I’ve got a confession to make…

I suck at listening.

At least, that’s what my wife tells me.

And honestly? She’s right. My brain seems to shut off the moment she starts talking. A tiny distraction comes in, and boom—I’m mentally somewhere else.

It’s not on purpose. It just happens.

And it got me thinking…

If this happens in my personal life, how many people are guilty of the same thing in their business?

Spoiler alert: Most people don’t listen when they sell.

They think selling is about talking. If they just keep rambling, their prospects will get hypnotized into pulling out their credit cards.

But that’s NOT how sales work.

See, people don’t buy because you talk them into something.

They buy when they feel understood.

And, the easiest way to make someone feel understood? Shut up and listen.

It’s the cheapest and most powerful sales tactic in the world. And yet, almost no one does it.

Want proof?

I once had a mentor—Ross Bowring—who was the slowest talker on the planet. This guy took forever to get a sentence out.

And yet, he was one of the most influential people I’ve ever met.

Why?

Because he listened. Really listened. And when he spoke, he simply repeated back what you just said, making you feel completely understood.

The result?

He convinced me to pay him thousands of dollars for coaching, then got me to give him a percentage of my business profits.

That’s the power of active listening.

Most people are so used to being ignored that they instantly trust you when they finally feel heard.

So, if you want to close more sales, here’s my million-dollar advice:

You’ll be amazed at how quickly people go from being skeptical to begging to work with you.

Now, the real question is—are you ready to actually listen?

While everyone’s been chasing the next shiny thing…

15,743 affiliates quietly pulled in $108,098,077 on Clickbank—using a re-engineered 3-step system powered by new automation software.

This isn’t some dusty launch model or recycled affiliate hack.

It’s the new Clickbank—and it’s working like crazy.

If you skipped over Clickbank in the past? You may have skipped over your easiest $250K.

Ever feel like you’re running on a treadmill—working hard but getting nowhere?

Yeah, that’s not bad luck. That’s your own mind sabotaging you.

See, most people think success is about finding the “right” strategy. The perfect traffic source. The ultimate funnel hack. The magic email swipe that prints money on demand.

But none of that matters if your brain is secretly working against you.

Here’s the ugly truth:

From the moment you were born, society programmed you to stay in your lane and not make waves.

Sound familiar?

These beliefs are poison to your success. They keep you stuck, second-guessing yourself, and watching opportunities pass you by.

And the worst part? You don’t even realize it’s happening.

So how do you break free?

It starts with reprogramming your mind. Instead of seeing risk as danger, see it as growth. Instead of fearing failure, embrace it as learning. Instead of waiting for permission, permit yourself.

The moment you stop playing defense and start playing to win, everything changes.

The money. The opportunities. The freedom.

They were always there—you just have to retrain your brain to go after them.

So, are you ready to stop being your own worst enemy?

Or are you gonna keep letting your own mind keep you broke?

In this episode, Mike Martin is going to spill all the beans for you. 

You will get an insight into how he began his entrepreneurial journey, how you can develop a business mindset and keep yourself motivated to thrive in the market.

Most people know what they do. Some even know how they do it.

But, almost no one stops to ask why they do it.

And that’s why they struggle to stand out.

Simon Sinek’s Start with Why is one of those rare books that makes you stop in your tracks and rethink everything. Whether you’re running a business, leading a team, or just trying to get people to pay attention to your message, this book is a game-changer.

Sinek breaks down why some brands (like Apple) inspire a cult following while others get ignored. It’s not about better products, fancy marketing, or lower prices.

It’s about starting with WHY.

When you understand your WHY, you:

If you feel like you’re blending in with the crowd instead of standing out like a leader, this book will change how you think forever.

Must-read for: Marketers, entrepreneurs, leaders, and anyone tired of feeling invisible.

I start with a spark, a visitor’s glance,

Through clicks and forms, I lead the dance.

If done just right, I seal the deal,

Turning interest into something real.

What am I?
