new tricks now I'm not saying that any
1:49
of you out there are old dogs and I'm
1:51
certainly not going to call myself a dog
1:53
ruff ruff but the question is can you
1:56
teach an old dog new tricks and who
1:59
better to answer this question and get
2:01
involved in the conversation is one of
2:03
my very bestest friends in the whole
2:05
world his name is Casey Everhart and he
2:08
has been an entrepreneur probably since
2:10
he turned five
2:12
I mean really since he turned five
2:13
because his story is pretty amazing and
2:15
he continues to be an entrepreneur he he
2:19
had a he actually ran an amusement park
2:22
yes he worked on an oscar-winning film
2:25
he I mean he does he's done so many
2:27
different things and I met up with him
2:28
and actually we became friends long
2:30
after he was in the amusement park
2:32
business and long after the Oscar thing
2:34
but he is still one of the most
2:36
fascinating people I have ever met and
2:38
he lives his passion he lives it he
2:40
breathes it and that is why we have him
2:43
here today and so we bring in Casey
2:45
Eberhardt hello my friend how are you
2:47
I'm so awesome turning it ought to be a
2:49
sin and for those of you who just heard
2:53
that and wonder why I say that all the
2:55
time now you know because we are both in
2:58
12 or 13 states it probably is so yeah
3:00
there you go there you go so Casey as
3:04
you I'm just so excited that you're here
3:05
I want to ask this question I ask all my
3:07
guests Casey Eberhardt what is your
3:10
little white lie well you know Karen uh
3:14
there are several of them but the one
3:16
that the one we don't reveal at the top
3:18
of the show anyway is I I have told
3:22
myself for years that I am a person that
3:25
can focus and follow one course and
3:28
really try to dial down and here's the
3:30
reality as an entrepreneur I have to let
3:34
that go and I have to kind of come out
3:36
of the closet so to speak and and kind
3:38
of share with the world that one of the
3:40
things that makes up my makeup or my
3:43
chemical makeup behind green or behind
3:45
the the video is that I am all over the
3:48
place I am going in 35 40 50 different
3:51
directions at all times and I agree I
3:54
find that that is the most that's the
3:59
most effective and efficient way for me
4:01
to get through stuff it's not for
4:03
everybody
4:03
but I do I do certainly IIM the
4:10
proverbial squirrel that chases the
4:12
shiny object I think the word squirrel
4:14
and that whole thing was actually
4:16
invented for you quite frankly it does
4:18
take a lot to keep up with you but quite
4:21
frankly when we can keep up with you we
4:24
have the time of our lives so I want to
4:26
ask you can you rip can you teach an old
4:27
dog new tricks I mean you've done so
4:29
many things can you teach an old dog new
4:32
tricks well yeah I mean I first think
4:34
that we need to define old dog right all
4:37
right and I think that's just anybody
4:39
going through life that is ready to make
4:42
a change whether that's a transition in
4:44
different age categories you know I'm a
4:45
puppy to a to a major or I'm a kid to a
4:49
teenager a teenager to a pre adult a pre
4:51
adult to a to an adult adult moving on
4:55
in different chapters of their life so I
4:57
think if you if you take that question
4:58
you know you know does that mean that as
5:01
we go through our journey here on the
5:04
planet that we can and are set up for
5:08
changing directions and reinventing
5:10
ourselves and and coming out of the
5:12
closet with our little white lies
5:14
absolutely I think that I think the one
5:18
downside of that were the one thing that
5:21
kind of holds people back is going
5:23
through life there's also a group of
5:25
people or a group of outside influencers
5:30
that sometimes convince us that we're
5:33
not teaching our kin we're not coachable
5:35
or that that we've been told that we
5:37
can't earn any money or that we're told
5:39
that were an introvert or that we're a
5:40
Wallflower that we're told we have to
5:42
dye our hair because society doesn't
5:45
like white hair or you know we're we are
5:48
we are fed messages all day and all
5:51
night long in the real world as I you
5:55
know as we'll call it that tell us that
5:57
