This kind of brings us to the conversation about EOG.
DR: Gold
Getting really granular here, there’s two things to consider, which are similar but different:
1) Wealth
The long term game of taking money, turning it into more money, and turning that money into a lifestyle that fuels your wildest dreams.
There’s also a short term/long term comparison here: are you focused on your current wealth, aka ability to finance a dream lifestyle, or are you focused on a future wealth/lifestyle/stability?
2) Income
- The short term game of making money, and the long term game of using money to make money (investments, passive, etc.)
Here there is no exceptionally long-term play. Income is the building block of wealth but never the end goal.
The contributions DR:G makes to wealth are FANTASTIC and never before seen at this level, when you consider wealth the ability to finance a dream lifestyle.
-
Temperance, to know how to spend money effectively, not needing to spend money to feel happy, having more money to put into investments, etc.
-
Joy, in being able to know exactly what your “dream lifestyle” is and how to achieve it NOW rather than waiting until you’ve saved up $X, or, knowing the minimal amount you’d need to save/make to make it a reality
-
Leadership, feeling wealthy thanks to community, respect, and the opportunities that you get to lead - some people only feel wealthy making $10m/year, but most people would feel wealthy making 300K/year while leading something amazing, and being given all the priviliges and respects due to a leader (on top of that hefty salary). Imagine Kings, they’re rich because they’re lavished with gifts and favors. DRG is about becoming a king.
So… DRG will certainly effect income, but we don’t know if it’s a little or a lot. @invictus and @niles seem to suggest, quite a lot.
But wow, what it’ll do for wealth will be mind-blowing, guaranteed!
True Sell
So what does this mean for True Sell? True Sell is the vehicle to help you generate extreme levels of income. I feel like it could use more connection, because that’s an inherent part of sales, and in no way is connection ever bad in sales - only the fear of being disliked is bad in sales, and some people are afraid of losing connections once they’ve made them. And I feel like a cognitive enhancement component, specifically for socializing, could be really powerful too - kind of how you mentioned SSX.
So… where does that leave EOG?
That’s the most interesting question of all - because where true sell is a question of how to increase income… EOG is a question of do we want to see in EOG, knowing it could go anywhere.
As @SaintSovereign said, the question is what’s the root cause worth addressing with a 4-stager that justifies EOG even being a 4-stager in the first place.
And I think that EOG’s critical differentiator is as a Wealth subliminal, not an Income subliminal.
HOM, the way I’m thinking about wealth/income, is about connections, deal making, financial manifestations… making as much money as possible for you and your family. AKA income. T$ is about making as much money as possible through sales. Stark/NR… innovation/disruption.
Those are methods of wealth generation, but wealth generation is just income, and any “method” can be attacked with a major title, no need for a 4-stager there.
What EOG can do uniquely is help focus on wealth directly, and by wealth, I mean “the use of money to build a dream lifestyle.”
There are occasionally comments on the forum, sometimes directed at @AlexanderGraves, and others, along the lines of “wow i’m surprised you ran EOG for so many months and aren’t uber-successful yet?”
But why can’t being “wealthy” be a feeling instead of a monetary value.
As a feeling, I’d describe feeling wealthy as two things
- a sense of safety and security that if something happens, you have the resources/resourcefulness to be fine.
- the joy of being able to afford your “dream lifestyle” (by either making more money, or finding a way to afford your dreams with the money you already have.)
So, how I could imagine an EOG 4 stager.
Stage 1, the healing stage, breaking down beliefs of money. Not just the beliefs stopping you from making money, but also the beliefs stopping you from feeling wealthy, regardless of your money status.
Stage 2, the “find your purpose” section of EOG, but especially focused around building your dream lifestyle, investing the money you do make and getting excited about that (it would be a pro-tip to take action by investing, however small), and then coming to love work and what it can do for you… on the one hand, loving work as in finding your purpose, on the other hand, loving work as in loving the act of working itself, even if it’s not the ideal situation, just so long as it’s not a truly negative environment, because work is 8 hours out of every day, we better love it, and wealthy people get to work on what they love.
Stage 2 would also be a Khan Stage 2 like-stage, where there’s more of an emphasis on who you are, your body language, your confidence, your productivity, your vision, your cognition, etc., to be that type of person.
Stage 3, not just financial manifestations, which is a component of RICH, but pulling everything together, you run this stage when you are actually living out your mission and/or able to start building your dream lifestyle. If you don’t feel like you love work yet, or don’t love life yet, keep running stages 1 and 2, until you’ve either started to love life the way it is now, or started to find work that is more purpose aligned.
Of course, stage 4 pulls it all together, while going even deeper into maximizing your dream lifestyle, helping you really understand at the CORE what makes you happy and how much money you need to get there, how to make time for what you love, and how to stop working once you’ve achieved true wealth.
