hey Tony guys here wanna pop in and share this message with you serious message today for Sunday Sunday sermon before my church service or before yours or maybe this is church service for you today but I want to talk to you again about the coming love but coming love and this what I had to realize because I was raised around religion the Christian religion I was raised around tradition and one thing I was see and my dad would joke with my mom about it sometimes but one thing I would see is I would see people go to church and they would be in church and they would catch the Holy Ghost they would be speaking in tongues they would be laid out on the floor and then would leave church and before they foot hit the ground they're cursing people out get to the red light and got to curse somebody out there fussing and fighting with this spouse they're flushing and fighting with with their children and did not become law did not embody what they said they believed and I had that test the other day and on road rage and somebody cut me off and having to respond just yesterday getting ready to come out the baseball park after my son's game and this guy was trying to kind of force his way in and I'm going this way and he's coming this way and I stopped and I just did like this come on you you got somewhere to be come on and in that moment I reminded myself I patted myself on the back and I said that's what it is to become loved and this is the thing is so many people come to me and they said Tony I'm looking for love trying to find love you know where it's love that men and women and then I asked have you become love have you become what you're looking for and if you have not become what you're looking for then you won't attract it I see so often you know it was a man or it's been men and women who told me oh I want a person who was in shape but that man or woman is not in shape so if you want somebody who's in shape and fit you have to become in shape and fit it so many women come to me and say Tony I want a man who lives their life the way you live your life and then I say well I don't want a woman who lives their life the way you live your life so you gotta realize in order to attract this certain type of man or in order to attract this certain type of woman you have to become that reflection you have to become loved because see as long as you are looking for love it will elude you but when you become love love surrounds you so what I mean by this is you got a look at yourself and you got to look yourself in the mirror and you kind of got to go down the list and I'm not saying oh I need to tuck my ear back oh I need to shave my nose in oh I need to shave my chin oh I need the left my butt cheek bones oh I need to get the wrinkle up before head I'm not talking about that type of mirror inspection I'm talking about the inner view not the interview the interview I'm talking about that introspection where you sit and you say you know what I need to work on my mindset I haven't I have a scarcity mindset I need to go to an abundant mindset so I need to go from instead of saying oh there's no good man I need to start saying there are plenty of good men and my man is coming to me there are plenty of good women and I'm going to meet her you have to shift your mindset you may have to shift your heart set your heart posture where you may say you know I'm looking at the world like everybody is against me like people are against me I need to look at the world like everything is for me like everything is working in my favor everything and it is opening up in my life I got to change the way I view the world and that's going change what I attract so you got to be able to say I'm abundantly blessed there are no ceilings on my success on my life on my love that I am able I am willing and I have the opportunity to live the life of my dreams you got a shift your mindset all the way now think about this and I see this when we are young and we're pure and then over time you go through things and it starts to change your personality you start to change the way you see the world but what you got to do is you got a pin pointing you got a pin point look at your belief system and what do you believe now when you go back and you look at the root of that belief you will realize that somebody happened to you somebody happened to you somebody came in your life and either somebody or something happened to you and from that moment forward it shifted your belief but that was one person and now you are sweeping over the world and everybody else you meet based on the belief that one person gave you you got to think about that take your time and get to the root of it because see you can't change the fruit yeah you got bitter fruit in your life you got bitter fruit in your life because you got a rotten root in your life so in order to change the fruit you got to address the root cause you got to get down to that problem to where you say you know what okay I see the world like this a lady wrote me she came to my singles workshop in Atlanta last Friday night and she sent an email and I never get to see the emails a lot of times in the inbox inbox at Tony Gosselin calm because it's so many I don't get to catch all of them but I just so happened to scroll that day and I never really do here recently haven't had time and I guess so happened to scroll and she wrote me and she said Tony she said Tony you know I didn't like what you said about locks and talking about dreadlocks it sounded very stereotypical and you know this and that and it was offensive but then I thought about it and I really heard what you said and I had to get out of my feelings and you weren't saying there was something wrong with my locs you were saying to enhance what I have to enhance myself and to step out with a confidence and a beauty and she's saying I appreciate that and I appreciate you keeping