You would think the most brilliant of entrepreneurs would rarely face failure. After all, didn’t they just come up with one genius idea and money started flooding in? Not the case for Netflix co-founder, Marc Randolph. The truth? Marc was told, “That will never work,” more times than he could count.

And that allows you to bet on yourself and place bigger bets because you can be confident in your own abilities.” – Derrick Kinney “Once you’ve learned to really articulate the problem and see the problem clearly, almost without even thinking about it, ideas begin popping into your mind.” – Marc Randolph “And it was this realization at that moment that there was no easy way.

Each episode has simple, practical takeaways that can be easily implemented to grow your business]   When my guest Codie Sanchez left her job on Wall Street, people thought she was crazy. But Codie knew that true success meant building streams of income that don’t require you to trade your time for money.  So she decided to focus on a niche that few investors even think about: boring businesses. Today, Codie has built a portfolio of 25 “boring businesses,” like laundromats and car washes, that generate eight figures in passive revenue.

When my guest Codie Sanchez left her job on Wall Street, people thought she was crazy. But Codie knew that true success meant building streams of income that don’t require you to trade your time for money.  So she decided to focus on a niche that few investors even think about: boring businesses.

Don’t let your criticism hold you back   Quotes: “The bottom line is that was a snapshot in time of a company that added value that was there when people needed it.” – Derrick Kinney “Just because you look at the big CEOs and those ultra-billionaires that are out there and they appear to have all the money, that does not mean that you can’t have money as well.” – Derrick Kinney “You may not become the next billionaire, but if you can develop an idea or even do a side hustle and begin to add value to people’s lives, you can dramatically increase that lever of increasing your wealth, which allows you to impact your family and the world around you.” – Derrick Kinney “Because the best way to alter your attitude about the wealthy is to buy the stock of the company you’re criticizing.” – Derrick Kinney “Hear my heart on this: my desire is for each of you watching and listening to have the same opportunity to become wealthy as well, however you define that.” – Derrick Kinney “Don’t stand behind your criticism of them and let that hold you back from the potential that you have financially to impact your family and yourself and the world around you.

Brandon Voss explains how the FBI’s hostage negotiation techniques can help you become a more effective negotiator in your business and personal life. He shares tips you can use to find common ground and build trust so you have more influence. Brandon says negotiating takes practice, so don’t wait for a million-dollar deal to improve your skills!     What you will learn: How to establish common ground The accusations audit How to set the right expectations The power of silence It boils down to ego Negotiation is a practiced skill Discover the black swans Trust comes from feeling understood   Quotes: “Simply put, ‘you’re right’ is very dismissive and ‘that’s right’ is an indicator that someone feels bonded to you.” – Brandon Voss “What needs to be common is that both of us, or both sides, have a full understanding of what the other side is going through mentally, physically, emotionally.” – Brandon Voss “When human beings feel understood by another person or another entity, they immediately start to trust that person or entity and are willing to be influenced by it.” – Brandon Voss “Setting the expectation of, ‘I understand who you are and where you want to go,’ is much better than trying to set an expectation based on power or agenda.” – Brandon Voss “I view a successful negotiation as that the person who you’re negotiating with, whether you paid more than you wanted or not, they felt like they got what they wanted, and you were the tool they selected to help it happen.” – Derrick Kinney “I think the toughest thing about silence or using what we call ‘dynamic silence’ effectively, is just coming to grips with the fact that you will be actively forcing the moment of awkwardness where neither side knows whether or not they should speak.” – Brandon Voss “The person that goes out every day and is making it a point to influence through empathy and understanding and everything, the conversion they have is going to be way more effective than the individual that only uses it when they’re sitting at the table and there’s $50 million on the line.” – Brandon Voss “When we think we know all the answers, we’re less inclined to be empathetic.” – Brandon Voss “It’s very difficult for human beings to be genuinely furious and genuinely curious at the same time.

