¶ Intro: What Makes an Exceptional Entrepreneur
We will Hall hotties. I have got something for you to ponder this week, and it was a prompt that I gave my clients in business paying and it was. How cool would it be if You know, one of my favorite things to do and what makes an exceptional entrepreneur is the ability to be visionary. If there is something that is just not gonna cut at being an entrepreneur, it is being realistic. It is putting a ceiling on your potential. It is limiting all the shit that you could do.
¶ The "How Cool Would It Be If" Exercise Explained
You know, you need to be visionary, you need to be creative, and you need to see the most expansive future for yourself. And if you do not have the ability to do that, that's when you would pay someone like me to help you do that. But. I want you for the next week to ponder on this question. Now, in Business, bang, we spent a whole hour on this and it came up after I found myself looking through my Instagram.
I was scrolling and you know, I think Stephen Bartlett from Diary of a CEO, he announced that they were having like a guest. And as I was scrolling through and people were trying to guess who it was, I was like, how cool would it be if that was you? And then I found myself going to the next post and seeing this, like I think it was Lily Allen and she had this beautiful jacket and dress on, and I was like, oh my gosh, how cool would it be if that was in your wardrobe?
¶ Shifting from Jealousy to Hopeful Possibility
And as I was scrolling through my feed, instead of feeling jealous or like something wasn't available to me, I allowed my mind to wander. And I allowed it to kind of shop everything that I was seeing and almost like pull it into. My, my reality by feeling hopeful that this could be something that was in my future. And you know, this was something that I went on to tell my clients in Business.
Bang. I said one of the best things that you can have is hope, because when you have hope, anything could be a possibility. Even if your circumstance right now, even if business, even if life and you're like, this is a bit shit, I'm not really that happy. If you have hope for your future and something is a possibility. Th that that is really all you need is a little seed for you to keep going. And what I
¶ Why Hope is Your Most Valuable Asset
love about this task is it is incredible at fluffing up your energy. So if you're feeling flat, if you've had a really bad week, you are in charge of your state. And as an entrepreneur, you need to make sure that you can fluff up your energy and that you can fluff up your state I wanna say that like if you are someone that just loves to have a win, you just, you love to feel angry or you love to feel sad, make sure that you are not addicted to that
¶ The Playful Visioning Exercise: How to Start
shit. Remember, we become addicted to what is familiar. So this is gonna be a really good circuit breaker for you. So what you are gonna do is I want you to look at where you go to be inspired or where you go to kind of like tune out for things. So where you go to like mindlessly scroll or tune off, like what is like your pleasure activity. So it could be that you love to scroll on Instagram or your TikTok, or your Pinterest or maybe magazines, wherever it is.
But I want you to go to something where you can see what you interact with or what you are liking. So what is interesting is when I go through my saved images on Instagram, I can basically see a vision board of of my future. I can see. What I wanna grow into, even if it's, I'm not conscious of it. It's like why do I need to do a vision board when I vision board every single day for the life that I want?
¶ Your Instagram Saved Folder is Your Vision Board
It's so interesting when I scroll back, so many things that I've like saved, have actualized in my life and. Why this is so powerful is because instead of feeling some, if something is so far off in the future, even if it's something that I can't achieve in the moment, I can still look at something and I can dream. Oh my gosh, how cool would it be if you had a million dollars? How cool would it be if you had a business and you had a thousand clients?
How cool would it be if you had like a six figure brand deal with a company? And what I love about this is you can just allow your mind to wander and you can just shop all of these wonderful ideas. And as you do this, things will come up and your future and what you really want will be revealed to you. So I love that this feels just really playful. It feels fun and it feels exciting. And what I got my clients to do is we looked at this in three different categories.
¶ Visioning in Three Categories: Personal, Business, Network
So we looked at this in personal life, business, and then your clients and your network. So in your business you could say things like, how cool would it be? If I could make a million dollars in a year, how cool would it be if I could make a million dollars in a year? Working three days a week. But how cool would it be if I could do all of that, make a million dollars in a year, working three days a week in school hours?
And what is so cool about this, especially if you let yourself go on these beautiful tangents. So I would recommend like going for a walk and maybe recording yourself and then playing it back to you. what is so cool is right now you have just planted this little seed of possibility in your mind and you get to play in the excitement of that. You get to think about, oh, cool. Cool. Imagine if I, I could do that. How cool would that be? What else would I do? Well, how cool would it be?