it real and see this is the thing this what happens all the time is somebody I'm always speaking out of love it may be direct it may be blunt it may be real but it's coming out of love because I want to see every single person that I can touch I want to see their life gets better because it's not about me and it's not about you I'm working for God so I have to answer to God so when I meet God and he says to me what did you do with the time that you had I want to be able to look back and say I tried to make the world a better place that I tried to live what I teach that I wanted to become the blessing instead of looking for blessings I wanted to become the blessing I wanted to become the example and then teach others how I found it and understand that I got a deliver it direct now this one thing that I have found is when I would share a message I would always share a message there was always this type of woman there was always this type of woman who would get offended and disagree with me and guess what the woman who wrote in to me was the exact type of woman she fit the bill perfectly and she may not even know it she may not even know that every woman who has disagreed with me had one thing in common with her and I'm not even along to share it on here just because the comments section get too toxic and it takes away from the message but every single woman I could look back at them and there was one thing that they had in common and that thing though see that was the fruit of it but when I look at the root of it it came from pain it came from feeling ostracize it came from feeling unheard it came from feeling overlooked it came from being hurt from being talked about from being mistreated and instead of healing and becoming loved and looking like the world is for me this is my oyster I can be and do anything I want to be and do this is my playground we assume the position and the posture of I gotta be in defense mode because everyone is against me everyone is attacking me everyone is judging me people are looking at me because of my dreadlock so because of my natural hair or because of my short haircut or because of my dark complexion or because of my gender as a woman and people are judging me and people are against me and I'm the lowest of the low on the totem pole and see it's certain words that you say to yourself it's certain things that you process it certain things that you believe based on some of the things you've seen and some of the things that you've experienced so it makes you believe that and that becomes your truth so when you go into the world you look at the world as this world I got a fight fight and claw to get what I want to become something and everyone is against me so instead of going in with a smile you go in with a frown and when you go in with a frown you don't even realize that that affects the way you dress the colors that you wear it affects where you go it affects the the look on your face whether you're smiling or not it affects the deferral in your brow it affects your energy it affects your handshake it affects the tremble in your voice the tone of your voice your rhythm and your cadence all of that is affected by what's going on in your mind so see you got to ask yourself have I become loved have I become loved or am i operating from self hate and see that's the hard part that's the hard part because a lot of times what we're operating from we don't want to label it for what it is it can be very well self hate but we don't want to say that because we don't want to believe that but yet we'll keep operating from it but we don't want to identify it and the reason why we don't want to identify it is because to identify it makes it a truth it brings it to the surface now it is a reality and the one thing about the truth is the truth requires change because it'll be like a siren going off and in order to silence the siren you have to make a change you got to change your mindset you got to change your thoughts you got to change your walk you got to change your talk meaning the way you see the world the way you move around the world you have to change that and so a lot of times we don't want to address the truth because we don't want to go through that change because that change is uncomfortable that change is painful because we get comfortable being in our bubble we get comfortable seeing the world through our lens that gives us a sense of comfort to say this is the world this is what it is this is all it can be everyone else is wrong I'm the only one that's right and we get comfortable there but you know what it's very scary it's very scary as a black man if I say to myself this world is mine and there's nothing standing in my way there's no opposition anything I want to be and anything I want to do I can do it if I want to become a self-made billionaire I can become a self-made billionaire I'm a god made billionaire if I want to become a God made billionaire I can become a God made billionaire if I want to own 50 companies I can own 50 companies if I want to have a hundred streams of income I can have a hundred streams of income I can be the number one in my field it's very scary to speak that type of abundance and blessings and opportunity over yourself because it's so comfortable to hide behind perceived limitations to say oh I can only earn X amount of money because I'm a woman oh I can only do so much because I'm black because I'm Hispanic because I'm Asian because I'm a man because I'm short because I'm too tall because I'm this body type I can only do this I can only have that I can only go here I can only attract this it's so much easier to put those limitations on yourself and to stay within those limitations and say you know this is the life that I have and this is the best that I can have because I'm a black woman because I'm a white man because I'm Asian woman because I'm a Hispanic