Full transcript with timestamps

0:00 This is the gateway to instant rapport. There's just two things that you need. First is break the script. Break the norm. Number two, within that first 60 seconds, make an admission that most people wouldn't. I'm known as the number one body language expert in the world. And I'm telling you, it's probably well overblown. 10 ways to project confidence like a CEO. You stand up straight. Make better eye contact. Absolute bullying. Those are symptoms of confidence, not confidence. What would you say is the one trait that every successful entrepreneur has to have?

0:33 I think it comes down to your ability to So, Chase, I'm so excited to have you on today. I've watched you on so many different shows from Dire of a CEO to uh all these other shows that you've done and I've learned a lot and it's very very interesting what you do and I I always am fascinated with human behavior and it went back to when I was in college. I studied an anthropology class about humans from around the world in history and I was fascinated with human and I took that into sales and it really helped me a lot. But I'd love to and we're I know we're going to learn so much today but I'd love to go back to in your history. You were in the military for decades and then you transitioned out and then became an entrepreneur and I imagine that was a very challenging yet unique time. Can you take us back to that? Yeah, I was uh 38 at the time kind of going into retirement, military retirement. And there's a cool thing in

1:41 the military when you and you do 20 years, you keep like half of your pay for the rest of your life, all your benefits and stuff. Uh so I was going to I was going to be semi buoyant. Uh even if I decided to sit on the patio every day. Um, and I mean we're talking like 2,200 a month is like kind of your retirement pay. Uh, so it's we're not balling out of control, but I I really wanted to start this business. Uh, but I didn't know if it was going to be successful. And I wrote this resume and I applied to be a person that works in the shipyard fitting people's faces for paint respirators so that they don't get lung damage. Uh which is like I think it was like $14 an hour, $17 an hour. and I had this resume and um a master's degree and all this and I just I kind of limited myself a lot. And I showed this job to one of my mentors and he said, "If you don't delete and throw away this resume right now, you're

2:49 going to be tempted to keep using it and you're not you're not going to throw your hat over the fence." Uh so I did that day and I said, "If I don't make it, I'm not going to make it. If I'm not going to be a CEO, then I'm not going to make it." So, I started the company and I didn't know how to how do you get famous? Like, how do you make a name for yourself? How do you how do you grow a business if no one knows about it? And I'm not sitting here on a pile of Facebook ad money and and all of that kind of stuff. And I I didn't know what to do. So, I threw the resume out and then I thought, how can I throw my hat even further? How can I throw it over the next two fences? So, I started out the first two years that I was operating, I offered a 200% money back guarantee.

3:36 Uh, and that kicked me over the line. And I like I worked with some clients where we charged them enough money. I did not have the cash to pay those people if they asked for a refund. So, I remember I worked with this first thing. It was a trial consulting case where we were picking a jury uh for a trial and I was making enough money uh that it would essentially pay for my house like with this like four days of work and it was un like so far outside of my awareness that that was possible. And I was looking up non-extradition countries just in case like these people ask for a refund. There's no way I would have been able to pay them. Uh so I mean it started like that and and I eventually started like gaining confidence in like wow there's people enjoy this people benefit from it. We can actually change businesses and and law firms and sales teams and all this other stuff. Uh but it took a little bit. It took like uh

4:36 eight or nine months for people to start being like wow this this guy does what he says. This guy can can deliver results.

4:43 I love the fearlessness. If you could think about what makes an entrepreneur successful, if you could take one trait, whatever it is, grit, hardworking, whatever that trait is, what would you say is the one trait that every successful entrepreneur has to have?

4:59 Yeah, you'll hear a lot of this and first off, there was no fearlessness. That was full of fear. Like I was terrified going through that process.

