I just went into Coach Mike. How do I do that real quick? Economides, I would have got it right. All right, I’m gonna do a three, two, one. So sorry, Angel.

It’s Economides.
Michael Stansbury (00:29.441)
Angel’s the assistant that edits everything. Michael Economides, did I do that right? Coach Mike, here we go in three, two, one. Welcome to the Real Estate Pros Podcast. I’m Mike Stansbury and today my special guest is Coach Mike. Michael Economides, Michael how are you sir? Good sir, man we’re excited to have you guys. This podcast brought to you by Investor Fuel. Investor Fuel is a real estate
Coach Michael Economides (00:48.728)
Great, how you doing today?
Michael Stansbury (00:57.557)
mastermind and what we do is we help real estate investors, service providers and real estate entrepreneurs, two to five X their business to allow them to build the businesses they’ve always wanted and to allow them to live the lives they’ve always dreamed of. Coach Mike, how goes it today? What market are you in, Coach Mike?
Coach Michael Economides (01:16.57)
I am in the mindset coaching market, which I pretty much leadership confidence. mean, mindset is pretty much roles around everything. So I’m more geared towards entrepreneurs, business owners, real estate investors, bankers, the higher achievers.
Michael Stansbury (01:31.435)
the higher achievers, so you stay in that get it done, alpha mode guys that are just getting stuff done. tell me a little bit, how did you get started in that business? Kind what was the precursor for you getting into being a mindset coach? What does that look like?
Coach Michael Economides (01:46.35)
So I went to school for business and you know, in business school, you don’t really learn about business, which school you don’t learn about what you go to school for until you actually go do it. I owned a couple of businesses. What I never thought I got into this ever in my life would have ever thought doing this, but I went through some health stuff I had in 2018 for about four years. had over 50 pulmonary embolisms, which is a blood clotting lung. If any of the people don’t know, I died multiple times, came back.
They diagnosed me at five different blood clon disorders and every sarcoidosis that you can have, all three of them, optical, neurological, and pulmonary. And I also have adrenaline disorder. So when I take medicine, my body fights it. When they try to put me to sleep, my body fights it. So basically I had to stay awake for some surgeries, which is crazy. But, um, so I got into that and then the whole time I just, they kept telling me this is serious, this is serious. I’m like, yeah, whatever. I’m ready to go home. I got stuff to do. And
At the same time, I watched my dad’s best friend got diagnosed with MS. Just diagnosed with it. No symptoms, no nothing. And from that day on, he started telling himself he was sick, he was sick, he was sick. He’s dead. He basically put himself into the ground by completely just telling himself what exactly he was, what he wasn’t. So I just started getting into it. Man, as long as you think, your mind is everything. Started researching more, started studying more about the minds, and I’m like, you know.
I was like, you need to teach me how do this because I don’t know a single person that could keep on going through all this crap and just keep on pushing and keep on smiling. And the doctor walks in the room at the hospital and says, who’s the patient? Cause I got jeans on and a shirt. I’m not putting a gown on. I’m not wearing that tent. So from that point on, was just like, I was like, you need to teach people how to do this, how to get this mindset in every business and everything. I’m like, maybe I should. Then I started doing it, researching more and here I am.
Michael Stansbury (03:38.229)
Wow. So one of the things that’s particularly interesting about that is, so if I’m going dig into your friend who he got diagnosed with MS and it’s one of those things when you, when you trust authority like that and you’ve been taught to trust authority your whole life. And even if you feel like, Hey, I feel like I’m good. But you, if you put all your eggs in the basket of the experts, right? You, you, you believe them, right?
So, and you watched him basically die, perish, because he believed that he had MS.
Coach Michael Economides (04:17.39)
mean, he talked himself into it. I’m telling him, within a month or so, he started shaking. And the doctor’s like, he’s doing this to himself.
