Hello and welcome to that shooting show.

0:02

My name is Steve Anderson. I

0:05

am your smiling super happy humble host

0:07

and to prove it here is

0:09

a picture of me Yeah, we got

0:11

these stickers made and they'll be

0:13

available soon along with the books We

0:15

are working on a shipping solution

0:17

for the books and we are half

0:19

way there like we are so

0:21

0:23

keep it coming so close we're

0:25

right there uh should be able to

0:28

take book orders anticipating sometime around

0:30

the of April having

0:32

some last -minute technical problems getting

0:34

those solved thanks to west

0:36

coast technical people with Shippo.

0:38

And if you know anything about Shippo, let

0:40

me know because that's the issue that

0:42

we're having integrated in a Wix website with

0:44

Shippo is causing us a little fire

0:46

technical hurdle here. But we'll get it solved.

0:48

Don't worry, because we don't quit until

0:50

we do. That's what we do. And Walther

0:52

is the title sponsor of AndersonShooting .com. And

0:54

of course, this program. This

0:56

is the Walther PDP steel

0:59

frame match. This is the

1:01

finest handgun ever made on

1:03

the planet. It is an

1:05

absolute masterpiece. Okay, look at

1:07

this thing. I mean, it's everything

1:09

you like about your CZ, but no

1:11

light strikes and no DQs. It's awesome.

1:13

And I just got these lock grips

1:15

put on this thing. These

1:17

lock grips, LOK, are a

1:20

game changer. This surface,

1:22

it feels kind of polymeric. I

1:25

don't even know what it's made of. I'm

1:27

sure it's made out of some kind of plastic,

1:29

but it's aggressive without being painful. So

1:31

get yourself a Walther PDP steel frame match.

1:33

Put yourself some lock grips on it and

1:35

go on down the road super happy. If

1:38

something is wrong with you and you don't like a Walther

1:40

steel frame, Walther will give you your

1:42

money back 30 day guarantee. It's the only one

1:44

that I'm aware of in the entire industry. That's

1:46

just all there is to it. All right. And

1:48

of course, CR speed. Manufacturers

1:50

the finest gunhandling gadgetry you can

1:52

wrap around your waist or anywhere else

1:54

will be seen the CR speed

1:57

in South Africa leaving today for some

1:59

2:01

from Atlanta to South Africa be there three

2:03

weeks I think something like that not real

2:05

2:33

amg -lab .com commander should timer continues

2:35

to blow heads and turn minds.

2:37

Oops. Turn heads and blow

2:39

minds by putting that their time

2:41

into that their tablet. Now, if the

2:43

match is being scored with AMG, you

2:46

can literally go into the stage where

2:48

you got beat by two seconds and you

2:50

can find that time. They capture

2:52

all the events. So you can literally go

2:54

in there and find that time. It's getting hot

2:56

in here. I'm going to take off some of

2:58

my clothes. OK, maybe

3:00

I'm getting hot. Oh, by the

3:03

way, current weight 182 down from 212. When

3:05

I started, more news on that shortly. The

3:08

foot is doing great. I can walk

3:10

now. I'm out of the orthopedic boot and

3:12

into a size 15 croc on me

3:14

right foot. I can walk very, very well.

3:16

So don't worry about that. Let's go

3:18

down a little bit for the metabolism. Oh, yes.

3:21

Master of puppies. Master

3:23

of puppies is holding the

3:25

leash, walking the dog

3:27

and cleaning up feces. Walkin'

3:31

the dog, he can't see a thing. Just

3:34

call my name and I'll come with the

3:36

string. Master, master.

3:39

Okay, 160 Gold is the only eyewear that

3:41

3:43

eyewear that I ever wear. Student Sports Innovations

4:15

hard to schedule because I'm traveling a lot. Please

4:32

can do a phone consultation for $100. You

4:35

can get a video analysis from the

4:37

great, the mighty Keta Bussey. This woman

4:39

knows more about moving with a handgun

4:41

than anybody on the planet. Anybody that

4:44

claims otherwise is just wrong and inexperienced.

4:46

Most of them are just regurgitating what

4:48

they got from her book, Smart Move.

4:50

She literally wrote the book on movement

4:53

and she will literally take three

4:55

stages and find you seconds per stage.

4:57

It's only $100, like what are

4:59

we doing here? And everything

5:01

on the site comes with

5:03

$200 and 100 HD Gold

5:05

Cash. So you literally make $100,

5:07

get in a video review from the

5:09

best movement coach, the only movement coach

5:11

in the world. So if you're on

5:13

the fence about her ability, Okay, I

5:15

don't know, I don't know, be class

5:17

lady shooter, devil in the world shoot.

5:19

Okay, that's fine, be skeptical. I

5:22

was too. I was skeptical

5:24

too, but check this out.

5:26

You literally make $100 doing this.

5:29

She'll review your video, you'll

5:31

get the product of that, and you'll

5:33

get $200 on Hunter's HD Gold

5:35

Cash. You make $100 with your skepticism.

5:37

You can do a mental management

5:39

coaching call for $100. That also comes

5:41

with $200 on Hunter's HD Cash. The

5:44

April 19th has already started. We're

5:47

doing a special class on May 22nd

5:49

for weight loss, bad habits, and lifestyle

5:51

change. It's $125 for a two hour

5:53

class. And you get $200 and 100

5:55

HD Gold. Are you interested in quitting

5:57

smoking? I did that. Are you interested

5:59

in losing weight? I did that. And

6:01

I did them at the same time.

6:05

So two of the hardest things for a human

6:07

being to do are to lose weight and quit

6:09

smoking. I did them at the same time. with

6:11

the power of mental management, I can teach you

6:13

how to do it if you're ready. If you're

6:15

enjoying being fat, don't sign up for the class.

6:17

If you want to keep smoking, do that, but

6:19

don't sign up for the class. But if you're

6:21

ready to make a change, like if you're ready

6:23

to change your life, change your lifestyle and get

6:25

more out of life, I can help you do

6:27

it. It's very, very simple. If you want it,

6:29

if you don't want it, then just keep being

6:31

fat and smoking. You could

6:33

do that. That's what I was doing, but I

6:35

made a change because I had pay value. Okay,

6:40

I want to thank all of you that have supported

6:42

Keta. There is a place

6:44

on there. It's called Keta Bussy Get

6:46

Well Soon. You can

6:48

offer to help defray her medical

6:50

expenses. She's been diagnosed with

6:52

baby seosis, which is a very rare tick

6:54

-borne illness similar to Lyme disease, but much,

6:56

much, much worse. Bottom

6:58

line is she almost died. but

7:01

she's been diagnosed properly, she's been treated

7:03

properly, and she's getting better every day.

