In today’s YEL 3.0 episode, I’m interviewing The Real Tarzan aka Mike Holston on wildlife conservation and how he has been able to impact millions of people and build a successful brand.

Mike has a STRONG passion for saving animals. 

And he has turned that passion into building schools that educate others on animal conservation.

He has done a ton of animal and wildlife content -- from animal bites, feeding animals, traveling to exotic places and more. 

Show Highlights Include: 

• How Mike has been able to impact millions of people and build a successful brand over the years.
• The ONE thing that is more important than motivation. (It doesn’t matter how motivated you are. If you don’t have this crucial trait, you’ll never make any progress.)
• How Mike developed his passion for animals and wildlife conservation

Did you know you don’t have to work more hours in order to double (or even triple) your influence and business growth? 

It’s true!

And in today’s YEL 3,0 episode, I’m sharing an interview I did with Sean Cannell, founder of Think Media Podcast, on how exactly you can WORK LESS while achieving MORE.

Imagine crossing off every item on your to-do list without stress, worry or effort.

Imagine finishing all of your projects by 2 pm and having the rest of the day off to spend on whatever you want to do.

And imagine spending more time with your friends and family without feeling the guilt of not working 24/7.

That’s what can happen when you apply the productivity tactics I’m going to share in this episode.

Ever heard of David and Patricia Carlin before?

They’re entrepreneurs, investors and thought leaders who have dominated the payment processing industry for over 20 years!

They’ve played a HUGE part in bringing many of the early ecommerce brands online…

… including Star Wars, Sony Music, Time Magazine, the first dating websites, and the first multiplayer games. 

Right now, their mission is to help more people -- especially power couples -- do the same. 

With over two decades of experience examining payments from businesses, they have the most informed perspective on what it TRULY takes to run a business. 

And in today’s YEL 3.0 episode…

I’m interviewing David Carlin to get some of his insights and knowledge on running a payment processing business and how you can use that to build passive income.

In today’s episode, I’m going to share with you a simple framework I’ve used that helped me go from dead broke to 6 figures…

And then eventually, from 6 figures to 7 figures. 

It took me a while to discover this framework.

And now, I’m going to hand it to you on a silver platter to help you shave off YEARS from your journey and get to where you want to go even faster.

• The definite cure for information overload
• And more!

Listen in on today’s episode here!

Everyone has the potential, capabilities, resources and the ability to make 7 figures.

You just have to understand some key strategies and tactics that can help you get there.

I’m proof of that. 

I grew up in a super small town on the Oregon coast with about 6,000 people.

I never actually thought I was going to be a multimillionaire.

In fact, I was doubtful I would even make 6 figures… until something shifted along the way.

It took me a long time to get there because I was trying to figure everything out on my own (which is a lesson in and of itself)...

But looking back, I realized there were 3 perspective shifts I had to make in order to get to 6 figures… and then finally to 7 figures. 

Listen to me break them down in today’s episode here. 

Plus, don’t miss my special announcement at the end!

Show Highlights Include:

• The #1 thing great leaders and CEOs do to build a business that lasts for generations. 
• And more!

In this episode of “Y.E.L. 2.0”, your host Peter Voogd, serial Entrepreneur, Mentor, Speaker, Best-selling Author, and Husband talks with the guest Ben Armstrong, Founder of BitBoy Crypto, High Throughput Productions, & HIT Network. He shares his mission/goal behind BitBoy Crypto (YouTube Channel) and how he created his wealth out of this channel. He also discusses some of the coins.

