life are going up,
111
they're trending in the right direction,
112
you're more fit than you've ever been,
113
you're making more money than you've ever made,
114
you have more friends and your social life is fulfilling and rewarding to you.
115
Whatever it is that you're measuring,
116
whatever your compartments are, if they aren't increasing and they aren't doing better,
117
it's likely that you don't know how to compartmentalize very well.
118
You know you're good at compartmentalizing if you're seeing results.
119
Results equal money.
120
If you're not making more money every year,
121
then you know that you're failing at compartmentalizing and you're spending your time in the wrong buckets.
122
My next tip, one of the best ones,
123
is it's so important to regulate your emotions when you're at work.
124
This is very controversial, but the only emotion allowed in the workplace is celebration.
125
There should be no drama.
126
There shouldn't be issues and problems and freakouts and gossip.
127
None of that emotion is productive in business.
128
The only emotion should be celebrating.
129
And when you're celebrating, it should be because there is a result generated.
130
If you're bringing emotion like frustration and angst and tears and all of this gook into your work,
131
it's likely that your work is not going to be very productive
132
because productive workplaces don't have a lot of fluff going on.
133
The best businesses drive a culture that is optimized,
134
a culture that is aligned,
135
a culture where everybody knows what they need to do,
136
how to get their job done,
137
and they are all racing in order to make that happen so that they can achieve their goals.
138
So you are misleading yourself if you think that anybody actually cares about what your emotions are.
139
So acknowledge that you have the emotion.
140
You might feel sad.
141
You might feel tired.
142
You might be upset.
143
Okay, great.
144
Then instantly tell yourself, but nobody cares because they don't.
145
Drive results, figure out how to keep showing up,
146
become better, show up being focused,
147
and you will actually create an environment that succeeds.
148
I love the book, If You Have to Cry,
149
go outside because it doesn't say if you have to cry, don't.
150
You can have emotions.
151
You're a human being.
152
I have emotions where I get very overwhelmed or I get very sad or worried about things.
153
And I can experience those emotions,
154
but I don't have to subject the people around me to my emotions.
155
I can deal with my emotions.
156
And I ask myself, can the person that I'm telling my emotions to fix anything?
157
If they can't fix anything,
158
there's no place for the emotion.
159
If you want to be a leader,
160
emotional regulation is what gives people the confidence to follow you.
161
We'll go more in depth on this in the last tip,
162
which is my ultimate hack to changing your mindset in the workplace.
163
That brings us to number four,
164
which is to understand that the way you speak is ruining your credibility.
165
This is a subtle nuance,
166
but if you struggle with people taking you seriously,
167
it's likely how you're communicating with them.
168
And you're bringing in emotion simply by starting a sentence with,
169
I feel, or I think.
170
It doesn't come from a place of certainty.
171
It doesn't come from a place of confidence.
172
So if you're struggling with this,
173
audit the way that you communicate.
174
If you find that you start many of your sentences with I feel like it should be this,
175
you should pivot that to this is what the data tells us.
176
If you knew that you had to start sentences with this is what the data tells us,
177
all of a sudden you would have to provide data instead of your feelings.
178
This little hack will make you more money
179
because oftentimes we do just make decisions based off of the way that we feel and we don't consult any data.
180
We don't do any research.
181
We aren't diving deeper into the issues at hand outside of the way that we feel about them.
182
So when you start your sentences with talking about data,
183
it instantly increases your credibility.
184
And in order to catch yourself before you just start vomiting all over somebody the way that you feel,
185
take a pause.
186
There is nothing more profound in communication than a pause.
187
When you pause, you can quickly reflect and identify,
188
do I have data to support the way that I feel?
189
The thing that I'm about to say.
190
If I don't have data, don't talk.
191
Focus on the data and let the data make the decision,
192
not your emotions in that moment.
193
My fifth tip is all about handling relationships at work and not the professional ones.
194
Working with your boyfriend, your husband,
195
your family member, or your partner could be the best decision you'll ever make or it could be the worst.
196
Everyone says you should never date a co-worker,
197
but what if you marry one?
198
It is so easy to get emotional when you're working with your spouse
199
or a sibling or your uncle or an aunt or your parents.
200
Emotions can run wild.
201
I know this personally because I have worked with my husband for almost a decade.
202
I work with my brother.
203
I've worked with various family members throughout my career,
204
and it can be challenging.
205
So if you do work with your family,
206
this whole conversation around emotions becomes heightened
207
because nobody wants to work in an emotional environment where you feel like you're part of a family business.
208
I remember one specific meeting I was in with Brandon very early on in our relationship.
209
And at that point, we had never had any issues.
210
We were still in kind of the blissful phase.
211
But in this meeting, he decided to pop off on me for the very first time.
212
And I was shocked.
213
I was so upset.
214
I wish that he would have said these things to me somewhere else,
215
not in front of a group of people.
216
He didn't need to call me out this way.
217
And to be honest with you,
218
I was just freaking pissed.
219
But instead of getting pissed in front of everybody,
220
I had to have the emotional intelligence and awareness of the group to not just pop off back at him.
221
That would have the wrong thing for me to do me just going off
222
and being emotional would have decreased everybody's confidence in the two of us
223
so from my perspective he stepped out of line a little bit he was like not supposed to do
224
that that was not what the agreement was
225
but i didn't choose to take him on about it right in
226
that moment and this has been something that has worked
227
so successfully for me over the years
228
if ever i'm frustrated with working with one of my family members i pull them aside
229
and handle them on it directly i'm not going to subject everybody else in our company to the emotions
230
that I might have with a family member.