7:06

This is not insurance because the clinic

7:08

she goes to does not accept private

7:10

health insurance, and because she's an Army

7:12

vet, the VA won't get involved either,

7:14

so she's out of pocket for this

7:16

treatment. If you'd like to support her, you

7:19

can support her by buying the Kita

7:21

Busy Get Well Soon product. We

7:23

will be with Kita at Rainers Range in

7:25

Ohio, July 12th and 13th. This is the

7:27

best shooting class the world has ever seen.

7:29

If you are ready to get good now,

7:31

the only two people that have graduated from

7:34

this class, Jeff Swarrow and

7:36

Gavin Butera, they not only

7:38

dominated their local match, they came

7:40

within 5 % of a PCC

7:42

World Shoot GM. I

7:44

mean, the results are, they got

7:46

so close, so close that people got

7:48

angry. Like, they're just, all right,

7:50

how dare you do this? How dare

7:52

you get so close? I mean,

7:54

what's the problem here? The

7:56

simplicity and science of what we're

7:59

teaching will make you a champion.

8:01

The Full Mental Management Class, July 11th

8:23

ready to stay stuck in C -Class, this is

8:25

not for you. And by the way, you're in

8:27

C -Class because you live in a C -Class lifestyle.

8:29

It's just that simple. If

8:33

you're stuck in C -Class, you're very simply doing

8:35

C -Class things. If you want to be an

8:37

A -Class, you gotta live an A -Class lifestyle. I can show you

8:39

how to do that, okay? All

11:03

about it. I don't need it I can

11:05

do it without it. Well, you're wrong Well,

11:08

you could do it without it That's gonna

11:10

take you a long time and enjoy the

11:12

view in the middle of the pack until

11:14

you see it my way Or Lenny's way.

11:16

All right, let's get a few things straight These

11:20

are 17

11:22

counterintuitive facts.

11:24

Number one, you are next in

11:26

when you should be now in, okay?

11:30

Stop research and shooting, stop reading

11:32

articles, stop consuming every podcast. This

11:34

is the only one you need,

11:36

okay? This is the only podcast

11:38

that you need and put the rig on

11:40

and do the work. Quit

11:42

reading, quit debating, quit arguing online, put

11:44

your rig on and go dry fire.

11:47

If you're not dry firing twice as

11:49

much as you're on Facebook, you're

11:51

dumb. And that's just all there is to it. Like,

11:53

what are we doing here? What are we even doing here?

11:55

Are we trying to get better or are we trying

11:57

to get more Facebook friends? Like, what are we doing? Okay?

12:00

Success on a stage is centering the

12:02

dot one shot at a time.

12:04

If you are next team, when you

12:06

should be nowing, you're not nowing. Okay?

12:10

Nowing is knowing. Knowing. Not

12:12

when you pull the trigger, when the site lifts.

12:14

That's what tells you where the bullet goes. The trigger. Maybe,

12:17

maybe not, right? If you

12:19

don't make a marksmanship error, the trigger's fine, but you

12:21

need to see the side lift. That's what tells you

12:23

where the bullet goes. So here, so check it out.

12:25

If I leave on trigger, oops, but

12:28

if I leave on dot lift, ah,

12:31

ooh, I'm gonna drive by myself right in the forehead. Look

12:34

at that. Dot lifts off my forehead right in the middle of

12:36

Walter logo, no problem. If I honk

12:38

it too hard, oops, if I don't

12:40

see that and I leave on trigger

12:42

pull, I make mistakes at my peril.

12:44

It ain't trigger pull, it's dot lift.

12:46

Okay? Everything at the top is counterintuitive,

12:48

guys. It's why you don't know it. As

12:50

you get higher in anything, the

12:53

truth becomes counterintuitive. If

12:55

it wasn't, you'd already know it. Okay?

12:59

All right. Sight is a

13:01

30 -second problem. It was explained

13:03

to me that children are told, and I've never

13:05

heard this because I don't have children, that

13:07

if someone's appearance cannot be improved in

13:09

30 seconds, it's not worth mentioning. All

13:11

right, so if you see a guy, he's got a bugger hanging

13:13

out of his nose. Hey man, you got a bugger hanging out

13:15

of your nose. We can fix that. Okay.

13:18

Hey man, you're 90 pounds overweight and

13:20

you're naked. That's not a 30

13:22

second problem. Not worth mentioning. Okay.

13:25

Now the only ever problem you're going to

13:27

have is firing the gun with a poor sight

13:29

picture. Unless you're brand new, if you're

13:31

new, it's more likely to be trigger honk. But

13:33

if you've been at this a while, the only

13:35

problem you're gonna have is firing the gun on

13:37

a poor sight picture. Now why are we doing

13:39

that? Like what do we think is gonna happen?

13:41

So I'm going through the stage and my gray

13:43

hat here is steel. Oh, that's

13:45

a high. I'm gonna shoot. Oh,

13:48

why did I miss? Now let's put the

13:50

dot in the middle of the target. Boom,

13:52

that's an excellent shot. Oh, Anderson drive fired

13:54

himself in the forehead. He's unsafe. Whatever.

13:59

Whatever. The complaint desk is open and

14:01

it's good for business. Argue all

14:03

you want. Okay, you

14:05

do this because you're afraid to be slow. The

14:08

only reason you're going to fire the gun with a

14:10

poor sight picture is because you're afraid to be slow.

14:12

And you're afraid to be slow because you

14:15

tell yourself you're slow. You're afraid to be

14:17

slow because you believe accuracy has to be

14:19

slow. This is a counter -intuitive truth that you

14:21

need to accept, okay? Speed

14:23

is speed, accuracy is accuracy. You want to

14:25

get it both at the same time? That's awesome.

14:27

Train for speed primarily in dry fire, put

14:29

the top in the middle the target. And we're

14:32

done here, okay? If you're

14:34

slow, then do something about it

14:36

Monday through Friday. There is no

14:38

free speed on race day, gang. Like

14:40

what are you gonna do? Rebuild your

14:43

engine right there on the starting line? It

14:45

doesn't work that way. But you squandered

14:47

Monday through Friday. You wasted that time doing

14:49

stupid things. And now you wanna be

14:51

fast on race day? Come on, man. Come

14:53

on. Let's try a different way.

14:55

Let's get fast Monday through Friday

14:57

than on race day. We are

15:00

fast. So we don't need to

15:02

go fast Okay Go fast you

15:04

will suck Okay, no number

15:06

four become faster. So you don't need

15:08

to go faster guys. Why is this

15:10

so hard to understand? I

15:12

gotta go and turn on the

15:14

screensaver. It's driving me nuts stand

15:16

by for technical items while we

15:18

screensaver Lock

15:21

screen, let's turn that

15:23

off. Okay, man,

15:25

I'm sweating in here. There

15:27

we go. One hour and

15:29

30 minutes, that should be sufficient. And

15:31

back to your regular scheduled program. Literally

15:34

sweating. I think I'm herxing. So

15:36

Keita is going through herxin and that

15:38

is where her body is killing

15:40

bacteria and causes her blood to become

15:42

toxic. What is happening to me

15:44

is I'm losing so much weight that the

15:46

toxins in my fat are going into my

15:48

bloodstream and they only come out one of

15:50

two ways, sweat or sit down. And

15:53

so we're both herxin,

15:55

which is eliminating toxins. It's

15:58

a very interesting process. Okay,

16:00

why is it so hard to understand? You need

16:02

to become faster so you don't need to go

16:04

faster. You will pay for speed

16:06

in practice or in points. That's your choice.