Episode Highlights

• It's hard to see the payoff at the end of the day for being consistent. But that's hard work and consistency, it works across any industry. 
• The government is always going to be in the background, where we don't have a true world of Crypto regulation.
• It's been very humbling to see Bitcoin move in a direction that we didn't think it was going to move in.
• Through BitBoy Crypto, our mission is to empower people to find financial freedom through crypto-assets.
• Ben’s job is to keep the sentiment for crypto up to educate people on where crypto is heading in the long term, and to keep them as plugged into where the markets are today as possible.
• We've shown multiple times our entire portfolio, everything that we own; we change stuff from time to time because we want to be super transparent.
• Ben is most impressed with the project name ‘Sandbox’.
• Brands are coming to ‘Sandbox’ and buying land and wanting to be involved.
• Peter enquires, what are the standards that Ben always wants to check off to make sure it's a legit project? 
• It's okay for an individual or investor to use a project for the short term to make some money to roll that money into a project you do believe in the long term.
• We learned that when it comes to sponsored content it has to be a named team.
• You can use a website called messari.io and look at the portfolios of a lot of these big companies.
• If you are investing in any project, you have to create your vacuum of research.
• Peter enquires that in 2018 Ben built some wealth because the market was crashing so if a similar thing is happening now, or if there is a different strategy?
• Ben started this channel because he wants to educate people on Crypto and wants to educate people on the opportunity that he missed so nobody else misses it. 
• If you want to get more involved in Crypto, there's way more upside to doing that, than to throwing money into walking away and not getting invested.
• Hard work, perseverance, consistency, picking the right direction, and having someone that believes in you, are all the things that led to the recipe that got Ben to where he is right now.
• Ben’s risk-reward ratio has played out. The risk was huge, and the reward was huge.
• There may be a time when you do have to go get a job or you do have to change what you're doing. 
• It's so important to have people around you that hold you to high standards, that build you up, that force you to not be hungry but want to live the best life possible.
• Our channel has probably made more millionaires than possibly any other channel in the history of YouTube.
• A lot of sources of conflict on social media come down to people having vastly different ages, and you feel like you're talking to an equal.
• The lesson of November 2021 is, we're not guaranteed $100,000, and we’re not guaranteed to have a blow-off top.
• 24 to 27 would be a place where we would be looking to move a lot of our stable coins back into Crypto.
• Ben shares a little bit about his routine and his mentality on how he kind of manages everything throughout the week.
• There are a lot of people in Crypto that make a lot of money, and now they're just low on motivation because they have enough money to retire.
• If you want to scale and want to continue, you have to figure out a higher goal. 
• We call ourselves a family channel; we don't cuss on the channel. 
• We got to figure out where we're going to be in this new world. It doesn't have to be in Crypto, it could be NFTs.
• Metaverse itself is going to be bigger than Crypto as an area, as a niche, and as an industry. Even though it's based on BlockChain and Decentralized Crypto.

Three Key Points

1. If you are on a very limited budget, and you are trying to have a small portfolio to grow into something where you can truly change your life, you have to do it yourself. You have to grow up, figure out the things that you look for, and create something. You may fail, and you may come up with some different criteria. You have to look at those as expensive lessons on the smaller levels; this is what keeps you from doing stupid stuff when the money is big.
2. Ben shares – he did not build a lot of wealth in 2018. When people hear his story, they seem to assume a couple of things. In 2018, he laid the foundation because he understood that, this was the future and he realized the way to make money in an industry is to get involved in the industry. It's a story of believing in Crypto and Online Entrepreneurship that brought him to where he’s today.
3. You have to figure out where you think you may be. You got to find out what you're passionate about, find something that aligns with that then go deep in it, and make a lifelong commitment that that's what you're going to pursue. You may get sidetracked, you may have to go work at McDonald's when the price of Bitcoin is down, do what you have to do to survive, but always keep that long-term vision and passion in perspective.

At the end of the episode, they’re going to have tactical and actionable steps that people can use to grow their YouTube channel and business.

Episode Highlights

• There's so much content coming online every second, that people overload and are overwhelmed, and when you're overwhelmed as an entrepreneur, you subconsciously seek distraction. 
• People are so obsessed with consuming and learning that they forget they have to execute. 
• Instead of reading 100 books, why don't you just read a couple then master those and execute them and start your own business or write your book?
• Are you creating more than you're consuming?
• Feeling smarter and being smarter and creating something is different.
• Why are you studying email marketing if you need to get your health in order? 
• If you don't have clarity, and you're overwhelmed, your problems are going to be there when you come back; it's going to be worse. 
• What is the silent killer that is killing most people's dreams? Their YouTube channels, their businesses?
• Almost everyone who chooses the easy decision has a rough life later. 
• The 5% are at the upper level of success right now they are having success in their business and life, they're doing what they should not what they feel.
• The two scariest things in life right now, especially going into next year is momentum or lack of it.
• If they were to crush the last six weeks, it's first understanding what are the interruptions those have killed your momentum in the past and then creating a plan to interrupt those interruptions.
• If you don't have a plan to interrupt your interruptions, your plans will always be interrupted.
• You have to dig deep from your past or think about why you want to succeed and make these five results happen.
• Once you have the reasons down then you figure out what's the one area that if we Master, and read about, we'll make all of these possible.
• The number one reason people procrastinate is they don't sell themselves on what they're doing.
• If you want to be successful, you have to think and act like people that are already at your level. 
• Six months to six figures is a book that helps you figure out your strengths, unique abilities, figure out exactly what industry to get in that allows you to flourish.