we're not but the real funny is we can
6:00
absolutely be taught new tricks
6:02
I think the first thing that has to
6:04
happen in order for that to occur is we
6:07
have to be open to learning and you know
6:09
in the business world we like coachable
6:11
in the real world you know the non non
6:13
business world we say you know are you
6:16
open to change
6:17
can you reinvent exactly exactly and you
6:20
know as you're listening in guys whether
6:21
you're listening on replay or you're
6:23
listening why live think about this I
6:25
mean do you consider yourself a an old
6:28
dog do you do you think that you are
6:31
having to learn new tricks Betty Ann
6:33
says I hope to learn a new trick till
6:36
I'm a hundred why stop at a hundred that
6:38
is the
6:39
this is how well we know each other I
6:40
learned the second bit was like Oh Karen
6:44
is gonna beat me to the beat well but
6:49
it's true I mean we have some personal
6:51
history around this right right right
6:54
right now you're sitting down in Los
6:56
Angeles at in a hotel getting ready for
6:58
an event right yep yep and I remember
7:02
many years ago you and I sitting I think
7:04
in that very hotel sitting in the coffee
7:06
shop right and you know you would come
7:09
out on on all my events you've been
7:11
speaking for me all over the place and I
7:14
was so busy telling you that I was not
7:17
an internet marketer I remember that
7:19
conversation do you yeah very clearly
7:22
yeah you actually came out of the closet
7:24
Internet yeah I was kind of it because
7:28
well first of all I had a very negative
7:30
connotation about that and but you kind
7:34
of splaine's yourself and you explained
7:36
to me how that was something that I
7:39
needed to embrace and jump into and
7:41
accept and in fact I became teachable in
7:45
that moment so what other what other
7:48
ways can we help people and our viewers
7:52
our listeners whether now are on replay
7:54
that they can become teachable that they
7:56
can be you know literally learn new
7:59
tricks yeah you know I think you know I
8:03
have said many many times that at the
8:07
end of the day nothing changes until the
8:09
pain of aging is less than the pain of
8:11
staying the same right so a lot of times
8:14
we are kind of forced into being
8:17
coachable or teachable we go through a
8:19
life altering a life altering event
8:22
whether we lose a loved one whether we
8:25
are diagnosed with a fatal illness
8:28
whether we lose a job whether we get
8:32
disowned by our parents whether we you
8:35
know there's a whole host of
8:36
life-altering events that kind of force
8:39
us to become trainable or key to pull or
8:43
do something different but there's also
8:46
something a maturity level I think that
8:48
as we go through you know we just kind
8:50
of get fed up with being fed up you
8:52
the cliche you kind of get sick and
8:55
tired of being sick and tired that's
8:56
true and so it's always kind of amazing
8:59
to me I think that there are points in
9:02
our journey that for whatever reason can
9:05
spark a change or a pivot or a different
9:11
way of being you know I remember when my
9:13
mom retired and my mom was a very very
9:16
active member of the community she was a
9:18
high school principal that was dialed in
9:21
to politics the local politics of our
9:23
town and you know this is an amazing
9:25
woman that spent her career being in
9:28
front of the public eye dealing with
9:31
thousands of people on a given time and
9:32
I remember the day she retired the
9:34
Monday after she retired she looked at
9:36
me and she was like well now what I
9:37
don't know I yeah you know and here we
9:43
are a few years later and I look at my
9:45
mom and it always cracks me up and
9:47
sometimes we talk about this that you
9:49
know here my mom was engulfed in her
9:52
work she was a very she was a bigwig in
9:56
the educational hierarchy in Washington
9:59
State and now my mom is playing my mom
10:04
is playing poker
10:05
my mom is golfing my mom is like hanging
10:08
out at the gym my mom is like going on
10:11
theater trips in Europe like the
10:12
craziest stuff then as a kid I would
10:15
have never thought she would have done
10:16
how wonderful is that though so I'm not
10:19
gonna call your mom an old dog god
