Key takeaways
- The subconscious mind is programmed by age seven and acts as a thermostat that determines your level of success, requiring reprogramming to break through limiting beliefs and achieve greater results.
- Use the first four hours of your day productively by waking early, avoiding food initially to preserve brain power, meditating briefly, and focusing on the one task that will move the needle for revenue generation.
- Stop binary thinking by questioning your assumptions and absolute beliefs, as this black-and-white perspective creates judgments and limiting beliefs that prevent entrepreneurial success.
- The last person standing wins in entrepreneurship, so persistence and endurance matter more than perfection when facing challenges and filtering processes in business.
- Become extremely self-aware of how you learn best, what you think and feel daily, and honor these insights to set yourself up for success in all areas of life and business.

============================================================ TRANSCRIPTION WITH SPEAKERS ============================================================ [00:00] SPEAKER_02: Welcome to Canada's podcast. [00:05] SPEAKER_02: Hello, this is Robert Smigel and welcome to the BDBC edition of Canada's podcast where [00:11] SPEAKER_02: we talk to the entrepreneurs who are making it happen here in British Columbia. [00:16] SPEAKER_02: Today's guest is Julia Cha, an international success coach and best-selling author based [00:21] SPEAKER_02: in Vancouver, British Columbia. [00:24] SPEAKER_02: She works with entrepreneurs and alpha leaders to shatter the glass ceiling by leveraging [00:29] SPEAKER_02: their subconscious minds to create their dream light in all aspects, a thriving career, [00:36] SPEAKER_02: financial abundance and supportive relationships. [00:41] SPEAKER_02: Okay, now we're ready to go. [00:43] SPEAKER_02: Julia, let's roll right into this. [00:45] SPEAKER_02: Welcome to Canada's podcast. [00:47] SPEAKER_02: Thanks for taking the time today to be here for all our listeners. [00:50] SPEAKER_01: Thank you so much for having me here, Robert. [00:52] SPEAKER_02: Awesome. [00:53] SPEAKER_02: Okay. [00:54] SPEAKER_02: So tell us a little bit more about yourself and give us the details on your current business. [00:59] SPEAKER_02: So are you born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia? [01:01] SPEAKER_02: You're from here? [01:02] SPEAKER_01: No, no, I'm not. [01:04] SPEAKER_01: I am like most people in Vancouver. [01:05] SPEAKER_01: I was born overseas. [01:07] SPEAKER_01: I was born in Korea in Seoul. [01:10] SPEAKER_01: And then when I was five years old, I moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina. [01:14] SPEAKER_01: And when I was 11, I came to Vancouver with my family. [01:18] SPEAKER_02: Do you remember Buenos Aires? [01:20] SPEAKER_01: Absolutely do. [01:23] SPEAKER_01: So all my best childhood memories were made there. [01:26] SPEAKER_02: So yes. [01:26] SPEAKER_02: Okay. [01:26] SPEAKER_02: Okay. [01:27] SPEAKER_02: Cool. [01:28] SPEAKER_02: So tell us about your business. [01:30] SPEAKER_02: Sounds very interesting. [01:31] SPEAKER_02: You're a coach, but you kind of deal with the subconscious mind, which I think is real [01:37] SPEAKER_02: interesting. [01:37] SPEAKER_02: So want you to tell us a little bit about that? [01:40] SPEAKER_01: Yes. [01:40] SPEAKER_01: The subconscious mind is the all-emotic part of us. [01:43] SPEAKER_01: The part of us that has been programmed and trained from formative early age to think, [01:50] SPEAKER_01: feel and act in how we make decisions and how we react to our environment. [01:58] SPEAKER_01: It's also tied to who we believe we are because automation is what Indian becomes our identity. [02:06] SPEAKER_01: When it comes to shattering the glass ceiling. [02:09] SPEAKER_01: So for example, if somebody is stuck at a certain level of growth, what is happening is that [02:13] SPEAKER_01: their subconscious has been set. [02:15] SPEAKER_01: You can think about as a thermostat to get to that level of success, but not beyond [02:20] SPEAKER_01: that. [02:22] SPEAKER_01: The mind is designed for efficiency. [02:25] SPEAKER_01: What the subconscious mind does, it's your programming for