5:07 Thank you for letting me know that. I I feel better now. Thank you. Okay, so uh you hear a lot of these motivational things. You got to be grit, confidence discipline leadership vision, creativity, all that kind of stuff. I think it comes down to your ability to prioritize what is important in the moment and subdue everything else. And it's really just I know what's important. I know what I should be doing right now. And if you have if you if if you're the grittiest, most disciplined, great leader in the world and you can't prioritize what's important, you will fail. Uh so you can have all those other qualities, but I think that that prioritization like I know exactly I need to do this big thing that's going to move this lever. And it it has to be to a point where you're willing to sacrifice food, sleep, and all the other creature comforts that that people are going through. I'm glad you bring up sacrifice

6:04 because I think there's this thing like I can be a business owner and I can work four days a week and two hours a day, but we all know that it's it's almost not even possible. Not even with AI yet is it's not possible. What is one thing that you learned from the military that you were able to carry over where people said this is such a valuable skill that we're willing to pay you a house for four days of work?

6:31 Yeah. I I don't think I learned it through the military. I learned it while I was in the military. Uh I did a lot of research and interrogation and body language, people reading and that kind of stuff. Uh but the one skill was I I had an attorney that came I gave a free talk at this like community college that's out here in Virginia. Essentially like I wanted to go like get my name out there so bad. I was like let I'll write you a check if you'll let me come out there and talk to these people. And there's a lawyer in there uh and he said uh like 60% of law is human behavior.

7:09 Uh and if you go all the way through law school and attend every class, you'll maybe get a cumulative six minutes of training, but it makes up probably more than half of of law and the outcomes of cases and case law. And I didn't realize this. He said he kind of kicked me off on this journey and said like you need to go talk to attorneys because they they're dealing in human behavior and have no training in human behavior. So I went out there and I just uh the first law firm I worked with was I think they paid me $800 for two three weeks of work uh that I did for them. Uh and and I told them like this is all you need to do. You ask this one question and it automatically screens out the jurors and the opposing council, the other attorney has no idea uh what the right or wrong answer is to the question. And they was like this was a mindblowing moment for them. And it was like, man, that's like

8:09 something I've scribbled on a post-it note 10 years ago. Uh and it made these people millions and millions of dollars. So what is one question if you could think that maybe let's say it could be sales it doesn't have to be you know attorneys but if it's sales or in negotiation what is one question what do you have another type of question or maybe what was that question

8:31 yeah well that question is very legal centric I don't know if it's going to be that helpful that question was how does a person catch a cold because the answer is going to tell you whether they have an internal locus of control or external so some People are going to say, "Well, these stupid ass kids are wiping boogers on the handrails. Nobody's washing their hands. People are going out and they're not sick. Other people aren't wearing masks. People are coughing all over the place." And you have the other person that says, "Well, I get sick if I don't take care of my body. I don't wash my hands often enough. I haven't taken my vitamins. I haven't haven't done all the things to prevent it myself." So, you can screen people that way. But in in sales or negotiations, one of the most powerful things you could ever do, uh especially when you're like at the beginning of a sales call, you want somebody to talk

9:18 about their pain or struggle that that's going on in their life. You ask them how most people how most people deal with a problem, how most people feel about something and they will give you the real raw truth of themselves. Because in reality, we all think that most people are kind of like we are. We kind of think everybody thinks like us. So if you ask them how most people deal with a problem or feel about a problem, uh you're more likely to get an honest answer uh where they're exposing their own thing without really realizing it.

9:51 So I read this sign many years ago and I don't know if it was true relating to all this. It said something like 80% of language is body language or some some high percent. I I forget what it really was, but essentially was, you know, body language is more of the language than the speaking of the language or the verbal language. Is that true? Is that false? And I don't know. What do you think about that?