I'd have all this money if I could just walk into a store and buy shit and not look at the price tag. How cool would it be if my clients were all of the people that were on my vision board that I wanted to become, that they were actually people that rang me up and they were like, Hey Peter, I need your help with something. And that they, my business expander actually became my client. How cool would that be?
And you can see here how your instead of, instead of like going into that logical strategy brain of, well, this isn't possible, this isn't possible. You allow like the visionary, hopeful, playful side of you to take over.
¶ How Your Mood and Energy Shifts Through This Process
And then as you do this. So much stuff will come up. Now the cool thing is with this, you'll find yourself, as you go through this task, you will feel like you are in a much better mood. You will feel like your energy light, and you'll feel like that you are playful. But most importantly, you'll see so many possibilities for a future that you may have not even imagined was possible for you.
And then the cool thing is with that, it now reveals what you want, because I want you to think about this. How many times has someone said, what do you want? And you can kind of give them a bit of an answer, but it just doesn't really feel right. It kind of feels like you've put on someone else's jacket. Like, sure, it, it, it's a jacket, it's functional, but does it fit you? Is it your style? Is this really what you want?
So when you allow your mind to, to wander and all of these things to come up, it really starts to reveal things that you actually want in life. So as I do this, it's really interesting that it starts to paint a picture of my ideal life and my future and the business and.
¶ Get Absurd With It: Why Ridiculousness Reveals Gold
What I wanna say here is if it's so good, if you can do this with someone, especially if you can kind of bounce ideas off each other and you can make things like a bit absurd. Like you wanna get to a point where you are like laughing and this just feels like so ridiculous because as you do this and in the ridiculousness, there is gonna be so much good data about your sexy future and your sexy life. So let me give you some
¶ Live Idea Shopping Session
ideas, like let's idea shop right now. Let me see if I can say something and you are like, oh yes, I love that. Like how cool would it be for you to hit your income goal and never work a weekend? How cool would it be for you to hit your income goal and never have a late night? How cool would it be if you could make a million dollars and you never had to launch?
How cool would it be if you can put that thing that you always teach your clients into some little passive offer and that made you $10,000 a month? How cool would it be if your work was so distinctive and show you that when bitches attempted to copy, people would see this and they would be like, oh, that's just like a second rate, Peter. I know exactly who that came from.
How cool would it be if your intellectual property was so you, it was like everything was just branded and that they knew the lineage tied directly back to you. How cool would it be if you woke up and every single day you made a sale? How cool would it be if you woke up and every single day, the most unexpected and delightful thing happened?
How cool would it be if every day you refresh joint inbox, there was a sale, there was like a client application form, and there was someone who's like, Hey, it's Vogue Magazine here and we wanna do a feature on you. How cool would it be if you were on the front cover of your favorite magazine? How cool would it be if you had a book deal? How cool would it be if your book did so well that you then got five books after that and you got an advance for a hundred K for each book?
How cool would that be? How cool would it be if you had no client fuckery? How cool would it be if everyone paid you not even on time, but ahead of time and they gave you a tip? How cool would that be? How cool would it be if every single day you woke up and your hair looked amazing, your skin looked incredible, and you went to your wardrobe and you could close your eyes and pick something out and put it on your body, and you knew that you were gonna.
Feel amazing in it and look incredible in it as well. And how cool would it be when you walked up the street, you got five compliments in five minutes from all of these people basically saying, I love how you put that together. That color looks incredible on you. How cool would it be?
How cool would it be that whenever you had this like idea of something you wanted to do, even if it was go to the movies or just take the afternoon off and go to the beach, that you had your business set up where that could be a possibility. How cool would it be if you woke up every day and you felt so confident and you felt so sure of yourself and that you trusted yourself to make decisions?
You can see here as we're going through this, and even as you're hearing me, like speak these ideas about how this just feels good, and even if it doesn't feel true for you in the moment, it still feels like something that it, that that's nice, like that. It could be a possibility. So that is your homework for this week. How cool would it be if, and I want you to allow your mind to wander, keep adding to this list and anytime you see something, you know, add it to the list.