You want a money vote, which really denotes ‘I’m all in on the validity of this product or service.’” – Derrick Kinney “If you’re a great person, more money is going to even make you a greater person, because it’s going to allow you to do bigger and greater things. If you’re a bad person, money’s probably going to make you a worse person because you’re going to do bigger and badder things.” – John Lee Dumas “I think most people’s wealth is in direct proportion to the value that they give to this world.” – John Lee Dumas “Money is meant to be moved. It’s meant to be used. It’s meant to flow. And so many people just play the Scrooge McDuck routine, where they just put all their money in a bank account, in a vault, and close the door and it just sits there and it’s no use to anybody.” – John Lee Dumas “I decided when I got to a certain place in my business where I said, ‘Okay. I’m not going to work five times harder to make five times more money. I’m going to work at whatever level I want to work at on a day-to-day basis to keep at this level.’” – John Lee Dumas “Fulfillment means you’re waking up every morning and you are feeling excited and fulfilled about the action you’ll be taking that morning within your business and the results that’s happening.” – John Lee Dumas   Free Valuable Report for our Listeners: “3 Beliefs About Money Your Kids Should Learn That No One is Teaching Them” https://goodmoneyframework.com   Follow The Good Money Show on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/goodmoneyframework    Recommended Resources: Eofire.com The Common Path to Uncommon Success: A Roadmap to Financial Freedom and Fulfillment by John Lee Dumas (https://amzn.to/3jc4BQ2)

He went from making less than minimum wage playing minor league baseball to making a million dollars a month as an entrepreneur. Now, Ryan Pineda says the best investment he can make is himself. He explains his view that money belongs to God and how that belief allows him to take bigger risks and reap bigger rewards.

So, there’s nothing wrong with making money itself, as long as you’re doing it in a godly way, a moral way.” – Ryan Pineda “I’m not attached to my money. If I lose it, I lose it. It is what it is. That’s life. I can make more money again, but I can’t get more time back.” – Ryan Pineda “It’s interesting because that stewardship mentality, whether you’re a Christian or not, just allowing the fact that you’re not owned by what you own, you’re managing it and not being managed by it, I have seen help so many people be successful.” – Derrick Kinney “But would you rather play it safe and sit on the bench and just watch the outcome? Or would you rather get in the game and at least take a shot?” – Ryan Pineda “I’ve struck out so many times. I’ve made so many errors. I’ve gotten out so many times that failure just becomes normal. And you understand it’s part of the process for success.” – Ryan Pineda “I just want to improve every day in everything I do: my health, my companies, my relationships, my faith. I just want to get better every single day.” – Ryan Pineda “If I’m going to start a new endeavor or do something, I know exactly how much time of mine it’s going to take, and if it’s too much, I just don’t do it. Because I’m not chasing the money.” – Ryan Pineda “So, don’t be afraid of having too much success- that’s a good sign! It means devote more time to that.” – Ryan Pineda “I know that for me, the best investment is on myself. I would rather take $10,000 and go start a business or a side hustle than throw it in the stock market.” – Ryan Pineda “I will never sacrifice my goals because of the circumstance.” – Ryan Pineda   Free Valuable Report for our Listeners: “3 Beliefs About Money Your Kids Should Learn That No One is Teaching Them” https://goodmoneyframework.com   Follow The Good Money Show on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/goodmoneyframework    Recommended Resources: Flip Your Future: How to Quit Your Job, Live Your Dreams, And Make Six Figures Your First Year Flipping Real Estate by Ryan Pineda (https://amzn.to/2Sms8CJ)

Remember that video game, Tetris? Where you have the shapes down and they interlock.