Michael Stansbury (04:25.931)
Wow, okay, yeah. so you had all these medical ailments happen to you, but at the same time, you kept your mind sharp and saying, okay, these things are happening, but what can I do to overcome this? Tell me about that. So tell me if there was a moment where you were like, okay, I’m down, but I’ve gotta dig myself out of this hole, how am I doing that? And then how did you do that? I mean, because 50, you said 50.
pulmonary embolisms and what kind of and what does that mean like what is one how does one feel
Coach Michael Economides (05:04.694)
So to tell you the truth, I really didn’t care about any of it, which is crazy. I tried to think about it all the time. can’t know what I really just didn’t give a damn. basically, had a knee surgery in 2018. Just went in for knee surgery. And when I came out, I stood up. I mean, I obviously had a pain in my leg, but I had a pain towards my groin. And then I woke up hauling butt down the hospital in the bed, going to the hospital. I’m like, what’s going on? You have a clot that moved to your lung, and we got to stop it before it gets to your heart. I’m like, OK.
Michael Stansbury (05:12.236)
Right.
Coach Michael Economides (05:32.206)
She’s like, this is a big deal. like, all right. Five days later, I’m in the hospital. They start telling me all this stuff. And all my friends and family, always get aggravated with me. They’re like, what’s the doctor say? I’m like, I have no idea. I don’t know. I’m not, you want to know? Come to the doctor’s appointment and listen to him. Well, can record it for you because when he tells me, it sounds like, womp, womp, womp, womp, womp, womp, I really don’t care. Until he said, you have to slow down life, stop life. I whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I’m not slowing down, nothing. You’re to have to do, I’m like, my body in motion stays in motion.
And I mean, look, don’t get it was hell. Cause I mean, for four years straight, was in and out of the hospital. had lung surgery where they had to take half my lung. Had to do a check. They had to separate my chest plate from my body. I mean, it was, had to put a filter in me, stay awake for that. And it was hell. It’s like, it’s going to feel like a beast thing. I don’t know what kind of bees they have in med school, but they must be pretty damn big. Cause it’s a hell of a beast thing. But it was just, I guess it’s every time they told me something, I was like, Nope, I’m not going to slow down. I’m going keep moving. I’m going keep moving.
Michael Stansbury (06:03.831)
Right.
Michael Stansbury (06:23.787)
Right?
Coach Michael Economides (06:31.162)
And it got some, it got some time. got just draining of switching medicine cotton, switching medicine cotton until they switched me to these two injections a day in my stomach, which was like shooting jet fuel on fire into your stomach twice a day. It’s horrible. But I also had a 0 % I had a zero blood clot factor. So I cut myself. I was in bleeder death and I was still throwing blood clots. So my body, it didn’t matter. I had a filter put in. It made the blood clot above the filter.
So they’re like, take the filter out. Your body is one of its own kind. We don’t know what to do. When they started saying we don’t know what to do, I said, well, then what am I doing this for? And then one day I said, you know what? I didn’t have any of these problems until 2018 when y’all started throwing all this medicine at me. I didn’t have a clot. And I probably had more than 50 blood cuts because I’ve had my same pain at home. And I’m just like, ah, just growing pain. I’m not going to the hospital. I’m not going back there. I know what it is. It is what it is. Then I could do anything about
So I got off the medicine, against doctors, you’re such high risk. said, I’m clotting on it. What risk am I taking here? So I got off of it, no clots. Doctor started talking back and getting on it. One of my friends, a cardiologist, I got back on it, shoot, clot.
Michael Stansbury (07:42.999)
How about that?
Coach Michael Economides (07:50.828)
I’m like, I’m done. I ain’t taking this no more. So I’ve been off of medicine for about coming up on two years now and I haven’t had a, well, hadn’t had a clot yet. Right now I think I might something, but it’s just a growing pain. As long as I tell myself it’s a growing pain and keep pushing forward, it tends to work.
Michael Stansbury (08:05.407)
Yeah. So yeah, and because I’ve never, so what happens when you do have a clot? What happens to your body? How do you feel it? And then what do you do kind of right when you’re going through that?
