Out of all the people I have listened to and watched over the years on RU-vid, you have become my main source of learning. Thank you so much for making these videos. The only reason they don't have millions of views is due to people's lack of attention span.
You can tell Sam knows Munger, Dallio, Koch etc. approaches inside out. As he seems to be all about objective rational truth which is refreshing, not the random opinionated, ego fuelled crap out there. These videos seem simple but they are deadly when applied. Which explains Sam's killer mindset, culling ego/not falling to cognitive biases, just the pure truth. I'm in the process of developing this mindset myself, because without the Munger, Dallio level of cognitive frameworks, where most of the battle is won from that quality of decision making, I think you can't hit elite level's. Can see Sam as a Carl Icahn type character with huge PE fund.
Thanks. That's mad coincidence about Icahn (just swapped the brooklyn accent for a kiwi one) I don't use social media for personal and only follow very few people as I seek out the people who synthesise the best information like you. My cousin went to Dan Pena castle and from him I learnt literally have to have black belt level of mentors and information you allow into your system. I would love to see a future video/your take, on what you hinted at in an older video, when it comes to reading people, from their social profiles, freudian slips, psychology etc. It's like Ray Dallio in his book covers Internal descision making, working with others in company (internal), but rarely see information on reading external people talked about, which is obviously key skillset.
Top Moments for me 1) IF YOU ARE fighting change, you are fighting the future! Sam Ovens 2) Today’s results don’t come from today’s work and today’s actions. 3) Today’s results come from last year’s work 4) As humans 07:05 we are used to very fast feedback. We post on social media we get likes. We say ideas to friends and they give us feedback. As humans, we get feedback fast. 5) 8:24 lots of humans have not evolved long-term. 6) Main thing of your life is your nexus 7) If you are not getting awesome results now, it is due to what you did a year ago! Wow! Sam then goes on to talk about books. You might read a book. It may not work now. But over time, books you ready will make your life rich. Every book I’ve read has made me money. I applied things later on and got the reward later on. 8) Arc 19:18 he quit his job. He lived in parent’s garage. 1 year. By being poorer in 1 year, 9) 20:40 it is not from work we did today. It is from work 2 years ago. Thank you for this video Sam !
This is Very True Sam, i am a CGI Artist & a youtube Creator and i noticed that the work i do whether it be creating Educational Videos or Selling My work Online Does not bear any real result until at least 3 months after the work is Done.
This video probably got the most impact on me,... I never look at cause and effect in this way.. .. to focus on building the products better than only focus on marketing strategies...
Best advice! Trust in the compounded effect. Few people, if any can even compete with that. In health and fitness. In wealth and business. Invisible asset and advantage. You cannot recover the time you left un-invested. Don’t make the mistake of diluting your focus with too many things...or choosing a single thing and giving up too soon.
Hey Sam! I joined consulting accelerator last June. This journey of starting a business with your help has without a doubt been one of the biggest highlights of my life. I finally feel positive and in control, I'm so so thankful for who you are and what you do. The video blogs are excellent, so enlightening. It's reassuring to hear that all the efforts will pay in the future, there are always those moments when you begin to doubt.
Hey Sam I got your course & love it so far! I'm on week 2 mindset and I realize my mindset needs to dramatically change! Going through all the week 2 course materials now. This video was a helpful reminder of some of the training :]
the most impressive thing for me is that while that was the best month of his entire career instead to chill and enjoy the success of it, he was here making youtube videos trying to generate even more of that leverage in some future. I love this man. You can teach to people how to do something but you can give them the obstinacy to keep wanting more even when they get there. And that's something only few humans are gifted to have :)
Sam that's INTJ Ni hero at its best. See miles ahead with the ability to strategically and patiently wait that out. Great advice in principle, but definitely something unique to your exceptional ability that lives in your make up as an INTJ.
Yep! I'm an infp and started to just reach these insights after years of struggle and confusion... So, I'm glad to see someone with Ni hero so calmly and rationally lay it out. It helps a lot as personally I'm not very good at long term thinking at all. Strategizing was a challenge. My long term thinking has been more in terms of how my behaviors, actions and words affect the people around me long term. Anyhow, love this. Only found Sam about a week ago.
Huge advice. I’m in a path from 7 to 8 figures a year in my business and it’s basically about what you mentioned un this video. Decisions and almost forget about present results in terms of profit
Great video with some eye-opening truth that I did not know about but intuitively realised is true due to the things that have happened in my life...I downloaded the PDF and pinned it on my wall to remind myself. Thanks.
For the amazing value of Sam's course, it is really a cheap course. I think he knows that his course is cheap, but he isn't raising the price for instant gratification. Sam knows that satisfied clients will return much more in the future. This is an amazing lesson. I love to see how this business is going in the right direction.
Great video that helped me feel more positive today. I've been letting WAY too much negative news into my mind. Instead I should be focusing on my daily habits for life and business. You nailed me on the ADD, impatient, "if it doesn't have an effect that I can see today." And you're exactly right - much as I hate admitting it sometimes, our results and circumstances TODAY represent our actions of 2-4 YEARS ago. Hard pill to swallow if you're not where you want to be right now, but you HAVE to take it.
Hi Sam, I have been following your channel for the last several months, but now, because you sold the company, the links to the resources are broken. Do you plan to update the links on the videos? I was trying to download the chart, but no more access exists. Thanks! I love your videos; keep doing content like this, please.
Thank you Sam for your weekly insightful videos, the quality I would say is more beneficial than a lot of other videos out there. ONE THING ill appreciate is if you tell us more of who your mentors/people you learn from are? Besides the ones you mention in this video, Jeff, Sam Walton, Ray, Warren Buffet. Thank you!
Thank you Sam that makes complete sense & you’re right we are all guilty of that until if course you allow someone like you to drum it into your head 😉 I’ve just signed up to your course & very much look forward to absorbing all you have to give. 👍
This answers my question on why eventhough I am doing all the things "right" all the things hugely success ppl talk about I am still not getting the results.
U obviously Love figuring out the truths of 'The Way' I look forward to starting the course(hopefully tomorrow) and meat you for some collaboration. I also have a 24hr/day addiction to advance and share my findings. I need your expertise to affect more people. I love the lack of fluff and unrelenting laser focus. God bless
Thank you Sam! I’ve been listening to you and almost all of your videos... I have made some bad business decisions and of course invested money that I haven’t received ROI due to it not being a part of my purpose. Today is a new day and this is the day that I’m not going to be a talker of what I want to do or day dream about it. I used to be the opposite, where my actions were up front and my words confirmed. I am willing to change my mindset to once again be a doer and less of a talker. I’m signing up for the consulting course today.
What an amazing talk Sam! Your message reminds me of that song Kendrick Lamar has out: “sit down be humble”. Love the similarities 😎🤘🏼. No ones dreams happen overnight it’s about the vision and reaching for it daily.
Hey Sam, thanks for the video; however, I'm still not clear on how to identify the cause of the effects we're seeing and not be mislead by the "noise."
What do you recommend a 19-year-old going to school starting his 3rd business to focus on? I read books, study a lot about Facebook ads, and research competitors. What do you recommend I do the most of?
Sam as Always you delivering Great content. Thank you for Being so repetitive trying to change our short term mindset. I agree with you that this way of thinking is really harmful for every aspect of our lifes
