The Playbook With David Meltzer

Inspiration goes two ways, but first know that you are accountable for your own inspiration. When you are inspired, you are empowered to invest more (not sacrifice more) to get what you want, if you truly want it. Take accountability for yourself. Find what you love to do and align it with what must be done. Then, work to surround yourself with the right people. When I say, “the right people,” I mean the parts of the people you are most attracted to the parts of others that bring you confidence, make you feel happy, or empower you to be your best self.Tweet me your takeaway from today’s episode @davidmeltzer Email Me! david@dmeltzer.comSign up for my Free Weekly Training https://free.dmeltzer.com/friday-training-1Text Me!

When striving for increased profitability, I like to look at it from a perspective of receiving. I want to receive as much as possible, so that I can give as much as possible. Recognize that one is not possible without the other, and you need to receive something first in order to give it.Tweet me your takeaway from today’s episode @davidmeltzer Email Me! david@dmeltzer.comSign up for my Free Weekly Training https://free.dmeltzer.com/friday-training-1Text Me!

William Shakespeare was a genius in many ways, but there are two ideas of his which are crucial to building any brand. The first, which comes from the play As You Like It, is something that has become even more important over time: “All the world's a stage”. With the prevalence of platforms like social media, the entire world is truly our stage today, and we must take full advantage of that stage in order to build, grow, and sustain a brand. We can transmit our brand’s frequency anywhere, with countless access points and mediums to connect with others, enabling us to potentially reach billions with our message. Using what I call the Stage Theory allows us to turn moments into content that elevates our brand and spreads awareness for the value it brings others. The other piece of the Bard’s advice comes from the character Polonius in Hamlet: “This above all: to thine own self be true...”. Authenticity is a vital component of branding today, because the truth is what vibrates the fastest. Authentic truth is what connects us to others, logically and emotionally. The more truthful and authentic your brand’s message is, as well as the people sharing it, the better it will resonate with others. We don’t just want people to see or hear about the brand, we want them to feel it.

Everything in life, from the construction of a building to a relationship, requires a solid foundation, or it will crumble. If certain things are not in place, you’ll not be able to support all of the other things you wish to accomplish. We want that foundation and support to be solid. We want that foundation and support to be concrete with steel rods, not balsa wood.We want to create the best foundation to manifest things faster and more accurately. Values provide that foundation. No matter what you attract in your life, identify, prioritize, and utilize your own values to build the foundation that best will provide clarity, balance, and focus with confidence. Confidence in what you’re trying to manifest will attract what you desire.

For many of us, hearing no can be tough to handle. What I try and do is re- engineer the way that people think about getting a “No”. Think about it this way: What if I told you that you are 25 “No’s” away from getting what you want most? How excited would you be to get the first “No”? How about the 24th? Take the perspective that you are a finite amount of “No’s” away from getting to that “Yes”. We might not always know what that number is, we only know that we are one step closer.

When I think about branding today, I look back at one person for inspiration, William Shakespeare. He was a genius in many ways, but there are two ideas of his which are crucial to building any brand. The first, which comes from the play As You Like It, is something that has become even more important over time: “All the world's a stage”. With the prevalence of platforms like social media, the entire world is truly our stage today, and we must take full advantage of that stage in order to build, grow, and sustain a brand.