woman because I'm a white woman because I'm a white man whatever it may be it's so easy to say in this arena in this field in it area these are my limitations and this is my ceiling this is as far as I can go but see that's not the truth it's only the truth if you believe it because I pull up every day beside people at the red light who don't have a home office and they may be a opposite race of me they may be a different race from me but they don't have a home office and they don't have a corporate office and they don't work for themselves and they don't have inventions and creations and they don't even have one company let alone have eleven or eight nine ten they have one streamer come in income not 50 and so I look at people who don't look like me who may be lighter than me may be taller than me may be more fit than me may be more educated than me but they don't have my lifestyle they don't have my lifestyle because they don't believe that is possible for them and I come from a race in a country whose legs were broken at the beginning of the race at the starting line my ancestors legs were broken and not only were they not put at the starting line they were put 50 meters behind you start 50 meters behind it we're gonna break your legs and the race is 100 meters but you gotta go 50 before you even get started so listen to me how can I be the great great grandson or great-great great-great grandson of a slave and be doing better than people who never had that history that legacy that lineage it's because a money said it's because of what I believe I can achieve it's because of what I believe I can accomplish and so my action follows and matches my belief my action actually surpasses my belief see whatever I believe I work twice as hard I worked like it's all depending on me but I know God is also working on my behalf so what that means is my faith is followed by work which the Good Book says faith without works is dead so that's the thing so if you say I believe that I can be married to a great man who loves and respects me where is the work where is the true belief that you truly believe that are you walking with a pep in your step and a smile on your face are you preparing your mind your body your spirit to receive what you say you can receive see that's what you gotta realize that's what you gotta realize and what you've got to understand is what work are you doing what work are you putting forward and are you becoming loved or are you sitting still and asking for the world to love you but you're not adapting and becoming who you need to become so think about this and go down the line go down the line and look at everything that you are do the work today do the work today you got some time before before work after work or you might be off do the work sit down you know get your workbook get your journal and go through and identify everything that you are every negative belief that's blocking your blessing the things that you believe for your comfort oh there there's no good or there's no good women nobody's gonna love me because people can't appreciate me oh I intimidate men i intimidate women oh I'm this I'm too educated people are intimidated by me because of my degrees and my extended degrees professional degrees whatever y'all call the the masters and doctorate I'm intimidating whatever you telling yourself oh man doesn't want me because of my body type my body shape a woman doesn't want me because of my height because of my body type my body shape whatever you telling yourself you gotta ask yourself is this true and if it is true what am i doing to change it and if it is if it is my truth is it truly the universal truth are you truly not wanted because of your height or are you being rude and nasty and condescending because you insecure because of your height and then that's projecting because of your body type because of your education or lack thereof because of your skin color because of your hair style because of whatever it may be when you believe that that's an issue then it blocks you because you shrink and you don't operate I'm tell you what happen even with me here on YouTube I came on YouTube and I had a belief that Tony you country so country is associated with country is anonymous with dong and so because you country people gonna thank you don and so I strung and I didn't I didn't want to be myself and I tried to talk proper I tried to come on here hi you know this is Tony Gaskins and I wanted to talk to you today about self-love now the thing with self-love is and I wanted to try to talk proper but trying to talk proper I couldn't show any personality because I don't talk proper in real life and what is proper because something that's somebody's language that somebody created and what I fail to realize and a lot of people don't understand this but the reason why I say my words the way I say my words some of my words is because my Southern drawl and it's because in the South there was slavery and their slaves you could not read and when you could not read because you couldn't read because you weren't allowed to go to school and then eventually somebody was allowed to go to school but even that young lady who was allowed to go to school her mom and dad probably couldn't read and write so she learned how to talk from them and they were saying words the wrong way but they were trying to say the words the way they thought they were heard but because they didn't know how to read the word you really don't know the pronunciation of the word so you saying it what you think you here master saying and then it gets passed down and so every generation is getting a little bit more education and then now it comes to a generation that says hey the word says strawberry but now that I can read I see it says strawberry my mama says scrawl berry because she heard master yell to the fear get me some strawberries but she