Coach Michael Economides (08:18.264)
So sometimes they start in my leg and I can feel it’s like a bad pain below your groin and you just gotta watch it. If it starts moving up, go to the hospital. But it hit me quick. would be boom boom in my lung. I get shortness of breath like walking from here to the door in the office and I’m shortness of breath. Chest pain, I get coughing real bad. So I just go to the I know pack a bag because I’m gonna be there five days. So I go there, pack a bag. It’s just uncomfortable like tight feeling.
It’s different for me because they even said it just, I take it differently they said, but it’s just a pain in your chest that just not, just, that out of breathness, you’ll know right off the bat.
Michael Stansbury (08:58.283)
Right, yeah, that’s the big symptom. All right, so Coach Mike, this happened all pre-COVID. And so COVID happens and they start telling you to take, it during COVID? Did that, okay, okay, gotcha. Okay, well, did that color anything about like taking medicines and things like that? You know, what if, you know, not to get too, I always like to give people as much information as possible, but you know,
Coach Michael Economides (09:04.6)
During COVID.
Well, was a year to go into it,
Michael Stansbury (09:25.489)
I’ve had similar experiences where I haven’t taken a prescription drug in about 10 years and both my parents are in medicine. And so it drives them crazy, I’m kind of healthy. I kind of eat right. I kind of work out and kind of take care of myself. I have family members who are like, hey, know, we have, in our family, have a history of cholesterol. Okay, well, all right, fine.
Coach Michael Economides (09:37.826)
Yeah, exactly.
Coach Michael Economides (09:52.6)
You ever seen a new study that says that genes don’t run like that? Like they say, you got high blood pressure runs in your family. No, it doesn’t. It doesn’t go from gene to gene high blood pressure. Get the hell out of here.
Michael Stansbury (10:02.733)
I know, but it’s interesting though, it’s funny though, because I have to check myself because there are things rolling around here in this head that I’ve, oh, somebody told me that, and I automatically, I just recall it. Oh, okay, yeah, I guess we do have it. And then I’m like, well, do I have it? And it’s one of those things that, like you talked about, you’re a mindset coach, is sometimes you gotta go back and kinda go, oh, why do I believe what I believe? And maybe there’s gotta be a hard reset here. So take me through, you actually went through all this.
and you had to deal with your mindset. Now, how do you help other people and what kind of people are you helping now? Kind of give us those stories, Coach Mike.
Coach Michael Economides (10:40.366)
So first off, your mind only knows what you teach and tell it. Simple as that. It only gets what you put in there. So if you’re putting stuff garbage or whatever you’re telling it, that’s what you’re going to know. So they just I saw it. I just read this thing about depression. Most people depressed. They think about problems, talk about problems. Our life is problems. That’s depression. If you have a problem, you leave it where it is. You bring a solution with it. Don’t bring the problem. And we just had someone on a podcast yesterday talk about that, you know.
Yes, you might have had a traumatic event happen when you were a child or whatever, but that’s something that it happened. You gotta know that. You can’t let it keep dramatically impacting your life.
Michael Stansbury (11:18.315)
Yeah, you can’t just ruminate on it. Yes. Yeah.
Coach Michael Economides (11:20.974)
That’s the biggest thing. I mean, first off, find out what the main, like I have a program, but it’s kind of a tailor to each person. That whole cookie cutter thing where you can go watch videos and I can’t stand that. I think that’s all about just somebody that doesn’t care about coaching or helping people that care about making money. So I tailor it to each client. Most of time it’s business leaders or business owners or entrepreneurs that they’re going, most of the time they’re actually, I’ve done it before. I opened a new home and garden center. I was doing it.
