The Tai Lopez Show

The Tai Lopez Show is now available on Soundcloud. Check it out here: Soundcloud.com/TaiLopezShow “Good eating lifestyle is not a diet, because it’s not limiting. It’s a lifestyle” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) The Gracie Diet is an eating lifestyle, developed by the Gracie family of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fame, and designed to combine the correct foods with each other, to give you energy and health to accomplish what you want in life. But even more fundamentally, in this episode I talk about why it is important to be willing to experiment. Those who have done incredible things have always been willing to experiment, to try things out and see if they work, and whether that’s diet, lifestyle, habits, or anything else, everyone is different, and so experimentation is often the only way you can know if something is right for you specifically. “When starting a new lifestyle, take it slowly and in stages” -Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Points to Keep In Mind The fuel you put in your body is going to affect your performa

The Tai Lopez Show is now available on Soundcloud. Check it out here: Soundcloud.com/TaiLopezShow “Take shortcuts anytime you can, and shortcuts often mean learning from others” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) A lot of people have negative connotations around money. We hear that money is the root of all evil. And yet, money is absolutely required in order to do good in the world, to not be a burden to others, and to live a fulfilled and happy life in the modern age. Get rid of any preconceived notions you may have about any inherent evil in money. If you want to do good in the world, get rich. In addition, today I talk about how you can use mentors as shortcuts in life, why family advice is often bad, what it means to be penny-wise and dollar-foolish, and how fear can be a powerful motivator to drive you to success. “Use fear as a motivator to succeed” -Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Points to Keep In Mind Quality over quantity, in everything you do Family will often have perverse incentives for their advice, built

“When it comes to marketing, always be critical of yourself and ask if you would actually click/buy it” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Today I’m going through my top mentor tips for how to get more out of life through business, health, and relationships. Everyone wants a different mix of all three, and I’m giving you the strategies and ways of behaving that will get you ahead in any one of these. If you’re an entrepreneur, don’t discount the value of your social life. Make sure you’re hanging out with people, getting to know them, and developing deeper and better relationships all the time. But also take good care of your personal financial situation. Those who don’t make finances a priority become a burden to other people, so it’s actually selfish not to look out for your own financial well-being. Learn how to get an edge in finance, health, and relationships on this episode of The Tai Lopez Show. “Life is all about reacting to stress, and if you can be cool under pressure, you will do well” -Tai Lopez (click

“Be nice to people, but don’t be a pushover” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Sometimes, you just need to stand up for yourself. But we’re all raised in such a way that we tend to think that it’s always wrong to stand up for ourselves, to push back, or to be confrontational in any way. The truth is that, throughout history and today, being non-confrontational has been the cause of a lot of extra suffering. So stand up for yourself to avoid additional frustration and suffering in your own life! A good rule to keep in mind is, in every interaction with anyone, start out nice, and then reciprocate whatever they give you. So if they continue to be friendly and nice, that should be your response. But if they get aggressive, you just might have to as well. Learn more about how to confront someone, how to stand up to bullies, and why you shouldn’t be a pushover, on this episode of the Tai Lopez Show. “Always start nice with people, and then reciprocate whatever they give you” -Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Points to Keep I

“Often when it comes to education, you get what you pay for.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Work until what once seemed expensive now seems cheap. This is the name of the game, and the process of continuously leveling up your life through self-improvement. That process never ends, and no matter how much you learn, there will always be more to discover, to learn, and to improve. At the end of the day, with most things in life, you simply get what you pay for. So be careful about cutting corners and trying to do things the cheap way. Often when you get something for free, free is the value you put on it, and so you don’t put in the effort that you would have if you had paid for it, and therefore you get minimal results. Learn how to continually level up your life through investing in yourself through education and training, so that eventually what seemed expensive or difficult becomes cheap and easy. “Formal education will make you a living, self education will make you a fortune” -Jim Rohn (click to tweet) Poin

“If your life is full of people taking advantage of you, at some point it becomes your own fault.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) In our society, being humble and quiet is something we’re often told be should do. We’re brought up this way as children, and it carries into our lives as adults. Today’s episode is all about when that advice is wrong, and how it might be holding you back. Just remember, pacifism doesn’t always work, and has historically been the wrong approach at times. Often, the correct response is to stand up for yourself and fight back. You don’t want to start fights, but sometimes you need to finish them, and that’s what this episode is all about. “Happiness is primarily an outgrowth of having the right social circle.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Points to Keep In Mind People tend to think you need to be humble and quiet, but sometimes that will lead to you being taken advantage of Pacifism does not always work, and history shows it Happiness is primarily an outgrowth of having the right soci