heard scroll berries so she always said I want a strawberry and then now I can read and it says strawberry Wow so you see what I'm saying so I had to look back and realize Tony you are just a manifestation of everything that your people had to overcome so the way you told was inspired by your grandmother who's from Selma Alabama which was a very tough place to be raised and she was allowed to go to school but school didn't care for her come on in because the law said you could come on in but we ain't teaching you nothing and then my mother she told me she said Tony by the time you got to fifth grade you could read and write better than I could she said I went to school but I just was passed every year because all the teachers did not look like me and they didn't care anything about me so they didn't teach me anything they just give you a seat and move you to the next grade so she said that's why I went on my job at State Farm corporate office in Winter Haven Florida and she said that's why I stayed at the bottom for 15 years because I was so afraid to take the test to go to the next level because I would tell myself every day I'm not good at reading and spelling and writing and she said I told myself that over and over and over that I just was comfortable at the entry-level position but being there 15 years I could have climbed and went to the next level had I had the faith in myself to take the test because I actually can read and write that's how doing the job but see it's the belief so then it came to me my belief said Tony because your country you don't people gonna thank you dawn because you went to college eight years and didn't get your college degree people gonna thank you less damn and I've had people come to me with a college degree and what they earn in a year I earn double that in a month and those people with that college degree have said to me are you ever gonna go back and get your degree why don't you have a college degree don't you want to finish college and get a degree and I had to come to the place to where I had the confidence to say to do what what who's validation is that what is me having a degree gonna change in my life cuz I'm doing what I can do until I die as a coach as the author as a speaker I can do that until I die a degree it's not gonna make a publisher give me more money a degree is not gonna make anybody else pay more for my courses because they want they based off what they see I've done and what they see that I know so if you have a degree and what you earn in a year I've found a way to earn it in a month by believing in myself and believing that I have the ability to create believing that my father is a father of every nation has cattle on a Thousand Hills and is the richest of them all my father God in heaven has given me the ability to create wealth because he told me I can have the desires of my heart and so that as I think it so I am so when I believe that I saw the fruits of it but when I was believing that I needed to be validated by man and when I saw people that have bought into the lie that man's validation makes you somebody when man's validation means nothing unless you believe in you man's validation can benefit you it can help you don't get me wrong but you got to believe in you that what you have actually means something I've seen people go to med school graduate and then go become a painter I've seen people go to law school graduate pass the bar and then become a life coach so what that says to me is that your compass your compass is internal and that your love comes from within not from the out not from without not from all around you not from the people that are judging you not from those who are putting the test in front of you to validate your intelligence according to man's standards I remember hearing about him before who had a second grade education and some of y'all might drive a Ford you got a got you a Ford Taurus you got you a Ford Explorer got you 150 I remember hearing his interview and I heard a secondhand and here I didn't hear it myself with my own ears but I was told that Henry Ford was asked how did you build Ford Motors and you got a second grade education and he said well if I need an engineer I hit this button if I need a designer I hit this button if I need installer I hit this button so I put this system in place and I put people around me who know how to do what I can't do so because I believed in me and I believe I can start a car company and this person over here went to school to be an engineer but doesn't believe he can own his own company he believes he was trained and taught to study to pass a test and he never broke beyond that he never broke out of that box so that's all he believes that he's worth it is what man says he's worth all he believes is that if you give me a job I'll do it but he hasn't tapped into his mind to understand that he is the job that he can create the job that he can innovate that he can innovate the job and so what happens is for those who have been programmed and who have bought in and allowed a system whatever the system may be the the programming system whether it's the system that programmed you with your limiting beliefs about your gender about your race about your nationality about your age about your height your weight your complexion your education level there was a system in place that taught you how to believe about the person that you are today and unless you see beyond that unless you can really become loved meaning love yourself and everything that you are I was listening to a tape the other day I believe it was Earl Nightingale while I was working out yeah yeah that's another difference why are you listening to trap music on the treadmill I'm listening to something that's gonna move my life forward some of y'all have told me y'all listen to these videos why are you working out guess what it's gonna