survival. [02:30] SPEAKER_01: So if somebody is stuck at a certain point of success, it means that their thermostat [02:35] SPEAKER_01: has been set to that point, automated to have that form of success to that level, but [02:43] SPEAKER_01: not yet. [02:44] SPEAKER_01: What often requires for people to go beyond that is to do the opposite of the survival [02:50] SPEAKER_01: programming. [02:52] SPEAKER_02: Okay. [02:53] SPEAKER_02: Now, the subconscious, is this stuff that we're born with or is this by our parents' [02:57] SPEAKER_02: deterrent, like have effect on us? [02:59] SPEAKER_02: What age does the conscious kind of take over? [03:02] SPEAKER_02: And when you work with a client, does age, do you say, okay, after the age of certain [03:09] SPEAKER_02: age, or is it all kind of part and parcel the same thing? [03:13] SPEAKER_02: How do you gauge that? [03:15] SPEAKER_01: The subconscious is trained to be at repetition. [03:18] SPEAKER_01: Part of it is that we have emotional memory that is separate from our cognitive memory. [03:23] SPEAKER_01: For example, you may have a hard time remembering and send us all the listeners who you were [03:29] SPEAKER_01: or what you did exactly tangibly before the age of three. [03:33] SPEAKER_01: But the truth is that we have emotional memory. [03:37] SPEAKER_01: The reason why we don't remember our experiences before the age of three is because our cognitive [03:43] SPEAKER_01: mind is not quite developed at that point. [03:46] SPEAKER_01: In terms of conscious programming, by the time you're age seven, all your successes and [03:51] SPEAKER_01: failures in adult life has been set up for you. [03:54] SPEAKER_01: Seven is the age. [03:56] SPEAKER_02: Interesting. [03:57] SPEAKER_02: Okay. [03:57] SPEAKER_02: Did you need financing to start your company and how do you currently make money in your [04:01] SPEAKER_02: business now? [04:03] SPEAKER_01: I did not need financing to start my business. [04:05] SPEAKER_01: I started coaching people based on all the knowledge I acquired. [04:11] SPEAKER_01: Of course, I took other programs as well to help myself, but so much of it started with [04:17] SPEAKER_01: my experience of overcoming my own glass ceiling. [04:20] SPEAKER_02: Okay. [04:21] SPEAKER_02: I want you to give me a key piece of knowledge or information about your industry that our [04:27] SPEAKER_02: listeners can learn from that they may not know about now. [04:32] SPEAKER_02: And give us a little gem of information that, you know, this is a pretty broad spectrum [04:40] SPEAKER_02: of psychology will call it, but can you give us some thing general knowledge about your [04:46] SPEAKER_02: industry? [04:47] SPEAKER_02: Do a lot of people do this? [04:49] SPEAKER_02: Why did you do it? [04:50] SPEAKER_02: Is it something that is learned and how can entrepreneurs benefit from this? [04:56] SPEAKER_01: I believe people arrive at a point when they're strictly feel that there's an invisible [05:01] SPEAKER_01: pull that's stopping them from succeeding. [05:04] SPEAKER_01: So if anyone's have ever felt that something along the lines of, I think I can do [05:09] SPEAKER_01: better, but how come my results are always the same or how come I can pass this point? [05:16] SPEAKER_01: Just let me know if this is not what you're exactly looking for because subconscious is [05:19] SPEAKER_01: very intangible. [05:21] SPEAKER_01: It is emotional memory of a person. [05:24] SPEAKER_01: Part of it is also what you acquire through your parental influence, generational conditioning, [05:32] SPEAKER_01: generational trauma, all of those things get passed down. [05:36] SPEAKER_01: So when it comes to doing this work, if you look at anyone who's had drastic success, [05:41] SPEAKER_01: meaning their start and where they are right now is entirely different, those people have [05:46] SPEAKER_01: all done subconscious work. [05:48] SPEAKER_02: Okay, so that's part of the subconscious work is being able to elevate yourself beyond [05:55] SPEAKER_02: what may be blocking you and the subconscious work will elevate that. [06:00] SPEAKER_01: Yes. [06:00] SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's about changing your identity. [06:03] SPEAKER_01: If someone believes that they are mediocre, they're going