Introduction and Bob Proctor's Cold Open
Bob opens with a point about people not thinking and being controlled by other people's ideas. Jay then welcomes listeners and introduces Bob Proctor, his book You Were Born Rich and his Proctor Gallagher Institute programs.
- •Most people's conversations and behavior show they aren't really thinking
- •We are controlled by ideas that belong to someone else
- •Jay introduces Bob as a bestselling author, speaker and motivational coach
- •Bob's programs are offered through the Proctor Gallagher Institute
The Internet and Communicating Through New Mediums
Asked about his biggest lesson of the last 12 months, Bob talks about the growing importance of the internet. He describes the studio he built, which works like a small TV station, and how it lets his team reach and help many people.

- •You must learn to communicate through different mediums or go out of business
- •Many people need help with the mental nonsense in their minds
Paradigms: The Programming We Didn't Write
Jay asks how people's challenges have evolved, and Bob says the root cause is still the programming. Paradigms in cultures, companies and individuals were written by people who didn't know what they were doing. Changing them takes understanding and discipline, and Bob says education has added to the problem.
- •Culture, countries, companies and individuals all have paradigms
- •The subconscious program is like computer code that controls behavior
- •Most of the programming was written by people who were ignorant of what they were doing
- •Changing it takes understanding and discipline, so few people change much
- •Bob sees educational institutions as adding to the problem
How to Start Self-Study: Learn From Those Who Have Results
Jay asks how someone begins real self-study. Bob says to go to people who have demonstrated results, since he believes 80% of teachers haven't done what they teach. He recounts being introduced to Think and Grow Rich and following a few mentors over 60 years.
- •Many people writing books don't really understand what they're saying
- •Judge teachers by their results, not by what they know or their degrees
- •Bob was introduced to Think and Grow Rich by his first mentor
- •He checks a person's results before he listens to them
- •If you want to learn, go to someone who knows more than you do
Repetition and Reading Until You Understand
Bob explains his daily reading of Think and Grow Rich, started on October 21, 1961. He tells of Earl Nightingale's book holder and the lesson of reading one page until you understand it. Bob says repetition is how we were programmed, and Jay shares how he listened to a Steve Jobs speech daily.
- •Bob has read Think and Grow Rich every day since October 21, 1961
- •Earl Nightingale read a page until he understood it, because understanding and application count
- •Results are the proof of whether you've learned anything
- •Repetition is how we became programmed, genetically and through environment
- •Jay shares listening to Steve Jobs's Stanford speech daily for nine months
Hearing vs. Listening and the Biggest Paradigm Block
Bob distinguishes hearing with the ears from listening with the emotions. Asked about the biggest paradigm block, he says most people don't understand what a paradigm is. He defines it as concepts fixed in the subconscious that control habitual behavior, and says we can spot ours by observing our own behavior and thoughts.
- •We hear with our ears but listen with our emotions
- •Observe your behavioral and thought patterns to recognize your paradigm
- •A paradigm is a multitude of concepts fixed in the subconscious controlling habitual behavior
- •Schweitzer's remark, as quoted by Nightingale, was that man simply doesn't think
- •The greatest problem is being controlled by ideas that aren't ours
Awareness, the Soul, and Paradigms as Viruses
Bob says awareness is the key and the paradigm blocks it. He gives examples of income, loneliness and illness resulting from lack of awareness. Jay compares the soul to a dusty mirror, and Bob calls paradigms viruses.
- •Bob says he is a soul, not someone who has one
- •Our purpose is to become aware of why we're here
- •Low income, loneliness and sick bodies come from lack of awareness, not desire
- •Reading book after book without applying it leaves behavior unchanged
- •Jay describes paradigms as dust on a mirror; Bob calls them viruses
Enthusiasm vs. Excitement and Money as Service
Jay asks how to stay motivated while cleansing paradigms. Bob distinguishes enthusiasm, from en theos or in spirit, from excitement, and says to keep studying and applying. He explains why he measures results in money earned through service and mentions building schools in Africa.
- •Excitement swings to depression, while enthusiasm sees things as just being
- •Maintain enthusiasm by continually studying who you are
- •Study, understand and apply so it shows up in results
- •Money measures results precisely and comes from providing service
- •Bob and his partner build schools in Africa through the Unstoppable Foundation
The Law of Attraction and Vibration
Jay asks about myths of the law of attraction regarding money. Bob says it is largely misunderstood and that attraction is a secondary law, with the law of vibration as primary. We attract only what is in harmony with our frequency, so he says to raise it.
- •Bob says hardly anybody understands the law of attraction, and The Secret didn't explain it in depth
- •Vibration is the primary law; attraction is secondary
- •You can only attract what vibrates in harmony with you
- •Unwanted things in your life are in harmony with something inside you
- •Most people are on an AM frequency trying to hear FM music
Your Results Reveal Your Frequency
Asked how to diagnose your frequency, Bob says the results you're getting tell the truth. Feeling is conscious awareness of vibration. He uses a radio analogy to describe how truth resonates, and explains his 60-year obsession with the question Who am I?
- •Results don't lie and show what you've been thinking
- •Feeling is conscious awareness of vibration
- •Problems in all areas of life signal a low vibration
- •Like a radio picking up music, truth resonates and you just know it
- •Bob calls his obsession with Who am I? a magnificent obsession
Love as Resonance and Harmony
Jay asks about applying the law of attraction to finding and keeping love. Bob defines love as resonance, with two people on the same frequency intellectually, emotionally and physically. He says many married people are in habit rather than in love, and that love can extend to ideas, places and a business.
- •Love is resonance across intellect, emotion and body
- •Bob says most people who marry or stay married are in habit, not in love
- •You can love a person, idea, location or business
- •Love is when you are in harmony with everything in all aspects of life
- •Bob says life is pretty good after 87 years
Find What You Love and Dedicate Your Life to It
Asked what listeners should do after the episode, Bob suggests writing down what they really want and what they love doing. He tells of a doctor who wanted to quit and of Earl Nightingale's advice. He explains that satisfaction and money are two forms of income, and money comes from providing service.
- •Ask yourself what you really want in this life and write it down
- •Your purpose is why you get out of bed in the morning
- •Earl Nightingale said to figure out what you love and dedicate your life to it
- •Bob left a busy company to work with Nightingale and became his vice president of sales
- •Satisfaction and money are two forms of income, and money comes from serving people
Why You Were Born Rich
Jay asks about the confidence behind the title You Were Born Rich. Bob says everyone is born rich in talent and ability, not money, and that he fought to keep the title. He tells of losing the handwritten manuscript in a taxi and rewriting it.
- •Bob says everyone is born rich with deep reservoirs of talent and ability
- •Most people are just short of money
- •People tried to talk him out of the title
- •He wrote the whole book by hand and lost it in a taxi
- •He rewrote it, thinking the lost draft probably wasn't any good
The Fast Five and Closing Thoughts
Jay runs the Fast Five with one-sentence answers. Bob names studying daily as the best advice and describes the greatness he saw in prison inmates. He wishes he had learned the value of study earlier, and his one law is to leave everyone with the impression of increase. Bob and Jay then close the episode with thanks.