“When you’re creative, there’s always a way to thrive.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Today’s episode is a mashup of several topics that all work together. I’m talking about Trump’s upcoming inauguration, the process of creating more jobs in an economy, why small businesses are responsible for the majority of both job creation as well as job destruction, how to respond to haters, as well as how Trump has responded to Alec Baldwin and SNL’s skits about him. The circus company, Ringling Bros., just went out of business, and looking at their strategy it’s not difficult to see why: They simply didn’t innovate or stay cutting edge. Have you ever seen a viral video or social media post from them? They have the ability to create incredible content, yet they didn’t stay cutting edge enough to use it effectively. So listen to this episode to get my roundup of thoughts on Trump’s inauguration, where jobs come from, Ringling Bros., how to respond to haters, and Alec Baldwin’s Trump impersonation on SNL. “Entrepreneurs an

“Be a hero by seeing what others choose not to see.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a good day to reflect on what the definition of a hero is, and who is or can be a hero. To me, the definition of a hero is somebody who can see ahead of the curve; somebody who can see things that other people either cannot, or choose not, to see. When the status quo is strong in culture, such as segregation was during the days of Martin Luther King Jr., it can be extremely difficult to see past preconceived notions of how things should be. But that’s exactly what makes a hero, and that is what we should be striving for in every individual area of our lives. So take a careful look at the status quo, and where it might be wrong. Examine your life, and work to take it to the next level in every area. Work towards becoming a hero. “Life is like a videogame: Always be working to go to the next level.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Points to Keep In Mind Heroes die too early, compared with all the idiots

“Congruency and ease of use is the most important thing in email marketing” - Tai Lopez Email marketing is far from dead. In fact, it’s still one of the most powerful ways to connect and communicate with a consumer. But too many people don’t know how to do it right. Or sometimes they get part of it right, but they create friction for the reader in understanding the content and taking the action that they need to take. Today I’m walking through a very common mistake: The lack of congruence in email marketing. I’m showing you examples of the problem, so that you can avoid the same mistake yourself, and see better results in your email campaigns. Points to Keep In Mind Email marketing is still one of the most powerful forms of communication. But it’s easy to make mistakes You can use templates, but they often give the email a more formal, less personal feel, which can be harmful Create a user experience that flows for the user, and always takes them exactly where they would expect If your user flow is confusing

“Common sense is not common. It’s a skill acquired by practice.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) We throw the term “common sense” around a lot, and most people think, since it’s common, they must have it. The truth is very few people do, and those who do have acquired it through focused study and practice. In this episode, I’m showing you the 3 character traits that will help you succeed in life. These are the three traits that will allow you to always be able to make money, always be able to find a job, and always be in high demand. Because, contrary to common perception, common sense is not very common. “There’s a time to zone in on the details, and a time to zone out on the big picture.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) The 3-Points: Common sense is acquired, so study and practice it. You need it, so work for it But also understand how to zone out on your entire life, to understand everything that is going on around you and take stock of your situation Have the ability to zone in on very specific problems and ta

Most people in the world have the wrong mindset toward what is holding them back. In the majority of cases, you’re not being held back by the government, the system, or any of the things that people most commonly like to blame. You’re being held back by you. While there are certainly instances where this is not the case, they are rare, and the idea that you are responsible for your own destiny should be freeing, and exciting to you! While it’s easier to blame all of your problems on other people and other things outside of your control, the better, more freeing and more practical route is to take responsibility for your life, identify the things that you can change in your life, and then get to work changing them! Points to Keep In Mind It’s rarely the government that is holding you back 9 times out of 10 its people who hold themselves back It’s easier to take the victim route rather than taking responsibility, which is why most people do it Government isn’t the primary reason you will fail or succeed. You a

