022. They Want You To Fail
00:37:30

Over the past few years, we’ve had mutating viruses, collusions, media suppression, and spy balloons. It’s almost as if we’ve been watching some bad reality TV show with someone or something pulling the strings.

Look as someone who came from an oppressive country I feel a sense of duty to tell you this:

This someone or something wants you down. They want you sick. They want you docile. They want you unable to think for yourself.

In this episode of the Bedros Keuilian Show, I explain why YOU are the biggest threat to this opposition and why we need to wake up as a society before it’s too late.

021. How To BREAK Your Limiting Beliefs
00:21:53

Life can be tough but it gives you exactly what you’re willing to tolerate. If you tolerate and settle for an average mediocre life, you'll only ever achieve average mediocre results.

020. My $200,000,000 Morning Routine
00:20:24

Every morning I start my day with my Millionaire Morning Routine. Regardless if it’s the weekend, weekday, holiday, or travel – my routine never changes. And I’ve realized over the years that if you’re not successful in life, it's probably because your life is not predictable.

In this new episode of the Bedros Keuilian show I discuss my morning routine in detail and why having Routines, Rules, and Rituals is key to achieving anything you want in life. Look, I didn’t build my $200 million empire by accident, my success is a by-product of the routine, rules, and rituals that I’ve made.

016. F*ck money. Master THIS first.
00:22:56

Look when I was young and wild, I was the king of going out with crazy chicks. But here's the thing, I was to fix others because I didn't know how to fix myself. Self-sabotaging any chance I had to become a better version of myself.

Make no mistake, we all self-sabotage. It shows up by us trying to fix others, turning to vices, or neglecting our health in an attempt to feel better.

Most people think the road to success is similar to the yellow brick road, paved with hope and dreams.

The truth is the road won't always be paved and when starting off in your journey you're going to experience a lot of obstacles and challenges.

007. This Is Why You Need A lot Of Money
00:26:19

I come from a childhood of third world problems where the money ran out before the month. From experience, I can tell you I’d rather have the first world problem of figuring out how to generate more cash flow for one of my businesses. Money won’t solve all your problems, but I can tell you that it is easier to find solutions to them. In today’s episode of the Bedros Keuilian Show, we’re discussing the importance of being financially stout. So you can use money as a tool to get out of debt, weather financial storms, give you more time and freedom, and help you donate to causes and charities that matter to you. It’s time to step out of a third world mindset to focus on first world solutions.

006. Why Women Hate Nice Guys
00:48:01

Are you a 'nice guy' or a 'good guy?' Nice guys are passive, they don't take risks, and are unwilling to speak up for what is right. Good guys, on the other hand, are assertive, take risks, and are willing to fight for what they believe in. The problem is a lot of young men today are 'nice guys' because they are lost. They don't know what it means to be a man. They're looking for purpose and meaning but don't know where to find it. In today’s episode, we’re discussing how weak boys become weak men. Exploring the things that hold them back, and why it is our job as men to raise young boys into strong capable men. So if you’re feeling lost and looking for purpose and meaning in your life. This episode will show you how.

005. How To Build A Better You
00:34:15

003. Redefining Success and Happiness
00:22:16

Success and happiness are NOT the same thing.

Does this sound like you?

You’re successful when it comes to your finances..

…but you’re UNHAPPY in the areas of fitness, family, and fun?

What’s the point of being successful in one area, but then unhappy and unfulfilled in the others?

Today’s episode is about not fusing success and happiness TOGETHER, but also how you can win in ALL areas.

Let us know in the comments what your biggest takeaway was in this episode!

Oct 18, 2022
002. Take It Easy
00:20:22

The “take it easy” mentality is slowly eroding the amount of success you are able to attain

Instead, you should have the FIGHTER JET mentality.

You should be moving forward and taking action steps to continuously improving a bit each day.

Too many people are trying to figure out what their “work/life” balance is instead of going ALL IN…

…and maxing out the best of their capabilities.

Be a fighter jet and NOT a crop duster!

Enjoy this week's episode and again, THANK YOU for all of the amazing feedback

Then, if you want to grow your team, exit the business and take the visionary role, you need to BECOME a mentor.

189. The Power of Gut Instinct
00:47:59

Have you ever been told to "Go with your gut?" It's quite possibly one of the most common pieces of professional advice given. In fact, it's a superpower that a lot of successful entrepreneurs rely on when tough decisions need to be made. It's that small inner voice that helps to decide if you should trust someone, invest in a business, or even walk away from an opportunity if it sounds "too good to be true." However, it takes experience to build that trust with yourself.

In today's Inside Look, Bedros does a deep dive with Howie Zales, an Emmy Award-winning camera operator who, over the last 35 years, has worked across a dozen Super Bowls, multiple Olympic Games, dozens of Wrestlemania PPVs, and 20 Kentucky Derby Horse Races. Howie shares his insight into building a well-paid freelance career, becoming an entrepreneur, the growth mindset it takes to evolve, developing multiple streams of income, why trusting your gut is a smart play, and so much more. 

"Go with your gut. Every time I do it, it's the right decision." 

-Howie Zales

Here's what you don't want to miss:

  • 2:00 Combining your passion with a lifelong career
  • 10:10 Risking your life for what you love
  • 13:36 From freelance camera operator to entrepreneur

186. How Would 2 Foreigners Fix America
00:17:57

If you could snap your fingers and be President of the United States, how would you fix America? 

Whether born into or migrated to this great Nation, we're all constantly overwhelmed with policy changes, promises of economic growth, education reform, healthcare changes, tax reform, social justice, and the list goes on. 

It seems that every policymaker and career politician thinks they can run our homes and businesses better than us. They inundate us with their campaign platforms and candidate promises to fix the trending topic of the month. But how could a career politician who spent their life on the government payroll know what's best for you?

In today's Empire episode, Craig Ballantyne and Bedros Keuilian break down how they would fix America, how the government has no risk of overspending your money, why there should be less friction when creating jobs, and so much more.

You can agree or disagree with these ideas, but, at a minimum, hopefully, they'll get the creative and problem-solving wheels spinning.

00:24:36

How do you show up as a man? Do you suffer in silence, always walking on eggshells, act passive-aggressive, and eventually become hostile towards those around you?

How to Live Your Ultimate Purpose - 141
00:27:33

Do you know how to live your ultimate purpose? People change their business, their process, their strategies so often because they do not have a vision. You need to have a vision of where you want to end up in life! Take that vision and make a plan. Take that plan and be relentlessly disciplined until you achieve what you set out to do! That is what your purpose is. It’s okay if you get there and your purpose changes. Just repeat the process! As long as you have a vision, you will develop your purpose and achieve whatever you set out to do!

 

“Your values and vision drive your daily decision.”

“The service, the product, or the process.”

“Your view on life is going to change, and therefore your purpose will probably shift a little bit too.”

- Craig Ballantyne

 

Here’s what you’ll discover:

06:47 - Nail down your values and vision.

07:52 - How your purpose can change over time.

20:13 - The “Ballantyne Method”

23:55 - Developing purpose is like planting a seed.

 

“If you’re chasing it, you won’t find it. If you’re driven by it, you will find it.”

“There’s always room at the top for the best.”

“Purpose is developed.”

“If we don’t have a sense of purpose... we start digging holes in our lives.”