10:20
forbid I would never do that but she has
10:23
learned how to be somebody in this new
10:27
new this new student this new skin I
10:31
mean my husband is retiring at the end
10:34
of October and he's going through some
10:36
of the same thing what next what does
10:38
this mean does this mean and I know a
10:40
lot of people when they go through
10:41
getting ready to retire retirement
10:44
doesn't have to be death I mean and and
10:46
there are many people to think when you
10:48
retire that means at the end of you your
10:50
world and we're here to tell you
10:51
regardless of what age you're at
10:54
whatever skin that you're in whether you
10:57
want to retire at 40 because you can or
10:59
whether you want to continue working
11:01
till you're 90 because you can it
11:03
doesn't matter I think Karen I think
11:06
it all comes down to his choice we're
11:09
all given the same well that's not
11:12
actually true I'll say it come down a
11:14
lot to choice right you know I look at
11:16
myself and when I use the word retire I
11:19
think that that means something to me
11:21
that it might mean different to somebody
11:23
else right retirement simply means that
11:26
I have more residual income coming in
11:28
than my bill like at that second I'm
11:32
retired
11:33
right and so you know what you know kind
11:36
of my latest iteration of what I've done
11:39
is I have really taken on the journey of
11:43
getting to retirement quickly doesn't
11:46
mean I'm gonna stop doing what I'm doing
11:47
it doesn't mean I'm gonna stop what it
11:48
simply means is that at that point I'm
11:50
gonna have choice right exactly
11:53
when you look at retirement and going
11:54
into this whole dog new tricks
11:56
conversation there are so many things
11:59
that are open to all of us at any given
12:04
time whether it's learning how to invest
12:06
in real estate whether it's learning to
12:08
trade stock on the stock market creating
12:12
forex or maybe if you want to have a
12:14
social a social element joining a
12:17
network marketing opportunity and
12:18
putting together a a culture a culture
12:22
around a social environment whether it's
12:25
going to start a charity or a non-profit
12:28
something that you've always had a
12:30
passion for a group of people a
12:32
community that you wanted to serve you
12:34
get the opportunity to step into that
12:36
really the the new trick if you will and
12:39
I'll put new trick in quotation marks is
12:41
simply how to pay for it exactly and
12:44
you're a master at that because you are
12:46
a master at creating multiple streams of
12:48
income for exactly what you're talking
12:50
about and it's not too late for anyone
12:52
to to step into that as you've said
12:54
there's many ways to do it if you're
12:55
flipping homes or your network marketing
12:57
whatever it is that you're doing
12:59
Betty green Betty Ann green said my mom
13:02
at 96 in the nursing home decided she
13:04
was there to help the others who
13:05
couldn't function as well as she whether
13:07
it was representing them at the
13:09
residence meetings or helping them play
13:11
bingo big lesson for me that's awesome
13:13
that yet that that's exactly it
13:16
exactly III think - you know what I
13:20
is fine is I learn from other people
13:24
that have gone before that journey in
13:25
front of me right I've learned you know
13:28
if I'm gonna look at a network marketing
13:30
opportunity the fact that I can go to an
13:32
event and I can see a hundred year old
13:34
little old lady you know talking about
13:36
compensation plans or flippin real
13:39
estate or collecting art or you know
13:41
turning over a collection or whatever
13:44
like I love learning from people and
13:48
talking to people about their stories
13:50
because you never know what opportunity
13:52
is gonna crack open if you have those
13:54
conversations and so the one trip that I
13:57
think we could all learn or get better
14:00
at is asking great questions
14:04
and and being present with the answers
14:08
and looking for those opportunities in
14:11
those answers of meeting other people
14:13
and their stories you have a quote that
14:15
you like to say opportunities
14:16
opportunities multiply as they are
14:19
seized
14:20