Three Key Points

1. The biggest problem is people trick themselves into thinking they need more information when they need to execute the right information that's relevant to their business and their goals.
2. The only way to grow your confidence and business is to choose growth at the moment to choose the tough decision versus the easy decision to think about that my decision now might be tough, but it will pay me dividends later.
3. People just need to sell themselves on their goals and on what's most important to them. Then when they commit to it and they give themselves a little bit of a reward system that's when it gets easy to execute.

Episode Highlights

• First, understand why you’re investing, and then it’s important to adapt and understand where the markets are going.
• It's an understanding and an awareness of what's coming and how to decipher real value from hype.
• The biggest key to succeeding in this industry is, understanding how to research projects so you don't get scammed.

• We should look for projects that give results right away.
• Peter doesn't want to be involved with people that make that much money that doesn't want to improve society and get back to culture.
• A lot of people value hype and quantity over quality. We want to value quality over quantity.
• What is longevity look like? What is their plan to make sure the holders consistently get value delivered, and the value of the NFT goes up?
• We should keep in mind while we’re looking at projects, is there a roadmap that's proven that's consistent that shows that the holders will consistently get value.
• When you see a project organically growing delivering consistent value with a little bit of hype and excitement, then that's something you might want to get invested in.
• Only take opinions from people who you would trade places with who have similar results that you have.
• Don't trade based on emotion or FOMO trade based on due diligence, preparation, understanding, and awareness.

Three Key Points

1. We should be finding projects that have both utility and value attached.
2. The reason why 90 plus percent fail is that there is a lot of hype, a lot of promises, hidden owners, and no real-world value.
3. Peter shares simple five things on how they sold out their first NFT project - 1. The right people were involved. 2. They had artwork that was unique and differentiated. 3. They had real-world utility and value right away. 4. The collective intelligence of their holders. 5. Massive give back.

In this episode of “Y.E.L. 2.0”, host Peter Voogd, Entrepreneur, Mentor, Speaker, Best-selling Author, and Founder of the prestigious ‘Game Changers Academy’ talks with guest Mr. Michael J. Saylor, CEO of The Business Analytic Software for MicroStrategy. He is deep-diving into Bitcoin, sharing facts, and strategies to buy it. Michael is talking about it from a political, social, economic, and legal standpoint.

Episode Highlights

• Michael says, when you evaluate economics, you have to be able to think from first principles, what does currency mean? What is a bond/stock/property? How do you value property/stock/ bond/currency? 
• When you think about inflation, you realize there isn't one inflation rate; a million inflation rates are changing everywhere all the time for every product.
• Peter enquires why don't more people think for themselves and try to get the first principle.
• If you had the right teachers, and they poked you the right way, then that's helpful. So not everyone has the benefits of the best education.
• If we simply just wiped the deck clean you could be anywhere and do anything you wanted. That would allow you to move very aggressively. 
• We need more independent thinkers to push this culture forward.
• We need to find a Crypto Asset that looks like gold on a big tech network that you can move at the speed of light.
• If you look at the experience of Bitcoin from 2018 to 2020, the entire asset class hardens institutionalize and stabilize. It was pretty clear that Bitcoin was going to be the dominant winner proof of work, not Bitcoin cash, and not Bitcoin Satoshi vision. 
• It's challenging to develop the gold or generate yield on gold. 
• They're all forms of property but they're all 20th-century property that's expensive to maintain, slow to move, and hard to develop.
• Bitcoins are a 21st-century property, we can move to the speed of light. 
• If you want 8 billion people to do business with each other and 100 million companies at the speed of light with no friction across 20 or 30 or 40 billion mobile devices across every political domain. 
• Bitcoin fixes everything because it's pure energy. 
• A lot of times people that are promoting gold own gold miners. 
• If you move too fast, you generate sparks and friction. 
• If we fixed all this tomorrow Bitcoin would be trading at $10 million a coin and you wouldn't be able to afford it as it is right now.
• Peter says you're still not sure if it takes you 30 years to notice something which is a dominant network, and then your career is over.
• Michael has been pleasantly surprised by the support coming from regulators and politicians.
• The one thing that's certain in the crypto sphere is Bitcoin is digital property. It's not security, and it’s okay to own it. 
• The debate was, is it a currency or is it an asset, and so, people have established it is an asset it's not a currency. 
• The world is waiting for clarity from the regulators on what is the security, and what is property, says Michael
• The Safe Harbor is a digital property on the Bitcoin network as a store of value.
• If you're an individual, you can't carry more than $50,000 worth of capital outside of China, it's a capital control thing.
• It'll be a problem to own Bitcoin in a country where you have no property rights; you're not allowed to own any property.
• When you understand it as property then you figure out what kind of property you want to own, what jurisdiction you're in, then you can kind of figure it out.
• If you're a saver, and you have pesos, convert them to dollars, that's a stronger asset and if you have dollars, convert that to Bitcoin, that's a stronger asset
• If your choice is starved to death, or own something in the gray market or the black market, you've got to do the right thing for your family.
• Some are trying to crack down on Bitcoin mining was a scare but Bitcoins come back roaring better than ever.
• Peter asks, what is that strategy of borrowing against the assets?
• Michael points out, as long as the appreciation rate is greater than your expense ratio, you can borrow forever.