And as long as I stay on model, I’m going to get the most I can out of my money, my time and my health here on Earth.” – Bill Perkins “So many people think about investing, and they get a return on their stock or their bond, but when you invest in people, there is an exponential return you can get, not just in belief, but actually the impact they can make on society.” – Derrick Kinney   Join us for a FREE webinar on the 7 steps of the Good Money Framework: https://goodmoneyframework.com/webinar   Free Valuable Report for our Listeners: “3 Beliefs About Money Your Kids Should Learn That No One is Teaching Them” https://goodmoneyframework.com   Follow The Good Money Show on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/goodmoneyframework    Recommended Resources: Die with Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life by Bill Perkins (https://amzn.to/3bmK9XH)

What you should say instead is, ‘how do I go through imposter syndrome?’” – Jon Acuff “Most people don’t understand they get to choose their thoughts. They think a thought is something they have, not something they hone.” – Jon Acuff “Some people let life happen to them, but it’s important to happen to life instead.” – Derrick Kinney “If you find something positive that you want to remember, that you want to repeat, give yourself a fighting chance of it working and tie it to a symbol.” – Jon Acuff “People who are always escaping the moment are only seeing the things that they didn’t do, not the things they did do.” – Jon Acuff “There’s no time suck like a fake problem.” – Jon Acuff “I like to tell people, when you ask somebody what they need, they become visible and valuable.” – Jon Acuff “If you work at a company with 10,000 people, you’re still the CEO of you.” – Jon Acuff   Free Valuable Report for our Listeners: “3 Beliefs About Money Your Kids Should Learn That No One is Teaching Them” https://goodmoneyframework.com   Follow The Good Money Show on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/goodmoneyframework    Recommended Resources: soundtracksbook.com

A chance to ask themselves, ‘What’s truly important?’ and, ‘Is this the best use of my time and my talents?’” – Derrick Kinney • “And what this good money message is all about is, first of all, a message to let people know that indeed, money is not bad.

Because you’re going to feel more fulfilled, more impactful, and really that you’re making a lasting difference on this earth.” – Derrick Kinney   Free Valuable Report for our Listeners: “3 Beliefs About Money Your Kids Should Learn That No One is Teaching Them” https://goodmoneyframework.com   Follow The Good Money Show on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/goodmoneyframework    Recommended Resources: • Goodmoneyframework.com • Do Good At Work: How Simple Acts of Social Purpose Drive Success and Wellbeing by Bea Boccalandro (https://amzn.to/3ucRRuA)

JV Crum III understands exactly what it's like to have everything—the house on the water, the dream car, money, status—and still feel unsatisfied. At 5 years old, he declared that he wanted to be a millionaire—and at only 25, he achieved that dream. In our conversation, JV candidly shares how his early financial successes didn’t give him the personal fulfillment he expected. He explains that the stories we tell ourselves can either limit or empower us. He says that when you’re clear on your purpose and bring consciousness to your business, you can make more money and find deep, personal satisfaction in the process. Then JV offers tips for wealth building and advises you to buy the big journals for your big thoughts!    What you will learn: You can make money and find fulfillment at the same time Don’t give up joy to make more money Clear purpose leads to criteria Potential is limitless The story you’re telling yourself is a lie  Become conscious to win Think of your competitors as collaborators  Buy the big journals   Quotes: “But I was beginning to think about, ‘I am going to grow up to be a millionaire. And I’m going to start taking care of that problem right now.” – JV Crum “Happiness and being a millionaire are unrelated. Happiness is about getting connected to yourself and being happy with you. And you can do that completely poor.” – JV Crum “I want to help people get rich by doing something that fulfills them and makes a difference in the world so that when they get to that rich milestone, it’s a series of milestones, they’ll be fulfilled from taking that journey.” – JV Crum “When you get clear about your purpose, now you can start creating criteria.” – JV Crum “All of us are Elon Musk. All of us are Steve Jobs. All of us have that in us, it’s whether we decide to live at that limitless level.” – JV Crum “What I find is most people who have a strong, ‘I want to make this conscious difference,’ very, very frequently have issues about being good enough.” – JV Crum “However your business is running, how many clients you have, is a result of those beliefs, identify and personal reality.” – JV Crum “You can make far more money living on purpose and bringing the conscious elements into your business than you’ll ever make not bringing them in.” – JV Crum “Make a decision today when you want to arrive at that destination. And realize that is only a milestone. Your first million will not be your last million.” – JV Crum   Did you know Derrick answers YOUR money questions LIVE on his podcast?