16:08

You can pay for it in practice, you can

16:10

earn it, or you can pay for it

16:12

in points on match day. It's your choice, but

16:14

there's no free speed, okay? Number

16:16

five, negative imprints in training

16:18

will destroy your self -image and

16:20

prevent access to skill. When

16:23

you train and you say, I can't do

16:25

this, I didn't do this, I won't do

16:27

this, those ideas go to the match. And

16:29

you are literally the guy that can't do

16:31

it, won't do it, didn't do it. But

16:33

in trying it, if you say, I can

16:35

do this, I did do this, and you

16:37

write those things down. That's

16:39

the guy that goes to the match.

16:42

Oh, that's just a bunch of zen

16:44

hippie BS Okay, well the guy that

16:46

won the Olympics says it's a pretty

16:48

good idea So if you haven't won

16:50

the Olympics don't disagree with the guy

16:52

that did using these principles guys. This

16:54

is not that hard to understand It's

16:56

counterintuitive because you're not paying attention the

16:58

information at the top is always going

17:01

to be counterintuitive If you're in finance

17:03

you to the top there's things that

17:05

are counterintuitive if you're in fitness Right

17:08

Joey Saladin tells me I got

17:10

to eat more to lose weight. That's

17:12

counterintuitive, but I trust him So

17:14

don't be afraid of things that are

17:16

counterintuitive it means you're learning it

17:18

means you're getting closer to the top

17:20

So let's look at it that

17:22

way the more counterintuitive the things you

17:25

learn are the closer you're getting

17:27

to the top If they weren't counterintuitive

17:29

you'd already know makes sense makes

17:31

sense Okay crying about your performance is

17:33

for babies. Oh, let's go back

17:35

to the negative imprints So if

17:37

you're keeping track of the things you can't

17:39

do, congratulations. Congratulations on learning

17:41

and knowing and studying the fact that

17:44

you can't be fast and accurate, you can't

17:46

make the shot, you're not getting any

17:48

better, and you suck. Like congratulations. That's

17:50

the guy that goes to the match. Or you could

17:52

try it my way. My way says

17:54

I can do. I know how

17:57

to do this. I'm learning how to do

17:59

this. I'm getting better. It has nothing to do

18:01

with complacency or mediocrity or anything of the

18:03

sort. And to suggest otherwise is

18:05

to blatantly misunderstand what I'm trying to

18:07

say here. Good job.

18:09

Try again. As opposed to, hey, you

18:11

idiot, how come you can't do

18:13

this? Quite simple. And

18:16

if an instructor, if you're an instructor

18:18

and you're talking to yourself harsher than

18:20

you're talking to your students, you're doing

18:22

somebody a disservice. Because

18:24

it can't be it can't be right for both

18:26

Meaning wait it can't be one or the

18:28

other has to be right for both meaning if

18:30

it is cool to be harsh on yourself

18:32

Then you've got to do it to your students

18:35

It's not cool to be harsh on your

18:37

students And you probably think it is because you're

18:39

an idiot if you if it's not cool

18:41

for your students It's not cool for you. Just

18:43

trying to help. Okay. Just trying to help

18:45

Okay, six crying about your performance is for babies.

18:47

I saw a post yesterday And

18:50

I couldn't find it, and I

18:52

will find it. Man, I'm dripping sweat

18:54

over here. I'm gonna take my

18:56

pants off. I literally might take my pants off

18:58

here in a minute. I'm sweating buckets of sweat

19:00

here. Okay, crying about

19:02

your performances for babies. I saw this post

19:04

where the guy says, I'm ready to give

19:06

up. He listed all

19:08

the things he did wrong at his match. And

19:10

then somebody said, hey man, this is the problem. And

19:13

I don't know how the conversation continued after that,

19:15

but I'm gonna try to help this guy. I'll

19:17

get in there and I'll find it. He's

19:19

he's making the classic mistake negative

19:21

imprint negative imprint. I can't I won't

19:24

I didn't and that reminds me

19:26

on mental management My buddy Santiago had

19:28

a little bit of a dumpster

19:30

fire and I said tell me about

19:32

your best stage Okay well I

19:34

wasn't worried about results. I wasn't trying

19:36

to beat Bucklealler, and all I

19:38

did was put the dot in the middle the target.

19:40

It was great. I said, great, that's the template. Yeah,

19:42

but what about the other six? Don't care about the

19:44

other six. Do not care. Tell me about your best

19:46

stage and how you did it. Tell me about your

19:48

next best stage. Well, I wasn't worried about the results.

19:51

Oh, oh, so now we have two

19:53

cases. Two, where you shot

19:55

well because you weren't worried

19:57

about the results. You weren't trying

19:59

to beat somebody. You were

20:02

simply shooting the gun, putting the dot in

20:04

the middle of the target. This is

20:06

an idea that requires a task. Oh,

20:08

I did it. I was able to sit

20:10

down and get the Metallica logo on

20:12

there. That's awesome. Okay? So crying

20:14

about your performances for babies, wham,

20:16

wham, wham. I didn't do it. I

20:18

wasn't able to put it together.