Three Key Points

1. You need to think from the first principle; it is that philosophy that has allowed you to understand Bitcoin when you first started consuming that and studying it.
2. Bitcoins are digital energy; it's the basis of 21st-century civilization. You just got to think hard about it and once you start thinking hard about it what you realize is, that this is just the profound opportunity of the century.
3. The first thing you want is a scarce desirable asset. The second thing you want is a bit of monetary inflation. The third thing you want is a low-interest rate, and the fourth thing you want is a bank that you trust.

In this episode of “Y.E.L. 2.0”, host Peter Voogd, Founder of the prestigious ‘Game Changers Academy’ talks with guest Mr. Michael Franzese, one of the only high ranking officials of a major crime family to walk away publicly from the mob and survive. Peter dives deep into Michael’s life, who he was, and how he is an inspiration to a lot of young entrepreneurs, young CEOs, businessmen and women.

Episode Highlights: 

• At one point, Michael was making 6 to 8 million per week, which a lot of people can't get over that, reveals Peter. In 1986, Forbes magazine ranked him as number 18, on the list of the 50 most wealthy and powerful mob bosses.
• Michael says he was very driven when he was 22 or 23 years old. Not so much to have the greatest of everything but just to be able to survive and have money and do what he wants.
• Michael reveals that his dad was a very high profile figure and he was convicted of a crime that he never did. He was allegedly masterminded a series of nationwide bank robberies, and it was a frame up.
• What was it that drove you to become one of the most powerful people in that life at that time? Asks Peter.
• Peter asks what was it that made someone gain Michael’s respect back when he was 35 or 36?
• If you ever had a challenge of confrontation with John, you had to know that he would never settle for anyone thinking that he lost an argument.
• Michael states that even though his father was a famous personality, and had a lot of respect, it didn't matter. Michael was at the same level as any other guy.
• There were times when Michael would give in a little bit, but not to a point where he had to compromise his position.
• Peter enquires, is there any tactics that Michael can give on how to be successful at a young age?
• Kevin Eastman says one of the best things he ever learned that he teaches athletes is big eyes, big ears, and small mouth.
• Michael gives some of his insights, and tactics in terms of negotiation. He says we are negotiating every day in our life about something.
• I gained a lot of experience in these negotiations and I never lost my pool, says Michael.
• Michael says a lot of things that they did were as a result of their political connections as far as law enforcement. He had political connections to get them otherwise he couldn't get licensed.
• We were bringing in at one point time $6 to $8 million a week in tax money and it just grew. We ran an operation for over seven year.
• Michael tells that he was the youngest guy at one point in time and now he’s the oldest guy but we shouldn't be worried about that.
• A lot of young people today are soft; they don't know what it is to come up the hard way. They don't know what it is to really work hard and value.
• Michael feels so blessed right now that to change anything that went I would say I'm snubbing my nose at the blessings that I have because I'm comfortable in my life.
• Peter questions, is there any strategies or tools you've used to help people acquire emotional intelligence to not be triggered by one newscast or by one statement?
• One of the most attractive qualities that I find in people is humility, especially with people who have power, money, and control and they are being humble.
• Networking really changed my life as well being from a small town, says Peter.
• Peter asks Michael, did you never have fear because of how you were brought up.
• There was an article that came out in the newspaper that said that I was becoming powerful enough to bring away from the Colombo family and start my own family.
• In any organization, when you have a number of people working under you, you got to know how to manage them properly.
• Peter asks Michael about his favorite and most accurate movie?
• I think a lot of people are going to be watching Gaudi or Casino or Villas after this, says Peter.
• Peter mentions that there were some interviews where it was straight mob stuff, but in his head he thinks why he didn’t ask questions that could actually inspire the audience.
• By writing the book Michael just wants to make people aware of what's going on, so that they understand and they make up their minds in the voting booths the right way.
• Peter thinks that right now, in the current landscape, the world needs more people like Michael.

