It shocks me that information like this only gets 4-5K's worth of likes at 40-50K views, yet cat videos get millions. Thank you Pat for putting this out there.

[@assiaassia8979]

[@renaldiroekanto789]

@@luckypyjamastv1473 the thing about the education is how to bring it to practice. you can watch hundreds of videos but make no progress because you dont practice it, you just know about it like 100k people, but only 10 people will practice it and stick with it.

I have decades of experience doing thus, but in a narrow context. I spent a career as a firefighter paramedic and had to switch and unplug multiple times a day. From delivering the absolute worst news to a patient”s loved one, to helping deliver a baby, to relieving someone”s chest pain...you name it. My difficult task is translating that skill into my entrepreneurship and learning the new language.

Pat's understanding of business and life is on another level. Love hearing these stories

[@petescott]

Agree 100%. I was the manager of the spa and gym onboard a cruise ship and the male singer onboard the ship went overboard and died. What made it worse was 2 things 1) 11 of my team witnessed it with one being up for murder (but was later released) and 2) My girlfriend at the time was the female singer. Therefore, I had to deal with it professionally because I needed to be there for my team and I had to deal with it personally because it was my girlfriends signing partner. To top it off, the following day we had 2000 new guests onboard the ship and I had to run the spa and gym like nothing happened, meanwhile half my team were in a complete mess. We held it together as a team and somehow pulled through. 100% the toughest management moment I've ever had.

[@arshie26]

Respect! Can you walk us through a bit more how you worked through that? Was there anything you learned NOT to do?

[@l.a.williams1879]

I am so developing myself in this area right now. Most people would have no idea how I‘ll have a horrible call with a President or CEO, then have to (10 seconds later)do a positive training call with a team of people. I was feeling very lonely in this, but now I see that others go through a similar challenge.

[@neoistheI]

This is one of those skills, that's actually not about gaining more knowledge to be able to do it. It's about letting go of bad habits. The more bad habits we can shed, the more positive consequences we are able to manifest. This is due to letting go of the self sabotage that bad habits create in the present and in the future. Let go of bad habits, emotionally, intellectually, socially, physically, and watch how stopping certain things eg. letting go of criticism of self and others, positively changes the world around you. Watch how your natural skills blossom to authentically, effectively, efficiently, masterfully, deal with the circumstances we find ourselves in, no matter the context.

[@arshie26]

Communication and decision-making under pressure, and the ability to be constructive and agile in gut-wrenching moments like these, are keys to be really successful in the business world regardless of your professional status. The fact that it's a soft skill can make it that much tougher to master. PBD, thank you for elucidating the importance of this soft skillset!

[@MikeBarron1]

This is refreshing!! Your content is helpful man!! 💯 Keep going!!

[@illumi9018]

Glad you back to business and entrepreneurship video, we really need ray right now

[@gta200777]

This video resonated with me deeply, it's quite recent but I have slowly gotten into this exact mindset even before watching this video. I like to think of it as two things, the first one is I panic slowly and quietly and the second is emotional intelligence. What I mean by panicking slowly and quietly is that I won't allow myself to be overwhelmed by anything, I step back and make logical decisions; this of course is a slower process at the moment as it is controlled but I am getting quicker at doing it. The second is emotional intelligence; having the ability to understand, use, and manage my emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict.

[@danielkutcher5704]

Mighty Saiyan League, Very well stated. We have to be aware that we cannot control the emotions of others, so we must control ours with logic in the face of opposition.

[@myviews7021]

Exactly!!

You hit it out of ball park (mastery of being present)..this what you speak of Patrick requires a level of detachment while in the matrix. No easy to do. Unless you really recognize that we all actors playing roles in the moment. Thanks for Sharing.

Role Compartmentalisation - Switch. Unplug. Language.

[@lisakvieira9201]

Thank you Patrick, you give alot of good info!!👍

[@PinkuStyle]

This starts with setting boundaries with your customers.

[@danielkutcher5704]

How is it that anyone feels the need to set boundaries for others? We need to work within the boundaries of those who we serve (clients) without letting their peculiarities rock our world. At the same time, we need to let our expectations be known to them. Maybe that's what you meant.

[@withtrillionairediddy]

I've noticed lately that I've been subconsciously, and almost autonomously perfecting this skill and trait. I recall my last experience with it, this week Wednesday. It's phenomenal now that I'm realizing what it was and what I was doing, also what it will do for me in my entrepreneurial endeavors. 😅🔥🤙Thanks Pat!

[@blada246]

This one arrived at the right time as I am running in many different ways at the same time at the moment. Thanks Pat!

