Welcome To Russell Brunson’s Marketing Secrets Podcast. So, the big question is this, “How are entrepreneurs like us, who didn’t cheat and take on venture capital, who are spending money from our own wallets, how do we market in a way that lets us get our products and services and things that we believe in out to the world… and yet still remain profitable?” That is the question, and this podcast will give you the answers.

It’s 4:30 in the morning, what time is it for you?…

On this episode Russell talks about being willing to do what others aren’t willing to do and how that will help you be the best.

Here are some cool things to listen for in today’s episode:

  • How Russell became the best when he was a wrestler.
  • And why if you are not willing to put in extra time and effort someone else will be and then you will miss out on something great.

So listen below to find out why you need to be willing to work hard when others aren’t in order to be the best.

---Transcript---

Hey everyone! This is Russell, and I’ll welcome you to a super late night -- or maybe a very early morning Marketing In Your Car.

Hey everyone. It’s about 4:30 in the morning, and I’m driving home from the office. And you may be wondering, “Why in the world, Russell, are you up at 4:30 in the morning?”

And the reason is because I did a webinar tonight with a group from Australia, and so I wanted to serve them at their time zone, and so I went in super late tonight into the webinar and just kind of got done, and I’m about to crash and fall asleep.

I hope I don’t wreck on the way home. [Laughter] If I do, and you guys hear this, let my wife know I’m on the side of the road. No, just joking, but anyway I had a lot of fun with it, and today was a crazy day.

I don’t like bragging about numbers or talking about numbers. But one of the most -- one of the biggest money days in our business, which is cool because we didn’t even have a product launch. I did three webinars, which was kind of fun and wears you out, obviously, and then we had a huge coaching deal come through.

We’ve been working on it for almost a year now, and anyway, it’s crazy. I mean, we literally did more today than we did last January as a whole, which is really cool, so exciting times, fun things are happening.

But what I want to talk to you guys about tonight, and hopefully, I hope this is kind of coherent. I have no idea if it will or won’t be, but we will find out when we see the transcripts later, right?

So, and by the way, if you guys don’t know, we’ve got MarketingInYourCar.com where now you can see, get all episodes there as well as the transcripts. So that’s a gift we gave out you guys as well, so MarketingInYourCar.com, check it out.

What I want to talk about today is, I want to talk to you about being willing to do what other people aren’t willing to do. You know, when I was growing up I was a wrestler, as a lot of you guys know, and I wanted to be the best. And I remember that, you know, I would wrestle at my high school.

In high school, we’d go through our wrestling practice and everyone would go home, and when everybody went home my dad would get off work and he would come over, and I’d do another two-hour wrestling practice with him every single night.

And I remember during the off season, while everyone was out, goofing off and hanging out, I would go to freestyle, and I’d go to Greco, and I’d go to these other practices, and during an off season I would typically…

Like, in the typical high school season you’d get about 40 matches, and during the off season, during freestyle and Greco, I’d on average get about 80 more matches.

I’d get two seasons in while everyone else was slacking off and goofing off and having fun, and I remember one day my dad told me, he said that a coach could take a kid about… he could take a kid so far.

He’d hold his hands “about this far, a coach can take a kid.” But he said, “But it takes something special. It takes someone willing to go beyond that to get to the next level.”

And he used to say it to me all the time, and I remember thinking about that, thinking, “You know, like if I go home when everybody else goes home, I’m going to be as good as everybody else, and if I want the edge, if I want to be better than everyone else, I’ve got to be willing to do things other people aren’t willing to do.

“I’ve got to be willing to do a second wrestling practice when everyone else is at home, eating dinner. I’ve got to be willing to go and during the summer when everyone else is goofing off and having fun, put in two more seasons.”

Because I wanted to be the best, and I think about that now with this, with today, it’s 4:30 in the morning. I woke up this morning at about 6:00, I think, to do my three:

I had a early morning webinar, afternoon webinar, and nighttime webinar, and as well as a whole bunch of other crazy things as well, spending three hours with my kids tonight, time with my wife and everything else.

And, you know, I think that most of my competitors, the people that we’re competing against in our business, they’re sleeping right now, and I know that they will be where they’re at, but I know that I’m always going to outwork them.

I know that I am willing and able to do what they are not, and so I want you thinking about your business or your life. I don’t care if this is your finances, if it’s you’re, you know, your an entrepreneur, if this is your, you know, if this is relationships, whatever it is, I’m curious. Are you willing to do what other people aren’t?

And if you’re not, there are people out there who will, and if you want to be the best at whatever it is you do, you’ve got to be willing to put in the extra time and effort when it’s required.

So I just want to leave that with you guys, quick message. I’m heading in, going to go crash and sleep. I’ll be asleep hopefully when you guys are listening to this, so I appreciate you guys.

Have an awesome day, work hard, work your butt off to get that edge, and we’ll go from there.

Thanks, everyone!