move your life forward turn that trap music off stop believing that you need a krump beat to give you the energy to workout know your mindset was there before a beat was ever made so I was listening the man said you know studies have shown and they've said that we only use 10% of our brain everything that you are today everything that you are everything that you've done is on 10% of your brain I believe somebody like a Elon Musk who created Tesla and SpaceX and he did PayPal I look at an individual like that and I don't know his lifestyle and I judge a man success based on his lifestyle how he treats his wife and his children but I look at somebody like that and I'm like this person created PayPal you know how much of a blessing PayPal has been to my life and then went on from there and created another thing and then another thing and then another and then and here's this person who does not work for the government who was an individual but got government contracts created electric-car and created SpaceX with got rockets and got the rocket boosters attached to where the government say we didn't even know we don't even know you we only know where do you come from who taught you who taught you how to code who taught you how to be an engineer who put that brain in you but we need you he'll go a contract you hear what I'm saying and it's all because of a mindset in a belief system to believe that you can do when I went on Oprah in 2009 in the video not on YouTube said only got to worry about looking for it because it was a live airing and it never aired again I was telling my story about being a toxic controlling no good man to my ex in college and I told his story at my own will for no money it was free of charge but when I sat down beside Oprah and I felt her spirit I say if she's a billion I can be a B now if she's a B now I can be a B there because I thought that when I sit next to a billionaire that i'ma feel like I'm in the presence of God like like this is like a Jesus in the flesh you know like I thought that that's what it'll feel like sitting next to a billionaire but it felt like I was sitting next to just the girl next door it felt like you know her spear and her energy just was was pure and and and passive and kind and just didn't have to fake you couldn't fake the energy that she had and it just was pure you know to be honest it was kind of like it felt like that the 8th grade girl who sits in the corner you know because she's quiet and shy because her family can't afford the Nikes so she gotta wear you know the airs and she doesn't she gets picked on and so she's become very humble and very quiet and if you talk to her she's the sweetest person you'll ever meet because of the humility that the world has put on her because of the way she's been seen or treated that's what Oprah's energy felt like it didn't feel like the star cheerleader you know who run the school the president of SGA Student Government Association for those y'all and go to school I only know that really what it means but didn't feel like the president of SGA so definitely to me didn't feel like what I thought a billionaire would feel like and I said you know what I don't know if my energy is like that I don't know if I come off that kind and that nice but I believe if she could become a being I could become a billionaire and it was that day that I said when I left there and I'm not even money motivated you know I like money but I don't worship money I don't try to save up millions of dollars and all that no I live my life I live my life because I know my father in heaven got more than I'm gonna need Ethan is in it's eternity so I ain't trying to save up here okay I'm passing down wisdom and knowledge to get money to my sons and worry about leaving them more time more time because I know it'll destroy you if you ain't have a hand in earning it it can destroy you so I made up my mind that day I say you know what if she could be a bit I could be now but I may do something totally different with my money it may be totally in I may be building schools I may be building Tony Gaskins academies around the country and I may be have a training system for teachers to come in and teach this entrepreneurial lifestyle to teach the real knowledge that you need to succeed in the world because I know in school I was learning about stuff that I don't use at all today don't help me at all and everything that I need to succeed today I never had a class on it in 13 years of school and eight years of college so what's that 21 years of school and never took a class that I really called on today that I called on today in my in my life and in my business so guess what Tony Gaskins academy.com that's the beginning that's the beginning one day that's gonna be a physical building in major cities and also some smaller cities around the country when I finally become a billionaire hi oven Wynn Elva what that Tony gasps academy.com and that's another lesson to you right here and you mean to teach on this lesson whatever your vision heals and it's the problem with a lot of with a lot of people cuz you might not think like this because you've never heard this but listen to me whatever your macro vision is there's a micro version of it so I want to see Tony Gaskins Academy the same way you see Kaiser University and DeVry and all of these universities that's stealing your money a lot of these schools stealing your money and giving you credits that when you go to Auburn University to get your masters they like hold on along the credits you got from up there South University or the vine university or Argosy when we encounter all them they gave you five credits for that class we give you three so you need to go get two more you see what I mean so them school they taking your money and got you in student loan debt and the credits don't even transfer all the way over but see guess what