Dr. Jeff Spencer, Ultimate Goal Setting to Win Big | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

But then we need to go from believing we can do it to knowing we can do it. It's different. So when I was working with Dave Asprey at Bulletproof, helping him build Bulletproof, I said, look, Dave, we both believe that Bulletproof can be really big. but we need to now know that we can do it. What do we need to do to go from believing to knowing?"

Or there are a bit of a deviation that comes off something that we presume to be true, but now we found out that it was slightly different. But we had the courage to recognize that we were being gifted with a different direction that could take us to a bigger, better, faster that we could not have conceived of in advance. So that's how I would answer that question.

He said, well, we need more inventory and we need more people at the higher levels in the marketing department. I said, well, what is it gonna take to do that? He said, probably a couple million dollars. I said, you know all the guys in Silicon Valley, you go up there and raise that, let's get this done. So we did it, got it done.

And I do feel that if you find yourself being in blind faith, doing something with the hope that it will take you to the finish line, don't do it. Because unless there's a body of evidence that confirms to you the probability of moving forward will manifest the completion of the next step, then I would suggest that you don't do it.

And at that point, Dave and I both knew that Bulletproof is gonna be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. which it proved itself to be. And we did kind of declare what it is that we needed to get to take us from belief to knowing. That's a really essential step here. And then please, everybody, listen up. Then there's the final step that puts us into the winner's circle.

Because I feel far too often people believe that I'm a person of my word, therefore I have to stick rigidly to something that I declared. And if I don't do that, then my word can't be trusted.