20:20

Nobody cares, man. Nobody cares

20:22

about your failures. Nobody gives

20:24

a rodents rear end. I

20:26

am interested in your success. I want you to know

20:29

about your best stage and how you did it and

20:31

how you're going to do it again. If you don't

20:33

know what you did when you're getting it right or

20:35

if you don't ever let yourself get it right, what

20:37

are you going to duplicate? Like seriously,

20:39

what are you going to do? Look at your list

20:41

of mistakes and go, oh, here is the template. It's

20:46

Aston Martin. You get

20:48

a sitting. Oh, hang on. That

20:51

is spam of the highest order. Oh,

20:53

it's not. We'll call them

20:55

back. Florence, Kentucky. Oh,

20:58

that might be spam. Guys, if you ever sign up for

21:00

health care, you might as well throw your phone in the

21:02

garbage can. I mean, the spam calls

21:04

and the do not call list is

21:06

not the do not text list. So the

21:08

phone calls and texting from health insurance

21:10

companies, horrible. Oh, and by

21:12

the way, the insurance company,

21:14

every insurance company's website is

21:16

gofyourself .com. That's it. You

21:19

know, you sign up for insurance six, 50

21:21

a month, they tell you everything's covered and then

21:23

you get prescribed the life -saving drug, eliquus, and

21:25

they say, oh, sorry, go f yourself. We're

21:27

not going to cover that. Well, then

21:29

why do I have insurance? Like, what, what,

21:32

literally, what are we doing here? Oh,

21:34

okay, moving on. So

21:37

crying about your performance is for babies. So if

21:39

you're complaining about your performance, you're an infant. Okay,

21:41

crying is for babies. When we're born, we

21:44

learn to cry at things that displease us. When

21:46

our diaper is dirty, we cry. So

21:48

are you going to sit in a dirty

21:50

diaper crying? Are you to do something about

21:52

it? Guys, I can fix your mental game

21:54

for $350 minus $200 on Hunter's HD Gold,

21:56

but you won't do it. And I don't

21:58

know why you won't do it. Oh,

22:01

oh, this guy that won the Olympics. Yeah,

22:03

he didn't know anything. Yeah, Anderson didn't win

22:05

the World Shoot, so he can't possibly help

22:07

me. Oh, you the only guy that can

22:09

help you? Yeah, I made Grandmaster in nine

22:11

months. Getting ready to do

22:14

it again and still challenge as soon as my body

22:16

is healed. You just sit there and watch me.

22:18

Keep doubting me because I love that. I'm gonna eat

22:20

him and smile. All right, so

22:22

negative imprints of dirty diapers. Every

22:25

time you do a negative imprint, you're

22:27

literally crapping in your diaper. And

22:29

then you wonder why it's uncomfortable. You wonder why

22:31

you stink. It's the negative imprints, man. Change

22:33

the diaper. Get a clean one.

22:35

Get a clean self -image so you

22:37

can get access to your skill. This

22:39

is not complicated. This

22:41

is not complicated. You do it at work all

22:43

the time. You don't go to work as

22:45

an auto mechanic and talk about the ones you

22:48

messed up. You stand on a brag about

22:50

the one you solved. Do that in shooting. It

22:52

is the same. If you're an attorney, you

22:54

don't tell your clients how terrible you are. If

22:56

you're in finance, you don't tell your clients

22:58

how much money you've lost. All right? Self image

23:00

is your resume. This is who I

23:02

am. This is what I do. Oh,

23:04

I choke at major matches and I bomb

23:06

classifiers and I tend to whack no shoots. Your

23:09

self image is who you are and what you

23:11

do. I don't do those things. I

23:13

make miracles on a regular basis and I

23:15

expect people to do the same for me.

23:17

So let's make some miracles out there, gang.

23:19

It ain't that hard. It really isn't that

23:22

hard. Look at an area where you're successful

23:24

in your life, look at your habits and

23:26

attitudes, and compare it to your shooting. If

23:30

you're a great real estate agent, positive

23:32

imprints, external and internal.

23:35

If you're great attorney, positive imprints, external

23:37

and internal from you and from

23:39

your environment. In shooting, you're crapping in

23:41

your diaper and you're complaining about

23:43

it. Like, this is so dumb. What are

23:45

we even doing here? All right,

23:48

seven, understanding Trump's memorizing.

23:50

So I have sought

23:52

to memorize the way

23:54

most women communicate, but

23:56

I don't understand it.

23:59

Therefore, I have struggled mightily.

24:02

And all you're doing when you memorize is

24:04

you're parroting things that you don't understand in

24:06

the hope that they will stick. Visual

24:08

patience! Yeah, you

24:10

don't understand it. You're still applying

24:13

speed up and down. That's not

24:15

visual patience. That's the conscious control

24:17

of speed, right? And apply,

24:19

when you apply understanding and

24:21

memorization will no longer be required.

24:23

See, memorization can only help

24:25

you in one instance very specifically.

24:29

Understanding can help you

24:31

everywhere. You got to understand

24:33

this stuff. Okay? I

24:35

shoot my best when I'm

24:37

not thinking, I don't care. Okay,

24:39

you memorize that. But you

24:42

don't understand it. You don't know

24:44

why you don't know what's

24:46

really happening. I do I Know

24:48

see you're gonna hear people

24:50

say that. Well, just quit thinking

24:52

Okay, good luck. Good luck

24:54

with that. Just quit thinking it

24:57

doesn't work that way It

24:59

does not work that way a

25:01

human being cannot stop thinking

25:03

about something Now When

25:07

the rules are always changing,

25:09

you cannot play the game.

25:12

I've been in relationships where the rules

25:15

were always changing. In my

25:17

last marriage, the rules were always changing. Couldn't

25:19

play the game. Consistency

25:22

is the quality of your thoughts

25:24

and your ability to duplicate them. And

25:26

if you don't know the thoughts

25:28

you're having when you're being successful, what

25:30

on earth are you gonna duplicate? Think

25:33

about that. We'll just let that one

25:36

sit there and simmer. Fast is not accurate,

25:38

accurate is not slow. Seeing what

25:40

you need to see in competition will make

25:42

you as fast as you need to be. And

25:44

I will get you there on the reg

25:46

if you will trust me. The

25:48

conscious control of speed and competition

25:50

will always, always be an error. Guys,

25:52

that's set in the cruise control

25:54

and the driveway. Literally, if

25:57

you're speeding up and slowing down, that's

25:59

because you set the cruise control in

26:01

the driveway. It's that simple. You need

26:03

adaptive cruise control. Targets are traffic. Write

26:05

that down. Number 10, self -image

26:07

can only provide access to skill

26:09

you have learned in training. My skeptics,

26:11

they say, oh, just sit around

26:13

and do some hippy mumbo jumbo. Self

26:15

-image, yeah, self -image. Well, what it

26:17

does, it allows access to

26:19

skill. Self -image

26:22

is a filter for

26:24

subconscious skill. I'm

26:26

not sure how to show that. My arm is not, there

26:28

we go. So everything starts

26:30

in the conscious mind.

26:32

On the clock, repetition moves

26:34

it to subconscious. And

26:37

then self -image, your opinion

26:39

of that process allows access

26:41

to skill, ultimately creating performance. Your

26:46

opinion of your training is more important than

26:48

your training. Your opinion of your stage plan

26:50

is more important than your stage plan. Your

26:52

opinion of yourself as a shooter is what

26:55

provides access to skill. If you believe you're

26:57

a crap shooter, then you're getting bad access

26:59

to skill. If you believe you're a good

27:01

or great shooter, you're getting access to it.