You work, work, work, work, work, you’re so in mind into that. Your relationship, your kids, your family, all that other stuff, you think in your mind that they understand that I’m working, that I’m doing a good, that I have to do what I gotta do. No, they don’t. They don’t. They think you’re ignoring them. They think that you’re not making time for them. So while you’re busting butt over here working, you think you’re doing the right thing, not. You’re ignoring everything else and that starts falling apart. So everything you work so hard for is about to be, then I can tell you, hey, you need to stop doing it. No, they’re gonna wait till the end and say, I’m done.
And by that time, it’s too late. So I get them there. I like point out, I try to get them to start thinking about what’s going on in every day, what they’re doing, what’s falling apart. Are they actually just putting on a smile, getting out of bed every day and they’re really not happy? Or are they just going through the freaking steps every single day over and over and over? And that’s not a life you want to have. mean, it’s just, and so many people do it every single day. It’s whether people want to be honest with themselves or not. lot of people get up every morning smiling, but they’re not smiling.
Michael Stansbury (12:21.227)
Right?
Michael Stansbury (12:46.571)
Right. They’re smiling on the outside and they haven’t dealt with all the fun stuff. And so you just bring it out. You just say, hey, let’s get to realville and talk about, what are your kids, when’s the last time you spent a really good quality time with your kids, your relationships, and you keep the main thing the main thing. So before you even fix the business, if they had a business mindset, you’re starting with like, hey, what’s really most important? Yeah.
Coach Michael Economides (12:51.597)
Mm-hmm.
Coach Michael Economides (13:09.262)
Correct. And fitness, because there’s no, if you can’t have, you can’t have a mindset, unbreakable mindset, you can’t have this confidence. If you can’t walk past the mirror and smile at your body, it just doesn’t happen. You can’t be disciplined in business, disciplined in mindset, disciplined in confidence, but then you’re not disciplined at all in your health, your fitness, nothing like that. You’re just overweight, you’re out of shape, it doesn’t happen. It all works hand in hand. So I do, I added fitness to it because I mean, I work out every day. I used to fitness train, so I added that to it.
Michael Stansbury (13:38.401)
Well, mean, the data is out there. And one of the things I love about kind of where we are at now in this, in this point in time is like everybody’s filtering things. they’re filtering things in a better way. I mean, it’s, you’ve got a lot of, people that are good influencer talking about fitness in a way to prescribe for, like you said earlier, depression. stop talking, go out for a walk, go ruck.
Go do something like that. And so with your mindset coaching, so you include the head and fitness, what is it like? If you were to coach me, Coach Mike, what are the steps that you’d take me through? What are the questions that you ask one of your clients? How does that work?
Coach Michael Economides (14:32.174)
First of I want to know what your daily life is. Like, what do you do? Do you work? Do you have a company? Do you work for a company? Do you are no more not a father? I want to know what your family life’s like. I want to know everything that’s today. But I want to know some stuff from yesterday, but I don’t need to go into depth because yesterday’s yesterday. I mean, I’m not one of therapists that can say, well, back in your childhood, see that. Man, if you’re still living from your childhood, there’s a place you can go check into.
Michael Stansbury (15:02.145)
Yeah, yeah, that’s right. That’s right. Yeah.
Coach Michael Economides (15:02.638)
But I don’t BS, I go straight, I tell it like it is, I’m not gonna tell you what you wanna hear, that’s what a lot of people do. Like, they wanna hear, and if they don’t get told that, I’m not gonna tell you which one to hear. I’m gonna tell you straight up what you need to do. When I coach, it’s not gonna be easy, because if it’s easy, everybody do it. It shouldn’t be easy. It should be something that should be uncomfortable, because you gotta get uncomfortable before you get comfortable, and it’s just gonna be, starting day one, I get results.
Michael Stansbury (15:23.606)
Right?
Coach Michael Economides (15:32.098)
I’m not just six months and then we start in six months. No, I want to get results every single week. We’re going to get something down pat.
Michael Stansbury (15:39.767)
Gotcha. So you start with, hey, what’s your day look like? And you make adjustments from there. You kind of coach them on that. OK.
