As an entrepreneur, we have a unique capability that few others will ever be able to replicate.

We are in control of our own financial destiny.

Now for some, this is daunting and has always been a struggle factor.

But for the few business owners who really embrace this, they will be their own economy.

That means, no matter what is happening around you, what industry fails and how many clients leave, you will be able to create cash flow as you need it. Sound like a crazy idea or a relief?

After twenty years in business, the current COVID climate is actually my third industry shakeup that I’ve experienced (the first one slowed me down, the second one paralyzed and almost broke me!) But this third industry upheaval is very different now that I understand how to be my own economy.

On Amplify Your Success Podcast episode 185 I’d like to inspire you to access a new paradigm around money and finances.

Be sure to join the Amplify Your Success Community to access additional training on this topic!

 

Key Takeaways

  • How you need to think if you are going to create your own economy (this is significant, especially if you tend to have fears and doubts.)
  • What Imago Therapy is and why their “bridge” concept is invaluable to be able to implement the second step of Becoming Your Own Economy.
  • What a UPA is and how this is the key to turning on cash flow as you desire.
  • My favorite Revenue Rush strategy that ANYONE can use in 7 days or less to boost cash flow.
  • What it means to be a part of the Rising Tide (and why this theory accelerates results so effortlessly.)
  • Two factors of financial prowess that will make or break your ability to thrive in turbulent times.
  • The single most valuable superpower to have during COVID-19 or any economic upheaval.

Mar 23, 2020

Our subconscious mind plays an important role over every decision we make, every goal we set, and every action we take (or don’t take.) In my 20 years of business coaching, I have witnessed talented entrepreneurs sabotage their success simply by allowing their limiting beliefs to make their growth decisions.

One of the most valuable tools any entrepreneur or online business owner can add to their toolset is the ability to reprogram their subconscious mind to replace limitations and fears with empowering thoughts that allow you to achieve unprecedented success.

On Amplify Your Success Podcast episode 171, I’m joined by Carl Hunter, the creator of an amazing new MindPower Acceleration Technology™ called MindFlavors®. Inside this conversation, Carl reveals the keys to using easy daily habits to train your mind to achieve your biggest goals (you’ll love it!)

>> Why subconscious resistance is a key factor in your motivation or procrastination.

>> How reprogramming your subconscious mind works to keep you from sabotaging your action steps and growth plans.

>> A super simple writing process to do each day to reprogram your subconscious mind (and it works, FAST!)

 

About The Guest

Carl Hunter is an artist, entrepreneur, transformation coach and subconscious mind programming expert. He is also the creator of the amazing new MindPower Acceleration Technology™ called MindFlavors®. He began the self-development journey as a young child by seeking ways to improve his own behavior in order to get better results in all areas of his life.

He started pursuing it seriously in 1987 when he discovered a powerful method to reprogram his own subconscious mind. This led to him achieving his dreams by the age of 31, of traveling around the world, getting into the diamond business, and moving to the Virgin Islands where he spent many years enjoying the tropical island life.

In early 2015, while continuing to pursue faster and more powerful methods for transformation, Carl discovered some ancient power secrets. Using these new-found ideas, he invented this revolutionary technology that has trumped all of his previous techniques for harnessing the power of our subconscious minds.

Building your business brand and positioning your authority takes a significant amount of time, energy (and money!)

In a crowded market, there’s a significant difference between being an expert, being an influencer and being an ICON.

An expert offers massive value but can be hard for a prospect to understand their unique value proposition.

An influencer is highly visible but also is one of many “influential” business leaders in a market. This type requires a lot of marketing effort to stand out and be seen – aka its highly competitive.

But an ICON tends to rise above the noise and become the hub of the whell. ICONs set trends for the industry and inspires the crowd to get on board.

My friend Steve Olsher is a visionary who has a knack for taking big risks that propels his brand to ICON level. He joins me to share how he continues to reinvent himself and catapult his brand to the peak of the industry.

Have you ever wondered why some people are like energizer bunnies, with limitless energy that you don’t have?

Or perhaps you don’t understand why your team can’t implement as fast as you get ideas?

I discovered Human Design ten years ago at a time where frustration was high and my motivation was at an all-time low. What I came to quickly realize is I had been trying to build a business with someone else’s design…and I was missing out on all of the great synergy of using MY design.

On Amplify Your Success Podcast episode 162 meet Chetan Parkyn who for 25 years has been helping business owners around the world learn how to activate their most aligned self, using this profound tool called Human Design. I can’t WAIT to share this episode with you!

Be sure to join the Amplify Your Success Community – we’ll have a conversation about which Human Design you are and how you best make decisions!

 

Key Takeaways

>> What Human Design is and how discovering this teaching put Chetan on his path.

>> What the 5 Human Design types are (Chetan and I both share our types and how its helped us be more fulfilled by living from that design!)

>> Chetan reveals what often impacts someone the most when they don’t understand their Human Design (like when a Projector hangs out with Generators and thinks that’s how business success is supposed to be for them!)

>> What the profile numbers mean and how they can give meaning (and clarity on why your life has taken some twists and turns!)

>> What you can learn about the BEST WAY to make decisions for YOU (so you eliminate procrastination, doubts, and fears and feel more confident.)

>> Chetan’s recommendation on how to use Human Design to up-level success in life, finances and business.

 

About The Guest

Chetan Parkyn was schooled in England, and traveled the world as a troubleshooting mechanical engineer and ocean-diving engineer. In India, in 1979, while with the enlightened mystic Osho, his abilities to read for people surfaced when his gifts were recognized by two savants, who told him to “get ready” for a system that would come into his life and that he would introduce to the whole world.

Chetan was encouraged to use his gifts to “Read” for people, and he commenced reading hands, cards, the IChing, astrology and other esoteric systems to prepare himself for the “new system.”


In 1993, he was introduced to Human Design, recognized right away this is what the savants had foretold, and has studied, read and taught it worldwide ever since.


His first book : Human Design, Discover the Person You Were Born To Be was first published in 2009 by Harper Collins UK, and is now available in 12 language versions, reaching best-seller status in Chinese, Russian and Bulgarian. Two more books on Human Design, The Book of Lines, and 21st Century View of the IChing, and The Book of Destinies, Discover the Life You Were Born To Live are already being translated and released in other language versions.


25 years after being introduced to Human Design, Chetan continues teaching Human Design online and in person, often with his wife and partner, Carola Eastwood, and resides in San Diego, California.