27:03

And it's not ego. Ego

27:07

is sitting around wanting to be more important. Self

27:09

-image is being a great shooter,

27:11

okay? All

27:13

right, this is a common misconception among

27:16

skeptics and skeptics will stay in

27:18

the skeptic tank of the struggle bus

27:20

Have a nice life in the

27:22

middle of pack or you can try

27:24

it my way. It's really Lanny's

27:26

way I just put a little Andersonian

27:28

spin on it or you can

27:31

become an Anderson arsonist Right when you

27:33

learn this stuff guys when you

27:35

try it my way you can be

27:37

I've literally Mike Haynes in Michigan is

27:42

now the arsonist. So if you know Mike, call

27:44

him the arsonist. He burns it down. He finally

27:46

figured it out. He finally figured it out. He's

27:48

like, oh, all I need to do is put

27:50

it out the middle the target. His buddy Dragon

27:52

learned it right before he did. Dragon's not feeling

27:54

good. Dragon's not up to snuff physically. So

27:57

now he tries, he

27:59

attempts. To put the dot the

28:01

middle the target, he won. He beat a

28:03

master and a grandmaster by one and a half

28:05

hit factors by putting a dot in the

28:07

middle of the target by trusting his speed. And

28:09

then Mike Haynes, the arsonist, did the exact

28:11

same thing. Like we were trading wins. It was

28:13

fantastic. Mental management is

28:15

gravity. Mental

28:18

management is not a religion that

28:20

you can choose to follow or not

28:22

follow. It isn't a program you

28:24

can opt in or opt out of.

28:26

It is a force of nature

28:28

that is controlling your shooting. You

28:31

just haven't learned to take control of

28:33

it. So these mental activities are happening to

28:35

you. You are creating imprints. You are

28:37

creating subconscious skill. But if you don't know

28:39

how to get access to it, training

28:41

is a complete waste of time and you

28:43

might as well not do it. If

28:45

you're getting negative imprints in training, you are

28:47

wasting your time and you're better off

28:49

not training. If you're going

28:51

out and saying, can't, won't, didn't, you're

28:53

wasting your time. Not only,

28:55

you may be gaining some skill, but it doesn't

28:57

matter because you're not gonna get access to it.

28:59

And you know, this is true. You don't even

29:01

need to argue with me about it. You know,

29:03

it's true. Let me get this straight. Don't you

29:05

shoot your best when you're not thinking and you

29:07

don't care? Mental management teaches you how to

29:09

duplicate that when you are thinking and you do care. Don't

29:11

you shoot your best when you love your stage and

29:13

love your plan? Why are we not

29:16

trying to duplicate that? Like it's

29:18

so obvious, so obvious, but it's counterintuitive.

29:20

That's why you won't hear anybody

29:22

but me talking about it. Well, people

29:24

will parrot it in a parody,

29:26

but they don't understand it. They

29:30

can copy it and mimic it, but

29:32

they can't answer the question. Okay,

29:34

y 'all get to do is control your

29:36

thoughts before, during, and after. There's three times

29:38

you need to be thinking. Well, three times

29:41

you will be thinking. Before you shoot, while

29:43

you shoot, and after you shoot. You

29:45

need to know what the right things to

29:47

think about are. Mental management teaches you that. And

29:50

you got to understand that

29:52

training is a messy process of

29:54

consciously modifying subconscious skill. It's

29:57

messy. If you're training correctly,

29:59

you're not going to be able to do

30:01

what you're attempting to do. That's why you're

30:03

training. If you're not

30:05

struggling and training, you are not training

30:07

hard enough. Yeah. Yeah.

30:10

Is that something mediocrity? Is that something like

30:12

complacency? So find something you can't do, figure out

30:14

how to do it. But if you could

30:16

already do it, you wouldn't be training. You'd be

30:18

performing. So if you're shooting

30:20

really well in practice and you're not

30:22

shooting for score or practicing shooting for

30:24

score, you're not training. You're simply performing.

30:27

And there's a time and a place

30:29

for that, but getting better is a

30:31

messy process. And if you're judging speed

30:33

and accuracy at the same time in

30:35

training, that is a dumb idea. It's

30:38

dumb. If you're getting

30:40

faster and you're complaining about your accuracy,

30:42

that's dumb. If you're getting more

30:44

accurate and complaining about your speed, that's

30:46

also dumb. These two can be

30:48

improved very, very, very quickly in isolation

30:50

from each other. Oh, you're

30:52

just telling me to go out there and practice? Miss it?

30:54

No, I'm turning the practice getting faster. That's

30:58

what I'm doing. If you can

31:00

shoot an alpha at seven yards, but it takes you

31:02

a second to have to do it, you don't need

31:04

to practice shooting alphas. Like this

31:06

is so dumb. You can

31:08

do it in 15 years or you can do

31:10

it in 15 minutes. Your choice, okay?

31:13

And your performance is always equal to your

31:15

self -image. That's because self -image is who

31:17

you are and what you do. If

31:20

you're a guy that tanks major matches, that is

31:22

who you are and what you do. If you're

31:24

a gal that struggles on the classifier, that is

31:26

who you are and what you do. That can

31:28

be changed. But you

31:30

gotta buy into the whole program. I

31:33

wanna see no bad mental management. Hey, I quit

31:35

smoking and lost weight at the same time. A

31:38

lot of you tried to quit smoking, you couldn't do

31:40

it. Everybody tried to lose weight and they can't do

31:42

it. I did it at the same time. How's

31:45

that for mental fortitude? How's

31:47

that for counterintuitive? So

31:49

come take the class. Come learn how to do it.

31:51

You want to quit smoking? I'll tell you how to

31:53

do it. You need nicotine pouches and a new habit.

31:55

That's it. You want to lose weight? Find some pay

31:57

value. Get yourself a full -length mirror and take off all

31:59

your clothes. Seriously, find

32:01

some pay value. Get

32:03

your full -length mirror, take off all your

32:06

clothes. Now, do

32:08

you want to lose weight or not? Very

32:12

simple. Okay,

32:14

I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna take my pants

32:16

off. When I sat down, I just wet him,

32:18

subsided a little bit. Okay,

32:20

12, focusing on results is

32:23

stupid because results are a variable.

32:25

The objective within your control is a

32:27

fixed non -variable and is a much, much

32:29

better thing to focus on. If you're

32:31

focusing on results while you're shooting, that

32:34

is not good because you're focusing on

32:36

something that you cannot control. You

32:40

cannot control. Number

32:42

13, ideas need to be

32:44

turned into tasks, okay? Let's

32:47

get this house cleaned up. What's

32:49

the task? It's a great idea.

