The most frustrating thing in the world is to put

The most frustrating thing in the world is to put in years of hard work only to stay at the same exact spot.
⠀
Especially when you work in Sales, and you have all the techniques.
⠀
You have decent results; you know how to sell.
⠀
You have a great attitude; you’re always first in and last out.
⠀
But it’s been years and you don’t feel like you have truly Advanced in life.
⠀
You witness your youth pass you by, and you hate that you never really realized your true potential.
⠀
How is this possible?
⠀
You don’t just want to be an average, B+ salesperson.
⠀
You want to be a leader.
⠀
You want to be the best of the best.
⠀
Yet those annoying, pesky little subconscious and emotional mind blocks keep haunting you.
⠀
Sometimes you see them, other times you don’t.
⠀
You’re thinking if you were to confront them, everything could come crashing down.
⠀
The good news is, they aren’t real.
⠀
You read that right.
⠀
If you make these 5 shifts that I’m about to share with you, your limiting beliefs must die.
⠀
You’ll finally be able to be the A+ player you’ve always dreamt of being.

I used to have this student that learnt Jeet Kune

I used to have this student that learnt Jeet Kune Do from me...
⠀
One day after training, we both sat down and had a chat.
⠀
"You know Sean, I really envy how you're able to live your passion every single day," he said to me.
⠀
"What do you mean? What's your passion?" I asked.
⠀
"I love playing the drums," he answered.
⠀
"Well, then play it!" I said.
⠀
"It's not that simple..." he explained.
⠀
So the story was that even though he had became extremely successful in his career, and he was only in his early 40s at the time, he was never happy.
⠀
That was never his definition of success.
⠀
His dream was to play the drums professionally.
⠀
But because he was taught to always go after "the next thing", he put it aside year after year...
⠀
It was always about graduating first, then getting a job first, then getting married, then having kids, and before you know it...
⠀
"Not a single day goes by that I don't think about playing the drums..." he confessed.
⠀
It was heavy.
⠀
It was no surprise that he was burnt out; he never liked his "successful" job.
⠀
If you're like that student of mine, you have something that you REALLY want to pursue, but you haven't had the confidence, the decisiveness and the support to go for it, understand that there is no tomorrow.
⠀
Sometimes, all it takes is a Decision to reconnect with your dream and passion.
⠀
Do you believe?
⠀
That's where the greatest version of you awaits.
⠀
You can't stop a person who lives his truth every single day - you just can't.
⠀
Speak soon,
Sean

People have been texting me over the last few week

People have been texting me over the last few weeks, asking "where have you been"?
⠀
"Why are you not posting anything anymore?"
⠀
Truth is, I've been gone.
⠀
I've been concentrating on practicing what I preach - Mind Advancement.
⠀
See, I created this program as a solution to the countless of sales professionals I've seen who are stuck and burnt out.
⠀
Especially those with emotional burdens and believe that they can't be fixed.
⠀
I knew that I was capable of helping them redesign their lives, reconnect to their purpose, and get back to being at their very best.
⠀
Burnout is real, it's painful and no one should have to go through that.
⠀
That's why over the last four weeks, I was busy doing two things.
⠀
One - I went deep into re-designing my flagship Burnout to Brilliance program, and two - I coached two sales professionals give their ways of life a complete overhaul.
⠀
It's deeply gratifying to watch them blossom.
⠀
I feel really happy that everything is up and running again (thanks to my amazing team), and we are now able to reach out and help more people than ever.
⠀
Even though the last four weeks have been hectic, overwhelming and extremely challenging, I was able to finally put everything in order, get to the next level and help my clients in the process.
⠀
The only reason I myself didn't burn out was because I was deeply connected to my Identity and Passion.
⠀
So you must find your Fire Within too.
⠀
If you have been overworked, are emotionally exhausted and now see that persisting on that path will only cause everything to come crashing down in the end, stop.
⠀
Do yourself a favour and watch this free training I've created for you — Link in bio.

Maybe it's time you put your burnout down, too.

Face your limitations bravely. It’s a great thing to reflect and uncover your limitations. In doing so, you grow and advance. Is it not a great thing? The alternative is to not face them, live in ignorant bliss and keep your results. Which one do you want?

