Hey Brad Spencer here and I want to shoot a quick video testimonial for my buddy Anil Gupta. Anil has been a really creditable piece for me the last little bit. About a month, you know, five to six weeks ago probably him and I had a conversation and it ended up being... we've been connecting for a few months after I met him at a live event that I spoke at and Anil... you know we try to go back and forth on account of our schedules didn't always work out and everything and then one evening we happened to be talking online and he was like, "Hey can I give you a call?" And I said, "Sure." So it was like 1:30 in them morning. I was just doing work and we got on the phone and we were talking about sales and you know some of the stuff I was doing with sales for our high-end consulting business and you know I kind of brought something up and it was just a side comment that I made but he went down this road I guess you will and we started talking about this. And basically what it was, was you know one of the things that I've dealt with over the years is I'm constantly in chasing mode. So whether I'm working on my dreams, whether I'm working on you know building a better business, building a better relationship with my girlfriend, you know being healthier I'm always chasing something. It's always an external journey so I every time I get to a point where I'm happy with something what I always end up doing is I always end up going to set the next goal. So you know what he said to me was really pressing and it's helped me a ton in the last like five to six weeks. I've had a lot less stress, a lot less work, you know that burdensome work, where you just feel like oh I'm so stressed out. I've got this to do. I've got that to do. Whereas a lot of things I'm doing now are very focused on, you know, the present, you know, situation, whatever I'm dealing with. And what he said to me was, you know, "Wherever you are this is where you are. You have everything you need. You don't need to chase anything else. You have all the money you need. You have all the health you need. You have all the goals that you need. You have all the energy and everything you need to get wherever you might want to go you already have." I'm like that's powerful. Now let me give you some context, okay. Anil is one of those people that like him and I met at the live event. He brought up... you know I still have his business card here on my desk and it was silver business card. So it shines like whenever I'm in the office and I turn the light on or you know if it's visible I always see it and it kind of blinks at me. So you know he's kind of always there with me in that sense. So he stood out to me. But what stood out the most was Anil's passion for helping people get to where they want to go in a very short period of time. And you know in American society I notice this a lot where people are always hunting for something else. There's always the next car to buy. There's always the next house. There's the next clothes. There's the next person to impress. All those things kind of come back to this, you know, permanently dissatisfied state and you know I caught myself, you know, for most of my 20's being in that rat race of constantly wanting something else. You know never being really happy with what I have currently in my life. You know I make really good money. I work with amazing people. We solve a lot of problems. And yet I'm always looking, how can I solve more problems? How can I try to make what I have better? You know it's a constant game of better, better, better, more, more, more and what's funny is he brought this example up and you know after saying that to me. Saying that everything I need I already have right now in my life and in my mind he said to me, he's like, "You know you have your puppy." And for people that know me my dog is, you know, like we call him, my girlfriend and me we joke you know he's our fur kid. So he's like our baby and he really is. I mean we spend that much time with him. And he asks me, "Brad when you're hanging out with Charlie does he think about whether he's hungry or not? Does he think about, you know, what's going on outside? Or does he think about all the animals that are around that he would like to chase or anything?" And I was like, "Well of course not he doesn't. He just thinks about hanging out with me." And he goes, "Exactly. So he's always present in the moment, okay. And you're not. You're always thinking about something else. So I want you to try this. And what he did for me, he gave me an exercise. He was like, "I want you to really be focused on him when he's petting you." Dogs are very energy sensitive so they know when you're off kilter and everything like that. And he's like, "You need to be present with him. Be present and enjoy him and see how much better you feel." So the next morning when I woke up and I was feeding him breakfast and taking him for his morning walk and everything I just hung out with him. I didn't pay attention to my phone. I wasn't thinking about, you know, what calls I needed to make that day or what business needed to be done. I thought just about Charlie and we sat on the couch and I ate my breakfast after he ate his and we sat there and I just looked at him and it was like, you know, I really... I felt like there was a burden lifted off and that's the thing about working with Anil. And this was just... you know like I said it was a 15 to 20 minute conversation in the middle of the night after we had been talking via Facebook for a little bit trying to connect. And I was just amazed at how much power he has to really kind of get to the core of the apple and fix whatever it is that you're struggling with. So if you're really, you know, if you're on the fence with working with him I highly recommend it. He's a very kind individual and you know there's a lot of people that are in the personal development space or work with people and coach and consult and everything, there's ton of them, okay. One of the things that I feel like separates him from everybody is that he's so fast to see and like sense almost like a six sense, you know, I guess, to see really what you need and who you are. So like his emotional intelligence is probably higher than almost anyone I've ever met in that he knows how to be with you. He truly is present when he's talking with you and when he's working with you. He's not thinking about anything else. And you can feel that in the advice that he gives and the example that he gives and the questions that he asks. So he's very much one of those people if you're not into the whole like raw-raw you know pump you up type of stuff but you're more into the self reflective and really getting to the core of the issue and in a very low pressure but enjoyable and pleasurable sense. You know he's great to work with and you know I can't wait to talk with him more. You know I want to do some business with him in the future because he's just great at what he does and I feel like his message needs to be shared with the world. So if you're really looking to work with someone who can make a difference quickly and easily for you and whatever problem you may have, you know, I haven't spoken with him about, you know, like relationships and things like that but what he taught me with just myself has helped me be better in my relationships by being more present in a 15 minute conversation. So he's able to get to the quick things, you know, help you kind of get... eliminate those bottle-necks and then you can leverage that stuff throughout all the other aspects of your life. You know your health, your, you know, your financial security and those types of matters. You know your relationships with your children or your spouse and really anything else that you want to work with. So I think he's great. He's helped me a ton and like I've use this in the last month and a half to close a tremendous amount of business and be a lot less stressed out for that matter, which is, you know, business or not that's a very good thing for me in my life because its something I've struggled with. And he's helped me really figure that out and it was just a 15 minute conversation. So I highly recommend Anil. I think he's a great person. I look forward to getting to know him a ton better and building that relationship over the next, you know, couple decades because he's definitely someone I want to have in my core circle of advisers because he's just... he's incredible. I can't recommend him enough. He gets the two thumbs up and A+ kind of whatever of a metric you want to do, five stars, five diamonds whatever. I think he's great and I can't speak highly of him enough. Thank you very much for watching this video.