I spoke at Harvard University last week and it was an extremely humbling experience. Not everybody gets to speak at the top university in the world. Yet, leading up to my talk in Cambridge, all I could think about was the fact that I myself was a college dropout. And make no mistake about it, college dropouts are foreign to Harvard. Between Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Matt Damon and others, Harvard’s dropouts have been more successful than most other colleges' graduates. Which leads to a question that I am always asked. “Tai, should I go to college?” In the video I’ll explain how you should really approach college. And when should you get a degree versus when you should drop out, or skip it altogether.Learn more about your ad choices.

https://www.tailopez.com/socialmediaprogram I have a simple goal for myself. I want to make 300 people insanely wealthy. And I’m not talking about making people who already have a ton of money wealthier. I’m talking about helping ordinary people create financial independence from themselves. That’s because I want to help the people who were just like me. The ones who don’t come from a family of money and aren’t lucky enough to have received an inheritance. And I know this sounds like a bit of a lofty goal, creating 300 wealthy people… But the truth is, I have already been creating wealthy people through my programs for years now. And with the evolution of snapchat, people write me so much that I actually get to document people’s progress as it’s happening. For example, two months ago I first opened my Social Media Marketing Agency course where I teach people how to get businesses to pay you to help grow their social medias. This was the first time I opened up the curtains to how I grew my YouTube and Facebook

"When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail." This is one of my favorite quotes because it illustrates the way the majority of people think. Before I opened up my real estate course, with my business partner Cole Hatter, many people I spoke to about real estate equated Renting a house with being poor, and buying a house with being rich. But if you want to separate yourself from the masses, you have to have to think differently then the masses. Because the reality of the situation is that there are many celebrities who rent their homes as opposed to buying them. So do they rent because they can't afford their homes? Of course not. So when should you buy versus when should you rent? What do you do with your income? Where do you place it to get the highest rates of returns? In this video I talk about the secrets of how the wealthy invest their money.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoicesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rihanna is one of the most recognized figures in the world. And if you ever have the pleasure of meeting her, it won't be hard to tell why. When I meet individuals with the accomplishments of Rihanna I try to think extremely practically. So after my conversation with her, I had these two thoughts: 1) Why is Rihanna so loved? 2) How can I apply that to my own life? The answer to why Rihanna is so loved is evident in our conversation. Despite her popularity and riches, Rihanna is still extremely humble. And this is exactly what sets her apart from most other celebrities and people in general.Learn more about your ad choices.

There's so much misconception about the word hustle. At times hustle is extremely necessary. This is especially true when you're starting out on your entrepreneurial journey. But hustle is a means to an end, it's not a goal. Your goal should be to create a sustainable business model, that if you put a great team behind it, can run without you being in the day-to-day. Having a sustainable business will allow you to spend time with your spouse, your kids, your friends and your loved ones. You'll also have time to hit the gym, a place that you've neglected for so long. Your goal shouldn't be to purely hustle. Your goal should be to live a long, healthy and fulfilled life. Set your sights on living that life instead, although, you might have to hustle at times to get there...Learn more about your ad choices.

Why are you so afraid? So timid? So fearful? If you're anything like me when I first started out, you feel these emotions. But have you ever asked yourself WHY? Maybe it's because you feel that you don't know enough. However, in my experience, most businesses don't know what they're doing either. So lucky you! Warren Buffett once said that he too used to be scared of the real world when he was in college. But when he graduated, he said, he soon realized that most people in the real world were rarely qualified to do anything BIG. And that's the sad truth about business. People are either too lazy to become knowledgable in their field, or they are simply just misguided. But if you put in the effort that the other 99% of people don't, then you WILL stand out from the crowd.Learn more about your ad choices.

How do you build a business with little or no experience? It’s simpler than you may think. If there’s one thing that I’ve learned in my 20+ years of entrepreneurship, it’s that most businesses are bad at this one key thing. And that key thing is marketing. You see, most businesses spend way too much time bettering their product. And they don’t spend enough time making sure that their product is actually known. Now I’m not saying that building the best product is a bad thing to do. But it leaves a vulnerability in many businesses, if equipped with the proper know-how, could potentially earn you a lot of money. Check out how Joe Soto built a 7-figure businesses using this one simple strategy.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoicesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You want to be an entrepreneur? You shouldn't be. Well, at least you shouldn't optimize for it. Your main goal should be to live a good life and then everything else should only support that vision. Entrepreneurship, or whatever else you do for your career, is just a means to an end. Far too many people often focus on the wrong things, and then before they realize that they got burned, it's too late...Learn more about your ad choices.