There’s a time where “more” won’t be enough.
⠀
Especially when you think closing more sales is the answer.
⠀
You get there, only to realize that physically you’re fulfilled...
⠀
but the vacuum was always elsewhere.
⠀
You may be unhappy at home.
⠀
You may be unsatisfied with your love life.
⠀
You may resent the fact that you never got to pursue your passions.
⠀
You don’t see a need to answer these inner calls…
⠀
Until the wake up call happens.
⠀
The Universe brings you to your knees, and you realize that it’s the perfect time to pray.
⠀
That’s the time where “more” starts to comes from Within.
⠀
You realize that the solution and the fulfilment was never external.
⠀
The medicine to your suffering was always inside of you.
⠀
You start to see your true potential.
⠀
That’s the Shift that you were here to learn.
⠀
You get back to serving your clients, and you’re finally able to serve them from a place of true joy and fulfilment.
⠀
You then watch your numbers skyrocket, and you smile to yourself - knowing that what you have been chasing was with you all along.
⠀
If you’ve been running for too hard and too long, stop and take a listen.
⠀
Hear that inner call from deep inside - it’s the call of your heart.
⠀
Talk soon,
SS

What does confidence mean to you? ⠀ I was speaki

What does confidence mean to you?
⠀
I was speaking with my spiritual coach last night.
⠀
A friend who works in sales was with me. He thought he had confidence, but he wasn’t able to really define it.
⠀
After masterminding together, we each came up with our own definitions and I shared mine.
⠀
I told them that my understanding of Confidence went from
“Knowing I can when it seems that I cannot” to
“Knowing I can.”
⠀
My coach then shared with us that there was another type of confidence:
⠀
“Knowing my End”
⠀
That means to possess a proactive and courageous Mindset to:
⠀
Know the end goal
Do everything it takes to learn, execute and manifest it
⠀
This sounds simple, and you probably think you recognize confidence…
⠀
I would argue that confidence is the most important ingredient for success at your sales career.
⠀
When a customer who’s rude talks down to you at work, do you possess the confidence to stand up for yourself and masterfully put him in his place?
⠀
When your boss pressures you to hit those numbers, do you possess the confidence to not just score but surpass them?
⠀
When your life is overwhelmed and you’re overworked, do you possess the confidence to reinvent yourself and redesign your life?
⠀
These difficult moments are tests for you to understand and conquer yourself.
⠀
If you don’t, these cycles will repeat themselves forever and only get more intense each time.
⠀
Could developing true, inner confidence be the solution for your burnout at work?
⠀
Not the loud, boastful type.
⠀
But the one that gives you that Inner Knowing that you have already arrived.
⠀
Think about it.
⠀
Talk soon,
SS

You're walking into your office and already you fe

You're walking into your office and already you feel pressured.
⠀
"My bosses are going to put all that quota on me again."
⠀
"Sure, I'll be able to take a break after work, but I'll have to meet those sales numbers all over again tomorrow morning."
⠀
"I'll be able to close deals as always... but is there a life at all outside of this?"
⠀
If you don't even have the mental capacity to process these thoughts, then you're past burnout - you've become numb and detached.
⠀
That's not a healthy place to be.
⠀
How many months or even years must you send down the drain before you actually and finally start living for yourself?
⠀
You might think Willpower is the answer, but I'm sorry - it isn't.
⠀
Willpower is your friend only if you're on the right path.
⠀
If you're on a hamster wheel, and you're abusing your willpower just because you think if you let go, you'll lose EVERYTHING you've worked so hard to build in your sales career.
⠀
Let me tell you that losing yourself is worse.
⠀
Because nothing is more precious than your health.
⠀
You can always get your numbers back.
⠀
So, if you have been grinding your ass off only to stay in the same position and feel suffocated inside, I think it's about time you stop.
⠀
Stop and do these three things right now.
⠀
1. Detach yourself from the situation.
⠀
Will working harder help? Will expanding more time and energy solve it? Is there even an exit point? If there isn't, maybe it's time for a MAJOR rethink. Don't run towards a dead end.
⠀
2. Identify what's really important.
⠀
What's the end game if you continue to grind for another 3 to 5 years like this? If every day is the same, at what point will things actually change? What's really important to you?
⠀
3. Seek help
⠀
What's preventing you from emptying your cup and asking for proven and verifiable solutions? Don't be surprised if you have been stuck for years but actually you're only one question away.
⠀
Don't abuse your willpower anymore. Get that inner clarity and empower yourself with your truth. Soldier on only after you've the road map you want.
⠀
And all that talk about execute, hustle, grind - yeah it doesn't work when you're at your limits.
⠀
Be still and Know Yourself!

