How To Filter Your Information: Everybody's Wrong Until Proven Right

[@vanshpachori8396]

WATCHING U IN 2024 ..........YOU ARE A TRUE LEGEND.... I don't know if you are ever going to read this but have saved my life I was lost but found you thanks a lot for your lessons.

[@love4art420]

I’ve heard a lot of your videos and these ideas you speak of are not new but for some reason your ability to articulate and portray them through examples, hard/and anecdotal evidence along with great analogies creates a clear visual on what you’re talking about. Your the best virtual LIFE COACH I have found. Thank you.

You have no idea on how much value he provides when you get to be in his inner circle.

[@hennyvanderpluijm6132]

There is different level of entrepreneurship going on here. Brilliant guy!

[@iShineOrlando]

Key takeaway Best skill to possess is filtering info. Theres way too much misiniformation. So watch peoples average behavior over time. LISTEN TO EVERYONE BUT ASSUME THEY ARE NOT CORRECT UNTIL I CAN VERIFY ITS TRUE. FACT CHECK EVERYONE ALWAYS!!!.(not necessarily that they are lying but most of the time they are due to the misinformation present today). Ask five whys when evalauting someone. Ask why questions 5 times? Action Items 1) List my major beliefs (behavior is the output of my beliefs, behavior will show my beliefs even when im not aware of them) 2)Ask 5 why questions when evaluating an "expert". 3)Ask is someone all in and following their own advice, when they are giving it. Is there money where their mouth is? (They are much more likely to be right when they are practicing what they preach). 4) Get good at filtering info by observing behavior so that you can fact with my own eyes bc everyone is wrong until proven right and making good decisions is based on having good info. Discern fact from fiction, a couple of bad peices of info can ruin you.

[@samovenstv]

Check out the video and let me know what you think here in the comments section? This topic is something I'm extremely passionate about!

[@michaelwyz2306]

Sam Ovens GENIUS!! Thanks

[@LukeAvedon]

Very impressive. Did you get a tan?

[@uncommonsense5876]

Sam, this is so true. I follow this same thinking. I think you have explained it better than anyone I've heard discuss it. Thank you.

[@sandville2396]

Brilliant, practical, rational truth as always. Thank you! This also applies to friends that we have!

[@sandville2396]

People should be taught to adopt this mindset at school. Politics would have a lot tougher time selling bs to the citizens. Again, thanks.

Dan pena is scammer

[@mfarjr1848]

This is BS to be honest

[@IBMSystemsEngineer]

I like that when Sam says Webinars, its sound like "whipping ass".

[@gravitydisc]

Watching this after 2020 is too relatable. If only every human watched and mastered this skill before that year…

[@DavisYates]

Sam, thank you. This is the kind of stuff that more people need to hear. We live in a world where everybody is just blindly following the masses, but nobody is thinking for themselves. Thank you so much for sharing this stuff. I have tremendous respect and admiration for what you're doing.

[@StrekRout]

The crazy thing about Sam's videos is that the more times goes by since his uploads, the more relevant it becomes.

[@raemyshu]

"An unspoken sucked" is now my favorite turn-of-phrase this week. I love your anecdote though, about the dangers of common beliefs.

[@debjitsmusicstudio]

Now I watch your videos every morning ...they are so damn good. "Everybody is lying until proven true" ....just amazing stuff.

[@jaclyncastro]

Just discovered you from a new mentor of mine, Josh Forti! Definitely true what you said on a certified title or any authority - that it can be a red sign - that can mean trouble. And always looking out for consistent behavior and response over what people say is absolutely a great thing that can change the course of your life or in a small scale just change your perspective leading to a better outcome for business, relationships, and life! Just subscribed! Thank you, Sam!

[@tonymaynard6602]

Thank you Sam great advice with examples to back it up. Your thinking is unique and much needed in a delusional world.

[@damianentropy]

I think this problem stems from the fact that people are being told for the first 18-20 years of their lives (school, parents etc.) that the Answers are what matters the most in life and not good, quality Questions. So nobody learns to ask questions but rather keep looking for THE source for answers.

[@khemmetoc2725]

I fell for this when it came to buying online courses. I was too susceptible too the authority bias of the person that was selling the program. Granted I got a great deal on it, but non the less, it wasn’t as valuable as it have seemed and I now currently spend my time learning on KZbin and testing my assumption rather than just believing something someone says. Thanks for the info Sam.

[@vocalmaestro5245]

I love this video Sam, I don’t even trust my own opinion until, I have fact checked it and I am proven right. This is great advice. This the #1 thing I tell clients. I am interested to look at what everybody is doing, but if it doesn’t check out based on trend or consensus I go the other way.

