Kim Butler Videocast
Last night we had an amazing forum. It began with Kim Butler talking about Consumer vs. Producer. She was authentic, powerful, and relatable. She talked about how her mom had always said to “Give a good time” vs. “Have a good time”. Give a good time is about producing and creating value rather than consumption first. She also talked about humility being crucial to staying in abundance and a characteristic of the Producer. An example of that would be to always be learning or to apologize when you find yourself reacting with scarcity that impacts another person.
She also discussed the concept of “we” vs. “you”. When having a conversation that requires a paradigm shift or principled action, it is more powerful to ask the question “what are we going to do about it”. Sometimes people shut down or feel alone if it is “what are you going to do about it”.
Next we had the study group portion of the forum led by Patrick Donahoe. We discussed how Soul Purpose is the true key to investing and that investing is powerful if it leads to and protects the abundance paradigm. Most people invest for rate of return alone, but the critical element is how the investment allows the individual to produce or the external returns related to that investment. Internal rate of return is what is talked about on TV, most radio, and in the newspapers and magazines, but it is least important. The Freedom FastTrack puts practical application and additional context to what I am talking about here.
We also discussed areas where we had scarcity or looked for something for nothing or even gambled from investing. People shared those experiences and what they had learned from them. It was an amazing event. If you would like to attend these in the future go to Freedom FastTrack.com.