I'm gonna create a school you need no credits to transfer because what you learn you get going to the real world and earn and you be the boss of your business you know what I'm telling you and so the big version is the building with the blue sign Tony Gaskins Academy on the side of it just like you see the variety I'll for whatever and n ain't saying autumn school bad night so y'all forgive me cuz some of y'all got y'all's degrees and master's and dr. Greene from there now you mad with me and you in the comics right now you ain't heard nothing else I said since I talked about your little school so now you so hiding you in the comic calm down ain't talked about you looks cool okay and and you know how to put that looking down so you so you know that derogatory when people say oh I seen your little success so take that back and get on like your feelings listen where I'm coming from so that's the big vision so what's the small vision its online Tony Gaskins academy.com and guess what we got some free courses on there so that's that's what I see is finance AE is the free courses and I do discounts this courses that is $100 today that I've sold for $5 in December so that's my that's my financial aid and I've heard people say is no way in the world somebody to take a five thousand dollar course and make it five hundred dollars it's really worth $500 not at my Academy my life coach certification course I will have you understand that like coach the corner wise because she believed herself she's now training other coaches under my Academy and just this Saturday she training six coaches so she trained six coaches before that she trained three before that she changed two or three and she training these coaches and our training is five hundred dollars on Tony guys's Academy I teach it live in allowance she teaches live in Charlotte so guess what it's no secret you could do the math there's no secret what five times six is that's three thousand and she get a percentage and the company gets a percentage but guess what so in one day in one day of her training and being a blessing to others her investment in the course I don't even know it feels five hundred she could have got it on a cell that made it less than five hundred I don't know but her investment in that course is quadruple more than quadruple six tuplet I only know how you say what six will be six hundred percent return on her investment in the life coaching certification course in one day a 600 percent return in one day you see what I'm telling you so what I'm saying is is there are some people that's genuine that's doing it a different way so if the big version is the building the small version is Tony Gaskins academy.com so if your big vision is to own a strip mall the small vision is to get your credit the 680 get your income up and buy one building I saw I saw a little restaurant there are sixty thousand dollars if you want to buy that as a commercial property you got to put down twelve thousand dollars that might mean saving your tax return for three or four years or it might be getting your creditor over seven hundred getting you a car that's twenty five thousand dollar limit taking $12,000 off that car get that building start paying back down that car you see what I mean but it's a way to make it happen if you believe that's what you want and that one building gonna eventually lead to your strip mall because you building your credit you building your resume you building your equity and before you know it you're gonna be in Selma Alabama you're gonna see the strip mall come available and it's $800,000 and they say listen we're gonna need we're gonna need 160,000 down but you've been saving for the last ten years you've been putting up you've been putting up for last 10 years 15 years boom now you got your strip mall it might take you 15 20 years but now you got your strip mall it might be in Selma Alabama but that whole area that's where they go shop it at that strip mall now guess what not you passing it down now this in your name and it's passed down to your children but it's because you believe see that's the thing is most people don't become loved when I say become love this bigger than just love and relationships just about your life I'm on here and I talk to you about love relationships because that's what I'm called to but at the same time I can also teach you how to earn millions of dollars from your gifts because that's what I've done and that's why I create Tony Gaskins academy.com because that's what God put in store see God put in store he put in place for every single person to be able to be a small business see a lot of people got to twist it and they think that you got to build a big business you got to build a big business and you got to have a bunch of employees but see the way I believe it is my quote unquote employees will be independent contractors that they need to have their own LLC so that they can not only work with me you're not working for me you're working with me but you also going to be able to get other clients just like me because you have started your business so back in the Bible days you had everybody was doing something did I make the shoes you make the belts you make the kilts you make the hats you make the rugs you make the nails you make the helmets you make the houses you make the cause you make it is you see in Bible days everybody doing something so you've got your thing and then you walk down the line at the market and you support everybody else you ain't got no staff your staff is your family and they learn how to do what you do and yeah you make it nail somebody that's gonna start making the nails but guess what it's enough to go around because it's so many people everybody making and reproducing so it's so many people you could make nails over there making nails over here we are eating but see it's about a belief system