Episode 3

Where to Start

Today we're going to talk about where to start.

I think one of the most important places to start as you begin your creator journey, or even if you're in the middle of your creator journey and you need to take a step back and see where you are. And, that is to get a little bit of control of your BS a.k.a your belief system.

Your belief system will set you up for success. Your belief system will set you up for failure.

Creator 50 Episode 3: Where to Start 


[:

[00:00:20] Today we're going to talk about where to start. 


[:

[00:00:45] Your belief system will set you up for success. Your belief system will set you up for failure. 


[:

[00:01:12] I don't think a lot of people understand that, but your beliefs will control your behavior. Your behavior follows your beliefs. If you believe that you can do something nine times out of 10, you'll be very successful at it. If you believe you're going to fail, at something nine times out of 10, you will absolutely fail. In some cases you will even self-sabotage. 


[:

[00:01:54] One of the common things that comes up when we start talking about becoming a [00:02:00] creator and let's just pick on podcasting right now, because well, I'm recording this podcast. 


[:

[00:02:28] There's two ways to attack that one way is to go out and put yourself in a position to learn how to do all the myriad things. And the other way to attack that is to feel overwhelmed, a word that the people that follow me know, I absolutely hate. 


[:

[00:02:58] Many people in our [00:03:00] prime will say, I don't like tech. I don't understand tech. I'm not a tech person. Oh my goodness. It drives me batty. When people say I'm not a tech person, not a single human being in the planet is born with a keyboard in their BUTT, or an SD slot. 


[:

[00:03:36] They just made an executive effort to study the thing that they fell in love with. We're in a position nowadays where tech is a large portion of life. 


[:

[00:04:08] Here's how you approach it. Here's how you adjust your mindset. You say, I love learning new stuff. 


[:

[00:04:21] When someone approaches to you and says, Hey, we're going to learn ancient, Mesopotamian pottery. You go dope. I'm in, I like learning new stuff. When someone comes to you and says, Hey, we're going to learn how to play the Viola. You go, oh, dope! I like learning new stuff. 


[:

[00:04:49] If you start any journey, especially your creator journey with, , saying I like learning new stuff that is starting with your beliefs, [00:05:00] because we're going to say this right now one time for the people in the back. 


[:

[00:05:09] Let that marinate for a quick second beliefs are not objective truth. Beliefs are just what you believe you have been indoctrinated your beliefs in order to make you act a certain way by parents, by society, by coworkers, friends, the company culture. The people around you. If the people around you make you believe dumb stuff, switch people. 


[:

[00:05:56] Why would you even begin? it's time to adjust your [00:06:00] mindset right now.? 


[:

[00:06:21] That's it life long learner, add lifelong learner to your bio. When someone asks you, what is one of your hobbies? Lifelong learner. What the heck does that mean? Cause most people don't say that, but people like me do right? Some of you guys work in a place right now, you sell insurance or you're a Realtor, you have to do continuing education every year in order to stay properly licensed. 


[:

[00:07:07] I'll figure it out. If I want it to become a lawyer, I would just go to law school and become a lawyer. Not as easy. Nothing's easy breathing. Ain't easy. Once you pass our age, hell breathing, waking up. Ain't easy. Why not just start with winning, start with, I like learning new stuff. I was going to tag the explicit tag and adjusted to, you know, people who know me know what I really want to say, but just start with that. 


[:

[00:08:21] Mindset is going to be key. You can adjust your mindset right now. 


[:

[00:08:35] I like learning new stuff. 


[:

[00:08:42] I'm going to challenge myself today by learning something. I didn't know. Make a whole bunch of posts that starts with til today. I learned. 


[:

[00:08:54] Yeah. Let that sink in. Remember, beliefs are not truth [00:09:00] smack dead in the middle of the word. Belief is lie. Let that marinate for a second. 


[:

[00:09:29] Doc: If you know somebody that needs to hear this, please do us a favor and send it to them. 


[:

[00:10:03] Like my buddy, Mr. Rich Graham has done so far. And Mr. Myles has done so far. Thank you guys for leaving your reviews. Every review counts it really helps out. And thank you guys for checking out another episode of Creator 50.

[00:10:27] Remember I am a creator and I like learning new stuff.

I am a Thinker. I am a Creator. I am a Maker. I am You. The world as I see it is a place full of possibilities, and only when we share our collective experiences, learn from our failures and keep striving for a perfect way of being can we all live our lives to the fullest extent possible.

As the late, great Maya Angelou said, “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” I’ve had my share of failures and false starts, but through it all, I learned something new, picked myself up, and kept it moving.

I am personally on a mission to positively touch a billion people’s lives by collaborating and sharing stories and ideas. My work as a YouTuber, Trainer, Speaker, Podcaster, Moderator, and Designer has helped put me on a path to achieve my mission. I have recently founded the Let’s Get Live (LGL) community which has helped provide a rapidly expanding platform for people to help one another and learn and grow together. Our work is never, done so Let’s Get Live!