3 Key Points:

1. Michael says if you're not a risk taker in life, you're not going anywhere. But you should be taking calculated risks. When you figure things out, and you know you’re going to take a calculated risk, the chance of your success is good.
2. One thing that Michael is really focusing on helping young entrepreneurs with is the auto negotiation. He learned the ability to negotiate early on, and it's something that he shares quite a bit with people. When you keep your mouth shut, and you listen until the appropriate time, then talk, it's a powerful tool.
3. I believe that young people today, especially the young men, they should all serve in the military. So many of them have become so soft, and softness is not good for society. Maybe the military will toughen them up, show them what it means to be disciplined to respect authority to accept authority. You can't accept authority in life; you're not going to have a good life.

In this episode of “Y.E.L. 2.0”, your host Peter Voogd, serial Entrepreneur, Mentor, Speaker, Best-selling Author and Husband interviews Zuby. They discuss why COVID is hyped so much when there are other diseases that kill more people, globally every year. All of this has happened over a virus with a 99.9% plus survival rate for most of the population.

Episode Highlights: 

• Peter says that cancer, heart disease, suicide, mosquitoes and smoking, these things kill more people than the COVID but none of those are talking about.
• Zuby asks why people are getting backlash for supporting concepts like freedom, basic medical autonomy and the ability for adults to make their own decisions.
• Peter questions that why is there no talk about not eating fast food, or not smoking, or protecting your own system, or working out or going to the gym because that should be talked about at least a little bit.
• Zuby mentions that if you're really infringing upon people's rights, and you're claiming you're doing it in the name of public safety, than anyone who opposes you or criticises you in any way, you can make them look psychotic.
• The guest reminds people that all this is over a virus that has a 99.9% plus the survival rate in the majority of the population that puts it in the perspective.”
• A significant chunk of population has been programmed to fear another human being smiling with their face uncovered, breathing fresh oxygen and that is disturbing, says Zuby.
• We haven't massively evolved over the past 100 years where all the bad stuff that happens even adjusted the 20th century, we're totally over that.

3 Key Points:

• Zuby says that there's literally been a mass brainwashing which has taken place, where you've converted a certain percentage of the population, who are now openly pushing for very authoritarian, notions and policies and there's been this inversion, where your health is your responsibility. When you're a child, maybe it's your parents, but if you are an adult, your health is your responsibility.
  
  
• If you got sick in 2018, the notion that you would like, blame that on everybody else, that would be absurd, or the notion that you're going to go around acting like, when you're not sick or treating other people as if they are sick, you have no reason to believe that there's everything has been inverted.
  
  
• Zuby states that every single Mr. Leader now, Biden, Trudeau Ardern, Boris Johnson, Macron, all of them, now have power that they never previously did and what happens when they get that. We've suddenly got a whole bunch of mini dictators. All of a sudden, you can't even tell the difference between some of these leaders and people who previously were calling authoritarians, fascists and dictators.

Tweetable Quotes:

• “Everyone's still moved in fear of when mosquitoes kill more people. Why aren’t people talking about mosquito spray?” - Peter Voogd
  
  
• “It says a lot about the human psychology which is the notion of a transmissible disease that transfers from person to person” – Zuby
  
  
• “It was always healthy into innocent until proven guilty. Now, it's guilty until proven innocent, it's sick until proven guilty.” – Zuby
  
  
• “So I would like to assume the masses have, like are somewhat intelligent.” - Peter Voogd
  
  
• “Just explain this like has anyone ever lost a friend because they didn't take a flu shot?” - Zuby

In this episode of “Y.E.L. 2.0”, your host Peter Voogd, serial Entrepreneur, Mentor, Speaker, Best-selling Author and Husband talks about the ways to raise your standards in every area of life and business. He stresses on continuing to sharpen your perspective till you feel you're reaching some of your potential and your vision. Peter says, once your vision starts to unveil itself, you will not believe how happy and fulfilled you are and he thinks that's the ultimate goal.

