About

What is going on! I am actually coming to you from my car right now. I had this crazy idea which was to - yeah, essentially just publish or make a podcast... not necessarily make a podcast but to just teach the things that I've learned for the day and so you guys can learn from what I'm learning from sitting next to Steven Larsen like every day. So yeah, it may not be a very long podcast, it may not be super huge or anything and yes, I probably won't do it every day. There will be some days where I may just be doing some very mundane work but they're definitely gonna be plenty of days where I'm gonna learn some freakin' awesome crap and publish it and teach it because you can't learn something... you actually don't know something until you know how to teach it. If you can't teach it, you don't know it. So here's the deal, I know how frustrating it is as an entrepreneur to waste countless hours sifting through wannabe experts who never actually help me in the end, then to learn years later that there was an expert who really could help me 100 times faster than learning on my own. I have created this podcast to save you time and money while taking you on a journey with me as I learn from and interview real experts who can actually help you grow your business. My name is Coulton Woods and you're listening to, "Learning From the Experts". I'm gonna try to teach everyday what I'm learning so I can internalize it, better understand it and progress even that much farther. I hope this sounds good, I have no idea if this is gonna be super loud or if it's gonna be really bad or not. So, mainly because I'm in my car literally driving, stopping, starting and lots of noises going on around me, so if you can hear those, I'm sorry I will try to be a little bit better at them. I do have this little mic that I've plugged into my phone and I'm using that to essentially just talk through that but it's got this like little foam thing around it on the outside so, hopefully that helps with the sound. Man! I just got stuck behind some chick that was like staring at her phone, totally not paying attention. Come on guys, I know I'm using my phone right now but I'm not looking at my phone, there's a big difference. So today, craziness like, it was interesting I was talking to Steven right before I left, I was like, dude! I was thinking about it, we get to do some pretty crazy stuff, some awesome stuff, some fast-paced stuff, some highly stressful stuff and some just cool stuff. You know, we get to do a lot of stuff but most people would actually run from this. Like a lot of people would just want to get away. It's too much outside of their norm, it causes them to think outside of their natural thinking too much or it's too much stress at times or just so many different things. A lot of people - it's interesting, people just like to follow just somebody else, just kind of just - just leave me and I'll just go there and not have to think about it. Like the less I have to think about, the less I have to do, the better. I've been thinking about that a lot lately, I don’t know why but I look at some people, what makes me really sad is when I see - I want to say this in the nicest way I can; when I see an older person doing a manual labor, not even manual labor job but just a job that obviously doesn't take a whole lot of skill or technical knowledge or anything to do, like a high-school job. I don't know exactly where I'm going with all this but [laughs], like a high school job, like it's sad to me that they're in that position and they're that old or you know, they never made it any farther. Maybe they did, I don't know, maybe there's something else going on. There's so many different things that I don't know, I can't judge just by looking at them. So obviously there could be a whole lot of other things that have happened but it's surprising me how much people don't try to push them to go farther. They don't push themselves to do more, they don't push themselves to learn. The pain is too much for them, the pain is too hard. Obviously if you're listening to a podcast, you enjoy learning, you enjoy pushing yourself farther than most people do. Like the majority of people do but then again like, some podcasts are not painful. This is more of like, I mean, business podcasts where you're trying to learn business strategies, things that are going to help you mentally, even physically and like professionally. That's gonna have some pain to go with it, it's gonna push you somewhere. Obviously there are podcasts that are purely entertainment based and have no really growing potential there. So, I think the fact that you're listening to this podcast and you're trying to get insights from experts or different people as I am trying to gain these insights from the experts that I have around me or the people that I'm seeing or being in contact with so often, that's huge, that means a lot, it means you're actually trying to go somewhere and build yourself to become better which obviously is gonna help you go places. I actually published a quote on my Facebook page, not even the page, it's my profile, a couple days ago that says; I'm gonna try not to butcher it but essentially says "formal education will get you a job that's gonna get you by, self-education will make you a fortune." and obviously there's a lot of - there's some contingence there. Self-education just for the sake of Education not to take it anywhere most likely won't be making you a fortune unless you use it to publish or do different things or become better in your profession. So, self-education; I would say self-education that is focused to a point of making you better, to become better in your profession or to grow yourself, that's gonna help you know, grow those bounds that you have, that's what's gonna make you the fortune. Not just general education, not just general self-education, sorry about that. So, yeah, just - this is good stuff. I was actually listening to an interview from Tom Bilyeu and I could probably - I'm probably totally butchering his name right there. So I'm listening to this interview of Tom Bilyeu from doctor - oh man, I'm totally gonna miss his name. Damn, I can't remember it. Anyway, so, it's this neurologist guy and he's talking about how all of these different issues like Alzheimer's, dementia, just all these bad chronic illnesses that you can get especially in later years, even autism stem from the food you eat, your gut. Your gut drives everything in your body. You eat like crap, you're gonna get really bad results essentially in the rest of your body, you're gonna have these issues. If you eat more healthy, if you eat stuff that's actually good for you and there's a big difference on a lot of things there, your gut is gonna be healthier which is actually gonna help with everything else in your body. Super