But say, ‘Well, here is a different way to think about it.’” – Ram Charan “It’s easier to see somebody else’s phenomenon than their own.

Jason Feifer shares how companies that have clear missions are better at navigating challenges and embracing change. If you’re wondering how your company can stand out in the marketplace, he says that first, you should make a great product, but it’s how you tell your story and relate to people that can make the difference. And if you want to build a long-lasting business, he says the key is to make difficult decisions early, while you still have control.    What you will learn: Giving back is good for business The difference between your What and your Why Differentiate with your story Sustainable companies can have larger impacts The importance of situational awareness Resistance is for losers Get to your first failure   Quotes: “This is about building long-term relationships, and that’s how you make money for a long time to come.” – Jason Feifer “Frankly, if you’re going to survive as a business in times like these, then you have to go beyond just offering a product or service. You have to be really meaningful to people in their lives.” – Jason Feifer “The companies that are really crystal clear about their mission are the ones that are going to thrive, and the other ones may not have a place in this new world.” – Jason Feifer “Can you identify what role you played in people’s lives and then pivot towards that? This is something I think that we all need to be doing all the time.” – Jason Feifer “So, the way that you differentiate is not just by the great product that you make, though of course, you should make the best product you can. But it’s also the story that you tell and the way you relate to people.” – Jason Feifer “You can’t do good with your company unless your company is profitable. Because otherwise it’s not there to do good with.” – Jason Feifer “The only thing you can do with that is to trust yourself and understand what you know and what you don’t know and continually strive to be better and to be open, I think, about what your own concerns are.” – Jason Feifer “When people resist a new innovation, the only thing that they really do, is they stop moving and they let everybody pass them by, because the future is not optional. You can’t opt out of the future.” – Jason Feifer “There’s an element of faith and risk that goes into anything, and you have to be willing to take that to achieve anything great.” – Derrick Kinney “You’re going to have failures along the way, so make sure you at least get to your first failure and then see how you react and see if you can get your company through it, because it’s going to happen.

What does a rich life look like? Ramit Sethi shares how having a clear vision of your rich life allows you to use your money on the things that matter most. He says it’s normal to make mistakes with money and that you should start building habits early so you don’t make the same mistakes with $1 million that you did with $100.

You will make mistakes with money Don’t take advice from losers Giving is a critical part of a rich life   Quotes: “In my experience, money does change people. It should. It has allowed me to dream bigger. It’s allowed me to take more adventures. It’s allowed me to give more.” – Ramit Sethi “Saving $3 a day is not going to change the course of your financial life.” – Ramit Sethi “If you begin your financial life believing that having more money will change you or will turn you evil, then you have effectively no chance of growing your financial wealth.” – Ramit Sethi “There are lots of reasons to stay or to leave, but simply saying, ‘I’m underpaid, please play me more,’ that’s not persuasive. It’s about demonstrating value and communicating this in the correct way.” – Ramit Sethi “You have a certain level of happiness, great, but there are other factors like life satisfaction that you can directly use money to influence.” – Ramit Sethi “Every one of us has money now, something that we love to spend money on.

You would think the most brilliant of entrepreneurs would rarely face failure. After all, didn’t they just come up with one genius idea and money started flooding in? Not the case for Netflix co-founder, Marc Randolph. The truth?

If you wait until you can see around the corner enough to be confident that your idea is going to work, I guarantee you’re too late.” – Marc Randolph “The most important skill of a good entrepreneur is, are they creative and clever enough to figure out ways to try their ideas that are quick, simple, and cheap?