Episode Highlights: 

• Peter says if you base everything off your past, that exercise doesn’t work. You have to base it off to things like what's possible and what’s your potential.
• Anyone can read a few people can take what they read and execute it and actually put it into their vision and their life. So that's why it's more valuable than just reading, says Peter.
• Peter points out that once you have strong enough reasons, when you know why, the how reveals itself; if it's not revealing itself to you yet, you haven't wrote down your reasons.
• You need to ensure that you’re only reading and consuming things that you feel are best for your knowledge based on what you want, mentions Peter.
• Peter highlights that you got to have a good circle of friends, cut off anyone that's toxic, or fix it, or explain the vision right.
• The key is to stop tolerating things you shouldn't be tolerating and life's going to revolve around the standards that you set for yourself.

3 Key Points:

• If you love and respect money, it doesn't make you selfish, it makes you intelligent because if you look around, the more money you have, the more freedom you have, the more leverage you have, the more you can do, the nicer places you can eat, so it's more convenient.
• You need to have an ideal vision, have your values, have your top five results that you want to accomplish in the next six months and your top 10 most compelling and fulfilling reasons of why you want to do what you do.
• Whoever has the strongest reasons usually becomes the most successful. Once you have your compelling reasons, then it's just what's the number one skill that I need to start thinking about mastering or studying, or learning or reading about and then it's focusing on mastery, versus overload, stop reading random things or stop taking random acts of action.

Tweetable Quotes:

In this episode of “Y.E.L. 2.0”, your host Peter Voogd, serial Entrepreneur, Mentor, Speaker, Best-selling Author and Husband talks about how to think like a Millionaire CEO. He shares his views in terms of understanding the business and ways to realize the likelihood of marketplace. Peter discusses the various mistakes people make in creating their business without leverage or scale.

Episode Highlights: 

• Peter says that people don't think things through and then eventually get burned-out trying to prospect who has been there while creating the business.
• He mentions that the first programme he created was the NFL which was an actual programme to help the NFL Players manage money.
• Peter states that there are a lot of people that have millions of followers, but they don't really have any loyal followers that actually buy from them.
• He talks about, “How do you get more raving fans?” According to Peter, it's better to have 500 raving fans that are loyal, that love what you do that buy everything you have, then have 50,000 followers that just kind of follow.
• Peter points out that the first step to build a brand is to know your role and what topic or skill you want to master. You got to figure out what skill do you want to dominate and really be known for it.

3 Key Points:

• As per Peter, the number one mistake people make is trying to sell themselves in their expertise more than the solution or outcome to the prospect from a desire. This is the single reason why 18, 19 and 20 years old multimillionaires get broke than 15 or 16 year olds that have more experience than the kid.
• The new way to market in order to make a lot of money, without a tonne of experience is to master a specific craft and then focus purely on the solution and outcome that your customer wants. Don’t get hung-up on “I don't have enough experience”. Peter thinks that the worst thing you can do right now in the marketplace is be just another worst.
• If you get someone to result in your marketing, in your value before you even ask them for anything, the likelihood of them buying is 10x plus. A lot of people's free content is not creating raving fans because they’re not actually giving real values.

Tweetable Quotes:

• “So having the right hire when you get to a certain level; it's not how can I do this, it's who can do this for me, who can help me do this and be a part, right? Keep that in mind.” - Peter Voogd
• “But let me solve your problem, I'll show you how. I'll even do it for free for 30 days, I will solve your problem that you need leads on Instagram, I'll do it for free, if I get results hire me.” - Peter Voogd
• “Right now, it's like everybody wants to be an entrepreneur because it's the most intelligent thing to do.” - Peter Voogd
• “It's easier to sell a $50,000 Rolex to the right customer than a $50 watch to the wrong customer.” - Peter Voogd
• “The sin is starting a second business when the first business isn't fully systemized and automated, that's a failure.” - Peter Voogd

He says if you follow these tips then you will not only live a financially successful life but also a fulfilling life with massive peace of mind.

