Some awesome advice from Bart Miller as we were doing our late night walk.

On this episode Russell talks with Bart Miller from his inner circle about immersing
himself in the things he does instead of dabbling. Here are some of the cool things
to listen for in today’s episode:

 * Find out how Bart made a commitment to get in shape and ended up winning awards
   for body building in under a year.
 * Hear why both Bart and Russell have been able to really commit to things instead
   of dabbling.
 * And find out how you could possibly see Russell standing on stage at Funnel Hacking
   Live in a Speedo!

So listen here to see why it’s so important to be an extremist when you set a goal
to do something.

—Transcript—

Hey everybody, this is Russell Brunson. Welcome to Marketing Secrets podcast. I’m
walking right now with Bart Miller. How you doing, man?

Bart: I’m good, how are you guys?

Russell: Doing awesome. We’re going to show you guys some cool stuff here after 
the intro.

Alright, so we’re out here, it’s freezing cold out here.

Bart: It is cold.

Russell: Bart’s been in the inner circle now for a year and a half and I want to
talk to you about him because he’s taught me some cool stuff, and I think it will
help you guys as well. It makes it harder to walk and talk. It’s going to throw 
the whole thing….

Bart: Another level here going on, I love it.

Russell: So I’m going to embarrass Bart, because he doesn’t even know what I’m going
to ask, I just turned the camera on. First off, for background for those who don’t
know, he runs a couple of businesses. What are the core things you usually run?

Bart: So we have an Amazon business, we have a makeup school and Russell tries to
keep me as focused as possible on those two things. So we’ll just say those.

Russell: As he does everything else. The other ones he refuses to tell me about 
because I will tease him forever.

So this is what I want to talk about. We hung out, when was it we went to Dallas?

Bart: That’s been a year ago.

Russell: So a year ago we went down there because we working on the beauty school
and we filmed an episode of Funnel Hacker TV, which actually is the next episode,
I don’t know if you knew that.

Bart: I didn’t know that. Cool.

Russell: The end of the last one said, “Up next week,” and it had that thing with
Collette.

Bart: How did I miss that, I watched it.

Russell: It was after the credits. Anyway, next episode is going to be showing that
whole story. It shows me wearing skinny jeans and bunch of other things.

Bart: Which was amazing, by the way.

Russell: Oh skinny jeans. Anyway, so what I think was interesting and why I love
Bart so much, why I just wrote him a big huge check to come kick my butt is because
after that, you’ve always been into fashion but that wasn’t your thing. We talked
about it, “Okay, Bart you should be doing fashion for people.” And then he got intense
and obsessed in it and just was awesome. And he basically at the last Funnel Hacking
Live, dressed me, dressed half the inner circle and a bunch of other people.

Then fast forward 7 or 8 months, since Funnel Hacking Live, when was it you decided
you were going to get ripped and shredded and everything?

Bart: So my son was leaving on an LDS mission, and I’ve been racing bikes for the
last 7 years and I just always wanted fitness, because a lot of people think it’s
easy to be fit all the time. And I’m here to tell you, and don’t tell my family 
this, but my mom’s obese, my sister’s obese, my dad’s obese, I know it runs in my
family. I’m probably taking way too long here, but what I’m saying is, my son, I
wanted to spend time with him before he was leaving and getting out of the house.

That was a year ago, so I decided I was going to start lifting, and then Russell’s
going to tell you I’m afraid, that I’m an extremist.

Russell: Which is actually the moral of the story, this is a good thing, not a bad
thing.

Bart: So I get super extreme into things. And that’s why I hired Russell really,
for inner circle to be honest with you. We’ll get into that, but anyway, I couldn’t
take it anymore and I went after the best coach in the world in my space, which 
is physique and body building and I hired him. So I fly to California every month
for a full week and I lift with him, then I fly home, implement it all and then 
I fly back and do more. I did my first show in California with him, did my second
show in Boise. At the first show I won an overall, and 40+ category and took second
in the 35+ category. So I was super, super stoked, blessed, but put all the hard
work into motion, made it happen.

Russell: Awesome. Okay the battery is about to die, I’m going to grab my phone and
finish this because I still haven’t got to the point of what I want to share with
you guys. Alright we’ll be right back.

Alright the battery died, but now we got it back. So you missed our walk, it was
really fun.

Bart: It was amazing.

Russell: Went four miles, it was awesome. So I don’t remember exactly where we left
off, but it was somewhere between why I respect Bart and why you guys should listen
to what he’s going to say right now. So my question, not my question, but my observation,
I would love to get your thoughts on it, is just….the battery is going to die again
now. We may go back to the phone in a second here.