Yesterday, someone asked me, “Why do you always

Yesterday, someone asked me, “Why do you always talk about martial arts, badminton, etc. on your social media that has nothing to do with what you do - which is to help sales professionals overcome burnout and overwhelm?”
⠀
It’s not always easy to understand...
⠀
But my passions have EVERYTHING to do with helping you to overcome your emotional burdens as a sales professional.
⠀
How?
⠀
The easiest thing for a leader to do is to simply tell others to do things, without living it themselves.
⠀
I am actually not as attached to my physical goals as I was in my 20s.
⠀
The reason I still pursue my passions 100% is to prove a point.
⠀
That if you KNOW what you WANT, you can HAVE IT.
⠀
What this means for you as a sales professional is that you can Design your life the way you want it to be.
⠀
You DON’T have to overwork yourself every day.
⠀
You DON’T have to be pressured by your numbers every day.
⠀
You DON’T have to remain stuck in the cycle of burnout while leaving your passions and favorite hobbies to rot on the side.
⠀
You can, on the contrary, USE your PASSIONS to fuel your sales career by designing for yourself a life that deeply fulfills and empowers you.
⠀
A way of life where you know exactly where you’re going.
⠀
A way of life where you are able to engage your passions every single day.
⠀
A way of life where you have time for your family and loved ones.
⠀
All while making the good money that you’re already making, minus the emotional burdens…
⠀
What kind of teacher would I be if I taught others to design their lifestyle, while not living it myself?
⠀
So, ask yourself what are the things that fulfill, rejuvenate and empower you.
⠀
Block time out to make sure that you’re leading a balanced, harmonious and well thought lifestyle so that you can continue to sell and serve your clients.
⠀
Maximum fuel, maximum impact.
⠀
Very respectfully,
SS

If you want more and better in life—as we all do

If you want more and better in life—as we all do, fighting your current circumstances will never get you what you want... ⠀
Use the Law. 🌎♾ ⠀
“You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” ⠀
Buckminster Fuller said that a long time ago, and he was right. ⠀
Instead of fighting your current circumstances, build a totally new model of what you really want. ⠀
Not sure how to do that or how to turn your new model into your reality? ⠀
Let me show you—it’s what I do best.

“Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self.”

Just saw a post on Instagram: "It's about the JOURNEY, not the destination."
⠀
Well, maybe.
⠀
If they mean that you should be alive and present in every moment, drinking in every moment of your life, then of course… they're right.
⠀
But if they're talking about taking a long-ass time to hit your goals as a sales professional, they are dead wrong.
⠀
I don't know about you, but I want the journey to my income and lifestyle goes to be as short and simple as humanly possible.
⠀
I don't think there's any point in wasting YEARS getting to our goals, especially if we:
⠀
1. Burn ourselves out by working exceedingly long hours. Just because the wake up call or crisis hasn’t happened, doesn’t mean we can overwork and paste band-aids on ourselves just to push a little further.
⠀
2. Sacrifice our time with loved ones. By the time the wake up call happens, it’s too late. I really regretted the times I missed out with my family because of over-training and overworking in sales.
⠀
3. Procrastinate on pursuing our passion/what we really love. Each time I didn’t get to practice martial arts because I chose to work, I died a little inside.
⠀
Is it worth it, even if we make good money but drain ourselves out?
⠀
I believe there's a shorter path:
⠀
I believe that if you are deeply tuned in to your sense of Mission, you live with intent/purpose, you can be empowered by your Truth every step of the way.
⠀
This brings you EXTRAORDINARY stamina and clarity that you use to master your goals with impeccable accuracy. You live each day on a high knowing that you’re always at your best.
⠀
You 3X your sales numbers and have EVEN MORE time to spend with your family/loved ones and your passions/hobbies outside of sales. Trust me, nothing beats living like this.
⠀
I believe that you got into sales because you saw yourself making six figures and beyond. You believed you could make a difference in the world.
⠀
I believe you will too.
⠀
So whatever game plan you choose to pursue, make sure it is a straight-line path to your goals. You don’t need to spend years. You don’t need to live with burnout, frustration or emotional overwhelm.
⠀
You can get there in a few weeks with the right plan.
⠀
SS