32:51

I could wander around like Ozzy Osbourne, scream and share

32:53

it top my lungs and chip away at it. But

32:55

if you want the house cleaned up, give me a

32:57

task. What do you want me to start? Visual

33:00

patience is a great idea, but it must be

33:02

turned into a task. That's why you don't understand

33:04

it. That's why you're not doing it. The task

33:06

is put in the dot middle the target. Visual

33:08

patience is the idea. Okay,

33:10

shoot your own game. That's fine But

33:12

if you're a stage one of the world

33:14

shoot and you're the first shooter and you're

33:17

freaking out and you call me up and

33:19

I say just shoot your own game It's

33:21

gonna confuse you and irritate you and piss

33:23

you off because you don't know what it

33:25

means if you knew what it meant You'd

33:27

already be doing it needs to be turned

33:29

into a task. Just do it great Phenomenal

33:31

so awesome. It would be a great slogan

33:34

for a sneaker company. That's wonderful Turn it

33:36

into a task. Just do what exactly? If

33:39

you call me freaking out at a major match

33:41

and I say, just do it. It's not going

33:43

to help you. But if I say, hey, can

33:45

you get a subconscious stage playing yes or no?

33:47

And you say, yes, that's great. Number two, can

33:49

you put the dot in the middle the target

33:51

or see what you need to see? That's great.

33:53

Now the idea has become a task. Relax

33:57

and just shoot. Oh, that's great.

34:00

Oh, write that in a book. Once

34:02

again, you call me up at a major match and

34:04

you're freaking out. And

34:09

I say, relax and just do it. Congratulations.

34:13

How are you going to relax? And what are you going to do? Ideas

34:16

must be turned into tasks. So

34:19

the dot -call shot, see what

34:21

you need to see. Those are

34:23

tasks, things that you can actually

34:25

do. But you don't know that. Because

34:28

you're arguing with the internet about things you

34:30

don't understand is when you should be putting the

34:32

rig on. Put the rig on,

34:34

do the work. Let the internet argue

34:36

with itself, okay? Trust

34:39

is the key to consistency. You

34:42

need to trust in your plan, you need to

34:44

trust in your skill. Choose

34:46

your stage plan with your conscious

34:48

mind, master it, move it to

34:50

the subconscious, and trust that it

34:52

will be there. This is how

34:54

you take control of the conscious, the subconscious, and

34:56

the self -image. It's very, very

34:58

simple. You've seen it work before. You just

35:00

didn't bother to document it, or you

35:03

weren't happy. If you're coming off your stage

35:05

with a list of mistakes and regrets

35:07

and things you can or cannot do, congratulations,

35:09

you know how to be a crappy shooter. Take

35:12

those ideas to your next stage,

35:14

and it's literally, literally how the

35:16

wheels fall off. Well, I gotta

35:18

focus on my mistakes if I want to improve.

35:20

How's that working out for you? When

35:22

you go ask your boss for a raise, do

35:24

you jump about your mistakes or your failure? Sorry,

35:26

your mistakes, your successes. Hey boss, I want you

35:28

to know I burned the building down, left the

35:31

door unlocked, and set a cardboard warehouse on fire.

35:33

Can I have a raise? When

35:36

you focus on your mistakes, you're

35:38

never going to get a raise.

35:40

Write that down. When you focus

35:42

on your mistakes, you're never, never

35:44

going to get a raise. Never.

35:49

Okay, it's counterintuitive. I mean,

35:51

you can go to other instructors and they'll tell

35:53

you what you're doing wrong. That's awesome. That

35:55

is great. And we do need to do a

35:57

little bit of that. But we need to

35:59

immediately focus on the solution. When you

36:01

get your video analysis done by the great and wise

36:03

Keita Bussey, she's going to say, hey, here's what

36:05

I noticed. Here's some custom drills to

36:07

improve it. She will literally take seconds off

36:09

your stage time. And you're actually going to

36:11

make money. If you're skeptical of it, congratulations.

36:13

You just made $100. So

36:16

simple. Okay,

36:19

speaking of simple and easy, here's all you

36:21

have to do. Literally all you have to

36:23

do. Let's call this the J .B .O. model.

36:25

Let's call this the Mike Lozinski model. By

36:28

the way, I am literally sponsoring a brand

36:30

new shooter because I'm so impressed with his

36:32

attitude, so impressed with his persona, and so

36:34

impressed with his ability to put the dot

36:36

in the middle of the target. He's

36:38

never shot a whole match, but

36:40

he came to class and he won.

36:42

He won the class match. Put

36:45

the dot in the middle the target. And

36:47

you know it's so funny he and J

36:49

Biel what they have in common is they

36:51

both listen to this program for some number

36:53

of years before their first match and If

36:55

you listen to this program you do what

36:57

I tell you you're gonna win if you

36:59

modify it if you change it or if

37:01

you rebranded or me if you re if

37:03

you rebrand it and try to sell it

37:05

That's just dumb. I mean why not come

37:07

up with your own ideas? Rebrand

37:13

Anderson changed the name. It's just a rebrander

37:15

some you got to come to the source game

37:17

You got to come to the guys and

37:19

study it for 20 years like I got this

37:21

stuff figured out my people win How many

37:23

instructors do you see that regularly post their student

37:25

success and I don't like that term student? How

37:28

many other instructors do you see that

37:30

routinely post their shooter success? I

37:32

don't see that. I see people talking

37:34

about stuff See, I'm talking about themselves.

37:37

What I don't see is I went to Anderson's

37:39

class and now I'm in master class. I

37:41

took mental management and I'm winning, okay?

37:43

That's the rich all the way. So become

37:45

an Anderson arsonist. Quit trying to rebranderson

37:48

and become an Anderson arsonist. Don't listen

37:50

to the rebrandersons. You know who they are

37:52

because they're saying the same thing as

37:54

me. They don't understand it and they're

37:56

not doing it. Become an

37:58

Anderson arsonist, okay? Burn

38:00

it down. You need to learn your

38:02

shots. Sorry, you need to learn to call your shots. Until

38:05

you know how to call your

38:07

shots, that needs to be 100

38:10

% of your life by a

38:12

focus, 100%. And the issue that

38:14

I have with the ACBR is

38:16

you're still getting computer confirmation of

38:18

site pictures. And I need you

38:20

to get that confirmation from your site, not from

38:22

a computer. Because

38:24

if you think it looks good and the

38:26

computer says otherwise, you're not trusting your shot

38:28

calling. And you can still look for hits

38:30

and you can still watch steel fall in

38:32

the ACBR environment. And I don't know if

38:34

they have shot up targets in there or

38:36

not. If they don't, they need to. They

38:38

probably will and then they'll steal the idea. Okay,

38:41

you need to quit seeking doubles. Two

38:43

shots on one side picture is dumb and

38:45

it doesn't work. It's

38:47

dumb and it doesn't work. The industry

38:50

wants to sell you something to give

38:52

you two shots on one sight picture.

38:54

Quit giving them money and learn to

38:56

see what you need to see. Doubles

38:58

are dumb. As you guys are practicing

39:00

doubles, it's dumb. Well, I went out and did doubles

39:02

and I got a low shot. What do you

39:04

think the problem is? Is it my recall spring? Is

39:06

it my pinky? It's dumb. The

39:09

shot is low because you fired on a poor sight picture

39:11

because you didn't see what you needed to see. Well,

39:13

I gotta increase my splits. Okay,

39:16

that's dumb. Fast splits are dumb.