231
It's not to say I don't have emotions.
232
Sometimes something might hurt my feelings.
233
The way something's addressed, a decision that's made,
234
I might not be okay with.
235
I'm not going to subject our team members to having to pick sides.
236
Brian and I are going to handle that stuff together.
237
We're going to handle it in private.
238
Then we're going to come back to our team and be a unified front.
239
We don't call each other out.
240
We're not going to cause problems because nobody wants to be part of a workplace
241
or that level of toxicity or that level of drama exists.
242
Keep in mind that if you're in a relationship in the workplace,
243
it can be seen as having an unfair advantage.
244
That's just what perception will be,
245
but your circumstances are no different.
246
Having the upper hand with family money or being born with privilege,
247
your unique circumstances are like your fingerprint.
248
You can't wish that they are different.
249
They are what they are.
250
You get to make the choice to celebrate the fact that
251
that you get to work with your partner and find success together.
252
You chose this, but it doesn't mean that you have to subject everybody around you to your ups and your downs.
253
Keep it professional, make great decisions,
254
get an alignment behind closed doors so that you can present a unified front to everybody around you.
255
Strategy six is to understand that people will doubt you,
256
they will label you, and they will underestimate you,
257
but they can't ignore results.
258
A hard truth I wish I knew way earlier was that you can outwork any stereotype.
259
For the longest time, my perception of my stereotype is what held me back.
260
I assumed that every single person that met me thought that I was a trophy wife,
261
thought that I was a gold digger,
262
thought that I was just some dumb blonde who didn't know what she was talking about.
263
And my own perception of these stereotypes is what held me back.
264
Because if I'm assuming that everybody is thinking this about me,
265
what's the point of working hard or trying or overcoming stereotypes?
266
Because people are gonna think these terrible things anyway.
267
It doesn't matter what they think.
268
What matters is what I think.
269
What I know is my greatest contribution is when I am driving something specific forward.
270
When I'm taking on a large goal,
271
a significant project, and I am creating results.
272
That's what makes me happy.
273
So regardless if somebody assumes that Brandon is the person who created all of my success,
274
doesn't really matter because I know who I've had to become in order to get to where I'm at.
275
And those stereotypes are going to be there no matter what.
276
People might think I'm smart.
277
They could think I'm dumb.
278
Who cares?
279
Someone could think I'm pretty.
280
Somebody could think I'm ugly.
281
Who cares?
282
Somebody could think that I would never be successful without my husband or I'm only successful and he holds me back.
283
Doesn't matter.
284
They don't actually know anything about me.
285
They don't know anything about my relationship.
286
And that is the same for you.
287
And the real truth is no one's really thinking that much about you anyway.
288
So you going after the results that you want to create
289
and the impact that you want to make in this world is the only thing you should focus on anyway.
290
People's thoughts will come and go.
291
Their perspective will come and go.
292
You making a difference is literally the only thing that matters.
293
And the only thing that you should get emotional about is the fact that you haven't made a big enough difference.
294
So you need to get your ass up and get back to work.
295
That brings us to the final tip for controlling your emotions,
296
which is to let people judge and label you.
297
It is crazy how men can get called a boss
298
while women get called a bitch when they are acting the exact same.
299
To be honest, I'm fine with being called either one.
300
If you want to call me a boss, super cool.
301
If you want to call me a bitch, whatever.
302
I don't really care because these labels don't matter.
303
Because what really matters is are you effective?
304
The labels and the things people say about you really does not matter.
305
And it's okay that there might be some hypocrisy
306
around being called a bitch if you're a woman and being called a boss if you're a man.
307
We as women don't need to care about that because all we have to do is be effective.
308
Now, if you actually are a bitch because you're rude to people,
309
you don't care about people's feelings,
310
you just ramrod your way through life and through people,
311
then maybe you should fix that.
312
But what I find with those people is they don't actually end up getting the results that they want.
313
They end up with teams that are very fractured,
314
with businesses that aren't very successful.
315
So that eventually catches up to you.
316
But if you're called a bitch because really you are effective and you are direct,
317
don't even bother with being frustrated by that because at the end of the day,
318
you're getting the job done, which is what matters.
319
I learned this little trick from Elena Cardone.
320
I cannot take any credit for this.
321
I stalked her YouTube before I ever met her and she reframed being a gold digger.
322
She had been called a gold digger by lots of people
323
and it really bothered her for a while until she reframed it.
324
And her reframe was, yes,
325
I do dig for gold in every relationship and I dig for gold in myself.
326
So being a gold digger actually is not a bad thing when you redefine it like that.
327
She's actually proud of that because she knows
328
that she's not just in some relationship in order to make money or have financial security.
329
She's in a relationship where she's created love and a true partnership and a real bond.
330
She's not insecure about her relationship,
331
but this label sounded bad.
332
So she just reframed the label.
333
I dig for golden people and that is a beautiful thing.
334
So if you're being called a bitch or some label that you don't like,
335
that frustrates you that might get under your skin figure out a reframe for that if it's being called a
336
reorganize your brain to say hey that actually means
337
that i'm being direct and decisive direct
338
and decisive are fantastic characteristics being able to reframe labels
339
and truly master your emotions is just the first step to getting everything
340
that you want in life what's holding you back likely isn't just your mindset it's probably your habits too
341
so watch this next video on the nine habits you need to learn to be part of the top 1%.