[@MozzarellaBasket]

Jordan Peterson said there are 3 types of truth. Objective truth is the absolute truth, no matter how you turn it. Personal truth is something that can be very dear to someone, like a religious opinion. It's the absolute truth, but just to someone. Then you have political truth which is only true because everyone repeats it and is later accepted as fact.

[@sahilagrawal922]

Different level of mindset and business learnings I am getting from this channel. I can relate to this video because it has happened with me, have been caught up by fake gurus.. Seriously Love the mindset you have and you share with us. HELPS ME GROW AND STRENTHENS MY MINDSET AND FOUNDATIONS A LOT. Thanks

[@themarketmotion]

Sam, I wanted to thank you for all of your fantastic content. You are building better people, better humans. Yes, you're concepts are crucial to business, but you're also teaching people how to critically think independently on their own.. something that has been lost.. maybe a great video topic to discuss? How people now are trained to respond and react to the thousands of media channels rushing us daily, rather than critically thinking through situations ourselves by creating and being proactive. Either way, Sam, we all truly appreciate you taking the time to put out this content. It's a HUGE breath of fresh air in the online space. Thank you!

[@christopherarmstrong2710]

It ultimately comes down to thinking for oneself and challenging conventional wisdom. This is how you get an edge.

[@mimediaglobal2729]

Great advice as always Sam. Thanks for everything you do.

[@gravitydisc]

The average person putting this skill into practice is a corrupt governments worst nightmare 😂

[@iteeesa]

Thanks, Sam. I got the same thought earlier this week. It made me realize how much I enjoy doing research to prove the veracity of something. I like how you explain the subjects in all of your videos. I respect and admire the eloquence & assertiveness of how you communicate your message. Could you please elaborate briefly on how do you prepare to make the weekly blog videos?

[@isaachuertavega]

Sam, I'm with Francisco here! I'm sure we aren't the only two who would love to see how you prepare for these videos. Thanks for making this one by the way. So much valuable information as always.

[@Rcccc576]

Please keep these kind of life changing videos up Sam, thank you!

[@ahmadshoib3688]

Hey Great Man!!!! I am Ahmad from Afghanistan, what you know our 60 percent population don't know, and I learned from you. Thanks

[@johndrover6005]

Great advice from someone who truly walks the talk!

[@subhankhan3969]

Always a pleasure, Sam. Thank you I think being able to take the good and put away the irrelevant is a skill, thank you for shedding light on the topic Also happy Birthday to the big man ✌🏼🎉

[@Thebusysuperhuman]

The comments are just as good as Sam on this one. Relative truths and absolute truths. Yes the umbilical cord analogy 👍😣

[@brandongrennan7602]

You went deep here Sam 🙌🏼. I agree 100%. Everyone has to stay in their toes as to what the truth actually is. I feel like you directly addressed a few issues I have and need to work on and I am so thankful for that. You reminded me when I was back in college I would sit around and go “is this it, I have to do all this and learn this stuff to be considered successful”. No need for to much hindsight lol because I am full steam ahead in your coarse now and I am loooing forward to it further changing my life for the better!

[@bjovicevic]

This is brilliant high level stuff, deeply needed in today’s world

[@thehandmademastermind]

Great content ! People think im crazy that I seek information to prove if it's truth rather than assume it is because I was told by many people.

[@christinakulick8096]

Congratulations! You have achieved wisdom through being present and conscious and at such a young age. It is kind of like forgetting everything you were taught and relearning what is truth and what is not. You also have a great ability of explaining things to others. It is a pleasure.

[@canalsurflessons]

Im Part of the Consulting Accelerator. And if you need a fact check on Sam Ovens course, just keep watching his awesome videos and you'll def. know the true. Thanks for everything Sam keep pushing the limit. Cheers.

Thank you Sam 🙏 Be aware that you can think for yourself

[@johnf.gamboa6217]

Bro, in about a year, when everyone who now are just reacting to all the hype, realizes this all is entirely true, That day, this video will be 7 times more viral than all the hyped-full-of-momentum videos that are all over youtube. THIS IS AMAZING STUFF MAN. No doubt the most valuable. Insainly clarifying for our perspectives. Thank you, Sam! amazing

[@joshcharter2932]

Love the content! That bitcoin statement stung tho xD

[@vektheartist]

This was really insightful Sam! I love these mindset videos so much!

[@johnbuenger]

A video that everyone needs to watch in 2020.

[@earthlover1723]

Thank you for making this video Sam. Greatly appreciate the time and effort you've put into it.

[@justinvleblanc]

Awesome advice Sam, I enjoy how you speak the Truth!

[@coachingleo7479]

Love this tip! Never believe it until proven right 💪

[@petriwester6700]

You are the most analytical person I’ve seen! Impressive!

