Automatic transcript. May contain errors.0:00Hi, my name is Lewis Howes and welcome to the Daily Motivation Show.
0:08There is one main thing that is blocking you from reaching your full potential. And it's all because you're trying to do everything alone. And that's a big problem. Because real growth happens when you build a community. When you're in a room full of people who want to see you thrive. Who support you becoming your best self.

1:19Asked another friend recently, they said they don't wanna make more money because they'd be afraid they would turn into a bad person. And I said, why would you turn into a bad person? Well, because people that I know who have money, they're just stingy. They're not good with their money. They don't treat people well. And I don't want to become out of integrity with money and do that to other people. And so again, this money mindset is keeping you trapped and holding you to a certain ceiling of how much you're able to make right now. And once you can break through that money mindset, which is a whole book is about, once you can break through that, then you can start to create an enormous amount of financial peace in your life and live in generosity.
2:02You don't have to be out of integrity. You don't have to be stingy when you make money. You don't have to be a bad person. Money is energy and money amplifies who you are. So if you're a stingy, selfish person now, when you make more money, you're going to become more of that. If you're a generous, kind, joyful person now, you're going to amplify that energy into the world when you have more money. So it's about shifting our money perspective, our money mindset. But first you have to understand your money story, the history of your money. Then you have to understand your money style. Most of us don't know this.
2:36I cover everything about that in this book. Then you can create a powerful money mindset so you can earn more. But if you don't follow the steps, you're not going to be able to get to the next level. You always fall back behind if you don't follow these steps. Then we talked about how to create a money map to reach clear financial goals. Most people aren't clear on how much they want to make on a yearly basis. If you're not clear, why would you create more? If you just say, well, I just want to make millions. Well, why? Why do you want to make those millions? How many millions? If you want to make a hundred grand, why do you want to make that?
3:09When do you want to make it by? You've got to clearly define your money map in order to reach your financial goals. We have it all in the book, Make Money Easy. Then we talk about how to appreciate your value and discover your hidden skills and gifts for greater earning potential. You know, when I was broke, I didn't think I had any skills. I was just like, there's no way I'm going to learn how to make money. I don't understand it. I didn't go to school for it. I don't know anything about taxes or interest or investments. And just like, what skills do I have that I can go get a job with? I thought I had nothing.
3:45I was just a football player who got injured. I didn't have any skills. I was in the bottom of my class in school. So I was terrified around money because I didn't understand it. But when you learn to appreciate your own value and tap into these hidden gifts, we talk about how to find those hidden gifts for extreme earning potential. I didn't know the gifts that I had would make me a millionaire, but they did. They did many times over in those gifts that I thought were pointless. I didn't even think they were useful. It's everything that I use for the School of Greatness show now, which is one of the biggest shows in the world.
4:24But I didn't know how to uncover those gifts. We talk about how to do that to appreciate your value, uncover those hidden gifts so you can earn more. Then we talk about something that, man, has changed my life around business and money. And that is how to discover and develop money mentors in your life to help you from minimizing the risks and the losses around your financial journey and helping you maximize the gains. When I started to learn about money mentors, it changed everything for me. One thing a money mentor could say to you could help you earn so much more or help you save from losing a lot as well.
5:07We talk about all these principles in the book and I give you the money mentors that I've interviewed in their greatest tips in Make Money Easy as well. All the best people that I've interviewed, I got them to mentor me and also I got them to mentor you and I share their best practices in Make Money Easy. We talk about all these things and more because this isn't just another book about finances or investing. That's not what this is about. This is everything you need to own your worth so you can earn more and create the abundance you desire. And in this book, you discover the seven money habits to unlock financial peace and freedom.
5:51And these seven habits are crucial. Again, 12 years of interviews on the School of Greatness with some of the top leaders in the world, financial experts in the world, money masters. And here are seven habits that you need to unlock to create financial abundance and peace in your life.

"Money is energy, and money amplifies who you are. If you're a generous, kind, joyful person, you're going to amplify that energy into the world when you have more money." - Lewis Howes
I used to be that person who thought I had absolutely nothing to offer the world. Picture this: a broken football player, bottom of my class in school, completely terrified of money because I didn't understand taxes, investments, or how any of it worked. I remember thinking, "What skills do I possibly have that could ever make me money?" Those gifts I thought were completely pointless, maybe even embarrassing? They're exactly what built my multimillion-dollar business and created the School of Greatness. But here's what I wish someone had told me back then - your money story is keeping you trapped at a ceiling you don't even realize exists.
After 12 years of interviewing the world's top financial experts and money masters, I've distilled everything into seven crucial habits that will shift how you think about, earn, and grow money. This isn't about complex investment strategies or get-rich-quick schemes. It's about owning your worth so you can finally earn what you deserve. Whether you're afraid that making money will turn you into a bad person, or you're convinced you don't have any valuable skills, I'm going to show you exactly how to break through those limiting beliefs and discover the hidden gifts that could change your financial future forever.