39:18

And if you're seeking faster splits, you're

39:20

dumb. It's the highest risk

39:22

for the least reward. And if

39:24

you shoot an IDPA, it's even dumber.

39:26

It's like you don't understand the

39:28

scoring. If you're shooting 1s and 3s

39:30

in IDPA, you do not understand

39:33

the scoring. Well, in USPSA, I

39:35

can go fast and take some Charlies. OK,

39:37

well, let's look at that. Let's

39:39

look at that, OK? Let's say

39:41

you've got a six -hit factor. Okay,

39:44

and your Charlie's two points down,

39:46

two divided by six, you've

39:48

got 0 .33, added

39:50

to, well, 0 .32, added to

39:52

your original split to increase your hit factor. So

39:54

let's say your split was a 25 and

39:56

you got a Charlie, you could add 32 to

39:58

that. So that split could be up to,

40:00

I believe the math is correct, up

40:03

to a 57 to increase your hit

40:05

factor. And I'm not telling you

40:07

to slow down, I'm telling you to shoot

40:09

out this. Here's a great strategy game, shoot alphas

40:11

without slowing down. That's the Christian Seiler model. I'm

40:14

going to shoot alphas without slowing down. I

40:16

can teach you to shoot

40:18

alphas without slowing down. And

40:21

if you're an IDPA, I can

40:23

make magic, magic for you an IDPA

40:25

because I will show you how

40:27

to shoot zeros without slowing down. If

40:30

you're consciously controlling your speed, that is

40:32

dumb. If you're getting negative imprints in

40:34

training, that is dumb. If you're chasing

40:36

splits in training, that is dumb. Super,

40:39

super dumb, okay?

40:41

That's why you're not successful if you're

40:43

not. Okay,

40:46

so you learn to call your shots,

40:48

quit seeking doubles, see what you need

40:50

to see for every shot, then you're

40:52

gonna learn to create a subconscious stage

40:54

plan with positive imprints. That right there

40:57

is 90 % of it. Well, it's 50

40:59

% for sure. Create a subconscious stage

41:01

plan with positive imprints. This is what

41:03

I'm going to do, and I know

41:05

that I can do it. Very simple,

41:07

okay? And then shoot with a singular

41:09

focus. When you occupy the conscious mind,

41:12

performance must come from subconscious. Ding, ding,

41:14

ding, ding, ding. Nobody else talks about

41:16

this stuff because they don't understand it.

41:18

They're parroting what they think I'm saying

41:20

and then making fun of me for

41:22

saying it. Fine, knock yourself out. I'm

41:25

over here winning, winning. That's what I'm

41:27

doing, okay? Okay, and

41:29

we'll show you how to do that in mental management.

41:31

It's best done on the range. That

41:33

is a thing. So learning to shoot

41:35

apples without slowing down, that almost requires

41:37

a shooting range. The mental

41:39

management in the classroom, if you're

41:41

highly motivated, that's wonderful. But if

41:43

you're skeptical, if you're in the

41:45

skeptic tank of the struggle bus, you're going to

41:47

stay there forever until you try it my

41:50

way. And these aren't theories,

41:52

guys. This is proven stuff. I

41:54

create arsonists. I create people that burn

41:56

down stages and I love to

41:58

do it for you. So simple. Okay.

42:00

Number 16, if you

42:02

are not willing to document your best shooting,

42:04

you will never be able to duplicate

42:06

it on demand. If you're

42:09

not willing to take five minutes and write

42:11

down what you were thinking when you had

42:13

a great stage or a great match or

42:15

a great practice session, you'll never be able

42:17

to duplicate it because you're keeping track of

42:19

your mistakes. What you're studying is your errors. And

42:22

lo and behold, surprise, surprise, ding, ding,

42:24

ding, ding, ding, you're getting more

42:26

of what you're studying. When you study, when it's

42:28

the right, whenever you study something, you get more

42:30

of it. So quit

42:32

studying your errors and study your successes. Why

42:35

on earth would you keep track of your

42:38

mistakes without a record of your success? It

42:40

makes no sense. No

42:42

sense. Here's every way I know how

42:44

to get it wrong. Let me study

42:46

that. Yeah. Or I

42:48

had a bad match, but I

42:50

got it right three on three stages

42:52

and I forced. My buddy,

42:54

Santiago, to study that. I made him

42:56

do it. He began feeling better immediately. Oh,

42:59

oh, on three stages,

43:01

I was successful. And

43:04

I wasn't thinking very much. And I

43:06

wasn't worried about the results. That

43:08

is duplicable, but it requires a

43:10

task. It's a great idea. But again,

43:12

ideas require tasks. And the task

43:14

order is a little bit different for

43:16

each shooter. Okay, we know

43:18

the environment which we shoot our best. I

43:21

will show you how to duplicate

43:23

it on the reg. Okay? You

43:25

don't do this in any other area of

43:27

your life. If you're a mechanic, you do

43:29

not tell new customers about the ones you

43:31

screwed up. If you're an attorney, you don't

43:33

tell people about the cases you lost. Now,

43:36

yes, you need to learn from that. but

43:38

you learn and apply the solution. You

43:40

don't study the problem continuously. It's

43:43

dumb. Okay, number 17. Your

43:46

stage plan does not matter.

43:48

It is irrelevant to success unless

43:50

you are so new that

43:52

you're doing dumb stuff. A

43:55

well -built stage will have multiple ways to

43:57

shoot it. Your stage

43:59

plan does not matter unless you're so

44:01

new, you're doing dumb stuff. Dumb

44:03

stuff would be insisting on going left

44:05

to right because you're afraid of

44:07

breaking 180. Dumb stuff would

44:09

be intentionally choosing a plan that has

44:12

more time spent not shooting. That

44:14

would be dumb. But if you've been

44:16

in the game a couple of

44:18

years, you're not gonna do dumb stuff

44:20

anymore. Your stage plan does not

44:22

matter. Choose something simple that

44:25

you can remember. and execute it. And

44:27

if you're not sure, check it

44:29

out. So if you've got two options

44:31

on a stage and you can

44:33

air gun them both, IDPA doesn't allow

44:35

air gunning, I get it. Okay,

44:37

let's assume it's USPSA. So all

44:39

you gotta do is air gun option one, okay,

44:42

get your phone out, go to the

44:44

stopwatch feature, air gun option

44:46

A and yell done when you're done.

44:49

Are you ready? Stand by, beep. Air

44:51

gun, air gun, air gun, air gun,

44:53

air gun, air gun, air gun, air

44:55

go, air gun, air gas, air gun,

44:57

air go, okay? Boom, it took

44:59

you 828. Now,

45:01

do it the other way. The

45:03

other option that you're considering, okay?

