I'm the "Anti-Renaissance Man! If you know anything about my message, I'm pretty against doing more than one thing/business at a time. I believe success comes to the "mono-maniac".
Oh, what's going on? How's it going guys? This is Steve Larsen and you're listening to a sweet episode of Sales Funnel Radio.
Welcome to Sales Funnel Radio, where you'll learn marketing strategies to grow your online business using today's best internet sales funnels. Now here's your host Steve Larsen.
Now legally I don't know if I was allowed to include some of the soundtrack from Pirates of the Caribbean, but if the government comes after me I'll just ask them about their failing business. Ho, ho, how about them apples?
Hey. Hope you guys are doing great. Hope you guys listened to that last episode with Alison Prince, that honestly, that was such a good episode, oh my gosh. Anyway I thought it was great.
Hey, hope everything's going great with you guys. The last little bit here has been crazy busy. Not that that's any different at all than any other time so I guess I should say everything's normal, but I guess anyways it just feels like there's a lot going on because some holidays, you know, 4th July has been going on.
I actually have been able to detach a little bit and take a little bit of a break, which I highly recommend everyone does that every once in a while. It's a weird feeling, but I literally had to not bring my computer with me and we went to Pirates Cove, what?
Russell Brunson the man was super nice and did not need to do it at all actually. But he invited my wife and I to this place in Vegas. I can't remember what it's called, Boulderville, Boulder, something like that.
Anyways it's like 30 minutes outside Vegas. Apparently one of the guys who owns Nuskin is one of the top guys in ... he bought up all the old Pirates of the Caribbean stuff and ride stuff from Disney when they shut down the old Pirates of the Caribbean and they remodeled it for the new pirate stuff. Anyway he bought up all the old ... so you got all the old, like the dog in the corner and all the little pirates and stuff in their cages and things like that, and it's all over the place.
The guy built ... I mean he bought like five mansions all in this little neighborhood and built pools and water slides and stuff like that in between. It was awesome, it was so cool.
We were for several days just hanging out there and they got this crazy fast water slide that we were flying down that thing, I still have scabs all over my elbows for how fast we were going down that thing, it was super fun. Soon as the kids all went to sleep we were just hauling down.
Anyways it was a lot of fun, we did a lot of things.
It was honestly just a lot of play and it was good to detach and I recommend everybody do that every once in a while.
I have a hard time doing that because a little bit of ADHD in my head but it is anyway super helpful. My wife and I though, we drove around, we swan and played, we watched movies, we did nothing. I took a nap, that was the weirdest thing, I don't do that. It was great and we went on ... The Hoover Dam is like 10 minutes away from where we were so Lake Mead was right there.
We were over at the Hoover Dam, we were like, "Hey we should do a helicopter ride over here. And let's go do that, let's go to the helicopter tour."
And so we did. We booked it and we drive over early the next morning for this cool helicopter tour around the Hoover Dam. I had no idea it was that big first of all, I had no idea, and that it was built around the Great Depression, you guys didn't know this was going to be a Hoover Dam history lesson but I just took a sweet tour.
100 people died making it, like I had no idea it was that big...
So we get in this helicopter. Well I should say beforehand we drive up and the rental car we got was just super awesome sweet Camaro that was all tricked out. It was fun. We blew money, we had a lot of fun though. So we drive up to this little shack where we waited for this helicopter to come [inaudible 00:04:14] right next to this helipad, right.
It was super hot out, we go inside and we were waiting for our turn to get on this helicopter, and they're going through little safety videos and things like that.
It was so funny because we walked inside this little shack thing and there's like three guys in there and at first they're spraying this stuff on the windows and then they take this orange squeegee, then they're wiping it off again, and then they would do it again, so they spray it again, spray the window, and then squeegee it again.
And they do that again. This guy must have cleaned this window like I don't even know, like seven times. He's cleaning it and he just keeps squeezing off over and over and pretty soon I was like what the heck is, like what is he doing? It almost got kind of annoying because he just kept doing it over and over and over.
Pretty soon, this guy leans over and ... alright my wife's attractive, right, I know that, she's awesome. It always cracks me up when other guys start to hit on her and it's totally what this guy was doing. He leans over and there's no lead in, like he didn't set the stage at all.
All he does is he turns around while he's spraying this window, turns out they were tinting the window, and I've never seen that process before but they were cleaning it like crazy because they were about to put tinting on it, it's to keep the heat out because it was like 116 degrees. No joke, so crazy hot while we were there.
But he leans over and he looks right at my wife and he goes, "I speak eight languages." And I was like, "You got to be kidding me? Are you joking? Are you serious? You gonna ... you're hitting on my wife like that blatantly and you're clearly, you're not self aware enough to realize that's what's going on? That's what you're doing?" And he leans over he's like, "You know I speak eight languages." And she's like, "Wow, cool." And I was like, "Uhh, really? Wow, eight languages that's cool." He's like, "Yeah."
And he starts rifling off all these sayings in different languages, and I was like, "Dude, just coz you can say sayings doesn't mean that you speak the language, it just means you know the saying, you know?"
And he turns over and he keeps cleaning windows and you could tell he's in charge of the other guys that were there, and he was like barking orders at them like getting stuff done and he kind of like you know ... I mean it's totally what happens when I'm sure a lion sees a lioness, you know what I mean? They fluff the mane, you know, they start presenting, they start looking like all macho, they start fluffing the muscles out, you know what I mean?
Guys do that all the time, it's natural, you know what I mean?...
We try and impress the girl. I could tell that that's what he was doing, so I started like putting my arm around her and I was just like hey, like clearly we are together, like you see the ring on my hand, you see the ring on her. Like what are you doing? I was like whatever look, let's just play this out, this could be really fun. So I did.
He kept going. He's saying all these phrases in di...