I am sitting, we we're in a new, we're in a new conference room at work this week. 'cause the other one was taken, and I'm looking out, they've just finished building this beautiful building and I'm looking at one of the penthouses and I was like, how cool would it be if you were sitting in here looking at your apartment? I see people that are in the carpark and they are walking down to the beautiful gym downstairs. It's like up to a thousand dollars a week.
How cool would it be if after you recorded this podcast you could toddle down there yourself and do a little workout? That'd be pretty cool. I. And again, this is about you getting in a better energy because when you are in this good, expansive energy one, you are gonna take amazing risks because you know that anytime you make a bold, a risky decision or you are in action, this is leading you towards a future that you want. How cool is that? And it's also like getting you out of the dumps.
Like no one wants to pay some depressed, sad bitch. I'm sorry. They just don't, they don't, like, if you are on Instagram and you are like, guys, pay me. I'm struggling. Oh, you know who I wanna pay the happy fucking person with the amazing energy, because I'm like, I want a piece of her. I want that to rub off on me. So the more that you can fluff up your energy and, and, and play in this like watch, your mind gets better. Your mindset gets better, your thoughts get better.
Your outlook on life becomes hot and fabulous and incredible and fun and ooh, hot stuff. I think this is a fantastic place to end. So I'm gonna leave it there. I love this. I love you and I hope you love the task for this week. I do wanna say that as we approach the end of the year, if you are wanting to have the best year ahead, if you are, no. If you know that you wanna make 2026, your bitch work with me, business Bang is always enrolling. So your six months can start at any time.
But what I wanna say, this is really important because it starts any time. I know sometimes we're like, I'll do it later. Remember, the longer you wait, the longer the results wait. And if you are like, I love this podcast, I want your Brains on my business. You can go and you can have a look at the incredible case studies on my website. I will link them below of the transformation that people get when they work with me. Now, obviously this is like a partnership so I can tell you what to do.
It is up to you to do it. You know, I wanna make that really clear. The clients that get the best results, they take my advice. And they go and they implement it in their business. So I wish I could be a magician where I could click my fingers and it would happen, but unfortunately it doesn't work like that. I will say though, we are, if you have picked entrepreneurship, you have to be able to cultivate that level of discipline within yourself. You gotta be able to do it.
I am so sick of people saying I'm bad at self-paced courses. You've picked a really hard way to make a dollar. Then if. The what is relying on your success is being disciplined, right?
¶ Discipline is Visionary: Turning Vision Into Reality
Even this episode, we can say that that is being disciplined in, in your vision and being visionary, okay? Everything in business is going to require a certain level of discipline. Call, whatever the fuck you want. Devotion, discipline. I really don't care, but this is something I will say. You have to be able to show up for yourself and your vision. Otherwise, it's just gonna sit in this little mind movie and it's not actually gonna actualize. Okay? So work with me, reach out.
You know, you want to, and I also wanna say too, the longer you wait, the more expensive I become. Speaking of which, uh, I thought about that last night. I was brainstorming some content. I feel like my best ideas come to me at night as I'm kind of just mindlessly moving through the house. You know, cleaning up, I'm a bit of like a messy bitch, believe it or not. I just leave a trail of mess behind me.
It's like a trail of destruction, like a little Peter Tornado has gone through somewhere and, I have to like close shop every night in the house. So I walked through my house and I just like put things away and as I do, like thoughts come up. And I was thinking last night about how fun it is to get more expensive. It is so funny that everyone's like, I wanna justify my price. And I'm like, fuck. Justifying my price. Like, why can't we just like take pleasure in being expensive?
Like why do we need to be like, this is why it's worth it. I do feel sometimes the trap of needing to do that, of justifying the price, but I'm also like, but it just feels good to be expensive. And it's so funny. I look at my prize, I'm like, you're not expensive. Do we boost things up a bit more? Right. Do we get people off the fence? I will say that some of my best sales have come from dramatic price increases and just like booting people off the fans, it's like it's now one ever baby girl.
Like if you are not in, you probably will never be in and uh, here's a bit of tea for you. Give an email. Actually used to be, if you're a client, it was 4 95. If you weren't a client, it was 5 95. That's how much it was. Now it looked different. We didn't really have regular calls. There wasn't a Facebook group. There was four calls and I was like, yeah, I think the next time we run it, we'll do like four more calls. But otherwise you're on your own. It's a self-paced course.