Coach Michael Economides (15:47.374)
Most of the first three sentences, I can catch something right off
Michael Stansbury (15:51.809)
Yeah. And so how do people find out about you? Like how do you get, what’s the top of your marketing funnel or how do people find out about Coach Mike and what he does?
Coach Michael Economides (16:01.048)
So right now I have my website, is platinummindsetgroup.com or on Facebook, you can find me, Michael Economi, just on Facebook. I have a podcast, which is Platinum Mindset Podcast. And I do live. do live. Anything goes, pretty much. There’s no editing.
Michael Stansbury (16:18.987)
Yeah, well you, yeah. And what part of the country do you live in? Because I don’t have that on here. Just.
Coach Michael Economides (16:24.758)
I live 30 minutes north of New Orleans in Mandeville, Louisiana.
Michael Stansbury (16:28.305)
yes, yes, he’s a southern boy. Yeah, you stay. I was just looking at that part of the country. We were looking at Mobile and Daphne and those places because we’re thinking about at some point moving down there. And then I looked over. Yes, yeah, huge. Yeah, so that’s pretty cool. I think that area is gonna have a lot of growth. then.
Coach Michael Economides (16:30.742)
I stay with New Orleans though.
Coach Michael Economides (16:45.356)
About to build a huge bridge in my video. Over the tunnel.
Michael Stansbury (16:56.365)
But you stay out of New Orleans, right? You stay 30 minutes north of it. Is Baton Rouge close to there or is just north of you?
Coach Michael Economides (17:02.53)
So Baton Rouge is, Baton Rouge is to what, the west? Yeah, west. And I live, actually I live on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain. You gotta go across the world’s longest bridge over water, 24 miles. I live, I can see the lake from my front yard.
Michael Stansbury (17:07.788)
Yeah.
Michael Stansbury (17:18.893)
Okay, kind of give us an overview of some of the businesses that you’re helping now, because you don’t just help individuals, you also help some CEOs go into their business and find out who the leaders are. How do you do that? What does that look like? What’s your process of helping a business out?
Coach Michael Economides (17:39.278)
So lately what I’ve been doing is going on hiring sites since I’ve been noticing this a lot lately. And a couple of my friends, companies and just companies I see around here is that if a company’s hiring online, I go look at it and I see that the job is filled at the moment. And how the job got filled. Because the job got filled through a site that they advertise online and the job was already filled and they’re still advertising for that job. The person that they hired,
is still getting emails from that company that they’re still advertising on. So right off the bat, when I go in for leadership or team building, if I see that, that’s a no-no. I mean, if you just hired, if you have somebody as your general manager and he gets an email saying you’re hiring as for a general manager, he has zero value for your company and you think he’s gonna do the best for your company and make the most of you? Hell no. He knows he’s already out the door. So that right there is the biggest mistake I’m starting to see. It’s crazy. It’s crazy how many companies actually do it.
Michael Stansbury (18:37.067)
Right? They just leave it open and they fill the position but they still leave it being able to mark it. No one’s checked that box, right? Hey, we got this position. they check it? Okay.
Coach Michael Economides (18:45.39)
they checked it. they did. Because most of the time, let me tell you, I’ve been seeing them now. They’re actually put a pay increase on it.
There’s a veterinary hospital that it’s a corporate one too. It’s got a bunch of locations. I’m talking to them about going in there and doing something, but every position they have opening that they have hiring for, they’re hiring that they are the positions filled and they’re hiring for more money that they hired the people that are in it for. And oh, they lose 50, unhappy employee costs them upwards of 50 % profit.
Michael Stansbury (19:08.769)
Wow, well that’s shooting himself in the foot. Absolutely, yeah. Right.
Michael Stansbury (19:16.843)
Okay, and so you just go into the executive suite and say, hey, this is what’s going on. You need to stop this right away so the morale can be better. Okay.