to always get mediocre results [06:08] SPEAKER_01: because they make mediocre decisions in their life, if that makes sense. [06:12] SPEAKER_02: Yes. [06:12] SPEAKER_02: Okay, got it. [06:14] SPEAKER_02: Okay, what's the long-term vision and what will your company look like in the future? [06:17] SPEAKER_02: Do you see the company expanding into other areas and where beyond Vancouver, BC or even [06:22] SPEAKER_02: Canada? [06:23] SPEAKER_01: I've already had an international business from the Gecko. [06:28] SPEAKER_01: I believe in my first 10 clients, I had clients in California, in England, in US. [06:34] SPEAKER_01: So I already started off as a sole planner internationally. [06:40] SPEAKER_01: Right now, I have a very small segment of private clients. [06:44] SPEAKER_01: They are in multiple six, seven figures. [06:47] SPEAKER_01: And then I have a mentorship for new entrepreneurs reaching their first six figures. [06:53] SPEAKER_01: Those are two separate programs. [06:55] SPEAKER_01: Where I see myself going in the future is to go into corporations as well and to help, [07:02] SPEAKER_01: for example, salespeople achieve their goals better or even corporate leaders training [07:08] SPEAKER_01: them to become better leaders. [07:11] SPEAKER_02: Okay, great. [07:12] SPEAKER_02: Okay, let's talk a little bit about doing business in Vancouver, Canada. [07:16] SPEAKER_02: Where are the biggest benefits for you being an entrepreneur in Vancouver, BC? [07:20] SPEAKER_02: I want you to give us some of the good points about starting a company here, but I also want [07:23] SPEAKER_02: you to give us some of the tough things or challenges for listeners so they can keep [07:27] SPEAKER_02: enough for them. [07:28] SPEAKER_01: How about I start with a tough one? [07:30] Speaker UNKNOWN: And then we can end it. [07:31] SPEAKER_01: Yes, two tough ones. [07:32] SPEAKER_01: Okay. [07:32] SPEAKER_01: So tough one is cost of living. [07:36] SPEAKER_01: Most entrepreneurs know that if you want to get started, the best place to start is [07:41] SPEAKER_01: somewhere that has a lower cost of living, but at the same time, a really nice environment [07:46] SPEAKER_01: to live in. [07:48] SPEAKER_01: So right now, I would say if I were to pick any city in Canada, Calgary is the hot [07:53] SPEAKER_01: place to be. [07:55] SPEAKER_01: It's very diverse. [07:57] SPEAKER_01: It's cosmopolitan. [07:59] SPEAKER_01: Also the cost of living is quite standard in terms of what you get being there. [08:05] SPEAKER_01: Vancouver is a beautiful place. [08:07] SPEAKER_01: I remember when I moved there when I was 11 years old in 1994, housing was normal, no longer [08:13] SPEAKER_01: the case anymore. [08:14] SPEAKER_01: So I would say, entrepreneur starting in Vancouver, you do have a bit of that challenge, but don't [08:19] SPEAKER_01: worry, this is something that you can overcome. [08:23] SPEAKER_01: The great thing about Vancouver is that it's a very active city and it's very well rounded. [08:30] SPEAKER_01: So if you put yourself out there, there are tons of opportunities. [08:33] SPEAKER_01: If you are looking for some kind of example or some kind of mentor type or someone who is [08:38] SPEAKER_01: more like you, you're likely finding someone in Vancouver who's already doing it. [08:43] SPEAKER_01: There are a lot of entrepreneurs in Vancouver. [08:46] SPEAKER_02: Yeah. [08:47] SPEAKER_02: Okay, great. [08:48] SPEAKER_02: I want you to imagine you're just moving to Vancouver. [08:50] SPEAKER_02: If you were to start all over again, you just moved to Vancouver BC, but this time you [08:54] SPEAKER_02: don't know anyone knowing what you know now, what would you do and how would you go about [08:59] SPEAKER_02: starting all over again as an entrepreneur? [09:02] SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's a little question because I did come when I was 11 years old. [09:06] SPEAKER_01: So I am sort of considered a new immigrant, but not at the same time. [09:11] SPEAKER_01: I love my identity. [09:12] SPEAKER_01: Like I mentioned, the age seven thing, your identity is that by the age seven. [09:16] SPEAKER_01: So people who move before that, they will have a harder time fully feeling like they identify [09:22] SPEAKER_01: with that