today we believe we got to go get a degree and go work for somebody for the rest of your life and I read I read a meme the other day say you'll work 40 years for the rest of your life and only get two weeks vocation you'll work 40 years for somebody else get two weeks vacation a year retire and barely got enough to live comfortable in retirement but then we'll give up on your own business in a year because it didn't retire you but you'll work for somebody else 40 years you said I mean so when you become loved you start to see your life different you start to see the world different you start to say you know what I don't have to just work for somebody else I could create something that's gonna be paying me so that even if I keep this here job I didn't create it something over here that's attached to my gifts that's good pay me and that's gonna show my sons or daughters what they also can do with their natural gifts and I'm gonna provide and take care of them so that they can be even better than me so they don't have to go through what I had to go through they could do even better you see what I'm saying but see it's all come down to what you believe and then whatever you say you believe you got to figure out what the work looks like because with every belief there is a work belief is faith so with faith there must be work for every faith set of faith there must be a set of tools a set of work that goes with it so you say this is what I believe and guests you may have to get the help on about so many audiobooks I'm listening to the ebooks and I might get one sent inside of it that inspires me that give me something oh and let me tell you something let me tell you something on break I'm not bragging to you but Tony gasps is academy.com its the only version you didn't guess how many students in now last I checked was 23,000 students I need to go back it might be about 24,000 students how many students go to your college how many students went your college my college we had 16,000 students my college we had 16,000 students and I'm not on a mailing list so they came so they're not even sending me emails of courses that I could take and the way colleges work it is not even for your benefit every single college should be open for everybody to where if you got $300 $600 $1,000 you can come and pay for this class and get in this class when you go to college what they what they do you got to fill out an application you got to get transcripts from high school you got to get transferred from your last college and all of that I didn't try to go back to college I ain't got the time because they keep telling me to go to this school in that school to get the to get the transcript so I'm like man listen yeah I'm trying to come take one class so I can see if your professor know what he talking about in his marketing class cuz I haven't been marketing in the real world and I just want to see if it's something they teach in this Hill School that I haven't learned in the real world see if it's something I can add to my arsenal of marketing so in just classes $300 I'll pay you not at Hunter schism sir no sorry but we need to call you high school we need to call you last two colleges you went to we need to do all of this we need to get them on the phone we need some references we need all this I'm like see let me go on back over here Tony Gosselin Academy and create the class and people come and they taking my life coach certification they take my life course certification and sometimes people write in and they'll say is this class accredited I mean is this certification accredited and what they don't even realize is that accreditation does not exist in coaching because coaching is not regulated because coaching is not diagnosing or prescribing so you can start a company and say that you accredit life coaches and if you got the money to make your website look nice enough people going to believe that your company accredits life coaching courses and courses will pay you to be accredited just because of the way our world is the way our society is we feel like we need a stamp is people that email then I read all the customer service emails and they will email and email and email and email about a certificate and it's like listen you get a certificate when you finish the course automatically this ticket just got downloaded but why does that piece of paper mean so much to you I don't have a certificate and you just took my course you've never seen my certificate and you just took my course what I'm trying to help you understand is you got to believe in you you got to believe that you deserve love that you deserve success that you deserve to be your own boss that you deserve to create your own life that you deserve to have your dreams come to fruition you have to believe in you stop waiting on validation see everything you do so you can go and get trained you can go and take the life coach certification but don't let it define you get that certification and then innovate like coach the corner wives she took the certification and then she said Tony can you come to Charlotte and train coaches here because I got coaches that want to become coaches so can you come here can I book you to come here I say says it's gonna it's gonna cost a pretty penny to move me out my seat from being at home with my family I'm home with my family now so if anything happened anything pop off they come right in my home office and on these two glass French doors right there that's sometimes you hear my son come through so but I said why don't you took the course you coaching clients you host events you speak at events why don't you be an instructor of the course and we just have a percentage split she said wow I can do that but guess what I can't do that for anybody I haven't done that for anybody else it's because she took initiative and she showed me she showed me she didn't