Coach Michael Economides (19:25.902)
I’m actually about to start doing something with hopefully I got a meeting tomorrow with Crunch Fitness. I don’t know if y’all have a Crunch Fitness over there. Yeah.
Michael Stansbury (19:30.539)
Yes, we do. So you help out organizationally. What are some other things that you help? Do you go in and talk to the leadership there? What does that look like? What are some team building things that you do for organizations?
Coach Michael Economides (19:42.574)
team building.
Coach Michael Economides (19:48.792)
So most companies don’t have teams, they have just employees. most employees are just clocking in, watching the clock and ready to get the hell out of there. Instead of just building, you have a good leader in place, then you put good teams. And if they feel like they’re on a team and they feel like they have value, you could probably get rid of one or two of them. Because you could probably run a company with one or two less than you already have because those teams feel like a team. They feel value and they’re gonna go above and beyond and not just go from clock to clock and get out of there. And when they do, I mean,
Michael Stansbury (19:56.45)
Right?
Coach Michael Economides (20:17.388)
It’s the smallest things. mean, they’ve done studies that just go give them a freaking gift card to go get a free coffee. mean, anything so small, it’s like giving a dog a treat. The dog feels happy. It’s just like an employee. Make them feel part of a team, not as a micromanaged employee that all they do is watch the clock and they leave.
Michael Stansbury (20:26.796)
Right.
Michael Stansbury (20:36.267)
Yeah, it’s funny. The little things matter, like how you even talk to somebody, how you approach somebody. You know, we’re just having a conversation with my wife, my wife’s sister’s got a new job at a coffee shop down in where she lives and they just treat the employees terrible and they don’t, they don’t value them. And they don’t do the little things like that. Yeah, they treat them like it’s McDonald’s yet the coffee’s like nine bucks for a small cup. So they need to treat them a little bit better.
Coach Michael Economides (20:58.317)
Donald.
Coach Michael Economides (21:03.682)
Yeah.
Michael Stansbury (21:05.943)
But I get it. Yeah.
Coach Michael Economides (21:06.03)
You can see Chick-fil-A and Canes compared to McDonald’s and Burger King. Chick-fil-A is because they treat their employees great. It’s a happy environment. mean, most of my kids, they look excited to go to work.
Michael Stansbury (21:11.276)
Right.
Michael Stansbury (21:20.289)
Right. Yeah. So we have a, I know a bunch of kids that go to our church that work at Chick-fil-A and that what they put them through is just so great for them because they know how to talk to adults. They know how to, approach adults and they know how to have conversations. And so it’s, yeah. So you’re right. And it’s a difference. Yeah.
Coach Michael Economides (21:31.822)
Mm-hmm.
Coach Michael Economides (21:38.926)
The good company I worked for as an employee, but as an owner, I did some research on it. You have to work, as an owner of the Chick-fil-A location, you gotta work 40 hours a week.
Michael Stansbury (21:43.926)
yes.
Michael Stansbury (21:49.195)
Yeah, there’s no absentee ownership when it comes to that. Yeah, they have a different business model and I guess they can afford to with the amount of revenue that they command. you’re right. So let me ask you this, are you involved, is there like a guild or a mastermind that you’re involved in that kind of helps you with some of the things that you do or have you ever been a part of some of those associations?
Coach Michael Economides (21:52.43)
Nope.
Coach Michael Economides (22:12.75)
I’m actually starting to do some of my own monster masterminds. I’m speaking a lot more. I got to speak at events probably lately I’ve been doing three or four a month I’m actually doing two big stages coming up. So that would be first time I’m actually on a big big stage and So started being born more masterminds. I’m getting more of them It’s like a whole different world. It’s like you know, and it’s this and it’s like I don’t have enough time of the day
Michael Stansbury (22:31.501)
Okay, great. it.