And, uh, there were some people that were so on the fence and I was like, guys, it's gonna be so much more expensive. I think I was doing like you could pay in full or across maybe two months or three months. And there were some people who were like uming and ing and I know for a fact that they have, actually, I've said this, people have had deep regret. They're like, I regret so much not buying. And it's like, but it's not my job to stay cheap so you can afford it.
My job is to run my business like a business. And I will honor my business. I will honor my vision, and sometimes that looks like dramatic price increases. Sometimes that is restructuring offers, so I say this for me, but your business and other people's business as well, do not think that how you, how you see things today, how it's going to be like that in the future. Shit is meant to change. It is meant to vol evolve. It is meant to grow or it will die. It will die. So with that, work with me.
Okay, cool. I love you. What do I love you more than I love you more than a hot call to action. I love you more than that. I love you more than I'm looking outside. Melbourne Skyline, beautiful day. The sun is out. There's a beautiful, cool breeze's, lovely in the shade. I think it's gonna be a nice top of 30, 31. It is beautiful. I can smell summer in the air, so I love you more than that, I love you more than the fact that my hair is. Finally like, it's growing. It's growing.
I love this so much. So I did have this like period where my hair was falling off and it was snapping and I was a bit depressed and I was like, well damn girl, you're gonna have to like fall back on that personality of yours. Love that my hair is growing back and it looks healthy, and it looks fresh, and it looks fun. Love you More than that, I love you more than my beautiful mom. Oh my God, Jan, I love her so much. I have been, you know what, guys, I'm gonna be honest with you.
I have been stressed. There is a lot of shit on my plate, so I am. Attempting to organize a renovation. I'm doing it all myself. So I'm the designer. We've got a lot that's happening. I still don't really know where I'm gonna live at this point, so I'm either gonna just like sleep on a blow up bed at my mom. She has a tiny little apartment. Or I'll just work it out. So I love you more than that. I went to her house yesterday. I bought like morning tea, went to her house.
We watched a movie, we watched, what do we watch? Ricky, is it Ricky Snicky? Yeah. I think we watched Ricky Snicky and it was, it was just like stupidly funny. There is sometimes like, it's not like my ideal movie, but sometimes it's just nice to like watch something and have your mind just switch off. I thought it was hilarious. Like I cracked up laughing multiple times. John Cena is hot. John Cena. Yeah. It's so funny.
I don't know if you are like this, but when I ovulate, I feel like I tend to gravitate towards like, like a man of the moment. John Cena. He's just, he is. He is hot. There is something about that man, his energy. You can tell he is a total lover boy. So love you more than that. Wood shag, John Cena. Um, and do you know what I think as well, I was like, imagine if I ever get famous, when I get famous, when am I talking about? And all the shit, the shit that I post on the end of this podcast.
It just like gets leaked out. And like all of the things that I've said, sometimes I worry about that. I'm like, should I have more of a filter? And I'm like, no. Why? But, love you Marvin, John Cena. There is this cover, it's Ocean Eyes by Billie Eilish, and it's being covered by, I think the brand is like to the, the band is Taurus, uh, and it has this like real Allison chains esque, like, like grunge to it. Oh my God. I love it.
And everyone's doing these edits and it, it's like images of like the early two thousands and it's like taking me like all the way back. So I am, I'm feeling this. Nostalgic for my past. I wanna go to a house party and be underage and drink. I wasn't a passion pop gal. I was asie Rick, Donna, and like one of those like shitty little plastic champagne flutes with a strawberry. I loved a house party. Oh my gosh. Loved a house party. Love a farm party.
I still always wore heels, but back then it was wedges because they were like, the thing with like super low rise flared. Like boot cut jeans that were really, really like quite tight with a tiny little top and a pushup bra pushing my like little be up, boobs up. And if you are like you got some big cans now. Yeah, baby, they're fake. Uh, and I used to have big hoop earrings, so I did have my ears pierced, but they've closed over and just like walking around.
Looking for the man of the night doing a lap. Like back then I did exercise, but I wanna tell you that I got my steps in just doing laps around these house parties or these farm parties looking for a hot guy. Anyway, what a way to end an episode. Hot stuff. I am gonna end it here. I love this. I love you, and I will see you on the next episode.