[@ashtaroraham7900]

On a very rudimentary level I witnessed you doing this first hand, at your house, on the day of your after party! It was so seemless and impressive how when you were speaking to Tim and Charlie, it was in Assyrian then when speaking to Tigran it was Armenian… the switch and unplug was effortless, for obvious reasons.. I’m definitely putting this method down in my $1mil idea box of my handbook.. the level of importance with which we can recognize and gauge our language is hands down a skill we can all apply and master! Thank you Pat!

[@SpineGevity]

Thank you for this video. I have always been impressed with how leaders of large organizations are able to navigate the many relationships involved. As my business grows, this becomes ever more important to MASTER.

[@MikeBarron1]

Exactly right! 💯

[@Triple-fe3fp]

I grew up observing this type of switch with my own parents. Both were locals raised in the islands. My father was in the military and my mother was a hard working woman.

[@ChefBoyareB]

I am an exact product of these words. Me today compared to me 3 years ago are two different people. I allowed to many things to take control, so I learned how to control those things. When I organized that part of my life, I immediately grew professionally. I raised my station and my stock and doubled my income.

[@ShifuCareaga]

I switch and unplug as a continual habit. Moat call what you say "compartmentalization" A true switch and unplug is how you keep a project or business from draining and hollowing you out. Have lots of things to switch to. That way you never wear out anyone in the circuit.

[@happycoconut8260]

[@bobsimone2702]

[@bbiancini]

There is a certain way to do it. I’ve learned that you always have to be yourself and never patronize anybody. Aside from that, it’s smart to change your cadence depending on who you’re speaking with.

[@TarunBathija]

You just put into words something I've admired for a long time - and have come across very few times in my career

Changing emotional gears to seamlessly move from compassionately experiencing tragedy with one party to celebrating success with another is difficult, indeed, especially in a society which largely accepts the falsehood that emotions cannot be controlled.

[@williamjohnson9139]

I keep emotions out of business. This Is one of the reasons. Salute

[@TRUdetailing]

One of the most important skills as an entrepreneur is being able to assess any situation and adjust your entire demeanor, communication and behavior based on that situation. It’s almost like having multiple personality disorder, but knowingly doing it on purpose for an end goal of usually money or persuasion. My girlfriend used to get mad at me at first when we were together and we were out in public and someone would approach me to ask questions. (Smaller city, lots of people know me) She would always get furious because she said I “changed my tone and my personality based on who I was talking to in order to get them to like you.... BUT I ALWAYS made the sell.” She said that to me. That’s what made her realize it. Has nothing to do with people actually liking me it’s all about getting the sell! But it’s so true!!!

[@Realmiketv]

As always PBD bringing so much value. Any book for recommendations to develop the method of "unplug" that you spoke on this video?

[@joemartinez6025]

Patrick Love you and your channel. LETS HAVE A CONTEST. WHICH ONE OF YOUR LISTENERS HAS THE BEST UNPLUG & SWITCH SKILLS. This could open the door for a talented individual.

[@jerrymuns]

This isn’t a skill that can easily be developed. It takes certain inherent attributes to be able to fulfill these duties in succession. Any good actor can successfully get through a day or two completing tasks as such, but will eventually mess up, and there are no second takes. The two most important attributes you’d need to fulfill a role like that are competence and heart. The competence to engage in constructive dialogue and the heart to truly care, and come across as genuine.

[@OscarLopez-sh3lo]

Wow.... So Timely.... Sometimes... I feeeeel like Patrick Beeee waatching meee💪🔥👍😂😂😂

[@jagatdave]

Very important...worth learning

[@raytaylormotivates]

This is good teaching 👍🏾💪🏾

[@jasonmelton9755]

I would be emotionally shocked out of the world around me, and probably trying not to sob, I would tell the parents, "There is nothing I can do. There is nothing I can do." I would not leave them, and I would always be ready to receive them personally, and any request they made of me personally. They would always have a direct line of communication with me. We only live once, and everybody matters to me! My next in command can handle the grand opening; the crowd will not be disappointed. The parents of the child that was killed will never be the same again. This is not my advice, this is my choice.

It’s called instant intuition. You need to rapidly analyze and adjust your tone and inflection for how you want to be received. Not easy to master at all, requiring tact and powers of lightning rationalization. I learned this skill by role-playing hundreds of potential client scenarios while a Stockbroker.

The first thing I would say is “I would want to come to you or would u rather come to me on your time?” To the parents and I would avoid any questions by saying “I would like to be there at the scene so I can gather all the information, my family will be with US” the us part is where I would drive home so they know I will be there the whole ride through!!!!