10:14 I don't think it's true at all. Uh so it's it's called the the 93% rule where they they did this study. I can't remember the guy who did it. Um, but they they kind of showed that 93% was some kind of non-verbal component to language, but that doesn't make it the most important. It just means it's a it's a dominant force. But like I can't I can't have you go watch a movie in Russian and say, well, you could see the body language. What were they saying? So words are very important. I'd say body language might contribute about a third or less. Uh, but in very key moments, it can help you to understand what's going on behind the scenes. And that's what's what's really powerful about it. It's not that like, oh, I'm going to I'm going to see through the universe if if I study when somebody wipes their nose or whether they bite their lip or whatever. I think a lot of it's really overblown. And I'm known as the number

11:13 one body language expert in the world. And I'm telling you, it's probably well overblown. And one of the big mistakes is you see all these articles like 10 ways to project confidence like a CEO. Here's how to do this one thing. You stand up straight. You make better eye contact. Shake people's hand firmly. You don't cross your arms in a negotiation. It's absolute All of it. I'm sorry if you had to bleep that, but um it you go through all of this and it's it's showing you symptoms. So, I'm going to look at a confident person and I'm going to show you how they move their hands and stuff. Those are symptoms of confidence, not confidence. So, like I can't wrap you in a heating blanket and squirt some water in your nose and give you COVID, right?

12:01 I can give you symptoms, but that does not equal the cause. So, I think a lot of people think about body language as if it can work in reverse. Uh, and there's a little bit of truth to that, but not as much as what we see on LinkedIn articles and and these YouTube videos about confidence and stuff. The second one is that they they will have these things like if someone crosses their arms, they're being defensive. If somebody um does this one thing, then it means this thing. And that's called the attribution error. You've got to look for context and and what's going on in that moment. And even more than that, you have to look for change. If that person does that and it's a habit for them, it's meaningless in the interaction.

12:44 Fascinating. I mean, I I can't help think about traveling and I get to meet people from all around the world and I always like to understand, you know, how how their body language is because I might not fully understand what they're saying. Like you said, maybe maybe we don't speak 100% of the same language. How do you see the differences as you've been all around the world and you talked to so many people? Are there cultural differences in body language or are humans pretty much the same everywhere?

13:14 There are massive cultural differences. However, when it comes to our mamalian hardware, we all share the same hardware, right? So, we all have a the mamalian brain. We've got the amygdala, we have the hippocampus. All that's the same pretty much in everybody unless you're a psychopath, which is a whole different thing. But when it comes down to how we respond to primal things, sexual attraction, fear, uh fight orflight reflexes, our responses are extremely similar across all cultures. Like for instance, a fear feeling fear makes our body protect arteries. So like our upper part of our arm will kind of come in a little bit towards the torso to protect this brachial artery. We'll wrap a hand around our stomach because there's no bones there and there's a lot of there's an artery in your stomach.

14:06 It's your aorta. We'll move our hands closer to the groin uh because the femoral artery. We'll move our shoulders up a little bit during fear because of the corateed artery. So, we want to look for those things that are that are more primal first and then look for the cultural shifts later. So, the primal things are responses to fear and stress and pressure. uh and when we see something that's valuable that we want to go after

14:32 it really makes me think about how technology has I feel advanced much faster than humans as a species have advanced like how much we are still very primal in the sense where technology is just so quickly moving do you think that is having a negative or positive impact on people

14:54 I think it's probably both but I the one thing that I I say all the time is technology is outpacing our ability to adapt to it. Uh and and one of the negative ways is that this we're in this hyperconnected society. Everybody's got Twitter and and Facebook and all this other stuff and we are in a loneliness epidemic right now where this loneliness is rampant uh because this online simulation of connection is not enough to fulfill that need in the human brain. We're wired for tribes. We're wired for 3D interactions. Uh and that just doesn't fulfill it. It gives us a placebo. So, we get a placebo of feeling connected. And then the moment we log off, there's we go back to this uh more desperation like where we need to fulfill that. So, we go back to the placebo again. And that's where this lonely loneliness epidemic really stems from. How do you think this is going to change with robots in our homes

15:58 everywhere? Do you think a can a robot that sounds like a human that is like our our best companion, could that replace a human because it's physically there and it could be on 24/7, will our brains even know or understand that it's a robot, not a person, or will we will we all a sudden have this connection like it is? Well, there's a few different ways that it'll it'll serve humans. And we all know the the first way that people are going to use those robots in their house. We all know, you know, we don't need to say it. Uh that can satiate people. Uh and if we just look at research on we have a primate brain. Our brains haven't changed in 200,000 years. If we look at research, they they did this with uh bonobo chimps and other primates where they would they would make basically like a stuffed animal uh and they would put like a nozzle in the breast uh where the baby could drink milk uh but the baby would

16:57 would latch on to this large animal even though it wasn't comforting them, it wasn't warm, but it resembled something that was like mom. uh and it did seem to calm them down. It lowered their heart rate and their blood pressure. So, I think there's a chance uh that that can uh be better than an AI interaction on a screen where there's no face or anything there. If it's 3D, I think there might be a chance that that fulfills something for people. Well, I bought the website dateroot.com in 2016, but I never did anything with it. So maybe maybe that's the next billion-dollar idea. When you if you could think about instant rapport, I know I know you're you know an expert in all these fields. What are some steps that people can take? I think this is something I need especially because I'm talking to people like yourself and sometimes we don't have like a a lot of time to spend. We just have to go right

17:54 into it. Or I just went to a bunch of these events and then after these events I think about like did I even make any progress? And I imagine the most important thing I needed to do was have some sort of instant rapport. Uh just because the time is so limited with each person.

18:11 Yeah. And this is the gateway to instant rapport. There's just two things that you need. Number one, you get them to unconsciously think this is not this is different than what I expected. This is not like everybody else. So this this breaks some kind of prediction script in their brain. So essentially, you you start a conversation at a networking event or whatever it is. If they can predict, if they if you say something and they're like, "Yeah, yeah, that's what everybody says," then that's the wrong way to go. So if you go up and say, "How about this weather out here?"

18:45 That's uh going right along with prediction, right? So first is break the script. Break the norm. It it doesn't mean you're going up talking about crazy Epstein files and and conspiracy stuff, but you do go up and say something that people probably don't expect. Number two, within that first 60 seconds, you make an admission that most people wouldn't. So, you demonstrate a kind of raw vulnerability that's uncommon in that situation. Like, man, I had so much anxiety uh coming here or I had I had suffered with this a few years ago or whatever it is. you talk about it. The third thing you can do in place of that is talk openly about the script. So you openly call out the BS script that's running in everybody's head. So like, yeah, all these networking events, you're supposed to look perfect. You're supposed to hand out your business card.

19:37 You're supposed to walk in here and act like you have no personal problems in your life off camera. And it's really just nauseating to see everybody acting this way. just running this script. Just calling that script out deletes the power of the script. So those are the three things is something unexpected, an uncommon admission of some some fault that you might have or something that other people might see as a fault. And third is calling out the script directly. You're openly talking about the script that's running the show. I kind of want to do something. I want to take all of this and I want to go do interviews for a job that I don't really want to get the job, but I would find it really interesting to go and take all these skills because I haven't done an interview in so long. I feel like it'd be fun to go and apply for a job, go through the interview process, and see like using different skills, which one

20:30 would get me hired. Uh, if you can you talk to me about NCI and everything you're doing at NCI University. I believe it's and you can correct me if I'm wrong. It stands for neurocognitive intelligence system.

20:44 You got it. So, NCI University is this it's a very human centric training because we all all of us uh say somebody says I'm in sales or somebody says I'm a CEO. We're all in the business of human beings. And it it's weird that you say, "Well, I'm going to go get leadership training. I'm gonna go get sales training. I'm going to go train in the law. Your your training is all about should be about humans first and it never is. Uh so no matter what you're doing, whether you're a hostage negotiator or you're a mom trying to raise triplets, you're in the business of human behavior. Uh so we try to break human behavior down to where it's instantly understandable. You can see through the masks that people wear and you can communicate at a level that no one can because you can see things that no one can see.

21:36 Wow. So what I mean that's amazing. I I love the I don't need sales training. I need human interacting human interaction training because really that's I mean like you said that's everything everything and everybody whether it's your colleague your co-orker somebody you're trying to sell to a vendor it's always you know humanto human interactions. What have you seen after these companies and people uh that go through the system? Well, aside from millions of dollars of of revenue increases that are uh demonstrabably uh provable, uh I think the the sales teams that I've worked with, we see that they have longstanding relationships with these clients, just the clients they work with because they're people they've sold on a property or a thing that they invested in. uh over time uh these people want to go back to the salespeople all the time because they they felt like there was such a connection and it was just

22:36 because salespeople understood them. They weren't selling them. They were trying to understand them. And it's not like oh you need to ask these 12 magic questions. It's you need to understand how behavior actually works. And if you do that the understanding of other people is a byproduct. It's not like here's the little secret ways to watch somebody lick their lips or lean back. Although we teach all of those things, understanding the basics makes understanding people a a byproduct of it. So it goes back to the symptom versus cause thing. We want to give you the cause of being great at sales. It's one thing to make you a good salesperson. It's another thing if I make you the kind of person that's automatically good at sales. two very different things.

23:21 I need to go through NCI. I'm I'm excited. I know you have ongoing and people can sign up all the time. Um, final question for you. I wrote this book behind me here, Unlimited Possibilities, and it really was there were possibilities throughout my life that I never that I was able to do, but I never thought were possible when I was a kid, teenager, even young adult. Were there moments in your life or maybe a moment that stands out where you were like, "Wow, when I was a kid, teenager, young adult, I never thought I would be able to be here right now."

23:54 Yeah. I mean, with like my the way our company's is going right now and how many people that were able to to help, I never thought that was possible. And I I've got to a point now where I've got a few million subscribers on on YouTube and all of that to where I can kind of start doing what I've always wanted to do. I can do what I'm extremely passionate about. Uh when otherwise, like if I had 50,000 subscribers on YouTube and I started making these videos, people like, "Nah, this is he's he's taking a turn." But I've got enough subscribers I can say, "F you now a little bit and and make some content that I want to make." And [snorts] the the biggest goal of my lifetime, I just realized this like two years ago, is waking people up. I want to show you behind the curtain of not just people but reality itself. Like let's let's wake you up so you can see what's going on in politics the reality of that or

24:47 the the hidden side of the brain or the the hidden side of spirituality and all that stuff. So, uh, that's really the direction that I've personally started taking on my own YouTube channel and stuff and, uh, I'm obsessed with that stuff.

25:03 I I love to watch it. I'm super f it's one of the most interesting topics for me. I always enjoy your content, whether it's interviews or stuff that you've been making on your channels. But is there any any certain place that people should go to check more things out or a good website that they can also see things? Yeah, if you just look at my YouTube channel, it's my name. Super duper easy. And if you're super into the body language stuff, we have a separate channel that's also got another million subscribers uh called the behavior panel where me and three other behavior experts will break down interrogations, interviews, and that kind of thing.

25:40 I bet it's it's very I I would imagine how fun it is to break down the news. I mean, there's so much going on. Like there's so much. It's kind of crazy how many things are happening in a day. Sometimes I like to go to an island and just disconnect and when I come back and I'm like inundated with I'm like I missed so many things. But I it must be so much fun to just break down like politicians, celebrities, just people on on any channel. It I I imagine how much fun that is. So uh one I hope you come back one day. I would love to do that with you. Let's break it down. Maybe you couple other experts. There's some videos I would love to break down at some point. But Chase, I'm I'm so honored and appreciative to have you here today and thank you for joining us.

26:26 Thanks, man. Appreciate it.