even ask me to could she do that I presented that because of the work that she did because she believed in herself and then she took and now the her training is different than my training she's innovating in her training they do some other stuff that I don't do in my training so she's not safe she's not saying I'm a Tony Gaskins pawn on my Tony Gaskins replica I'm Daquan a wise and my last name is wise so I'm gonna create and so therefore taking create and then what happens from there is she took and created another addition that is the the life coach booster that's $200 that when you finish the certification she walk you through every little step you need to do but she walk you through it hands-on I teach about it in my training but she gonna help you do it walk you through it for additional $200 guess what if you took the course for 500 and then paid her 200 to walk you through us 700 several hundred dollars and most of these courses today that's teaching the amount of information I'm teaching and is 1502 $5,000 or more so you still less than half the price and you know why be again because I'm not in it for the money because I ain't in it the scam people because I believe in a different structure in a different movement and doing things differently because I'm not trying to follow and copy what the internet marketers say they say hey all your stuff to cheat everything need to be $2,000 and up no go ahead you got out of that go ahead you got it I'm gonna do it this way you see what I'm saying because I believe that I can shape and I can shift that I can be a trailblazer but I am from Portland that I could be a trendsetter somebody sent me a video today of a young man who was on YouTube and he copying every word I say that they waited to I watched through this video that they were flooded it was almost like a caricature like somebody imitating you he copy every word I seen somebody sent me a post other day it was a guy went on Twitter and it was a video idea like how to know a man is interested in you or something like that or how to know a man not in it it was a guy watch the entire video this was a different guy now these two guys I'm telling you about not a seen fit that he got my sister she showed me everybody that she bumped into and this guy watched the video and he took notes and then he tweeted it as if it was his lessons and all of these blog sites and different sites picked up the tweet and shared it and it got one on my saw had like eight thousand likes and a whole bunch of comments and guess what the guys in the comments was hating they was hating so I was going right oh thanks for watching my video but the guys will hate so hard I say and let me people know this gun for me I'm gonna let him take that he okay you want it you wanna copy the message take the heat that come with it now you get to see what it feel like but guess what I had the belief to believe that I could shift the culture that I could impart what God gave me and that it could help I believe that without a degree I believe that without a mentor I don't have a mentor I don't have a single mentor never had a mentor I didn't take a course to learn how to do what I do I just believed that I could create so I became loved that's what I mean self love that's that's what self-love is self love is self belief it's self confidence but it is tied in with humility so see let me help you understand it the self love said I could create Tony Gaskins academy.com the self love said I could create my mentor dot life I created my mentor dot life and guess what it's coaches that are writing me and saying hey I've been booked again and again and again that was the vision but see now here is where the humility comes in at when the developer was building my mentor dot life you know the monthly price that they had on their to be a coach on the site they had it at $200 they had it at $300 a month because they looked at it as if if you're a life coach what is it to invest $300 a month into your business business expenses are crazy a business is an investment so what is it to invest three hundred dollars a month that's only $3,600 a year they of another race they of another culture that's how they culture see stuff that's how they racy stuff I know who I'm working with and I understand scarcity mindset so I understand it's gonna be people come from where I'm from come from that's gonna be arguing about 1999 Oh 1999 what do I get for that I have people ask that quick what do I get for that and guess what get on them and get a booking in the first week and a rate is fifth at all the owl or something and not even double in a trial period the first month is free on my mentor not like the first month is free and then guess what when you get booked all your money go to you see that's what a humility come in they say Tony why don't you take a percentage I said maybe down the line maybe down the line years down the line you know take ten percent or something if I feel it but I say right now I just wanted to be a space for coaches mentors consultants to be paid to operating their gifts live their passion and I wanted to be lucrative for them I'm gonna spend thousands of dollars of my own money to market the site and I'm gonna market the site with my brand with my following my influence and I'm gonna send thousands of people to that site every day and these coaches if they take the time and they invest in themself and they get a nice headshot they write a full bio they write they quote and they write three or more blogs those gonna be the coaches that eat and it's gonna be lucrative forum that's what I wanted to create self love and humility if you can become loved you will attract love everything open up in your life and you'll get what your heart desires it is Tony Gaskins god bless you the Lord and called me over our yet so I got the end under our God bless you we'll talk soon
