Solopreneurs Revolutionizing Solar Industry
00:00:00
Speaker
What do you call an underground group of solar professionals on a mission to create a more sustainable world?
00:00:05
Speaker
We call ourselves solopreneurs.
00:00:08
Speaker
And while some might call us crazy, foolish, and dissatisfied with the status quo, we're the ones taking action to create a better future for ourselves and the world.
00:00:18
Speaker
Solopreneur is dedicated to give you, the solar professional, the tools, skills, technology, and mentorship to take the industry by storm and sell more solar with less effort.
00:00:30
Speaker
We are solopreneurs and this is our story.
Sacrifices for Solopreneur Success
00:01:00
Speaker
Listen, being a top solo pro is not easy, if you can't tell already.
00:01:04
Speaker
You're gonna have to make a lot of sacrifices.
00:01:06
Speaker
You're gonna have to cut some things out.
00:01:08
Speaker
But one of the most difficult changes most people, most students of mine have is this, their environment.
00:01:15
Speaker
Realizing that people like friends that they've hung out with their entire life, family members, those social media groups they're a part of, those communities they're a part of, right?
00:01:26
Speaker
Those junk food that they're eating,
00:01:29
Speaker
bad material they're watching, news that they're watching, things like this have such a significant impact on you, you have to be laser focused and aware of them.
00:01:39
Speaker
And the more you can eliminate, the more that you can surround yourself with people that are conducive with your goal of making 100 grand.
00:01:46
Speaker
They're making 100 grand.
00:01:47
Speaker
They're making 250.
00:01:48
Speaker
They're making half a million a year.
00:01:50
Speaker
If you can hang around those people,
00:01:53
Speaker
your likelihood of success goes up significantly.
The 'Crabs in the Bucket' Analogy
00:01:58
Speaker
The difficult part and the number one thing I want you to do is I want you to identify what I call the crabs in the bucket theory.
00:02:05
Speaker
You've heard this before, but the theory is very simple.
00:02:08
Speaker
If you have a bucket, you're out fishing, you're crab fishing, and you have five, 10, 15 crabs in there, they're in the bucket, you don't need to put a lid on this bucket.
00:02:19
Speaker
Why?
00:02:20
Speaker
Because when one crab
00:02:22
Speaker
or two or three crabs try to go climb up out of the bucket, get freedom, all of the other crabs in the bucket simultaneously pull the crab back down in the bucket.
00:02:33
Speaker
They pull them down.
00:02:36
Speaker
And it happens every single time.
00:02:37
Speaker
Go YouTube it.
00:02:38
Speaker
It's absolutely crazy how this works.
00:02:40
Speaker
Your life is the same way.
00:02:43
Speaker
The people you're around, a lot of them don't want you to be successful.
00:02:47
Speaker
And the harsh reality of this is, okay, the people who don't want you to be successful are often the closest to you.
00:02:55
Speaker
Your family members, your mom, your dad, your brother, these are the people to where you get on the brink of success, they will subconsciously try to sabotage your success.
00:03:06
Speaker
I'd be saying my mom's not like that.
00:03:09
Speaker
I didn't think that either with my parents, right?
00:03:11
Speaker
And when I started making more money than my parents at 19 years old, things changed.
00:03:17
Speaker
Things changed.
00:03:18
Speaker
Conversations changed.
00:03:19
Speaker
They started giving advice, trying to interject their opinion, right?
00:03:22
Speaker
Trying to do what parents do.
00:03:24
Speaker
And you got to realize it comes out of love.
00:03:25
Speaker
These people want and care about you.
00:03:28
Speaker
That's why they're doing these things.
00:03:29
Speaker
That's why they're saying you shouldn't sell solar.
00:03:31
Speaker
They think it's dangerous.
00:03:33
Speaker
They're trying to protect you, but realize that protection is often going to be the biggest threat to your success.
Limiting Goal Discussions with Family
00:03:40
Speaker
So you've got to make hard, difficult decisions.
00:03:43
Speaker
One decision I had to make is I don't talk about my financial goals.
00:03:47
Speaker
I don't talk about my career to my parents.
00:03:49
Speaker
I edit that relationship.
00:03:51
Speaker
I just talk about superficial things.
00:03:52
Speaker
Hey, how's the weather?
00:03:54
Speaker
How's the family?
00:03:55
Speaker
We talk about little fun things like that.
00:03:57
Speaker
But I don't talk about dreams and goals because when I do, they start interjecting their advice, their doubts, their opinions.
00:04:04
Speaker
They start shooting down those dreams because they want to protect me because they think it's high risk.
00:04:09
Speaker
And to them, it is high risk because they're not trained and they're not around people that are going to help elevate them to the level they need to be at.
00:04:17
Speaker
So realize, as harsh as it sounds, right, cutting, editing relationships with family, you have to do it.
00:04:23
Speaker
You have to rip off the band-aid and do this.
Listener Incentives and Engagement
00:04:26
Speaker
So right now, make a list of all the crabs, the environment, the things that you're reading that are going to be toxic and be negative to your environment.
00:04:33
Speaker
Eliminate them, and let's get to the next video.