place. [09:23] SPEAKER_01: So I'm sort of like in the middle of somebody who would have come here when they're an adult. [09:28] SPEAKER_01: It's sort of hard for me to answer that question. [09:30] SPEAKER_01: If I were to arrive here now, like some of my clients, they're very new immigrants. [09:36] SPEAKER_01: I would say it's a very open city and you're going to experience things that you've never [09:41] SPEAKER_01: experienced in other places. [09:42] SPEAKER_01: I've lived in other cities before and this is the most inclusive city I've ever been to. [09:47] SPEAKER_01: The most inclusive meaning where people are accepting of other cultures, not a melting [09:52] SPEAKER_01: pot where people are very open to new ideas. [09:56] SPEAKER_01: So whatever you end up doing here, there's nothing surprising to people or shocking or [10:01] SPEAKER_01: different. [10:02] SPEAKER_02: Right. [10:03] SPEAKER_02: Okay. [10:04] SPEAKER_02: Let's talk about your routine. [10:06] SPEAKER_02: What does the first hour look like for you when you get up in the morning? [10:08] SPEAKER_02: Do you have a specific routine or a ritual that helps you get motivated to start today? [10:12] SPEAKER_01: Yes, absolutely. [10:13] SPEAKER_01: It's really important to prime and set our minds to success. [10:17] SPEAKER_01: Our first four hours of the day is the most productive part of our brain. [10:23] SPEAKER_01: Our brain is the most productive during the first four hours. [10:26] SPEAKER_01: Therefore, you want to set it up so that you're not reactable today. [10:30] SPEAKER_01: What I do is I get up five or five thirty. [10:33] SPEAKER_01: I naturally wake up. [10:33] SPEAKER_01: I don't need an alarm. [10:35] SPEAKER_01: It wasn't always like this. [10:36] SPEAKER_01: I used to be a party girl. [10:37] SPEAKER_01: I used to stay up until three. [10:39] SPEAKER_01: It was a normal thing. [10:41] SPEAKER_01: As I started to have this very specific goal in entrepreneurship, I started to change to [10:47] SPEAKER_01: adapt to what worked the best for productivity wise. [10:50] SPEAKER_01: I highly recommend everyone, even people who believe their night owls to start sleeping [10:55] SPEAKER_01: in or sleeping early and waking up early because if you do that, you'll feel the day is longer [11:00] SPEAKER_01: and you have, you just get a lot more done. [11:03] SPEAKER_01: So I would get up at five. [11:05] SPEAKER_01: By 30, I don't like to eat anything, but I would drink water. [11:08] SPEAKER_01: The reason is if you put food in your body, the energy has to go to your stomach. [11:14] SPEAKER_01: So then you have less brain power. [11:16] SPEAKER_01: What makes it to pay attention to productivity to every little detail, we start to see how [11:22] SPEAKER_01: much all of this stuff affects us. [11:24] SPEAKER_01: And what I do is I do my meditation and it doesn't have to be crazy. [11:29] SPEAKER_01: I don't believe in spending your whole morning doing your morning routine. [11:32] SPEAKER_01: I do a 10 to 15 minute meditation to set myself up for energy. [11:37] SPEAKER_01: I might do a short yoga 10 minutes not every day. [11:40] SPEAKER_01: Hope I would have a coffee and I like it black or I put cocoa powder in it and that's it. [11:46] SPEAKER_01: Sometimes almond milk, I just like to keep everything simple. [11:49] SPEAKER_01: Then I would do the first thing that need to do that day. [11:53] SPEAKER_01: It's really important to focus on the one thing that's going to move the needle that day, [11:57] SPEAKER_01: whether that's regeneration, certain aspects of content, [12:01] SPEAKER_01: whatever it is, that's the most pressing important that's going to bring you revenue. [12:07] SPEAKER_01: After that, after that, I check in with my staff because by that time, everyone else wakes up. [12:14] SPEAKER_01: So my kids wake up so I get them ready for school. [12:17] SPEAKER_01: And then by the time I finish that little part of the day, I'm ready to communicate with my staff. [12:23] SPEAKER_02: You talk to lots of entrepreneurs and you consult with them. [12:27] SPEAKER_02: Do you think entrepreneurs have to be weird or unique in a positive way or are wired differently? [12:33] SPEAKER_00: I believe it's both. Some people have always felt different. [12:39] SPEAKER_01: They have felt different growing up because our home family of origin is usually structured like a [12:46] SPEAKER_01: corporation. So people who do well in that environment and their family of origin, [12:52] SPEAKER_01: they will probably figure out a pretty good way of navigating institutions. [12:56] SPEAKER_01: So school system and then later corporations. It is a very similar vibe, [13:01] SPEAKER_01: but entrepreneurs have a different way of seeing things. [13:05] SPEAKER_01: I believe part of it is that part of it is training and also wanting to do things more efficiently, [13:12] SPEAKER_01: creatively or seeing a different perspective. And that part of it is also of course trained, [13:19] SPEAKER_01: but so much of it they are wired differently. [13:22] SPEAKER_02: Okay, good. Let's talk about how you educate yourself. What books are you reading now or even [13:28] SPEAKER_02: audiobooks or podcasts? And can you recommend any books for our listeners? We're also entrepreneurs. [13:34] SPEAKER_01: I prefer to read books. I know a lot of people listen. I do do podcasts once now, but I'm a very [13:40] SPEAKER_01: visual person. Part of what we need to know about ourselves is to become really extremely self-aware [13:47] SPEAKER_01: of how you learn the best, not only what you're thinking of feeling every day and tuning into that, [13:53] SPEAKER_01: and setting yourself up for success by honoring those things, but it's also about knowing how you [13:59] SPEAKER_01: learn the best. I'm a very visual person. So sometimes I would have audible version, but I also have [14:05] SPEAKER_01: the kindle or the paper copy of the book of the same book if I like something. For example, [14:11] SPEAKER_01: the books I would highly recommend is the Science of Getting Rich and also [14:19] SPEAKER_01: any book by Dr. David Hawkins. So as Power versus Force, let him go. Those two are my top books. [14:27] SPEAKER_02: Okay. Now you're obviously a very, very busy person, but Vancouver does offer many, many things [14:34] SPEAKER_02: and is a lifestyle city. And we all know that how do you balance work and how do you relax and [14:39] SPEAKER_02: think about work and how do you accomplish your favorite activities in BC, do you ski, do you bike, [14:46] SPEAKER_02: do you kayak, golf hike, or simply go for a drive? You see, remember you asked me if I remember [14:52] SPEAKER_01: Argentina. Our formative years are so important because we don't even realize how much the effects [14:59] SPEAKER_01: are. So I actually don't like snow even though I live here. I'm 100% beach person and I like that [15:06] SPEAKER_01: really powdery sandy beach. That's what I like. Most of my beaches are rocky, but I still make do, [15:13] SPEAKER_01: so I like going to the beach. It's pretty nice. Yeah, it's nice. It's still rocky, but you know, [15:19] SPEAKER_01: some parts of our sandy. So I like going to the beach. That's one thing I love doing. If I have [15:24] SPEAKER_01: if I have nothing else to do on the weekend, actually, that's not true. I would make time for the beach. [15:30] SPEAKER_01: I would go to Stamie Park. I would go to Ambleside. That's the closest beach that [15:35] SPEAKER_01: from where I am. So I would go there. It's frequent evening, sometimes just from evening stroll, [15:41] SPEAKER_01: just to do my feet in, even though it's freezing sometimes. So beach is 100% beach. I cannot live [15:49] SPEAKER_01: outside away from ocean. This is one of those priorities. I must have it. And the other thing I [15:55] SPEAKER_01: really enjoy doing with my family is by Ciklina and Stamie Park. That's something that really [16:01] SPEAKER_01: resets. It makes me feel really abundant. It was mean the right state. The other thing I really [16:07] SPEAKER_01: love doing is hiking, even though many of the trails are close right now. The one we like going [16:12] SPEAKER_01: to is Quarry Rock, but that one is closed still as far as I know. Last time we checked for COVID. [16:17] SPEAKER_02: Okay. But we love to get back to that. If you weren't doing what you do now, what would you like to [16:23] SPEAKER_00: do for a profession? If I wasn't doing what I'm doing now. If you weren't doing, yeah, on [16:28] SPEAKER_00: subconscious