You might not have what it takes to live a six-fig

You might not have what it takes to live a six-figure lifestyle as a sales professional...
⠀
Let’s find out.
⠀
There are two questions you need to ask yourself:
⠀
Are you actually committed to
⠀
1. Advancing yourself
⠀
and
⠀
2. Helping others?
⠀
Think about it: Did you get into sales so that you could build yourself into your Greatest Version?
⠀
Do you truly believe deep down that what you sell WILL help others?
⠀
If your answers are YES, but you aren’t at where you want to be because you feel STUCK, BURNT OUT, or FRUSTRATED with life...
⠀
I’m here to remind you that you don’t need ‘more’.
⠀
Why?
⠀
It’s NOT because of what you sell.
⠀
It’s NOT because of your character.
⠀
It’s NOT because of your skills/techniques.
⠀
It’s because your emotional burdens weigh you down and hold you back.
⠀
You need to heal. You need to find yourself. You need to be you again.
⠀
If you let yourself carry on with this cycle of burnout, you’ll lose yourself.
⠀
BUT when you conquer burnout, reinvent yourself and design your own lifestyle, 3 amazing things happen for your sales career:
⠀
You do LESS while CRUSHING your numbers in sales.
⠀
You have the time to do the things that deeply matter to you.
⠀
You have CRYSTAL CLEAR vision as far as your goals, destinations go.
⠀
ALL THESE while feeling extraordinary every step of the way.
⠀
Remember - the way the world works is either you dictate your own life, or the world does it for you.
⠀
Every morning, we get to wake up and decide what we really want in life.
⠀
What do you want?
⠀
Talk soon,
SS

One year ago, I began selling my first ever Mind-r

One year ago, I began selling my first ever Mind-reset program.
⠀
I spoke to hundreds of people that would say things like:
⠀
"Every day I get crushed by the PRESSURE of my bosses forcing me to hit my sales quota"
⠀
"I want to be doing what I love, yet here I am being OVERWHELMED with office work and politics that I hate"
⠀
"Here I am in my 40's, making good money but feeling BURNT OUT and empty inside, because I let my love for guitar die."
⠀
All three clients cried on those calls, enrolled, and went on to become my BEST clients with the most amazing, transformative and life-changing results.
⠀
They became the reasons why I fell in love with what I do 🙂
⠀
Now, those that DIDN'T sign up...
⠀
All had the common trend of "I already know that".
⠀
Their cup was FULL, so I let them go.
⠀
One year later, Facebook reminded me of our Friendship.
⠀
One by one, I talked to them.
⠀
In 21 calls, how many people do you think were hitting their goals?
⠀
Zero.
⠀
Everyone was stuck right where they were one year ago.
⠀
The SCARIEST thing was the things they were telling me were EXACTLY THE SAME as they did 12 months ago.
⠀
One brilliant boxing coach even went bankrupt.
⠀
I hung up after the last one, devastated.
⠀
Not because they hadn't enrolled, but because I realized I'd let them down.
⠀
As a sales professional, you are a gift to this world.
⠀
People need YOU, and if you aren't at your best because of emotional burdens or deeply-rooted subconscious beliefs, you can't progress.
⠀
If you're feeling burnt out, stuck or empty inside, NOTHING is going to change in yet another year.
⠀
But AT YOUR BEST, lives can be changed because of what you sell and you know it.
⠀
Those clients that didn't enroll, not only did all they miss out on a better life... all the prospects THEY could have helped as a sales professional missed out, too.
⠀
But the ones that did step up? They conquered burnout. They crushed their goals and went even further. They changed the lives of themselves AND the prospects they served.
⠀
From that day forward, I never let a potential client off the hook again.
⠀
You shouldn't either.
⠀
Happy New Year,
SS

Recently, I asked my tribe the number one thing they would like to learn from me before the year ends.
⠀
They all voted “How to Unleash the Powers of My Subconscious Mind”.
⠀
Interesting.
⠀
I was wondering why would a community of Sales Professionals ask to learn about Mind.
⠀
So, I probed further.
⠀
One of them felt like he needed a Shift in his Identity somehow.
⠀
Another felt stuck and believed that the Subconscious Mind can heal and overcome his obstacles.
⠀
A lady mentioned that people need to be informed about this topic, because the conscious mind can only handle so much weight.
⠀
I loved all the feedback I received.
⠀
Therefore... later TONIGHT I’ll be posting a Free Video Training for our private Facebook Community, as requested.
⠀
I’ll show you how Reprogramming my Subconscious Mind has helped me to overcome every challenge and drastically increase my performance and quality of life as a Sales Professional.
⠀
Even when things seemed impossible.
⠀
There are literally no limits to what you can do with this.