But it’s basically, when you go into something, you don’t dabble. Some people in
life, they dabble, “I’m going to do this, I’m going to do this, or do this.” You’re
like, “I’m going to get fit. I can’t remember if you talked about this or not, but
you went and hired a weight lifting coach who lives in a different state, you fly
out there one week a month, work out with him, come back, and then you sign up for
body building competitions, all sorts of stuff. It wasn’t just like, “Oh I’m going
to get in shape.” And then you do it for two or three days and then you quit like
most people do, including this guy right here sometimes. You went insanely all in.

I just think that that is cool and people should learn from that.

Bart: Thanks, so one thing I’ll just tell you. The camera’s on and I’m a talker,
Russell knows it.

Russell: That one died as well. We’re back again, we’re on the new phone now.

Bart: So you guys get the honor and the privilege to see Tony at his event coming
up, which is why we’re getting fit. But on that note, I learned this from Tony Robins,
he said, “If the pain doesn’t outweigh the pleasure, you’ll never be successful.”
At the time I was like, are you kidding me? And I really didn’t understand it.

And then he made it really clear. He said, “If you want to quit smoking, or you 
want anything in life, that if you’ll make something so painful, that you have to
get there. Like you have to accomplish it.” For example, if I wrote a check for 
a half a million dollars, let’s say I was super wealthy like Russell. I wrote a 
check for an enormous amount of money to a charity that I absolutely detested, and
if I failed at that, then XYZ could cash that check. That pain would outweigh me
ever getting there.

So the pain of me getting on stage and not looking my very best was enough to, I
would give up anything. I never cheated on my diet or anything one time because 
I knew that if I failed, I couldn’t live with myself.

Russell: You’d be embarrassed in a Speedo on stage.

Bart: Totally. Well, not in a Speedo.

Russell: And actually, by the way, when I started this process, he was like, “What
is the thing that’s going to cause you the most pain?” I was like, “Honestly if 
I ever had to get on stage in a Speedo with a black tan, that would be the worst.”
So if I don’t hit my goals, you guys will see me on stage.

Bart: You’ll see Russell doing an event. And that’s the thing, if I could you any
advice, it’s the same advice Tony did. So when I commit to something, I always tie
it to “what’s the consequence”. And I shouldn’t be teaching this to Russell because
now he’s going to do this crap to me. This is a horrible podcast. Don’t listen to
this again.

Anyway, the moral of the story is, you’ve got to put something there that helps 
you not just get there, but you’re going to make it because if you don’t this consequence
is extreme for you. If you say you’re going to have a funnel every week and you 
don’t accomplish that, you need to have something so serious that there’s just no
way you’re going to fail doing that. And that’s what I’ve learned in my life to 
push me to that next level, and that’s why I did it.

Russell: That’s awesome. So I’ve seen Bart do it twice in two different things right
now, and it’s super inspiring. In fact, it was like a year ago, when you came and
worked out at my place the first time with Anthony here. You were just kind of doing
some stuff. Then here today he was kind of taking the show, “Hey Russell, do this,
do this.” I was like, dang. This is a different Bart in less than a year, which 
is insanely cool. But it’s because you go all in and you don’t dabble. It’s awesome.

Bart: It’s like you said, immerge in yourself. It’s the same thing you teach, you
don’t have to be only a few steps ahead of everybody else to be successful, but 
if you total immerse, it’s the same thing that Tony Robins preaches, and you’re 
the best at it. Russell commits to things he should never commit to. I mean it serious.
Have you seen his life?

Russell: My wife’s like, “Why are you doing this?”

Bart: Yeah, but it’s the same thing I’m doing. He puts himself through so much pain
that if he doesn’t get it done, he knows he’ll never accomplish it if he doesn’t
do it. Just like taking this challenge right now. He does not have time to get ripped
for Funnel Hacking Live, let’s be clear. But we’re out here at 10 o’clock at night.
How many other people are sitting doing something else? And while we’re doing it,
we’re creating a podcast. He utilizes time like crazy, it’s insane. But he does 
the exact same thing that he’s complimenting me for, but it’s the same model he 
runs every single day of his life. So learn from that and you’ll be super successful.

Russell: There you go guys, you heard it here first. So thanks Bart for hanging 
out man, and for the walk and the workout, and for, I got a sweat belt on, this 
is sucking all the fat out of me. Dude, I’m going to be so ripped, it’s going to
be amazing. And if not, you’ll see me in a Speedo, which would be the worst thing
ever. Let’s all pray that I stick to my goals.

Bart: Hey everybody, send him really clean food, nothing for the holidays, be nice.

Russell: No junk food. This guy’s going to be gone my FHL. Anyway, if you don’t 
have your tickets yet, go to funnelhackinglive.com. Bart, you’re going to be there,
hanging out for the party.

Bart: Hanging out for sure.

Russell: So when you’re there, grab him and pay him to help get you dressed nice
and get you fit, it’ll be awesome. Anyway guys, appreciate you all. Thank you man,
for hanging out. See you guys later.

Bart: Bye