mind. I would likely be a clinical psychologist, which is a pretty close. [16:36] SPEAKER_00: But I wasn't a coach. I would be there. But actually the other thing I really love is fashion and [16:42] SPEAKER_01: beauty. I've noticed that a lot of people change when they are able to see themselves differently. [16:51] SPEAKER_01: So in many ways, it's sort of the same thing, but from a different perspective. [16:57] SPEAKER_02: Right. Transformation. What kind of a job would you not like to do? Could not do that job? [17:05] SPEAKER_02: Accounting. That's a favorite amongst the entrepreneurs. [17:08] SPEAKER_01: Yeah, accounting. I have so much respect for my bookkeeper accountant. Anyone in that team, [17:14] SPEAKER_01: I have a lot of respect for them. You have to be more mature. Absolutely. In business, what is your [17:21] SPEAKER_02: favorite word, quote, or sentence that you like to use? Use this frequently. The only way out is [17:28] SPEAKER_00: through by Robert Frost. The only way out is through? Yes. As humans, we like to avoid things. [17:37] SPEAKER_01: Yes. In business, especially if we avoid things, we're asking for troubles. [17:41] SPEAKER_02: Yes. What's your least favorite word or sentence you do not like to hear in business? [17:46] SPEAKER_00: I'm not sure. I'm not sure if I have a least favorite. [17:52] SPEAKER_00: Yeah. That's a tough one. Can't. No. I will try. I think that's the worst thing. I will try. [18:00] SPEAKER_02: Let me try that. We need to eliminate those words. Yeah. If you had to pick one or two words to [18:07] SPEAKER_02: describe yourself, what would it be and why? One or two words. Describe yourself. [18:16] SPEAKER_00: I believe I'm very transformative. Every two years, I reinvent myself. So I'm a changer [18:25] SPEAKER_02: and a catalyst. A catalyst. Yes. Okay. Anything keeping you up at night these days. [18:33] SPEAKER_02: This is why I'm raising a teenager. Wow. Yeah. I'm there too. In this world where when I was a [18:43] SPEAKER_01: teenager, there was no social media. There was no YouTube. There was nobody [18:49] SPEAKER_01: twerking and popping their booty. It's a different world. We're raising our [18:52] SPEAKER_02: Yeah. We just had bicycles and friends and yes. So simple, right? Yeah. Okay. If you [19:00] SPEAKER_02: just talk three things on your inspired list, inspired lifeless, this could be a TEDx talk, [19:05] SPEAKER_01: philanthropy, write a book, travel more. Anything like that? Well, I have written a book. This is [19:11] SPEAKER_01: my book right here. I am writing second books. Yes. Is it my dirty? Yes. Just flash. [19:18] SPEAKER_01: I am writing a second book right now. To do this, TEDx is definitely one of them. I've been [19:24] SPEAKER_01: investigating and I can't wait until things get back to that state where we can do that. I am [19:31] SPEAKER_01: already looking into it. My PR person is helping me out. Reaching out, she reached out to you, [19:37] SPEAKER_01: for example, right? The other one is seeing my family. I do want to travel. I do want to travel. [19:47] SPEAKER_01: My list is my I have friends in New York. I would like to go and see I haven't done that in a while. [19:53] SPEAKER_01: I would love to go to Hawaii. I have people that I know there. Like I said, I love the beach, [19:57] SPEAKER_01: so the beach center there. But the more I think about it, priority is my family, [20:02] SPEAKER_01: there in Korea. My elderly and mostly my aunts, my cousins, my uncles, they're getting older, [20:12] SPEAKER_01: their grandparents age, not much time there. They helped erase me, so that's a big part of why I [20:20] SPEAKER_01: am into that. Time wise. So even the other day I was talking to my aunt and she asked me when I was [20:26] SPEAKER_01: coming, I said, as soon as flights are back and we don't need to quarantine anymore, I'll get [20:32] SPEAKER_02: the vaccine and everything. So we can see each other. Good. It's a nice plan. It's very good. Do you [20:39] SPEAKER_02: have any advice that you may have received that you can pass on to our premieresaw Canada? [20:49] SPEAKER_00: Yes. Yes, I do. Do you need to know who said it? [20:53] SPEAKER_02: Sure. You'd like to share that? [20:55] SPEAKER_01: Yeah, sure. So actually, if