General	
  Points	
  to	
  Keep	
  in	
  Mind
Change comes through action. The game offers the opportunity to act in new ways in an inconsequential
setting.  In  other  words,  our  mind  doesn’t  know  the  difference  between  real  and  pretend.  Therefore,  the  
5 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
game is the perfect way for us to rewire our brains to behave in ways that are more beneficial to us.
Practice  doesn’t  make  perfect,  but  rather  perfect  practice  makes  perfect,  and  since  repeated  actions  
create new habits, the more you play the better you will get in real life!
Because the insights achieved through the game reflect real life, not only will players be regularly
reminded of their insights, but many will even deepen.
Because of the above two points, the effects of the workshop are long lasting. Not a big bang workshop
which leaves participants with a high that will fade, but rather small, valuable and lasting insights every
time one plays. This is the difference between inspiration and transformation.
Setting up the Room
It’s important to set up the room so that no participant’s  back  it  to  the  presenter.  Arrange tables
perpendicular to the presentation screen.
Have a sign in sheet and be sure to follow up with each participant after the event. (See example in
Apprendix)
Setting up the Game
1. Place  the  “stock”  cards  on  the square between the two stock market bulls (the top right
quadrant).
2. “Business  Opportunities”  cards  are  to  be  shuffled  and  placed  face  down on the green square for
the Business Opportunities cards near the center of the board.
3. Shuffle  the  stack  of  “Action”  cards  and  place  them  face  down  on  the  blue  Action  Cards  squre  on  
the left side of the board.
4. Have 2 copies of the Icon Explanations handout on each table for each and every game. (See
Appendix – Icon Explanations Sheet)

  Workshop	
  Presentation
Good morning and welcome to your first FreshBiz
Game-Based Workshop named Win to the Winth. For
most of you this will be your first exposure to this way
of thinking which is why we call this workshop
Experiencing Entrepreneurial Thinking. This workshop
is all about introducing and experiencing entrepreneurial thinking , but since this is only a 3-4 hour
workshop all we can do is help open your mind to this way of thinking and experiencing entrepreneurial
thinking for yourself. Later we will tell you how you too can implement these techniques into your
entire life. For instance, through the advanced workshop you will be able to practice and then master
entrepreneurial thinking. And through the Sandbox workshop you will be able to live entrepreneurial
thinking. This workshop is all about experiencing entrepreneurial thinking.
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 6
Why Win to the Winth Power? This workshop was created to help you think in multi-dimensional ways
and to be able to create win to the winth power situations in everything you are doing. You want to be
a winner and master each of the different dimensions. Thus by combing those dimensions do we win
exponentially.    You’ll  see  that  it’s  not  about  you  and  the  other  guy  across  the  table  for win-win
situations, which most people are already  used  to,  but  it’s  about  the  ability  to  create  situations  where  
you have many more winners than those sitting around the table. You want not only your partners to
be winners, your suppliers to be winners, your referrals, but you also want the entire globe and
environment to be winners as well. That is the idea behind Win to the Winth Power.
So who am I? My name is [ ]
So  first  things,  first,  I’d  like  to  thank  you  for  being  here  and  showing  up.    Our  goal  for  today’s  
presentation is to help you see and understand multidimensional thinking so you can immediately apply
this to your life. This is not the type of workshop that you attend once and forget about it once you
leave here today. So, please give yourselves a round of applause for taking the time out of your busy
schedules to be here today.
Showing up is 90% of success when you are talking about entrepreneurship or anything else in life,
because  nothing  happens  if  you  don’t  show  up.    Too  many  good  ideas  never  see  the  light  of  day  because  
no one actually showed up to make it a reality. We find all kinds of excuses, we tell ourselves all kinds of
stories on why not to show up, throw the dice, take the action, take a risk, doing something. So actually
showing up is the first step that you need in order generate change. Congratulations for showing up
from your normal routine.
Outline  for  today’s  workshop.
Introduction session
Game for 90 minutes.    Afterward  we’re  
going to go over some of your
experiences and insights while playing
the game and how they relate to your life
and discuss possible next steps.

90% of success is simply showing up!
Welcome to the Game-Based Workshop for the
Development of Entrepreneurial Thinking
7 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
I know this video is silly, but who here has ever been stuck
in way or another? I know I have. I know one thing for
sure,  it’s  not  funny  when  it  happens  to  you. Not only that
but sometimes it can even happen more than once a day.
Of course the video is an exaggeration but we all come
across  things  we  just  don’t  know  how  to  deal  with  it.    To  
others it might be obvious, just like in the video. But when
we go through  it,  sometimes  it’s  difficult  to  see  the  
solution.    It’s  very  familiar,  we  all  go  through  it.    I  want  you  
all to feel comfortable, this is a safe place. We have all been in that situation, feeling stuck from time to
time. Basically this is what entrepreneurial  thinking  is  all  about.    It’s  about  the  ability  to  move  yourself  
ahead or forward when you find yourself stuck in a situation. So the idea is finding a way to move
forward when you find yourself stuck on the escalator.
Ask  question  “Is  it  easy solve the situation for  the  people  stuck  on  the  escalator?”      
Okay,  “what  needs  to  be  done?
Actually the problem is not about them moving their legs. As you saw, their legs are fine. They were
able to get on the escalator. Moving forward requires a change in mindset. And in order to understand
the mindset that is required to actually make the change and move forward and get to the end of the
escalator,  they  need  to  be  able  to  answer  a  simple  question…
Are you Happy? This is the first question we need to ask
ourselves when we want to solve a situation when we feel
stuck or unsatisfied with a particular situation. Most
people find themselves in a situation that they are not
happy  with,  that  they’re  not  satisfied  with  but  they  are  not  
stopping to ask the  question,  “Are  you  happy?”    Am  I  
satisfied with where I am, with the way my life looks like,
with the way my business looks like. First of all we have to
ask  the  question,  “Are  we  happy?”
CLICK
CLICK
obviously there are only two ways to answer this
Are you
HAPPY?
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 8
Yes and
No.
If  your  answer  is  yes,  then  that’s  pretty  easy.
Then keep doing what you are doing. You are obviously
doing something right. You are probably happy with the
situation.    In  other  words,  if  it’s  working  for  you,  we  don’t  
want to mess with it. We only want to deal with the parts
that are not working for you in your life.
If the answer to this question is No, well, then. What do
you do now? That is if your answer is no.
Let  audience  answer…
There is a step, right before taking action, that we believe, is one of the most important questions that
people  have  to  ask  themselves,  but  they  probably  won’t  or  they  don’t  and  that  is  …
Do you want to be happy? Most people will say, of course
I want to be happy that is a trivial question. But we
believe this is one of the most important questions that
has  to  be  asked  because  most  people  just  don’t  ask  this  
question.    Let  me  ask  you,  “Have  you  ever  come  across  
someone  who’s  not  really  happy  with  his  job  but  still  
holding on to that same  position  for  20  years?”    “Do  you  
know someone who’s  not  satisfied  with  his/her  relationship,  but  keeps  living  with  the  same  person  for  
decades?”  “Do  you  know  someone  who  is  not  satisfied  with  the  results  in  his  business  but  keeps  running  
the same business  the  same  old  way?”    Sure  we  all  know  them.    The  reason  this  is  happening  is  because  
we  are  not  stopping  to  ask  ourselves,  “Do  we  want  to  be  happy?”    And  we  are  not  stopping  to  ask  
ourselves this question because we are raised by our parents and the educational system, society that
life  isn’t  supposed  to  be  about  being  happy,  being  satisfied.    It’s  okay  to  have  a  lousy  relationship,  a  
lousy business, a lousy job, life is not a picnic, this is part of life, life is on a scale of suffer, all kinds of
limited  beliefs  that  we’ve  been  raised  to  believe  that  we  shouldn’t  do  anything  to  improve  ourselves  and  
YES
NO
Keep doing
whatever
you’re  doing
DO you
wantto
be
happy?
9 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
our situations and change something about it. So, the most important question that you should ask
yourself,  is,  “Do  I  want  to  be  happy?”  
Now if the answer is No
Then  keep  doing  what  you’ve  been  doing.    You’ll  keep  
getting the same results, everything will stay the same.
But if your answer is yes
What do you suppose we do?
Let audience answer
We change something
Einstein said the definition of insanity is
doing the same thing over and over again
and expecting different results. And  that’s  exactly  what  entrepreneurial  thinking  is  all  about.    If  you  
want  to  generate  new  results  if  you  want  to  change  the  situation  you’ve  got  to  change  something. So
basically entrepreneurial thinking is all about being able to generate change
NO
Keep doing
whatever
you’re  doing
YES
CHANGE
SOMETHING
Changing the way you play life
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 10
We want you to gain the skills and ability
to change the way you play life. Life is a
game and we all play it. So  what  do  I  mean  by  “Play”  life  and  life  is  a  game.    We  don’t  mean  it  in  a  silly
or playfulness way, we mean it in a way that has rules, skills and once you know the rules and once you
master the skills, then you can generate your own results. This is what life is all about; this is what
FreshBIz is all about.    It’s  all  about  changing  the  way  you  play  life  to  get  the  new  results  that  you  would  
like in your life. So how do we generate change?
I want to emphasize the word Generate, because  we  see  “Generating”  or  entrepreneurship  as  the  third  
level of 3 levels. The first and basic level is the level of victimizing oneself, being a victim. Things
happen to you, circumstances happen to you, and you just blame everything and everyone. You blame
the circumstances, you blame the economy, you blame the boss, and you blame everyone for your
shitty  life  and  your  shitty  results  or  whatever.    This  is  called  victimizing  yourself.    That’s  the  lowest  and  
we  don’t  deal  with  this.    The  second  level  is  being  responsible.    Being  responsible  is  the  ability  to  
respond to situations as they occur. Response ability, this is where things happen to you, where all
kinds of circumstances come into your life, but now you have the ability to respond to them and be able
to  control  your  life  in  a  way  that  you’re  not  just  a  victim  of  the circumstances, but you can act according
to the different situations that you come across in your life.
The third level is that of an entrepreneur, is being able to generate the reality that you want to create in
your  life.    It’s  not  waiting  for  something  to  happen  and  then  we  act  on  it,  it’s  being  able  to  generate  
change.    Just  to  say  to  yourself,  “This  is  the  reality  that  I  want  to  create,  these  are  the  results  that  I  want  
to  create”,  and  just  go  and  do  it.    You’re  not  just  in  a  position  of  reacting; you’re  in  a  position  of  
generating.    This  is  why  it’s  all  about  how  to  generate  change.    With FreshBiz as you play the game,
sometimes you are reacting, sometimes you take responsibility. But in order to be successful and happy
we need to be able to generate change. You see an idea, you see a result, and you just go and do it.
“What  is  required  in  order  to  generate  change?    Think  back  to  the  people  on  the  escalator  video,  they  
wanted to generate change right? What is needed for them to generate change?
Good, today we are going to talk about 3 ways to generate change.
Every time you find yourself stuck, you know that
there is a limiting belief  that’s  keeping  you  stuck  
there. There is always one. So, if you go back to
the example of the people stuck on the escalator,
what limiting belief are they holding? They are
holding the limited belief that in order to get
from point A to point B, the escalator has to
move.    That’s  their  limiting belief. Once they get
over  that,  it’s  pretty  easy  to  solve  the  problem,
right? But as long as they keep holding to that
How do we generate change?
Question
your
basic
beliefs
11 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
belief, they will be stuck on the escalator,probably for the entire weekend, because it looked like there
was no one in the mall to come and help them, right? So always look for the limiting belief. So, how do
you  find  the  limiting  belief?    That’s  pretty  easy.    
BTW, you might find yourself stuck on the escalator while playing the game. First, remember this is a
safe place and second you have to generate change in order to win. Whenever you are stuck ask
yourself, am I happy with my situation, do I want to be happy? If the answer is yes, then when you get
stuck ask yourself what is my limiting belief here in this situation.
So how do you find your limiting belief?    It’s  very  easy.    All  you  have to do is ask questions, and you keep
asking  questions,  until  you  come  to  a  question,  where  the  answer  is,  “Well,  that’s  life.”    “That’s  the  way  
it  works.”    When  you  come  to  this  answer,  you  just  found  your  limiting belief.    I’ll  give  you  an  example,  
let’s  say  for  example  you  want  to  start  a  business.    So  you  say,  “Can  I  start  a  business?”    “Well  in  order  to  
start a business I need some money. Can I get money? In order to get money I need to go to the bank
and get a loan. Can I get a loan? Well in order to get a loan I need to put up some collateral. Do I have
any  assets  to  use  as  collateral?  No.    So  can  I  get  money?  No.    Why  can’t  I  get  money?  Because  I  can’t  get  
a  loan  if  I  don’t  have  assets  for  collateral  for  the  bank.    Why  not?  Because  that’s  the  way  the banking
system works. This is the limiting belief. Once you realize that you put yourself in a situation where the
answer  to  your  question  is,  “that’s  the  way  life  is”,  you  just  found  your  limiting belief. Because of course
there are several ways to go around about raising money to start a business without using assets for
collateral for a loan. There can be all kinds of solutions but once you find yourself stuck in a situation,
when  you  say,  “This  is  life  and  this  is  why  I’m  stuck”  you  just  found  your limiting belief. After you find
your limiting belief what is the next step?
Now, you have to look at things
differently. Remember the guys stuck
on the escalator? They just found out
that their limiting belief is that the
escalator has to move. Now, if I
change my point of view, what can
happen? There are a few possibilities.
Maybe someone can come over and fix
the escalator. Maybe I can move.
Maybe someone will come and pick
me up and take me to the top of the
stairs. There are all kinds of possible
solutions relevant to this situation. So
you have to look at things from a
different prospective. Change your
point of view. When you realize what your limiting belief is, you find different perspectives. You look at
it from a different way, now what?
Change
your
point
of view
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 12
We have to take all
those new insights,
new beliefs, the
new point of view,
the new
perspective and
we have to
transform it, to
transfer it to life.
To generate
action, to do
something and it has to be something different, something that you  haven’t  done  before,  something  
that is new to you, because if you keep doing the thing you are used to doing,  you’ll  keep getting the
same  results.    We’ve  been  through  that  already  with  Einstein’s  quote  and  the  definition  of  insanity.    So  
knowing the limiting beliefs, having new insights about it, having a different point of view about it is not
enough.    You  have  to  act  on  it  and  you  have  to  do  something  that  you  haven’t  done  before.    And  just  to  
remind you, you are going to come across situations like this in life and in the game that you will be
playing in a few minutes.
So to reiterate, how do we generate
change?
And this leads us back to my original
question what is Entrepreneurial
thinking? What do you think?
Now this is our definition of
Entrepreneurial  thinking.    “We  define  
Entrepreneurial thinking as turning an
idea into reality. This is essentially
creating something from nothing. Now
some  of  you  might  be  thinking  I’m  not  a  business  owner  or  I’m  not  thinking about starting a new
business. Well, we believe that Entrepreneurial thinking is a mindset, a skill that is relevant for almost
any segment of life, business, relationships, parenting, whatever. We are all turning ideas into reality.
So  that’s  one  thing.    The  second  thing  I  want you to realize is that entrepreneurial skills are something
that  we  all  have.    It’s  not  that  either  you’re  born  with  it  or  not,  you  can  be  an  entrepreneur  or  you’re  
not.    It’s  a  mindset  and  it’s  a  skill,  so  it’s  only  a  question  of  what  level  of  entrepreneur are you? What

What is entrepreneurial thinking?
Turning ideas into reality
13 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
level of skills do you have? How close are you to mastering the skills of being an entrepreneurial
thinker? Because we all turn ideas into reality.
Here are some examples of
Entrepreneurial Thinking:
Here are some pictures of
how New York City was
created in the last 200 years.
First one is of 1876, the next
is 1952, the third is 1988 and
finally  2013.    It’s  a  big  idea  
turning into big reality. It
requires a lot of skills,
collaboration, opportunities,
action cards, this is a big
project. Of course you need
entrepreneurial thinking to
make this happen.
This is a picture of a
paver that paves tiles.
The business owner
used Enterpreneurial
thinking to generate
this amazing machine.
To generate ideas or
projects inside of an
existing business.
Because if you are an
executive in corporate
almost everything you
do is about turning
ideas into reality. Most
of us are what we are
called  “knowledge  workers”.    We  are  no  longer  just  sitting  by  a  machine,  turning  a  wheel,  expecting  a  
product to come out at the end  of  the  machine.    We  are  all  “knowledge  workers”; which basically
means, we are getting paid to turn ideas into reality. All kinds of ideas; it can be ideas about marketing,
about production, about sales, about manufacturing, whatever. But we basically get paid to turn ideas
into reality. So everything that has to do with business has to do with entrepreneurial thinking.
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 14
But entrepreneurial thinking is not only for business.
For instance a parent for a child, you wake up in the
morning, you go to the fridge, you see 2 slices of bread
and  some  cheese  and  that’s  all  you’ve  got  in  your  
refrigerator. You can either, complain and whine that
there is nothing to eat, or create a creative idea and
turn it into a very fun, cute sandwich. This requires
Entrepreneurial thinking, turning ideas into reality. So
it’s  relevant  to  almost  everything  you  do  in  your  life.    
And we want you to understand that just by showing
up to the FreshBiz workshop, just being here attending
this workshop, you can get added value not just for
your business or your job, you can get added value for
your life.
So why
entrepreneurial
thinking so relevant
nowadays?
Everybody’s  talking  
about
entrepreneurship
and creative
thinking and the
new game of life
and the new game
of  business.    It’s  a  
big buzz word right
now. And we have,
the new skills for becoming and developing your entrepreneurial thinking. Well we call I believe one of
the most powerful tools to teach how to handle the new game of life and the game of business. But in
order to do so, we just want to emphasize why this is so important nowadays to have it the Abundance
Paradox and the Flea Circus.
What is the Abundance Paradox? We all live now in a world that is full of options, opportunities and
resources. Ask: Who here has experienced any change in the world in the last 6 or 7 years? Because
everyone in the world is experiencing this change in the world now. Everyone knows that the way that
we live now is totally different than the way we used to live 20 or 30 years ago or even 10 years ago. I
really want to emphasize the point that we have gotten to a point in the development of human kind
that we actually have access to endless opportunities, options and resources. We have abundance of
The Abundance Paradox & the Flea Circus
15 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
options available to us at any given moment. And just to give some examples, we have access to all
knowledge known to human kind just by going to Google and searching. If you go to Google and you
search for something and you get zero results, then you probably know you have a typo, right?
And just by having access to all this knowledge that is available to world inhabitants gives you endless
opportunities  because  you  shouldn’t  be  stuck  in  a  situation  where  you  want  to  do  something  but  you  
don’t  know how  to  do  it  or  you  don’t  have  access  to  the  information.    We  now  have  access  to  almost  
any information that you are looking for. You also have access to almost anyone around the globe. We
have more than a billion people connected together with social media websites like Facebook, LinkedIn,
Skypee  and  Twitter  and  what’s  even  more  amazing  is  you  can  contact  all  these  people  for  free.    We  can  
also get anywhere. Nowadays, in less than 24 hours and less than $3,000 dollars, you can get yourself to
any point around the world and do whatever you want to do there. We have access to unlimited
resources to turn our ideas into reality.
Although, this is not the experience that most people go through. They are not just moving along, taking
ideas, turning them into reality, everything flows, I have access to everything. I have resources available
to me and I feel the abundance and I feel the flow and things are really easy and I thrive and succeed in
everything that I do. On the contrary, most people are living in a situation where they are struggling,
they  are  compromising,  and  they  don’t  really  know  how  to  make  things  happen  for  them.    This  is  why  
we  call  it  a  paradox.    On  one  hand  we  have  everything  available  to  us,  but  on  the  other  hand,  we  don’t  
seem to be able to use all those resources to have a better life, thrive and succeed. Why is that? The
reason  we  are  experiencing  this  paradox  is  because  of  what  we  call  the  “flea  Circus”  
Well, we are all a bit like fleas. The
fleas were put in the jar for 3 days,
we’ve  been  put  in  the  jar  for  over  200  
years. From around the beginning of
the  industrial  revolution,  we’ve  been  
taught to act and think in a certain
way. And that was relevant for about
160-170 years. Just to let you know,
about 30 years ago, they took off the
lid. About 6 or 7 years ago, they took
away the entire jar. But we keep on
jumping according the limit of the jar.
And just like the video, when the fleas
reproduced and the new generation
of fleas kept jumping at the limits of the jar although they never experienced an actual jar in their lives.
Same thing here with us. We are running FreshBiz workshops for kids from the age of 10, 12 and 15.
Those were kids that were brought up in a world that has no limits. No jar. But spending 7 or 8 years in
their  parent’s  home  and  the  educational  system,  they  are  already  jumping  within  the  virtual  jar.    And  
this is why most people are not able to enjoy all that we have around us, all those options,
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 16
opportunities,  resources.    Doesn’t  matter  how  big is the table around them; they keep jumping in the
limits of the jar.
This  is  what  entrepreneurial  thinking  is  all  about.    This  is  what  FreshBiz  is  all  about.    It’s  about  creating  
the mindset that people can understand that there is no longer a jar to jump in. They can go wherever
they want; they can jump all over the table and have a blast. This workshop is to introduce the idea of it
and make you aware so you too can have the skills and the knowledge on how to take advantage of all
those new opportunities. Welcome to the FreshBiz World.
I want to emphasize the point
that you can no longer keep
doing  the  things  you’ve  been  
doing so far. Some of you
might  be  thinking  I’m  fine  
with  what  I’m  doing.      I  don’t  
want to be an entrepreneur
or  I  don’t  need  to meet new
people or need opportunities.
I  don’t  want  to  travel  or  have  
a  blast.    Let’s  just  keep  things  
the way they are.
Unfortunately, by doing the
things  you’ve  always  done  is  
not going to give you the
same results you had in the
past. I hope you understand
how very important this is
because some people still
have the wrong mindset about generating change. They think that they need to generate change in
order to get better results. But we are now living in a situation that you have to generate change just to
keep  the  same  results  you’ve  been  used  to.    If  we  compare  the  effort  needed  to  be  done,  let’s  say  40  
years  ago,  in  the  70s,  to  what’s  needed  to  be  done  now,  in  2013  we  can  see  that  if  you  put  the  same  
efforts  into  whatever  you’ve  been  doing,  you’re  not  going  to  keep  getting  the  same  results.    
For  an  example,  40  years  ago,  you  put  reasonable  efforts  into  building  a  career,  you’re  probably  going  to  
end  up  where  you’re  used  to  end  up,  with  reasonable  results.    You’ve  probably  had  a  good  job,  you  kept
it for 30 years. You got your pension, you could probably even buy a house or something. That was the
realty  for  most  people  40  years  ago.    Well  that’s  not  relevant  anymore.    If  you  put  in  reasonable  efforts  
into  building  a  career,  probably  you’re  not going to stay in the same job for 40 years, 30 years. Probably
you’re  not  going  to  get  a  pension  at  all,  since  companies  don’t  offer  this  anymore.    And  most  won’t  be  
able to buy a house. You have to put extraordinary effort just to be able to have enough money to have
a retirement account and buy a house. Not taking into consideration even just the fact that people are
Results vs Efforts
17 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
now living 20 or 30 years more than they used to. How do we keep living? How do we keep making
money? In order to generate income, you have to think about it in a different way.
Now this is relevant not only for running a business or having a job. This is also relevant for your
relationships too. 40 years ago if you put reasonable effort into your relationship, chances are that you
will end up with a decent relationship with the same person for 40 years. No more. If you put
reasonable efforts into running a relationship, most chances, actually more than 50 percent end up in
divorce. 25% of people that are getting married are getting divorced in the first year of their marriage.
You have to put extraordinary efforts into keeping your relationships. Same thing goes towards your
health.    40  years  ago,  if  your  put  reasonable  efforts  into  your  health,  into  whatever  you’re  doing,  eating,
exercising,  you’ll  probably  end  up  in  good  shape  at  the  age  of  60,  70  or  80.    That’s  also  not  relevant  
anymore,  if  you  just  put  reasonable  efforts  into  your  health,  you’ll  find  yourself  with  30  percent  with  
cancer or all kinds of other diseases. Because this is just not the same world people used to live 40 years
ago.    It’s  not  the  same  economy,  it’s  not  the  same  environment,  it’s  not  the  same  society,  it’s  not  the  
same  food,  it’s  not  the  same  air.    Everything  is  changing  just  keep  doing  whatever  your parents were
doing,  what  you’ve  been  doing  for  30  years,  won’t  do  it  anymore.    You  have  to  understand  that  things  
are changing and you have to change with it. And this is where entrepreneurial thinking comes along,
this is where implementing a new way of thinking will serve you the best. What we want is to put
reasonable efforts in and create outstanding results. And this is why we need entrepreneurial thinking.
What exactly generates the results
that we see in our life. So here is
our world of results.    It’s  made  up  of  
3 elements
CLICK – The options we see
For  instance  if  we  don’t  see  the  
landing on the moon as an option,
we’re  probably  not  going  to  see  it  as  
a result as well. Only when we saw
it  as  an  option  then  we’ve  been  able  
to create a reality about it. So, first
it’s  made  of  the  options  we  see  in  
life.
CLICK – What we believe is possible
for us
Because  sometimes  we  do  see  options  but  we  don’t  see  it  as  something  that  is  possible  for  us.    We  see  it  
as something that is possible for other people, other countries, other realities, other way of life, but for
us. So in order for it to be able to turn it into a reality into results we have to see that this is possible for
us.
Our results
The options we see
What we believe
is possible for us
The action we take
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 18
CLICK – The Actions we take
The things we do because results that show up in our life are part of what we do, the actions we take.
This is how the world of results is made. This is how things look to us. The idea of entrepreneurial
thinking  is  creating  better  results.    I’m  sure  all  of  you  would  like  to  create  better  results in your life. Who
would like to create or generate better results in their life in some area? Raise your hand. All of you
who did not raise their hand you are free to go because everything that goes on in the workshop from
now on is all about creating  better  results.    So  if  you  are  not  interested  in  that  feel  free  to  leave  you’re  
just saving two hours of a workshop.
Some people like to work in Plan A in order to achieve 5 or 10 percent improvement in whatever you
want  to  generate  change.    It’s  easy just  get  up  an  hour  earlier  and  work  that  much  harder.    It’s  been  
done  before  and  that’s  how  it’s  been  done  for  the  past  40  years  and  it’s  been  called  the  rat  race.    We  at  
FreshBiz believe that the rat race era is over. There is a limit to how early you can wake up and how
hard  you  can  work.    And  we’ve  just  reached  this  limit.    Welcome  to  the  entrepreneurship  era.    
CLICK
CLICK – Outstanding Results
Plan B is generating outstanding results, something that is totally different. Totally different in the
quality of the result that you are experiencing in your life. It can be results around business,
relationships,  health,  whatever.    In  order  to  create  outstanding  results,  it’s  not  enough  to  wake  up  an  
hour  early  and  work  a  bit  harder  because  you  can’t  work  10 times harder just to generate 10 times the
results because as we said a moment ago there is a limit to how hard you can work. Now
entrepreneurial  thinking  is  not  about  that,  it’s  about  doing  something  different,  having  more  fun,  having  
a different mindset that can change dramatically the result that you will experience in your life. Please
keep  in  mind  it’s  not  about  the  quantity  but  about  the  quality  of  the  results  because  you  can’t  measure  
results for your relationships or your health in quantity but in quality. FreshBiz is about teaching people
a  new  lifestyle.    That  lifestyle  can  be  implemented  into  business,  relationships,  health,  whatever.    But  it’s  
about living life in a different way, using a different mindset, using a different set of skills that will
generate outstanding results for yourself. So the next session is all about generating outstanding
results!    Who’s  with  me?
Up  until  now  we’ve  talked  about  the  importance  of  
entrepreneurial thinking. Now I would like to briefly talk
about Gamification. How Gamification can give you the
ability to go through tremendous changes, just by going
through a 3 hour workshop. We want to emphasize why a
game based workshop is so effective. Here is a video which
shows how Gamification helped change behavior.

Game	
  Instructions
The Goal of the Game:
Reach  the  “Winner”  lot  in  90  min
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Game Instructions 20
Like any good business, you
want to know where to begin.
Each player begins at the
“Start”  square with the
objective of reaching the
winner lot which is located in
the island, within 90 minutes
and without having any loans
from the bank. Each player in
turn, rolls the die and moves in
the direction of the arrows
according to the number of the die. The direction in which to move is according to the arrows on the
board.
When arriving at a new lot the player first performs the action according to the title of that lot (a
description of the titles appears on the Icon Explanation sheet on each table.
If the lot is empty (with no image on it) and the lot does not already have a business built on it the lot is
considered  “Vacant  for  Business”.    The  player  may  choose  to  establish  one  of  his/her  available  
businesses on that lot.
There are 4 quadrants on the
board. To move from one
quadrant to another one must
pay a toll fee (once paid) that
player may move back and
forth through that particular
toll passage as much as he/she
wants. The lot of toll itself is
counted as a step on the
board.
Each player begins with some
money but needs to generate
income during the game in order to advance through the quadrants.
You  begin  the  game  on  the  “Start”  lot.
Throw  the  dice  &  move  in  the  direction  of  the  arrows…
As you pass through the first two sections,
you will need to pay the Toll Fee of 2 Million Dollars.
21 Game Instructions | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
You will need to generate a total of
$9,000,000.
Each player receives 8 cards representing businesses at
the beginning of the game.
Each card  states  the  name  of  the  business  in  the  card’s  
title, the cost of establish the business is on the bottom of
the card and the profit granted by that business is in the
center of the card.
When a player wants to establish a new business on a
vacant lot, the player must pay the establishment fee for
that business to the bank and place the business on the lot
indicating that the business is no longer a vacant lot.
When a player lands on a business belonging to another
player, that player pays the owner the profit of the
business he/she landed on.
When a player lands on his/her business, the bank pays
that player the profit for that business.
When  a  player  lands  on  a  lot  with  the  title  “Collect  Profits”,  
he/she receives the sum of all the profits from the
businesses owned by the player on the board.
In all cases the person collecting money must request it. If the turn moves on to the next player without
collecting money that should have been collected (from another or the bank) is not paid out.
To enter the Island, you need to land
exactly on  the  “Pass  To  The  Island”  lot
and pay the final toll fee of 5 Million Dollars
As you go through the game, you can start
businessesto generate profits
How to start your business:
1. Place the business of your choice on
the vacant lot you are standing on.
2. Pay the establishment cost to bank
You  profit  every  time  that…
1. Anther  player  stands  on  your  business…
(Collect the business profit from the player)
2. You  stand  on  your  business…
(Collect the business profit from
the bank
3. You  stand  on  “Collect  Profit”  title…
(Collect the sum of profits of all
your businesses on the board)
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Game Instructions 22
Most of the lots have titles above them.
If the color title is red the player must follow the action indicated by the
title.
If the title icon is green the player may choose whether to perform the
action ornot.
All Icons in the Island are mandatory.
These actions are performed as soon as the player lands on the lot with a relevant title.
Each card describes a business situation. This situation is relevant for all
the players.
Example:
If the card states that all profits are reduced by 50%, then as long
as this card is the active business opportunity all players can only
collect 50% of the profits they would have collected (from other
player or from the bank) if this card was not active.
If the card states that each player in turn may open a new business on any vacant lot, then each
player may choose to open a new business if desired.
Once a new card is drawn from the pile, it is placed on top of the previously opened card; the previous
Business Opportunity is no longer in play and from that point on, the new card displays the current
business opportunity. Each time a player lands on a lot titled Business Opportunity, the opportunity
may be changed.
Another portion of the situation described on the card is the price of the stock market. At the bottom of
the each Business Opportunity card you can see the current price for shares on the stock market.
Each Action Card describes an action that player can
perform and a tip on when it would be best to use that
card. Each player may use one card during each
player’s  turn,  meaning  each  player  can  use  one  card  in  
their  own  turn  and  one  card  during  another  player’s  
turn, meaning each player can use one card in their
own  turn  and  one  card  during  another  player’s  turn  as  
well. When a player chooses to use an action card,
he/she should read the card aloud to all the players and
immediately takes action accordingly. After the action

is performed the card is place back in the main pile of Action Cards at the bottom of the main pile of
action cards.
The tolls lots are counted as steps among the number of steps
allowed by the die.
In order to enter the Island, a player must land exactly on the
entrance square and must pay $5,000,000.
Once a player has entered the Island that player cannot be
removed to another location on the board using action cards. A player who is required to pay the bank
or another player and does not have the money to do so and is unable to come up with a solution for
the situation is declared bankrupted. The player is out of the game and all is his/her businesses are
removed from the board.
We are going to call each member at your game your team. If you have a question, ask a team member
and if collaboratively, as a team cannot find a solution, as a facilitator.
All business related activities  between  players  is  both  allowed  and  recommended,  as  long  as  the  game’s  
rules are not breached. For example: one player may loan money to another or sell businesses to each
other, creating partnerships and so on.
Ready to start?
Choose one of the players to be the banker.
Place the chips by the banker chosen.
Each player chooses a character with whom to play the game.
The character should be placed on the start lot with the big
black arrow (bottom right corner of the board) and each player
should take the pile of business cards for their character into hand. The banker deals five Action Cards
to each player to start with (once used, the cards are returned to the bottom of the pile).
The banker opens the top Business Opportunity card, reads it to all the players (including the Stock
Price) and places it face up on the board (below the pile of closed cards) so everyone can see it.
Each player roles the numbered die to determine how much money he/she will start with. Each player
gets $1,000,000 times the number on the die; i.e, rolling a 3, results in the player starting with
$3,000,000.
The player with the lowest amount of starting money plays first and the game continues clockwise from
that person.

All interactions between players are allowed,
as  long  as  it  doesn’t  contradict  the  rules  of  the  game
(Loans,  Partnerships,  Buy,  Sell,  Agreements,  etc.)….

30 Minutes into the Game
“At  this point, loans will now be available from the bank in increments of $1 Million. If you would like to
take a loan of $1 Million you will need to pay a $300,000 security deposit and $100,000 in interest
before receiving the loan. When the bank receives this $400,000 you will receive $1 Million in a loan
card. To pay your loan back, give the bank $1 Million dollars and the loan card, and you will receive your
$300,000  deposit  in  return.    You  cannot  win  the  game  with  any  outstanding  loans  to  the  bank.”
Hand out Loan cards to bankers
45 minutes into the Game: Half Way Mark
“Everyone  take  a  minute  to  look  at  where  you  stand  right  now.    We  are  exactly  half  way  through  the  
game. Remind yourself of your objective and what your plan is for achieving it. What resources do you
have?    How  can  you  better  leverage  them?    Think  for  a  moment  about  how  you’ve  played  the  first  half  
of the game and take the second half of the game as an opportunity to try new ways of playing. You
have  45  minutes  left.    Good  luck!”

“You  will  now  also  have  the  opportunity  to  hire  an  amazing  coach  for  only  $1  Million  dollars.    If  you

Guidelines for Paid Coaching
Before starting any coaching, collect your $1 Million!
1. Start with identifying what the  player’s  goal  is.    Make  it  specific  as  possible.    Make  sure  they  get  
the difference between their ultimate goal and the steps they need to take to get there.
2. Next ask the player what is missing in order for them to reach their goal. Are they short on
cash?    Are  they  too  far  away  from  the  winner’s  circle?
Play
25 Group Reflection | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
3. Now  identify  what  resources  are  available  to  the  player.    Ask  don’t  tell.    Help  them  realize,  if  
they  haven’t  already,  that  they  have  MANY  resources  available,  ranging  from  their  own  Action  
cards, other players’  action  cards,  business  opportunities,  business  [initiations],  to  money,  
businesses,  loans,  stocks,  deals  with  other  players…etc.
4. Help the player in finding creative solutions to his/her challenge using the resources available to
them. Ask them questions like:
What is your goal?
What needs to happen in order to reach your goal?
How will you know you have achieved your goals?
How will you measure your goal?
What is between you and your goal? Money or Movement?
What’s  available  to  you?    What’s  available outside of your resources?
What is the business initiatives worth to you?
What do you have that could help you move closer to the winners circle?
Is there anything you could leverage to get more cash?
5. Walk  away  from  the  table!    It’s  the  coach’s  role to show the player how to play smarter an reach
their goals, not to DO it for them. Make sure to give them the tools and then let them use them
on their own.

“Think  about  how  you  just  played  that  game.  In  
what ways was it the same or different than the
way you act in real life? Was the way you felt and
acted while playing the game familiar to you?
Was there someone at your table who rubbed you the wrong way? How did that affect your game? Are
there people like this in your real life?

Share your experience &
bring those insights to life
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Group Reflection 26
Who would like to share an insight they had about themselves while playing the game? Something you
learned  about  how  you  show  up  in  real  life.”
[You  can  go  one  by  one  if  it’s  a  small  group  or  pick  a  few  people  if  you  are  short  on  time.    We  want  to  
hear  about  people’s  understanding  of themselves, not about the game itself. As a coach, your role is to
get the players to have a breakthrough. It is not your job to make sure everyone is happy or comfortable.
Change  is  usually  not  comfortable  and  will  require  a  stretch.  Don’t  be  afraid  to push the players toward
new ways of thinking and being. Remember this is your workshop and you are in charge. If others
disagree- that’s  ok!]
Possible questions Include: What was your goal? What did you notice about the way you played? Is
that familiar in real life? What will you take from the game into your life? How will your life be different
if you acted in that new way? Why is that important to you?
If  someone  tries  to  talk  about  the  game,  bring  it  back  to  their  experience.    “Are  you  usually disappointed
with opportunities you are given? Is it normal for you to be analytical of learning experiences? What is it
that  you  want  in  your  life  that  you  didn’t  get  tonight?”...etc]
Now  that  this  game  is  over,  let’s  turn  back  to  how  we  play  the  game  of  “real  life”.    How  different  would  
your life be if you were playing without the limiting beliefs you played this game with?
I’m  going  to  show  you  a  cartoon  video  that  makes  a  very  important  point.
So, are you ready for some more dimensions?!
YEH! Ok great – well here we go!
Sometimes we view life as two dimensional just
like in the game where we see our starting point
and the goal and then move forward from point A
to point B.
While multidimensional thinking uses many
different dimensions together in order to achieve
better and faster results i.e.; discovering short cuts
and quantum leaps
From:
2-D thinking
To:
Multi-Dimensional Thinking
27 Group Reflection | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
We started off with a flat board and general guide
lines describing our starting point and goal.
Then we started to layer it with more and more
rules, options, and opportunities. We call these;
dimensions, since each one of these layers opens
up an entirely new realm of possibilities to interact
with and to use. Some of you looked at the
dimensions as rules and restrictions that were
confusing or complicated. But those of you who
saw the dimensions as possibilities for exponential
growth definitely had a more fun and successful
game!
Let’s  take  a  look  at  the  analogy  between  the  dimensions  of  the  game  and  real  life:
[It’s  important  for  the  players  to  realize  that the dimensions are representative and not literal. When we
go over the dimensions we want to ask who did not use each particular dimension, and occasionally ask
for  some  reasons  why  they  chose  not  to.    The  goal  is  to  uncover  some  of  the  “limiting  beliefs”  that  cause  
people  to  miss  out  on  leveraging  opportunities  for  success.    It’s  not  “bad,  good,  right,  or  wrong”  if  they  
did  or  didn’t  take  advantage  of  a  dimension,  but  rather  an  area  that  we  want  to  bring  awareness  to  so  
that next time they can choose to use it from a place of conscious power and not from an unconscious
and inherited limiting belief.]
Dice: Action/Movement
The die resembles the speed of our progress and the size of our next steps towards our goal and
milestones we have set along the way. Sometimes we take a huge step and end up with consequences
that  we  either  expected  or  didn’t.
How  fast  and  how  often  do  we  take  action?  Often  people  don’t  take  action;  they  don’t  roll  the  die  
because of fear... Fear of failure, fear of the unknown, fear of making a mistake, fear of succeeding, etc.
But  when  we  don’t  act,  nothing  changes.    So  many  people  get  stuck  on  the  time  they  once  acted  and  
failed,  so  they  stop  trying.    Don’t  ever  get  stuck  on  last  turn’s  roll,  just  keep  throwing  the  dice!
Coaching: Learning from Others
Common  beliefs  about  coaching:  I  don’t  want  help,  I  don’t  need  help,  getting  help  is  “cheating”,  I  didn’t  
really win because I had help, and I want to succeed by myself.
Are things already good for you? Great! They can still get better through the growth and development
that comes through coaching. Examples: Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan has a coach!
Multi Dimensional Thinking
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Group Reflection 28
Coaching  is  about  using  someone  else’s  point  of  view  as  a  tool.  We  all  have  a  different  point  of  view  
which is created and limited by our unique life experiences. The more quality point of views we have
access to, the more educated of a decision we can make about things.
“I’ve  seen  so  far  because  I  stand  on  the  shoulders  of  giants.”  ~Galileo
”Smart  people  learn  from  their  mistakes,  but  brilliant  people  learn  from  the  mistakes  of  other.”
Team: Competition vs. Collaboration
We is the new me. We go a lot more in depth about how and why this is true these days, but in short-
The new game of business and organization is based on collaboration not competition. Talk about
Kickstarter, Wefunder, etc...
Life and economics are not zero-sum games. What I achieve does not detract from your achievements,
and on the contrary, it probably could only help. Did you notice that the first person to get to the island
had  the  opportunity  to  advance  others  to  the  “Pass  to  the  Island”  spot?  We  get  much  further  ahead  
working together as a team than as opponents.
We were brought up playing games and going to school with the notion that there is one winner and
everyone else  loses,  but  life  isn’t  like  that.  We  can  all  achieve  our  goals.  It’s  possible  for  everyone  to  win  
in life.
There’s  no  second  place  in  life.  Do  you  get  on  the  bus  and  say  “oh  no  - I got on the bus 5th
”!    No  because  
your goal is to get where you need to go &  it  doesn’t  matter!
If we play our marriage like a competition it will most likely end in divorce. If we play driving like a
competition it will most likely end in an accident or death.
Looking at life through the lens of collaboration and not competition is more successful, full of more
opportunities, and is also WAY more enjoyable.
Competition  is  NOT  the  reason  we  fail.  We  fail  if  we  aren’t  creative,  adaptable,  or  flexible  enough  to  be  
different from others in our industry (Story of Wallmart founder who’s  idea  and  store  was  taken  from  
his landlord)
Loans: Buying money
Just like a computer or anything else we buy in order to improve our performance and success,
sometimes  we  need  to  buy  money.  In  life,  many  of  us  take  loans  all  the  time  but  they’re  disguised in
other names, such as mortgage, credit card, car payment, etc... It is only when we actually call a loan a
loan that some people get nervous about it.
Talk about the distinction between “good  debt”  versus “bad  debt”  just like good fat versus bad fat. A
loan for an asset is different from a loan for a liability i.e.: investing in a business vs. buying a television
set
29 Group Reflection | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
Money: The means to an end
$  is  not  the  goal,  it  is  just  a  resource.  This  game  just  like  the  game  of  life,  isn’t  about  how  much  money  
you have – it is simply a tool to help you achieve your objective.
Being able to use our resources to create money is another tool for achieving our goals. Instead of
focusing on money, zoom out, and focus more on your objectives and providing value, and then the
money will come.
Are we focused on accumulating money or creating a cashflow?
Stocks:	
  The	
  things	
  we	
  don’t	
  understand
Many of us look at the stock market like a casino, but to people who know how the stock market works,
it is not like a casino at all. People who understand the stock market can use it as a tool to create money
with little (& sometimes no) risk.
We  tend  to  be  afraid  and  shy  away  from  things  we  don’t  understand.  Think  about  how  different  your  life  
would be if you embraced and learned about  those  things  you  don’t  yet  know  or  understand.
You are probably just a few YouTube videos away from learning everything you need
A lot of our money is actually in the stock market already! Do you have insurance, a pension fund...
you’re  already  investing in the stock market.
Stocks  in  the  game  represent  the  tools  we  have  access  to  but  don’t  necessarily  understand.  The  more  of  
these tools we learn about and gain understanding from, the more resources we will have at our
fingertips for achieving our goals.
Casino: Risk
There is risk in almost EVERYTHING we do in life. Leaving your house in the morning is a risk, buying
something, having a baby, asking someone on a date... we play the casino many times every day. How
great would it be if some of the risks that we took in our life had 50/50 odds like in this casino? Do you
know  what  the  odds  are  of  opening  a  successful  business?  We’ll  get  to  that  soon!
Action Cards: What you have to offer
In  the  game  some  of  you  hid  the  cards  and  didn’t  even  realize  you  could  work  with  other  peoples’  Action  
Cards. Do you have a better chance at reaching your goal with 4 action cards or with 20?! S a m e thing
in  life.  Some  of  you  were  even  playing  with  0  action  cards  because  you  didn’t  even  know  what  cards  you  
had to leverage!
Action Cards in life are the various things you bring to the table. This can be knowledge, skills, talents,
strengths, resources, connections, languages...
FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Group Reflection 30
Do you let other people know about your talents and resources or do you selfishly keep them secret?
Are you looking for opportunities to collaborate with people who have complementary Action Cards or
are hiding your Action Cards from possible competitors?
Homework: make a list of 40 action cards! The more cognizant and aware you are of what you have to
offer the more leverage you will have in your life for getting what you want!
Business Opportunities: The opportunities available to us at all times
We all have many opportunities available to us at all times. Are we aware of them or are we so lost in
our own  brain  fog  that  we  don’t  see  them?
Reaching your goals is not dependent on what other people give to you, but rather the opportunities
you seek out and create for yourself. When you look at everything a s an opportunity to grow and
develop, then you will always win-even  if  you  don’t  get  what  you  expected.
Businesses: The source of money and energy
Starting businesses in the game is parallel to not only starting new businesses in life, but any source of
money  and  energy  that  supports  your  goals.  We’re  not  saying you should go out and set up 10
businesses or even 2. What we are talking about is having multiple streams of income. We need money
and energy to function in this world and we need to make sure we have those two resources coming in
from various places. Why?
Some  of  you  didn’t  set  up  many  businesses  in  the  beginning  because  you  were  thinking  that  the  only  
way you make money was if someone lands on it. But once you realized that you can collect profits and
reap the rewards of the seeds you planted all across the board, you were much more motivated to
create businesses.
In  the  FreshBiz  casino  you  had  50%  chance  of  winning.  That’s  a  way  better  chance  of  success  than  
starting a business in real life, where the statistics are that 90% of businesses fail in the first 3 years.
We’re  not  here  to  tell  you  not  to  open  that  new  business,  but  rather  what  you  can  do  to  creatively  be  a  
part of the winning 10%.
Taking calculated risks
“The  more  dimensions  we  master  the  better  results  we  
get. Raise your hands if you know, and you know that you
know that you will do much better when play FreshBiz
again for a second, third, and fourth time? OF COURSE!
For them any that go through our FreshBiz curriculum
around the world, you cannot even imagine the results
that are possible and are waiting for you as you develop
your skills and your thinking. Just like many of you know
how much better you will do in business and in life as you
Multi Dimensional Thinking
The more dimensions we master, the better results we get
31 Group Reflection | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook
gain more knowledge and experience.
Entrepreneurial thinking is a skill or a muscle which can be developed and improved.
Take a few moments now to begin writing a list of the different dimensions in your life and business. The
more  you  master  those  dimensions,  the  better  you  will  be  at  using  them  individually  &  in  combination.”
In the game we role the die and then move accordingly, but
could you just imagine how limiting it would be if all our
activity came from just the die? That would be like in real
life  getting  a  “safe  and  secure”  job  and  then  waiting  and  
hoping for the salary raise at the end of each year, and
maybe one day a promotion too which is definitely a step
forward but not the leap we deserve. There is no book
called the  “The  Millionaire  Employee”, Right? So we need to
go beyond the die!
In Multi Dimensional thinking we are looking for the Quantum Leaps. In the game, we can achieve
quantum leaps using Action Cards, Business Opportunities, partners, joint ventures and so on.
In real life, start thinking of what dimensions and resources we can put together that will make a huge
difference  rather  than  looking  for  the  small  steps  that  move  us  only  one  step  at  a  time.”
Take  30  seconds  to  share  a  Quantum  Leap  that  you’ve  achieved  in  your  life  from  playing  FreshBiz
When you arrived today, you were all individuals coming to
an event. Now that  you’ve  experienced  Entrepreneurial  
thinking  and  FreshBiz,  you’ve  moved  into  making  quantum  
leaps in order to move forward. Welcome to the FreshBiz

When you started, you might not have realized all
the opportunities available to you. But now you
are aware of them and will see them everywhere.
It will be up to you to take advantage of them.
How can you apply this to your life?
I invite you to think about how you can benefit
from endless opportunities?
“How  many  options  do  you  think  you  had  when  
you began the game? A handful? More than 10?
If you wanted to build a successful business in the field that interests you - How many options do you
think you could come up with to help you succeed?
“Whatever  the  number,  it  is  still  very  limiting.”
The truth is, there are...
“more  than  10,000  options  and  combinations of
options in the game even on the very first turn.
When you take into account all the people we can
interact with, and all the many opportunities for
leverage and consulting we actually have endless
options to choose from but still we might find it
challenging to come up with more than 10 and any
given time.
Victor Frankel a holocaust survivor and
psychologist who developed the treatment
“All  possibilities  exist  simultaneously,
It’s  our  point  of  view  that  determines
which  one  we  will  experience.”

Game	
  Changers
Games Changers is a full day event. You begin the same with the Win to the Winth Power workshop
then break for lunch. After lunch you will play the game again for 60 minutes with goals and skills the
host wants to emphasize. Loan, business initiatives and coaching is available from the beginning.
Enlarging the Pie – to Foster Collaboration
Goal  to  reach  the  winner’s  lot  with  4  times  what  you  started.    
To Foster Creativity
Goal: to get to the winners lot with $4,000,000. Every time they cross a toll, they need to give up all
their money to the bank except for $500,000. Rule, money cannot be given away to another player.
To Foster Risk/Movement
Use both dice. Green moves forward, red moves backwards. Once you land on the island lot, if you go
backwards, then you do not need to land on the island lot again to move into the island.
To Foster Collaboration – Money with Talent
Roll 6 = $6,000,000 + No Action Cards
Roll 1 = $1,000,000 + 5 Action Cards, etc.
The idea is to foster collaborate between the money holders and talent.
To Promote Different Ways of Thinking
1. Only use Action Cards on your own turn
2. Use all your Action Cards before reaching the business center.

The game offers the opportunity to act in new ways in an inconsequential setting.  In  other  words,  our  mind  doesn’t  know  the  difference  between  real  and  pretend.  Therefore,  the  
  • 6. 5 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook game is the perfect way for us to rewire our brains to behave in ways that are more beneficial to us. Practice  doesn’t  make  perfect,  but  rather  perfect  practice  makes  perfect,  and  since  repeated  actions   create new habits, the more you play the better you will get in real life! Because the insights achieved through the game reflect real life, not only will players be regularly reminded of their insights, but many will even deepen. Because of the above two points, the effects of the workshop are long lasting. Not a big bang workshop which leaves participants with a high that will fade, but rather small, valuable and lasting insights every time one plays. This is the difference between inspiration and transformation. Setting up the Room It’s important to set up the room so that no participant’s  back  it  to  the  presenter.  Arrange tables perpendicular to the presentation screen. Have a sign in sheet and be sure to follow up with each participant after the event. (See example in Apprendix) Setting up the Game 1. Place  the  “stock”  cards  on  the square between the two stock market bulls (the top right quadrant). 2. “Business  Opportunities”  cards  are  to  be  shuffled  and  placed  face  down on the green square for the Business Opportunities cards near the center of the board. 3. Shuffle  the  stack  of  “Action”  cards  and  place  them  face  down  on  the  blue  Action  Cards  squre  on   the left side of the board. 4. Have 2 copies of the Icon Explanations handout on each table for each and every game. (See Appendix – Icon Explanations Sheet) WinWin  Workshop  Presentation Good morning and welcome to your first FreshBiz Game-Based Workshop named Win to the Winth. For most of you this will be your first exposure to this way of thinking which is why we call this workshop Experiencing Entrepreneurial Thinking. This workshop is all about introducing and experiencing entrepreneurial thinking , but since this is only a 3-4 hour workshop all we can do is help open your mind to this way of thinking and experiencing entrepreneurial thinking for yourself. Later we will tell you how you too can implement these techniques into your entire life. For instance, through the advanced workshop you will be able to practice and then master entrepreneurial thinking. And through the Sandbox workshop you will be able to live entrepreneurial thinking. This workshop is all about experiencing entrepreneurial thinking.
  • 7. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 6 Why Win to the Winth Power? This workshop was created to help you think in multi-dimensional ways and to be able to create win to the winth power situations in everything you are doing. You want to be a winner and master each of the different dimensions. Thus by combing those dimensions do we win exponentially.    You’ll  see  that  it’s  not  about  you  and  the  other  guy  across  the  table  for win-win situations, which most people are already  used  to,  but  it’s  about  the  ability  to  create  situations  where   you have many more winners than those sitting around the table. You want not only your partners to be winners, your suppliers to be winners, your referrals, but you also want the entire globe and environment to be winners as well. That is the idea behind Win to the Winth Power. So who am I? My name is [ ] So  first  things,  first,  I’d  like  to  thank  you  for  being  here  and  showing  up.    Our  goal  for  today’s   presentation is to help you see and understand multidimensional thinking so you can immediately apply this to your life. This is not the type of workshop that you attend once and forget about it once you leave here today. So, please give yourselves a round of applause for taking the time out of your busy schedules to be here today. Showing up is 90% of success when you are talking about entrepreneurship or anything else in life, because  nothing  happens  if  you  don’t  show  up.    Too  many  good  ideas  never  see  the  light  of  day  because   no one actually showed up to make it a reality. We find all kinds of excuses, we tell ourselves all kinds of stories on why not to show up, throw the dice, take the action, take a risk, doing something. So actually showing up is the first step that you need in order generate change. Congratulations for showing up from your normal routine. Outline  for  today’s  workshop. Introduction session Game for 90 minutes.    Afterward  we’re   going to go over some of your experiences and insights while playing the game and how they relate to your life and discuss possible next steps. Introduce Escalator Video 90% of success is simply showing up! Welcome to the Game-Based Workshop for the Development of Entrepreneurial Thinking
  • 8. 7 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook I know this video is silly, but who here has ever been stuck in way or another? I know I have. I know one thing for sure,  it’s  not  funny  when  it  happens  to  you. Not only that but sometimes it can even happen more than once a day. Of course the video is an exaggeration but we all come across  things  we  just  don’t  know  how  to  deal  with  it.    To   others it might be obvious, just like in the video. But when we go through  it,  sometimes  it’s  difficult  to  see  the   solution.    It’s  very  familiar,  we  all  go  through  it.    I  want  you   all to feel comfortable, this is a safe place. We have all been in that situation, feeling stuck from time to time. Basically this is what entrepreneurial  thinking  is  all  about.    It’s  about  the  ability  to  move  yourself   ahead or forward when you find yourself stuck in a situation. So the idea is finding a way to move forward when you find yourself stuck on the escalator. Ask  question  “Is  it  easy solve the situation for  the  people  stuck  on  the  escalator?”       Okay,  “what  needs  to  be  done? Actually the problem is not about them moving their legs. As you saw, their legs are fine. They were able to get on the escalator. Moving forward requires a change in mindset. And in order to understand the mindset that is required to actually make the change and move forward and get to the end of the escalator,  they  need  to  be  able  to  answer  a  simple  question… Are you Happy? This is the first question we need to ask ourselves when we want to solve a situation when we feel stuck or unsatisfied with a particular situation. Most people find themselves in a situation that they are not happy  with,  that  they’re  not  satisfied  with  but  they  are  not   stopping to ask the  question,  “Are  you  happy?”    Am  I   satisfied with where I am, with the way my life looks like, with the way my business looks like. First of all we have to ask  the  question,  “Are  we  happy?” CLICK CLICK obviously there are only two ways to answer this Are you HAPPY?
  • 9. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 8 Yes and No. If  your  answer  is  yes,  then  that’s  pretty  easy. Then keep doing what you are doing. You are obviously doing something right. You are probably happy with the situation.    In  other  words,  if  it’s  working  for  you,  we  don’t   want to mess with it. We only want to deal with the parts that are not working for you in your life. If the answer to this question is No, well, then. What do you do now? That is if your answer is no. Let  audience  answer… There is a step, right before taking action, that we believe, is one of the most important questions that people  have  to  ask  themselves,  but  they  probably  won’t  or  they  don’t  and  that  is  … Do you want to be happy? Most people will say, of course I want to be happy that is a trivial question. But we believe this is one of the most important questions that has  to  be  asked  because  most  people  just  don’t  ask  this   question.    Let  me  ask  you,  “Have  you  ever  come  across   someone  who’s  not  really  happy  with  his  job  but  still   holding on to that same  position  for  20  years?”    “Do  you   know someone who’s  not  satisfied  with  his/her  relationship,  but  keeps  living  with  the  same  person  for   decades?”  “Do  you  know  someone  who  is  not  satisfied  with  the  results  in  his  business  but  keeps  running   the same business  the  same  old  way?”    Sure  we  all  know  them.    The  reason  this  is  happening  is  because   we  are  not  stopping  to  ask  ourselves,  “Do  we  want  to  be  happy?”    And  we  are  not  stopping  to  ask   ourselves this question because we are raised by our parents and the educational system, society that life  isn’t  supposed  to  be  about  being  happy,  being  satisfied.    It’s  okay  to  have  a  lousy  relationship,  a   lousy business, a lousy job, life is not a picnic, this is part of life, life is on a scale of suffer, all kinds of limited  beliefs  that  we’ve  been  raised  to  believe  that  we  shouldn’t  do  anything  to  improve  ourselves  and   YES NO Keep doing whatever you’re  doing DO you wantto be happy?
  • 10. 9 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook our situations and change something about it. So, the most important question that you should ask yourself,  is,  “Do  I  want  to  be  happy?”   Now if the answer is No Then  keep  doing  what  you’ve  been  doing.    You’ll  keep   getting the same results, everything will stay the same. But if your answer is yes What do you suppose we do? Let audience answer We change something Einstein said the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. And  that’s  exactly  what  entrepreneurial  thinking  is  all  about.    If  you   want  to  generate  new  results  if  you  want  to  change  the  situation  you’ve  got  to  change  something. So basically entrepreneurial thinking is all about being able to generate change NO Keep doing whatever you’re  doing YES CHANGE SOMETHING Changing the way you play life
  • 11. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 10 We want you to gain the skills and ability to change the way you play life. Life is a game and we all play it. So  what  do  I  mean  by  “Play”  life  and  life  is  a  game.    We  don’t  mean  it  in  a  silly or playfulness way, we mean it in a way that has rules, skills and once you know the rules and once you master the skills, then you can generate your own results. This is what life is all about; this is what FreshBIz is all about.    It’s  all  about  changing  the  way  you  play  life  to  get  the  new  results  that  you  would   like in your life. So how do we generate change? I want to emphasize the word Generate, because  we  see  “Generating”  or  entrepreneurship  as  the  third   level of 3 levels. The first and basic level is the level of victimizing oneself, being a victim. Things happen to you, circumstances happen to you, and you just blame everything and everyone. You blame the circumstances, you blame the economy, you blame the boss, and you blame everyone for your shitty  life  and  your  shitty  results  or  whatever.    This  is  called  victimizing  yourself.    That’s  the  lowest  and   we  don’t  deal  with  this.    The  second  level  is  being  responsible.    Being  responsible  is  the  ability  to   respond to situations as they occur. Response ability, this is where things happen to you, where all kinds of circumstances come into your life, but now you have the ability to respond to them and be able to  control  your  life  in  a  way  that  you’re  not  just  a  victim  of  the circumstances, but you can act according to the different situations that you come across in your life. The third level is that of an entrepreneur, is being able to generate the reality that you want to create in your  life.    It’s  not  waiting  for  something  to  happen  and  then  we  act  on  it,  it’s  being  able  to  generate   change.    Just  to  say  to  yourself,  “This  is  the  reality  that  I  want  to  create,  these  are  the  results  that  I  want   to  create”,  and  just  go  and  do  it.    You’re  not  just  in  a  position  of  reacting; you’re  in  a  position  of   generating.    This  is  why  it’s  all  about  how  to  generate  change.    With FreshBiz as you play the game, sometimes you are reacting, sometimes you take responsibility. But in order to be successful and happy we need to be able to generate change. You see an idea, you see a result, and you just go and do it. “What  is  required  in  order  to  generate  change?    Think  back  to  the  people  on  the  escalator  video,  they   wanted to generate change right? What is needed for them to generate change? Good, today we are going to talk about 3 ways to generate change. Every time you find yourself stuck, you know that there is a limiting belief  that’s  keeping  you  stuck   there. There is always one. So, if you go back to the example of the people stuck on the escalator, what limiting belief are they holding? They are holding the limited belief that in order to get from point A to point B, the escalator has to move.    That’s  their  limiting belief. Once they get over  that,  it’s  pretty  easy  to  solve  the  problem, right? But as long as they keep holding to that How do we generate change? Question your basic beliefs
  • 12. 11 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook belief, they will be stuck on the escalator,probably for the entire weekend, because it looked like there was no one in the mall to come and help them, right? So always look for the limiting belief. So, how do you  find  the  limiting  belief?    That’s  pretty  easy.     BTW, you might find yourself stuck on the escalator while playing the game. First, remember this is a safe place and second you have to generate change in order to win. Whenever you are stuck ask yourself, am I happy with my situation, do I want to be happy? If the answer is yes, then when you get stuck ask yourself what is my limiting belief here in this situation. So how do you find your limiting belief?    It’s  very  easy.    All  you  have to do is ask questions, and you keep asking  questions,  until  you  come  to  a  question,  where  the  answer  is,  “Well,  that’s  life.”    “That’s  the  way   it  works.”    When  you  come  to  this  answer,  you  just  found  your  limiting belief.    I’ll  give  you  an  example,   let’s  say  for  example  you  want  to  start  a  business.    So  you  say,  “Can  I  start  a  business?”    “Well  in  order  to   start a business I need some money. Can I get money? In order to get money I need to go to the bank and get a loan. Can I get a loan? Well in order to get a loan I need to put up some collateral. Do I have any  assets  to  use  as  collateral?  No.    So  can  I  get  money?  No.    Why  can’t  I  get  money?  Because  I  can’t  get   a  loan  if  I  don’t  have  assets  for  collateral  for  the  bank.    Why  not?  Because  that’s  the  way  the banking system works. This is the limiting belief. Once you realize that you put yourself in a situation where the answer  to  your  question  is,  “that’s  the  way  life  is”,  you  just  found  your  limiting belief. Because of course there are several ways to go around about raising money to start a business without using assets for collateral for a loan. There can be all kinds of solutions but once you find yourself stuck in a situation, when  you  say,  “This  is  life  and  this  is  why  I’m  stuck”  you  just  found  your limiting belief. After you find your limiting belief what is the next step? Now, you have to look at things differently. Remember the guys stuck on the escalator? They just found out that their limiting belief is that the escalator has to move. Now, if I change my point of view, what can happen? There are a few possibilities. Maybe someone can come over and fix the escalator. Maybe I can move. Maybe someone will come and pick me up and take me to the top of the stairs. There are all kinds of possible solutions relevant to this situation. So you have to look at things from a different prospective. Change your point of view. When you realize what your limiting belief is, you find different perspectives. You look at it from a different way, now what? Change your point of view
  • 13. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 12 We have to take all those new insights, new beliefs, the new point of view, the new perspective and we have to transform it, to transfer it to life. To generate action, to do something and it has to be something different, something that you  haven’t  done  before,  something   that is new to you, because if you keep doing the thing you are used to doing,  you’ll  keep getting the same  results.    We’ve  been  through  that  already  with  Einstein’s  quote  and  the  definition  of  insanity.    So   knowing the limiting beliefs, having new insights about it, having a different point of view about it is not enough.    You  have  to  act  on  it  and  you  have  to  do  something  that  you  haven’t  done  before.    And  just  to   remind you, you are going to come across situations like this in life and in the game that you will be playing in a few minutes. So to reiterate, how do we generate change? And this leads us back to my original question what is Entrepreneurial thinking? What do you think? Now this is our definition of Entrepreneurial  thinking.    “We  define   Entrepreneurial thinking as turning an idea into reality. This is essentially creating something from nothing. Now some  of  you  might  be  thinking  I’m  not  a  business  owner  or  I’m  not  thinking about starting a new business. Well, we believe that Entrepreneurial thinking is a mindset, a skill that is relevant for almost any segment of life, business, relationships, parenting, whatever. We are all turning ideas into reality. So  that’s  one  thing.    The  second  thing  I  want you to realize is that entrepreneurial skills are something that  we  all  have.    It’s  not  that  either  you’re  born  with  it  or  not,  you  can  be  an  entrepreneur  or  you’re   not.    It’s  a  mindset  and  it’s  a  skill,  so  it’s  only  a  question  of  what  level  of  entrepreneur are you? What Do Something different How to generate change 1. Question your basic beliefs 2. Change your point of view 3. Do something different What is entrepreneurial thinking? Turning ideas into reality
  • 14. 13 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook level of skills do you have? How close are you to mastering the skills of being an entrepreneurial thinker? Because we all turn ideas into reality. Here are some examples of Entrepreneurial Thinking: Here are some pictures of how New York City was created in the last 200 years. First one is of 1876, the next is 1952, the third is 1988 and finally  2013.    It’s  a  big  idea   turning into big reality. It requires a lot of skills, collaboration, opportunities, action cards, this is a big project. Of course you need entrepreneurial thinking to make this happen. This is a picture of a paver that paves tiles. The business owner used Enterpreneurial thinking to generate this amazing machine. To generate ideas or projects inside of an existing business. Because if you are an executive in corporate almost everything you do is about turning ideas into reality. Most of us are what we are called  “knowledge  workers”.    We  are  no  longer  just  sitting  by  a  machine,  turning  a  wheel,  expecting  a   product to come out at the end  of  the  machine.    We  are  all  “knowledge  workers”; which basically means, we are getting paid to turn ideas into reality. All kinds of ideas; it can be ideas about marketing, about production, about sales, about manufacturing, whatever. But we basically get paid to turn ideas into reality. So everything that has to do with business has to do with entrepreneurial thinking.
  • 15. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 14 But entrepreneurial thinking is not only for business. For instance a parent for a child, you wake up in the morning, you go to the fridge, you see 2 slices of bread and  some  cheese  and  that’s  all  you’ve  got  in  your   refrigerator. You can either, complain and whine that there is nothing to eat, or create a creative idea and turn it into a very fun, cute sandwich. This requires Entrepreneurial thinking, turning ideas into reality. So it’s  relevant  to  almost  everything  you  do  in  your  life.     And we want you to understand that just by showing up to the FreshBiz workshop, just being here attending this workshop, you can get added value not just for your business or your job, you can get added value for your life. So why entrepreneurial thinking so relevant nowadays? Everybody’s  talking   about entrepreneurship and creative thinking and the new game of life and the new game of  business.    It’s  a   big buzz word right now. And we have, the new skills for becoming and developing your entrepreneurial thinking. Well we call I believe one of the most powerful tools to teach how to handle the new game of life and the game of business. But in order to do so, we just want to emphasize why this is so important nowadays to have it the Abundance Paradox and the Flea Circus. What is the Abundance Paradox? We all live now in a world that is full of options, opportunities and resources. Ask: Who here has experienced any change in the world in the last 6 or 7 years? Because everyone in the world is experiencing this change in the world now. Everyone knows that the way that we live now is totally different than the way we used to live 20 or 30 years ago or even 10 years ago. I really want to emphasize the point that we have gotten to a point in the development of human kind that we actually have access to endless opportunities, options and resources. We have abundance of The Abundance Paradox & the Flea Circus
  • 16. 15 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook options available to us at any given moment. And just to give some examples, we have access to all knowledge known to human kind just by going to Google and searching. If you go to Google and you search for something and you get zero results, then you probably know you have a typo, right? And just by having access to all this knowledge that is available to world inhabitants gives you endless opportunities  because  you  shouldn’t  be  stuck  in  a  situation  where  you  want  to  do  something  but  you   don’t  know how  to  do  it  or  you  don’t  have  access  to  the  information.    We  now  have  access  to  almost   any information that you are looking for. You also have access to almost anyone around the globe. We have more than a billion people connected together with social media websites like Facebook, LinkedIn, Skypee  and  Twitter  and  what’s  even  more  amazing  is  you  can  contact  all  these  people  for  free.    We  can   also get anywhere. Nowadays, in less than 24 hours and less than $3,000 dollars, you can get yourself to any point around the world and do whatever you want to do there. We have access to unlimited resources to turn our ideas into reality. Although, this is not the experience that most people go through. They are not just moving along, taking ideas, turning them into reality, everything flows, I have access to everything. I have resources available to me and I feel the abundance and I feel the flow and things are really easy and I thrive and succeed in everything that I do. On the contrary, most people are living in a situation where they are struggling, they  are  compromising,  and  they  don’t  really  know  how  to  make  things  happen  for  them.    This  is  why   we  call  it  a  paradox.    On  one  hand  we  have  everything  available  to  us,  but  on  the  other  hand,  we  don’t   seem to be able to use all those resources to have a better life, thrive and succeed. Why is that? The reason  we  are  experiencing  this  paradox  is  because  of  what  we  call  the  “flea  Circus”   Well, we are all a bit like fleas. The fleas were put in the jar for 3 days, we’ve  been  put  in  the  jar  for  over  200   years. From around the beginning of the  industrial  revolution,  we’ve  been   taught to act and think in a certain way. And that was relevant for about 160-170 years. Just to let you know, about 30 years ago, they took off the lid. About 6 or 7 years ago, they took away the entire jar. But we keep on jumping according the limit of the jar. And just like the video, when the fleas reproduced and the new generation of fleas kept jumping at the limits of the jar although they never experienced an actual jar in their lives. Same thing here with us. We are running FreshBiz workshops for kids from the age of 10, 12 and 15. Those were kids that were brought up in a world that has no limits. No jar. But spending 7 or 8 years in their  parent’s  home  and  the  educational  system,  they  are  already  jumping  within  the  virtual  jar.    And   this is why most people are not able to enjoy all that we have around us, all those options,