Episode Highlights: 

• According to Peter Voogd it’s a myth in people’s mind that if you have more money then you’ll have more problems instead it’s more money, more peace of mind.
• Peter Voogd says that, distance yourself from other people's successes and stop comparing yourself to others unless you're just using it as motivation.
• He states that if you want to be a successful Entrepreneur / CEO, you have to understand that your job is to focus on a your strengths, which is whatever you do with the least amount of effort that you're most excited about and doing things that produce growth.

• Stop comparing yourself just because someone else makes 10 million, doesn't mean you have to make 10 million right now. So, comparing yourself to who you were yesterday, setting goals and beating personal bests and getting rid of any external expectations, is such a crucial part of happiness.
• As per Peter, when there's something new in your business or when there's some new idea, think in terms of delegation which means who you can get to do this, versus how to do this because if you're trying to do everything, you'll be mediocre at all of it.

In this episode of “Y.E.L. 2.0”, your host Peter Voogd, serial Entrepreneur, Mentor, Speaker, Best-selling Author and Husband shares his views on having ‘Clarity’ on what one wants or what you feel like you're, you're capable of in terms of business, entrepreneurship or family. According to him you got to knock down barriers once you get your ideal outcomes.

Episode Highlights: 

• Peter Voogd says that most people don't have clarity on what they want and where they're going.
• As per Peter, clarity comes not only from understanding who you are and what you want but also understanding what you're going to do to get what you want.
• He states that if you connect with the best people, you invest in the best masterminds or academies, you invest in your mind yourself and you continue to better your best.
• “I'm praying for you sharing anything I learned to continue to try to give you a roadmap to anything I've learned that has affected my mental state that's maybe helped me get some results.” Says Peter.

3 Key Points:

• Peter mentions that clarity is the piece that most people miss when it comes to success fulfilment, happiness, money and peace of mind. A lot of people just omit 30% of the people making six figures, but they still weren't clear on exactly what they want.
• Age and experience is irrelevant in terms of making money, it's all about the value to the marketplace and how to become more valuable and how to get out of your own way to get real limitations. The only limitation that stops you from your absolute ideal dream business and life is the stories you tell yourself from your past, your false beliefs about business, etc.
• Peter suggests working on clarity, so that you have clarity. According to him most people go through life in all different directions, because of various distractions, people who really want to build a world class by getting clarity on exactly what they want, who they are, where they're going, and to help them speed up that process the fastest.

He also talks about remembering what he wants if he’s not in the zone and remembering that action creates motivation, not the other way around.

Episode Highlights: 

• Peter Voogd says that action creates motivation; motivation happens when you actually act, your motive to act is where your motivation comes from.
• He states that one of the reasons he can get zoned so quick is that he has amazing people in his circle that allow him to grow and allow him to almost feel bad if he’s not pushing himself.
• Peter also reveals that he’s so focused on gratitude that he could never be frustrated because he’s focused on things he loves and things I cares about.

3 Key Points:

According to him you can listen to your favourite song, you can talk to a mentor, you can work out, you can focus on your goals, look at what you're grateful for and make a list of the three or four things that get you in the zone, so at the drop of a hat, you can get yourself back in beast mode.
• He mentions that when you can get yourself in the zone anytime you need, that's when you become more valuable, and keep a good circle of friends that holds you to the highest standards.

• He ensures that he is always in the zone when he creates content or shoots videos or writes his book or when he creates motivational tracks for his mix tape.
• Peter states that he doesn’t even have time for wasted conversation because he has his family and he is running a business, so he doesn’t have time for small talks as he has a big vision and mission.

3 Key Points:

• Peter gives three unshakable keys to keeping momentum on your side because according to him when you don't have momentum on your side, nothing seems to work and when you have momentum on your side it's almost like you're superhuman, you're in a different state of mind and you're creating better results than you ever have.
• When you execute these three things (Predetermine your outcome/ Systemize your growth/ Keep the big picture in mind), when you actually build momentum and build a sustainable business, you can afford the luxury of travelling and see your business growing.
• According to Peter sometimes when you have a big vision, you'll represent the strength, courage, and ambition; you have to think about the big picture and the big picture will keep you focused on the little things that keep momentum on your side because when momentum is on your side, everything becomes so much more enjoyable and easier.
