We revere these people as being born with something that simply sets them apart. But the truth is that self-confidence can be learned, practiced, and perfected, and Yayah is here to tell us how! Yahya talks about the three steps towards building massive self-confidence, which are self awareness, self acceptance, and finally self love. These three ingredients, implemented and practiced in the right way, are the perfect trifecta to bring your confidence levels up, and help you be able to project that confidence to the world, to become more charismatic, and become a better leader. This episode is an extremely practical one for anyone who wants to do great things with their life. Leadership is essential to doing amazing things, and self confidence is one of the most important steps towards becoming a great leader. So listen up and take notes on this episode of the James Swanwick Show! “When you start to compare yourself to others, catch yourself doing it, and ask yourself what you have that you’re really proud of.” - Yahya Bakkar(click to tweet)Key Takeaways:

Click here.Show Notes: JamesSwanwick.com/210“When you pay for something, you take it more seriously, put more value on it, and get more out of it.” - James Swanwick(click to tweet)Why would you pay to get rich? It seems like going the wrong direction, doesn’t it? Seems like to get rich, you should save, save, save, right? But that’s not how humans work, as it turns out. The reason you often need to pay in order to get rich or see success in any endeavor is because when you pay for something, you instantly put more value on it. Because you have invested, and have “skin in the game,” you will now take your training or whatever it is far more seriously. You will show up and be focused, and really achieve what you set out it. The reality is that all of the information you need to be wildly successful is available to you on youtube and the rest of the internet. It’s available to everyone else, too. But it will only help you if you put it into practice, and for a very large number of humans, the only way you will put it into practice is by paying for it. “Instead of saying “I can’t afford it,” say “How can I afford it?” When you need something, you find a way.” - James Swanwick(click to tweet)Key Takeaways:

Click here.Show Notes: JamesSwanwick.com/208“The way you make your money will affect how happy it makes you.” - James Swanwick(click to tweet) The old saying, “money can’t buy happiness” is ingrained in our society on a deep level. The idea of the rich businessman who pursues money at the cost of all else including relationships and family, and ends up old with lots of money and no fulfillment in life is a common story, frequently passed on. Today I’m tackling the questions, “Can money buy happiness?” And I think my answer may surprise you. Yes! But the important differentiator between if more money makes you happier or not is how you earned it. If you have created a product or service that you really believe in, and you know is helping people, more money means more sales, which means that more of your product/service is getting into the hands of those who need it, which means your happiness levels increase as you do more good. So the age-old saying, “money can’t buy happiness,” is actually false! Provided your increase in money comes in a way that you feel good about and really believe in, more money can indeed equal more happiness. In this episode I am talking about all of that, as well as how it relates to my current business situation as Swannies have started to sell very well, so listen up to get a deeper look at all of that! “When you believe in your product or service, the more you sell, the better you feel about yourself.” - James Swanwick(click to tweet)Key Takeaways

Today I am talking with Jim Miller about the sales strategy and process that he taught me, which helped me sell millions of dollars in product sales for Tai Lopez. We’re going through the exact steps that you need to following, in order for the prospect to fully understand the value of what you are selling, and to be empowered to take action to really change their life. And that is a core principle of what Jim Miller is teaching in this episode: You are not trying to push your product or service on them, you are trying to help them take the action that they need to take in order to become the person that they want to be! “Today is the only day to get started.

Get your question answered by James on the Podcast! Click here.Show Notes: JamesSwanwick.com/204The term “diet” has become very commonplace in modern language. The idea that people will go on a diet for a set period of time, to try to whip their body into the shape they want, before plunging directly back into the habits and lifestyle that brought them to the point of needing a diet in the first place, is a vicious cycle. So the solution for how to stick to a diet is simple: Don’t diet! Instead, focus on living a healthy but sustainable lifestyle. For me, this means eating about 80% healthy foods, and 20% junk food or cheat meals. This way I am not torturing myself and my body to eat healthily, to the point where it is no longer sustainable, but rather sticking to a percentage that is sustainable. Everybody’s body will be different, and react differently to different health choices.. But the broad concept here is true and broadly applicable to everyone. Don’t diet! Focus on a healthy lifestyle and eating habits that you will be able to keep up in the long run, leading to a far healthier you! Key Takeaways:

The old health advice was simply “go to the gym and make sure to eat your fruits and veggies.” But we’ve moved far beyond that in our understanding of what makes for a healthy lifestyle, one that promotes a long, healthy life, and Darryl Edwards is talking about what exactly that means on today’s episode. The closer that we can get in fitness to the behaviors and movements to what our ancestors would do, as a very general rule, the healthier we will be, and this is the foundation of the paleo diet. Instead of going to the gym and doing the exact same movement with the exact same weight many times over (which would never happen in nature), find new, more creative and constantly changing ways to challenge yourself physically. In nutrition, shoot to eat mainly the things that a caveman would eat, such as meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds, while avoiding dairy, wheat and other grains, and legumes, as well as processed foods, or even foods that contain those (such as wheat-fed meats, etc). This may seem simple, but you will find that it is far removed from the common diet of today, and will provide you with far more energy, mental clarity, and fitness benefits than some of the more common approaches to diet today. So if you want to learn how to become a better you in many ways, this episode is for you! Listen up, take notes, and refer to the bullet points below, and most importantly implement it in some way TODAY to start taking your life to the next level!

Lots of people would like to be the life of the party. But the truth is that, in order for that to happen, not only do you need to be outgoing and charismatic, you have to be interesting! Don’t skip that most important step! Lots of people think they just need to be loud, but you need something to talk about! This is the reason that I so strongly recommend that everyone travel while they’re young! Simply making this decision does so much for you! You get out of your comfort zone, start to look at life from a different perspective, you can educate yourself at the same time through audiobooks and podcasts, and you become a more interesting person! Travelling while you’re young kills lots of birds with one stone. Even if you’re not as young as you once were, you’re the youngest you’ll ever be, so travel if you can! If finances are an issue, go to a country where your currency will go further, but find a way to have these experiences! You will not regret it! “The best time to travel is now if you possibly can.” – James Swanwick(click to tweet)Key Takeaways:
