| What are examples of boundaries to hold a client to? | -being on time -watching the videos, make them watch on the call -say what others aren’t willing to say -demand respect from the beginning “I do what’s right, not what’s easy” -make then turn on their camera and call from an office, not the car or game. |

| Is it okay to be savage with my time? | It is not just okay, it is necessary. |
| "I will not do a call with anyone who does not do the homework." | -when they don't do this, they disrespect both our time -if they refuse to watch it and chose to hangup, they weren't going to buy anyway |
| Am I here to qualify them, or are they here to qualify me? | I'm here to qualify them. |
| If they are disrespecting my attempts to fully qualify them, how can I respond? | "I need to know if you're going to be a good fit. Right now, you aren't respecting yourself, or our time. You are not showing the characteristics and qualities of someone who would do well with our program." |