interesting, it was like an hour long, super interesting interview. The guy had some crazy stories about some different things that we're - it blew my mind. They actually use fecal matter to cure autism. Yeah, think on that for a second, like if that doesn't sound crazy, I don't - yeah, that's... like what! You did what! Like how do you even think about that? But essentially, it's because if you find the right fecal matter that has the right bacteria, it'll cure the problems in the gut and bring those right bacteria into your gut which then helps everything else in your body. That's pretty insane if you ask me. That's a very short version of it but... knowledge like guys, be pushing yourself to gain more, to become more. Teach the things that you're learning so you can internalize them. Be listening to content that is actually there to help you become better who you are. It's so interesting to me, if you take care of yourself, other things happen, you can do so much more. I drink Keto drinks every day because of the power it gives me to be cognitively there and to be able to think more straight and clearly and to keep my mind going. That's so sad to be - I think so many people - a lot of people that - and I'm not a doctor, I don't know but based on what this guy was saying, a lot of your gut stuff has to do with Alzheimer's but honestly like, if you think about it, a lot of people that don't push themselves. They just come home after they work and they honestly don't try to do much at work. They just kind of go through it as easily as possible and then they come home, sit down on the couch, watch TV, eat some junk food and then go to bed and repeat. And then on the weekend you're doing drinks whatever, all this stuff. Honestly, I think a lot of your mental health comes from that style of living, that life - that lifestyle and because you're not pushing your brain to develop more, you're not actually like helping it be more cognitively there. It's interesting, every thought you have creates a new neural pathway and the more thoughts you have on the same idea, the same subject, the bigger that neural pathway becomes and the stronger it is and then it helps you actually be able to create new like answers to questions that you didn't have before. It helps your brain naturally be able to go back to it and if you don't use that neural - if you stop thinking on that subject, that specific subject, that neuro pathway will kind of decrease over time. So, do you want to be good at something, I think it was something like 10,000 hours to become an expert in a certain field. We can't just become an expert looking - doing something for an hour. Yes, you can understand some things but it really takes a whole lot longer than that and there are ways yes, I believe the shortcut but it's - you can't be an expert in everything. You find somebody who's an expert in it, you have them help you. You find another expert that's good at this area and you hire them to help you. I mean, it's so much faster that way; you can grow and do so many more things that way. Anyway, so that's kind of my - that's my rant today is; guys, be self-educating, push yourselves, be always trying to - if you're not listening to new content which I do believe is not a good thing to be always listening to new - listening to content, you need to also be thinking on that subject, to be growing that neural path, to - yeah, essentially become better at that specific subject. You actually find answers to questions that people have been asking if you think kind of enough. It's kind of interesting, there's some studies about meditation on how that actually helps you create, like become in a space where your brain can help you understand and answer questions. Super interesting. I've seen it done guys, like Steve Larsen went into a pretty much headphones on, focus mode for weeks straight before Offer Mind, our event, is where he taught everything about offers for you know, creating offers for your products and selling them. Literally for weeks straight like just meant like mentally in that and nothing else, like just thinking on that and while he was doing that, I kid you not, I saw so many things that he had learned and understood so much more because of that. He was building - not only had he built that neural pathway before then but now that he's focusing on it 24/7 for weeks, it was just going nuts and like building so much that he was answering questions and things that nobody had really answered before. He was figuring things out that people hadn't figured out before. He was connecting things that hadn't been connected before. I saw it done right before my eyes, I know it happens. The more you think on something, the bigger that neural pathway comes. So, if you're even thinking on something that you're like "man, I need to stop, I don't like that", like even like TV shows and things like, "I think too much about that or -" whatever it may be, you need to find something that draws your attention that you enjoy, that is going to help build that neural pathway even more. If you guys want like a hack to getting your brain focused and centered on things that are - that you need to be focused on and be able to like think so much faster, you need to change your diet, you need to stop eating so many carbs and drinking sugars and you need to drink some Keto... some ketone supplements, that's what I do. I don't eat carbs at work, I stay away from carbs as much as I can because I know mentally, cognitively I will slow down and so I just stay away from it. I mean, I'm not saying that don't eat carbs because I definitely eat carbs. I need to not eat carbs and I wish I didn't, I wish I could just stay away from them 100%. Not 100% but you know, because I know it'd be so much healthier for me. And literally when I did Keto, when I got on to the Ketone diet, things in my body that I had issues with like heartburn and different things, I can't like say Keto cured me but when I did that, there was a crazy difference in my body since then. I stopped having heartburn, literally didn't have a problem with heartburn before that or after that. Before, it was every day. I would wake up in the middle of the night, burning heartburn, can't sleep. I even remember, there's plenty of times, I remember like just waking up choking on like acid, like heartburn, it's so bad. So, like guys, educate yourself, you'll find things that are actually going to be a huge huge benefit to you, your life, everything. But you don't know that unless you're searching, if you're understanding or you know, you're finding things that are gonna help you understand that. So, that's my - that's my rant for today, hopefully you guys liked it and we'll talk to y'all later. Are you looking to jump-start your business by learning or getting help from the real experts?
