How to escape poverty and live a better life.

1. Change your mindset. You don’t get in life what you want, you get in life WHO YOU ARE. Change your mindset, change your life! How? Read books, listen to podcast, attend seminars, network with amazing people, etc.
2. Hang around Only Quality People. You earn 2 to 3 thousand dollars of your closest friends.
3. Develop your communication skills because once you open your mouth you tell the world who you are. How do I develop my communication skills?
   1. HAIL
      1. Honesty: be clear and straight.
      1. Authenticity: standing in your own truth.
      2. Integrity: doing what you say, be your word.
      3. Love: wishing people well.
      4. Get a voice coach to help you improve your voice.
   2. your ability to tell your story is important.
   3. Use the language of leadership. Study MLK, JFK, Lincoln, great leaders who had the power to persuade crowds. Watch the words you use, watch the language of toxicity. The words you speak are how you see the world. Talk about positive things, talk about abundance, talk about good things, talk about the future you want to build. Keep a journal (I don’t know what I think, until I write it down.), write the language of victim hood and write the language of leadership. Commit yourself to using the language of someone who is world class. Clarity breeds mastery. You are build to be a leader not a victim.
   4. Use conversational language. Use inclusive language for example, this is important to you, we all need to be concerned with, first what we need to do is this, the second thing we need to consider is this. The power is in the pronouns. Include people in your speeches.
   5. Match & Mirror. Build rapport with your audience. Questions we use to dig for common ground. Rapport is created by a feeling of commonality. People like people who are like themselves or who are like who they would like to be.