entrepreneurs have looked around and if you are audience, if you are [21:04] SPEAKER_01: if you are very involved in online entrepreneurs, you may know Sam Evans. [21:09] SPEAKER_01: And I took Sam Evans' course, I want to say almost five years ago now, [21:15] SPEAKER_01: and one of the things he repeated all the time, he wasn't just to me, he was to everyone, [21:19] SPEAKER_01: stop thinking so binary. And when I first started, I didn't realize how many judgments and [21:25] SPEAKER_01: limiting beliefs I held, and that's what he meant. The binary thinking, things are either black or [21:31] SPEAKER_01: white, that's the most unhelpful way of being that will stop you from succeeding. [21:37] SPEAKER_02: Because if it's a no in a sales or can't do this or it's a ceiling of some sort or perspective [21:45] SPEAKER_02: on something or self-limiting beliefs, right? I mean, these are very binary things, [21:53] SPEAKER_01: budget. Binders come all the time, assumptions. Also, and so doesn't have money, or they said, [21:59] SPEAKER_01: no, they might not, they must not like me. Those things are not true. What if those things [22:02] SPEAKER_01: were not true? The things that you believe, I don't mean you, but you as a general. The things that [22:09] SPEAKER_01: you believe that are absolute truth, you need to be prepared to question those things. How about [22:14] SPEAKER_01: the opposite or to be true? And then we immediately feel that resistance coming up. [22:21] SPEAKER_02: That's partly subconscious mind coming in as well. Absolutely. So the subconscious mind doesn't [22:27] SPEAKER_01: think binary or does it think binary? What the subconscious mind is, how we've been trained to think. [22:34] SPEAKER_01: So the binary thinking is an old programming in the subconscious, it doesn't pop up. [22:40] SPEAKER_02: Yes, I've heard a lot of Tony Robbins saying, our brain is a two million years old and we're [22:48] SPEAKER_02: built to protect ourselves from saber-tooth tigers. That's what we're always in a defensive, [22:57] SPEAKER_02: reactive mode. That's tough to change, isn't it? I mean, it really is. [23:04] SPEAKER_00: That's the survival brain. The subconscious, that's what he's talking about. The subconscious is [23:08] SPEAKER_00: there to protect you, but now if you want to thrive, you have to go beyond survival. [23:15] SPEAKER_02: Right. And so that's where you essentially help people make that step. [23:20] SPEAKER_00: Yeah, because we don't know that their judgment until someone points it out. We believe is reality. [23:26] SPEAKER_02: Yeah. Okay. Great. Okay. We're going to wrap this up. How can our listeners get whole of you? And [23:32] SPEAKER_02: is there anything you'd like to add before you leave us today? They can find me at juliachad.com. [23:39] SPEAKER_01: They can also download my book. All of the links are there. They can find this. Also my YouTube [23:44] SPEAKER_01: channel, I'm just search for julia chat, unless you can put a link down below. Yeah, that will [23:49] SPEAKER_01: put some links there. Yeah. And what I would like to say is that the last person standing wins, [23:56] SPEAKER_01: no matter what you're going through right now. So don't give up. So this could be in the industry [24:01] SPEAKER_02: you're in or this could be in life in general. Right. It applies to pretty much anything. [24:07] SPEAKER_00: We have to treat like medical school, right? They filter people out by making a super heart on [24:12] SPEAKER_00: the commercial is exactly the same. Oh, it's like trying to become a Navy seal. Exactly. You got [24:18] SPEAKER_02: it. You got to go to the test and the last one standing wins. Yeah, you don't have to do it perfectly. [24:23] SPEAKER_02: Feed a last one standing. It really isn't endurance game in a lot of ways. And one of the things I [24:28] SPEAKER_02: show cran was on the show one time she says being an entrepreneur is a lot being like an athlete. [24:33] SPEAKER_02: You have to be in physically good shape, mentally in good shape. It's much more than just being [24:38] SPEAKER_02: you know, there, operating. And I think that's a big part of it is the end game. [24:44] SPEAKER_02: Yes, absolutely. Okay, Julia, thanks for coming on the show. I've learned a lot about you.