Michael Stansbury (22:38.411)
Yeah, sometimes we gotta, sometimes the coach needs a coach, right? Yeah, yeah. That’s right, that’s right. One of the things we always say is, know, cause we have a mastermind obviously, and we always tell people like, you’ve gotta be in a room. You gotta have somebody that is, that you could define as better than you or where you wanna go. Somebody that’s gonna hold you accountable. Because that’s gonna make you grow. Cause when they kinda like call your stuff out.
Coach Michael Economides (22:42.776)
I gotta coach. If I don’t have a coach and I’m a coach, then something’s wrong.
Michael Stansbury (23:08.319)
It helps you, it helps you grow. So I love it. I love it that you said that you say, I’ve got a coach. I’ve been part of a multiple masterminds and, they’re one of the things about these masterminds is it’s just sometimes a one relationship, a way that I meet there or just one little tweak in the business where 10 or 10 or 15 X is something that I’m doing. I didn’t think of that. I need to be doing that instead of this. So
Coach Michael Economides (23:09.486)
That’s the whole thing in life.
Coach Michael Economides (23:31.089)
Mm-hmm. And look, some business owners are hard hit. They’re not gonna listen. I used to do consulting, because I own landscaping companies, and I’m a horticulturist. And I went into one, I’m like, you gotta get rid of your manager, dude. He’s your friend. Oh, no, no. OK. He’s letting him run all over him, but OK, and his company’s out of business.
Michael Stansbury (23:34.101)
Right. And then.
Michael Stansbury (23:49.373)
yeah, that’s tough. Yeah, and so one of the things is that’s the rub, right? You’re a coach and when somebody doesn’t listen to you, it hurts. It hurts you because you know what’s coming. Yeah, so what does that look like too? It’s kind of give me a story of a success that you had. Somebody had a mindset about something and then you were able to draw something out from them and they realized, okay, I need to think about it different this way. Kind of tell me what that looks like, Mike.
Coach Michael Economides (24:01.047)
Mm-hmm.
Coach Michael Economides (24:19.118)
The biggest thing I used to hear and I still hear the most all the time. Well, I’m just different. I’m not I’m not like you. I’m not this I’m not that I’m not like What’s your thing? I just popped out of my mom waking up early having a mindset I said you just look I was it does it no training. No nothing just proof I said, know, it’s like a cell phone We all get the same cell phone and you program it the way you want to do it Reprogram it. time to reprogram your mind. It’s daddy and it takes a little bit Some people just aren’t coachable. I 100 % some people just they’re just not
And I’m not going to sit there and beg him and beg him and beg him. That’s one thing is that I get in a car with you. You’ll never hear me push a sale or push anything like that. If you don’t, if you trust me, you’ll, want to hire me. If not, I’ll never sell you anything. And that’s the biggest thing is that, that people don’t realize how much their mind controls their life. How much everything they say, everything they think, it controls their life. If you go back and think about what happened yesterday or what happened last week, even to the point where if you get in a car accident and it was your fault,
Michael Stansbury (25:10.892)
Right.
Coach Michael Economides (25:18.722)
What led up to that? What did you not do? What did you do that you shouldn’t have done or you should have done that led up to that wreck? And I guarantee if you sit there and think about that, everybody thinks about that. You’ll be like, damn, even though wasn’t my fault, I should have been doing this, this and this and I wouldn’t have even been there.
Michael Stansbury (25:35.799)
Right. Yeah. So we’ve got some apps downloaded in our brain that we need to delete. Probably. Yeah.
Coach Michael Economides (25:43.084)
Yeah, delete the main one, delete the media one. The CNN Fox News, just delete all of them, get them out of here.
Michael Stansbury (25:47.147)
media one. Yes.
Michael Stansbury (25:51.797)
get them out. That’s right because they, if you let a voice talk to you too much you’ll end up parroting that stuff. Well Coach Mike, how can you know, how can our audience find out about you? Where can we locate you Mike if we wanted to find out more about you and find out more about how you can help them?

All they try, you know, the gym’s packed on January, but February comes along, it’s like a ghost town. But it’s going to be all in your mindset.
