Description

One of the keys of success, is breaking the pattern of frustration and rebuilding a pattern of curiosity. On this episode Russell talks about realizing that he sees things differently than other people. Instead of getting frustrated with a situation he gets curious as to why it is that way and figures out a way to fix it. Here are some of the awesome things you will hear in this episode: Find out what experience Russell had that helped him forego frustration and jump straight to curiosity and be able to fix a problem. See why Russell thinks being frustrated puts the problem on someone else, whereas curiosity brings it back to you. And find out how you too can switch your brain to look through the lens of curiosity instead of frustration. So listen here to see how curiosity helps solve problems, while frustration puts the blame on someone else. ---Transcript--- Hey what’s up, everybody? This is Russell Brunson, welcome back to the Marketing Secrets podcast. I’m pumped to be with you guys here today. Today I want to talk about the difference between being frustrated and being curious. Okay everyone, I hope you are all doing amazing, I’m excited to be with you guys here today. I’m talking about something interesting that came up in the conversation I had yesterday. I was talking to one of my coaches, she’s been someone who’s coached my inner circle members for a long time, she’s someone who now is coaching my executive team, and she’s also coaching me. Her name is Mandy Keene and she’s amazing.  And what’s interesting, as we were talking about stuff she said something super fascinating that I’ve never heard before. She said, “Hey, I was talking to John Parkes about you and there’s an interesting thing that you do that most people don’t do.” And I was like, “Oh, what’s that?” and she said, “Well, most people when they launch a funnel, when they launch a project or something and it doesn’t work, they get frustrated like, ‘why didn’t this work? I followed instructions, I did the thing, what’s wrong with it? What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with….’ And they get frustrated with something. “The most interesting and fascinating thing about you Russell is you don’t get frustrated, instead you get curious. When something doesn’t work, it’s almost like you get more excited when it doesn’t work because you sit back and you’re like, ‘oh, why’d that not work? What’s the reasoning? What was the psychology? Was it the process that’s wrong, was it the words, was it the message, was it the video, was I disconnected, did I not talk to the audience?’ You get curious about it and it opens up this whole new world of possibilities, whereas most people get frustrated and they want to walk away.” And I had never, first off, I never noticed that about myself. Second off, now that I’m aware of that a little bit, I’m like, oh my gosh. What an amazing gift, what an amazing pattern to understand. So many of us go out there and create something, do something, we put it out there and if it fails, or our definition of failure, then we’re frustrated. And as soon as you get frustrated, it’s interesting, because you stop yourself. You can’t keep making progress when you’re frustrated. Because when you’re frustrated you’re putting it on somebody else. “Well, it was the market, the thing, the instructions were wrong, the process didn’t work.” We always have somebody else to blame it on, and that’s what causes frustration, you’re frustrated because it’s outside of your control. And when you start shifting it instead and looking at it like, “Oh, this is interesting. I’m curious now. Why did that not work?” and you shift it. Instead of taking the control away, like you do when you get frustrated, you maintain control, you keep control. And now you’re in control like, “This didn’t work, this is exciting, I’m curious why it didn’t work? What do I need to change? What are the tweaks, what are the changes?” and it starts opening this huge world of possibilities for you