[@thehuntress8850]

I don't think "go to school and get a job" is necessarily bad advice. It will keep you off the streets and from living in abject poverty, (providing that you actually majored in a skill that is marketable) It's just not the "BEST" advice. It's kind of like telling little kids to save their money. It's much better than blowing it all on junk food and toys, But then there comes a time where you have to evolve even higher and then learn to invest. You cant invest money if you are unable to even eat. Extremely poor people certainly can't afford your courses. But overall I would have to say that I generally agree with you. there is something with in us all that yearns for more freedom and Independence. That's really what making money is all about. It's not about money at all. It's about the freedom that we can get from that.

[@thehuntress8850]

Colleges used to be a lot more profitable and degree's were less common. But now the landscape has changed. Colleges are a lot more expensive and college degree's are a dime a dozen now. There is actually more money to be made in tech certificates because people will always need their cars and computers to be fixed.

[@LyndaHumphrey222]

Yes, truth is the truth that they know today. But everyday we wake up to our own crosses we bare. At night we need to forgive and move on. I do know if anybody can be bought out, they are untrustworthy. Money may be the true judgment factor of all. I forgive and move on from everything stolen from me to a degree, and one day if I do have extra money I would try my best to make this a better world.

[@Azoth9991]

Very good advice, I would add that this applies to books as well; biographies of successful people are worth more than most business or self development books written by people who didn't achieve great heights themselves.

[@Alex.Kalashnik]

That is so true. Although even a good biography can’t capture everything.

Thank you, Sam

Great piece of wisdom Sam as usual. I appreciate all you do for us man!!

[@nancyy8965]

good basic information god given discernment

[@FBforevah]

Hey Sam, I like the reasoning in this video, however I think that there are two perspectives here that one should consider. One is that if the person himself is invested in for example a hedge fund, there is a higher chance that it is the truth that the hedge fund is profitable because as you said "actions reflect behaviour". However there is a common psychological theory of forcing ones belief onto others to validate oneself, meaning if I invest in a stock that I believe is really good, I would go and say to others "Hey this stock is really good, you should invest" just to trigger a validating reaction from them to satisfy my worry that it might not be a good decision. Aside from "actions reflecting belief", is there another way that is similar to what you mentioned to increase the chance of "truth" people say? I really don't want this to come off as an aggressive argumentation, I really love your content and it has changed my life significantly. Henry

[@janigmoney5436]

I don’t listen to anyone unless they are where I want to be and I can see what they are doing without them even needing to talk

[@georgewilcox8853]

Great advice and I often think this is why so many people can get stuck in life because they may have views and opinions outside of the set social "paradigm" but no tools and skills to believe in their own comprehension of the world. My current issue is when this meets the law ie. legal requirements to have x qualification to be able to teach Y even if having said qualification is not what is needed to actually make an impact in Y.

[@ramandofoster1554]

The best thing I learned while doing my engineering degree is how to do research. Because if you don't, the thing that you are working towards simply will not work. The hardest part in making or building anything in life is not building it, but to have a credible source of information to tell you on how to do it.

[@piercehopkins4978]

Would you enter into a partnership with someone you don’t believe you could trust, but you do believe you could create systems of leverage to where they wouldn’t hurt you… If you firmly believed that a partnership would make you better as long as they didn’t hurt you

[@TheInsomniaddict]

There's a saying I read a long time ago: "The best way to sell a lie is to have an honest man tell it for you." Something I've remembered to this day.

[@sinsin9887]

Then hes not an honest man because he sold out.....

[@TheInsomniaddict]

Not if he believes he's telling the truth. That's the problem.

[@Hawtload]

Webinars may not be dead, but if I have to sit through a video with no playback controls or full screen popups 5 seconds into landing on a page, I will exit the page instantly because I know exactly what their game is. That kind of crap is extremely unclassy.

Thanks for the video, very informative. One question, your belief/assumption that "everyone is lying until proven RIGHT", what is it BASED on really? Do you think people are INHERENTLY EVIL, is that what you're trying to say? If yes, why do you think people are inherently EVIL? Any justification for this belief? Thanks

[@jeffbrislane5782]

Sam today i took your advice and analysed your promise that you make at the end of your videos. What sam says "Leave a comment as i read them all and respond personally" what sam does "I dont even look at the comments on youtube, dont even go there (from another masterclass video)". Sams advice today, Do not listen to words but observe behaviour over time, therefore when Sam says he reads and responds to comments he is lying as he obviously doesnt. Why? He doesn't give a shit what anyone really thinks of the video and he doesn't give a shit about anyones opinions. What he wants is people to think he gives a shit so he connects with people who may go on to buy his course. Hahahaha thanks for the brilliant advice sam (you may need to change your outtro or actually rdspond to some comments) 👍

[@WFFILMS]

By 5:30 you already get the whole point, follow Sam’s own advice and don’t waste extra 30min. Use those to work on your product / business. :)