it's an old it's an old Sun zoo or
14:23
whatever that quoted group is or ancient
14:27
Chinese secret or whatever but it's you
14:31
know it's interesting and I know we're
14:33
not gonna have a ton of time to talk on
14:35
this but here's the reality the reality
14:38
that some people will say Oh put your
14:41
head down and focus only do one thing
14:43
you know create success in one area well
14:46
what I find is that those folks are
14:48
never shown other opportunities because
14:50
they're so closed-minded and they got
14:52
their blinders on you know how is the
14:54
example I'm like if you look at some of
14:56
the big powerful influential people of
14:58
our time Gandhi Oprah Winfrey any of the
15:02
presidents Richard Branson Robert
15:04
Kiyosaki you know Barbara Corcoran you
15:07
know some of the biggest entrepreneurs
15:09
of our time I want to just go you don't
15:12
think that they seize opportunities that
15:14
they look at other opportunities that
15:16
they are open to taking it doesn't mean
15:19
they're gonna jump on every opportunity
15:20
but they keep there they keep their ears
15:23
open to opportunity and I think that's
15:26
one of the biggest things when you go
15:27
through life and you're coming into a
15:30
second or third chapter of your life or
15:32
12th or 13th chapter
15:33
just really keep your opportunities open
15:37
and keep your eyes open and keep your
15:39
perspective open because the minute we
15:41
close down and the minute we shut down
15:42
and put our blinders on it only go to
15:45
one little thing that's where it turns
15:48
into stubborn I'm right and you don't
15:51
open yourself up to opportunity Oh true
15:53
oh my gosh
15:54
so could i and so much so much of value
15:56
that you're saying right now and this is
15:58
a short show unfortunately so we're not
16:00
going to be able to deep dive into this
16:02
but we will have you back and we'll deep
16:04
dive after that I want to put up your
16:07
Facebook profile page actually your
16:09
business page facebook.com cassie fan go
16:12
check it out all sorts of amazing
16:14
content in golden nuggets the case he
16:17
puts out there and if you really want to
16:19
go check out what's going on with Casey
16:21
and maybe expand your business maybe
16:23
create some you know multiple streams of
16:26
income
16:26
Casey is the one to do it go to expand
16:29
the business com so Casey any
16:32
last-minute thoughts about teaching dog
16:34
oh there and there's my dog teaching
16:36
dogs pick there you go
16:39
any any other thoughts a little less of
16:41
your ass in the screen that would be
16:43
fantastic I got a dog to either be in or
16:50
cow yeah in or out um
16:55
you don't look caring here's the thing
16:58
is we are all about expansion right and
17:02
and the blue sea of the blue sea of
17:04
abundance is out there for us to get on
17:06
a boat and and fly through right so
17:09
often we play and are told and are
17:11
pulled back into the red sea of scarcity
17:13
but you know as we all move through this
17:17
journey just be expansive think big
17:20
dream like you did when you were five
17:22
when you were five you wanted to be a
17:23
fireman or a policeman or the president
17:25
of United States or whatever those
17:28
expansion those expansion dreams and
17:31
thoughts are what will keep us moving in
17:34
a forward direction my grandfather my
17:36
grandfather pointed out when I was
17:39
really really little two lessons he
17:42
taught me that always give more value
17:44
than anybody expects to receive and
17:46
everything will be okay
17:47
and that my favorite fish when I was a
17:49
little tiny kid was a shark and one of
17:51
the things that my grandfather taught me
17:53
as a shark is that a shark always has to
17:56
be moving forward they cannot stop they
17:58
cannot move backwards because if they
17:59
stop or move backwards they sink to the
18:01
bottom and drown and I always thought
18:03
about that so I always like to look at
18:05
like a little shark just going through
18:07
the water even though it might be slow
18:08
they're always on the prowl they're
18:10
always looking they're always looking
18:11
out in front of them and they're already
18:13
surveying the scene for opportunity and
18:15