45:05

We got 828. Are you ready?

45:07

Stand by, beep! Shoot,

45:09

shoot, air gun, air gun, air

45:11

gun, air gun, air gun, air gun,

45:13

gun, air gun. Okay, I'm done.

45:15

That was 644. So

45:17

there's a difference there. Now, if it's

45:19

within a second or so, probably

45:22

doesn't matter. And yes, you do need

45:24

to air gun it realistically both

45:26

ways. You can't air gun your way

45:28

faster and it doesn't even, well,

45:30

air gunning's not real. Gosh,

45:32

do you think? Congratulations,

45:34

Captain Obvious. Air gunning's

45:36

not real. Fantastic. But

45:39

if you do it

45:41

similarly with two stage plan

45:43

ideas, if you air gun it

45:45

one way going left and one way going right, And

45:48

your splits and transitions are pretty similar. We

45:50

have real data. Why

45:53

do we argue when there's

45:55

data available? Why do we do

45:57

that? Why do we argue

45:59

about who the best instructor is when

46:01

we have data available on what their

46:03

shooters accomplish or don't accomplish? We

46:05

have data. Why are we

46:07

arguing in the presence of data? Analyze,

46:11

strategize, memorize, visualize with

46:13

positive imprints. That means

46:15

every thought. About your

46:17

stage planning process goes straight to self

46:19

-image. Okay, as you're figuring it out

46:21

figure figure figure figure figure figure your

46:23

opinion of this process goes right to

46:25

your self -image Okay, if you think it's

46:27

hard and you can't do it that

46:29

idea goes here If you think it's

46:31

easy and you can do it well,

46:33

that idea goes here. The sum total

46:35

of those ideas act as a filter

46:37

for your stage plan and your skill.

46:39

And none of this stuff works without a

46:42

subconscious stage plan. If you can't remember every

46:44

stage of the match when it's over, you

46:46

did not know those stages well enough at

46:48

all. I learned this

46:50

shooting in Circleville, Ohio. Shoot

46:52

a four or five stage match,

46:54

go to roosters right there on

46:57

23, I think it's about 23.

47:01

Yeah, something like that. And we talk about

47:03

the stages. Well, in the beginning,

47:05

I literally could not remember the stage

47:07

I just shot. My buddy Kyle Ferris,

47:09

who was Flex Money on the

47:11

Enos forums, he said, oh, on

47:13

that last stage, I come around the corner for that low

47:15

boy, and I couldn't remember the target he was talking about.

47:17

And I shot the stage 30 minutes ago. That's

47:20

when I realized I don't know

47:22

these stages well enough. 20

47:24

reps is a minimum between walking

47:26

and visualizing. Once you get the

47:28

stage memorized, get out of there.

47:30

and a technique for remembering it

47:32

as you're doing your conga line

47:34

going through the stage if you're

47:36

jammed up in the conga line

47:38

predict what's next okay i've done

47:40

these first two positions what's next

47:42

oh i think it's two yeah

47:44

it's two partials i got that

47:46

right that's the memorization process okay

47:48

walk the stage predict what you're

47:50

gonna see next Do

47:52

not start walking the stage unless you

47:54

know the start position and the round count.

47:56

That is a complete waste of time.

47:58

And if there are any negative imprints at

48:00

all as you're walking the stage, things

48:02

you can't do, things you know you're gonna

48:05

struggle on, just understand those predictions come

48:07

true the vast majority of the time. Controlling

48:09

the imprints, making the imprints positive

48:11

or productive simply means this is

48:14

what I'm going to do and

48:16

I am capable of doing it. Very,

48:18

very simple. It's a massive game changer.

48:20

Just try it. By

48:23

the way, you've already tried it. You know when you

48:25

love the stage and love your plan and have a

48:27

high level of confidence, you shoot great. If

48:29

you hate the stage, hate your plan, have a

48:31

low level of confidence, you shoot poorly. So

48:34

why are we not duplicating the greatness? Why

48:36

are we leaving it up to chance? If

48:39

the student is 90 % mental and

48:41

you're not willing to spend $350 to

48:43

solve forever the mental game, or if

48:45

you're not willing to buy into all

48:47

of it, then you're not ready to

48:50

win the Olympics. And if you're

48:52

not ready to win the Olympics, are you ready to get out of C

48:54

class? No, you are not. Let's

48:57

do this. Go to

48:59

AndersonShooting .com, upcoming classes. And

49:02

guys, getting a free class in your

49:04

area is so simple. But I

49:06

need you to pick a date. We

49:09

go back and forth with emails. Guys,

49:11

pick a range, pick a date. That's what

49:13

we must do. Okay, because in all

49:15

the emailing back and forth about the dates,

49:17

I'm giving these dates to everybody. So

49:19

when I give you an available date, I

49:21

need you to say yes. I

49:23

need you to say yes quickly. And then

49:25

I need you to promote the class.

49:27

This is so simple. The class

49:30

organizer gets the class for free. And

49:32

if you're skeptical, become a class organizer.

49:35

And by the way, everything on the

49:37

website, everything, comes with $200,

49:39

$100 HD Gold class. So you

49:41

can literally deduct $200 from everything

49:43

on that website. And then

49:45

look at the price. You

49:47

want to talk about value? That's

49:50

value. All right, guys, once again,

49:52

you can get a free class in your

49:54

area. Just email me, stevenhennersonshooting .com, quick phone call

49:56

to pick the dates, and we are good to

49:58

go. You can do it with me. You

50:00

can do it me and Joey. You can do

50:02

it with me and Kita. You can do

50:04

standard advanced, advanced fundamentals, match mode. We can literally

50:06

do anything. Anything. And if you've got

50:08

a small group and you want to get me out

50:10

there, let's just do a quick phone call. Hey, I

50:12

got a small group. Here's what we want to accomplish.

50:14

Great. I create

50:16

arsonists. My shooters burn

50:19

it down. Okay.

50:21

All right, folks. Hope you've enjoyed today's program. I

50:24

have a lot to do. Man, I got so

50:26

much stuff to do. I got a workout. I

50:28

got a pack. I got an appointment. And then

50:30

I got to go to Atlanta. I'm going to

50:32

hang out in Atlanta with Sean Bam and the

50:34

boys. And then we're going

50:37

straight to South Africa. If you're

50:39

on the fence about anything... You

50:41

can struggle if you want to, or you

50:43

can be with me and look like this.

50:46

All right, folks, have a great day. Thanks for tuning in. If

50:49

you're the praying sort, please continue to pray

50:51

for Keita Busse, a she -wee coverage from Baby

50:53

Seosis. And please continue to

50:55

pray for me as I

50:57

had the deep vein thrombosis. It's

50:59

much better. And

51:01

I'm walking again, just fine. So

51:03

thanks again for that. and uh to

51:05

51:07