  • 17. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 16 opportunities,  resources.    Doesn’t  matter  how  big is the table around them; they keep jumping in the limits of the jar. This  is  what  entrepreneurial  thinking  is  all  about.    This  is  what  FreshBiz  is  all  about.    It’s  about  creating   the mindset that people can understand that there is no longer a jar to jump in. They can go wherever they want; they can jump all over the table and have a blast. This workshop is to introduce the idea of it and make you aware so you too can have the skills and the knowledge on how to take advantage of all those new opportunities. Welcome to the FreshBiz World. I want to emphasize the point that you can no longer keep doing  the  things  you’ve  been   doing so far. Some of you might  be  thinking  I’m  fine   with  what  I’m  doing.      I  don’t   want to be an entrepreneur or  I  don’t  need  to meet new people or need opportunities. I  don’t  want  to  travel  or  have   a  blast.    Let’s  just  keep  things   the way they are. Unfortunately, by doing the things  you’ve  always  done  is   not going to give you the same results you had in the past. I hope you understand how very important this is because some people still have the wrong mindset about generating change. They think that they need to generate change in order to get better results. But we are now living in a situation that you have to generate change just to keep  the  same  results  you’ve  been  used  to.    If  we  compare  the  effort  needed  to  be  done,  let’s  say  40   years  ago,  in  the  70s,  to  what’s  needed  to  be  done  now,  in  2013  we  can  see  that  if  you  put  the  same   efforts  into  whatever  you’ve  been  doing,  you’re  not  going  to  keep  getting  the  same  results.     For  an  example,  40  years  ago,  you  put  reasonable  efforts  into  building  a  career,  you’re  probably  going  to   end  up  where  you’re  used  to  end  up,  with  reasonable  results.    You’ve  probably  had  a  good  job,  you  kept it for 30 years. You got your pension, you could probably even buy a house or something. That was the realty  for  most  people  40  years  ago.    Well  that’s  not  relevant  anymore.    If  you  put  in  reasonable  efforts   into  building  a  career,  probably  you’re  not going to stay in the same job for 40 years, 30 years. Probably you’re  not  going  to  get  a  pension  at  all,  since  companies  don’t  offer  this  anymore.    And  most  won’t  be   able to buy a house. You have to put extraordinary effort just to be able to have enough money to have a retirement account and buy a house. Not taking into consideration even just the fact that people are Results vs Efforts
  • 18. 17 WinWin Workshop Presentation | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook now living 20 or 30 years more than they used to. How do we keep living? How do we keep making money? In order to generate income, you have to think about it in a different way. Now this is relevant not only for running a business or having a job. This is also relevant for your relationships too. 40 years ago if you put reasonable effort into your relationship, chances are that you will end up with a decent relationship with the same person for 40 years. No more. If you put reasonable efforts into running a relationship, most chances, actually more than 50 percent end up in divorce. 25% of people that are getting married are getting divorced in the first year of their marriage. You have to put extraordinary efforts into keeping your relationships. Same thing goes towards your health.    40  years  ago,  if  your  put  reasonable  efforts  into  your  health,  into  whatever  you’re  doing,  eating, exercising,  you’ll  probably  end  up  in  good  shape  at  the  age  of  60,  70  or  80.    That’s  also  not  relevant   anymore,  if  you  just  put  reasonable  efforts  into  your  health,  you’ll  find  yourself  with  30  percent  with   cancer or all kinds of other diseases. Because this is just not the same world people used to live 40 years ago.    It’s  not  the  same  economy,  it’s  not  the  same  environment,  it’s  not  the  same  society,  it’s  not  the   same  food,  it’s  not  the  same  air.    Everything  is  changing  just  keep  doing  whatever  your parents were doing,  what  you’ve  been  doing  for  30  years,  won’t  do  it  anymore.    You  have  to  understand  that  things   are changing and you have to change with it. And this is where entrepreneurial thinking comes along, this is where implementing a new way of thinking will serve you the best. What we want is to put reasonable efforts in and create outstanding results. And this is why we need entrepreneurial thinking. What exactly generates the results that we see in our life. So here is our world of results.    It’s  made  up  of   3 elements CLICK – The options we see For  instance  if  we  don’t  see  the   landing on the moon as an option, we’re  probably  not  going  to  see  it  as   a result as well. Only when we saw it  as  an  option  then  we’ve  been  able   to create a reality about it. So, first it’s  made  of  the  options  we  see  in   life. CLICK – What we believe is possible for us Because  sometimes  we  do  see  options  but  we  don’t  see  it  as  something  that  is  possible  for  us.    We  see  it   as something that is possible for other people, other countries, other realities, other way of life, but for us. So in order for it to be able to turn it into a reality into results we have to see that this is possible for us. Our results The options we see What we believe is possible for us The action we take
  • 19. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | WinWin Workshop Presentation 18 CLICK – The Actions we take The things we do because results that show up in our life are part of what we do, the actions we take. This is how the world of results is made. This is how things look to us. The idea of entrepreneurial thinking  is  creating  better  results.    I’m  sure  all  of  you  would  like  to  create  better  results in your life. Who would like to create or generate better results in their life in some area? Raise your hand. All of you who did not raise their hand you are free to go because everything that goes on in the workshop from now on is all about creating  better  results.    So  if  you  are  not  interested  in  that  feel  free  to  leave  you’re   just saving two hours of a workshop. Some people like to work in Plan A in order to achieve 5 or 10 percent improvement in whatever you want  to  generate  change.    It’s  easy just  get  up  an  hour  earlier  and  work  that  much  harder.    It’s  been   done  before  and  that’s  how  it’s  been  done  for  the  past  40  years  and  it’s  been  called  the  rat  race.    We  at   FreshBiz believe that the rat race era is over. There is a limit to how early you can wake up and how hard  you  can  work.    And  we’ve  just  reached  this  limit.    Welcome  to  the  entrepreneurship  era.     CLICK CLICK – Outstanding Results Plan B is generating outstanding results, something that is totally different. Totally different in the quality of the result that you are experiencing in your life. It can be results around business, relationships,  health,  whatever.    In  order  to  create  outstanding  results,  it’s  not  enough  to  wake  up  an   hour  early  and  work  a  bit  harder  because  you  can’t  work  10 times harder just to generate 10 times the results because as we said a moment ago there is a limit to how hard you can work. Now entrepreneurial  thinking  is  not  about  that,  it’s  about  doing  something  different,  having  more  fun,  having   a different mindset that can change dramatically the result that you will experience in your life. Please keep  in  mind  it’s  not  about  the  quantity  but  about  the  quality  of  the  results  because  you  can’t  measure   results for your relationships or your health in quantity but in quality. FreshBiz is about teaching people a  new  lifestyle.    That  lifestyle  can  be  implemented  into  business,  relationships,  health,  whatever.    But  it’s   about living life in a different way, using a different mindset, using a different set of skills that will generate outstanding results for yourself. So the next session is all about generating outstanding results!    Who’s  with  me? Up  until  now  we’ve  talked  about  the  importance  of   entrepreneurial thinking. Now I would like to briefly talk about Gamification. How Gamification can give you the ability to go through tremendous changes, just by going through a 3 hour workshop. We want to emphasize why a game based workshop is so effective. Here is a video which shows how Gamification helped change behavior. Introducing: Gamification
  • 20. 19 Common Questions Asked | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook Common  Questions  Asked Can  I…? Answers: “You  can  do  whatever  you’d  like  as  long  as  it  does  not  contradict  the  rules  of  the  game.”     “What  do  you  think  the  best  thing  for  you  to  do  would  be? “How  can  you  create  what  you  are  looking  for?” “You’re  an  entrepreneur,  practice  your  creativity.” “Will  it  help  you  in  achieving  your  objective?” What if I run out of money? “What  happens  if  you  run  out  of  money  in  life,  what  will  you  need  to  do?    Better  get  creative.” Keep a pen and paper handy to write down the various limiting beliefs an comments that players express during the game. These utterances can be used later for fun and reflection. Stocks “The  active  Business  Opportunity  card  is  what  establishes  the  current  price  for  buying  and  selling  stocks,   and the prices range from $300,000 to $2 Million. You can buy or sell up to 2 shares of stock when you land  on  a  lot  with  a  “Stock”  icon.” Game  Instructions The Goal of the Game: Reach  the  “Winner”  lot  in  90  min
  • 21. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Game Instructions 20 Like any good business, you want to know where to begin. Each player begins at the “Start”  square with the objective of reaching the winner lot which is located in the island, within 90 minutes and without having any loans from the bank. Each player in turn, rolls the die and moves in the direction of the arrows according to the number of the die. The direction in which to move is according to the arrows on the board. When arriving at a new lot the player first performs the action according to the title of that lot (a description of the titles appears on the Icon Explanation sheet on each table. If the lot is empty (with no image on it) and the lot does not already have a business built on it the lot is considered  “Vacant  for  Business”.    The  player  may  choose  to  establish  one  of  his/her  available   businesses on that lot. There are 4 quadrants on the board. To move from one quadrant to another one must pay a toll fee (once paid) that player may move back and forth through that particular toll passage as much as he/she wants. The lot of toll itself is counted as a step on the board. Each player begins with some money but needs to generate income during the game in order to advance through the quadrants. You  begin  the  game  on  the  “Start”  lot. Throw  the  dice  &  move  in  the  direction  of  the  arrows… As you pass through the first two sections, you will need to pay the Toll Fee of 2 Million Dollars.
  • 22. 21 Game Instructions | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook You will need to generate a total of $9,000,000. Each player receives 8 cards representing businesses at the beginning of the game. Each card  states  the  name  of  the  business  in  the  card’s   title, the cost of establish the business is on the bottom of the card and the profit granted by that business is in the center of the card. When a player wants to establish a new business on a vacant lot, the player must pay the establishment fee for that business to the bank and place the business on the lot indicating that the business is no longer a vacant lot. When a player lands on a business belonging to another player, that player pays the owner the profit of the business he/she landed on. When a player lands on his/her business, the bank pays that player the profit for that business. When  a  player  lands  on  a  lot  with  the  title  “Collect  Profits”,   he/she receives the sum of all the profits from the businesses owned by the player on the board. In all cases the person collecting money must request it. If the turn moves on to the next player without collecting money that should have been collected (from another or the bank) is not paid out. To enter the Island, you need to land exactly on  the  “Pass  To  The  Island”  lot and pay the final toll fee of 5 Million Dollars As you go through the game, you can start businessesto generate profits How to start your business: 1. Place the business of your choice on the vacant lot you are standing on. 2. Pay the establishment cost to bank You  profit  every  time  that… 1. Anther  player  stands  on  your  business… (Collect the business profit from the player) 2. You  stand  on  your  business… (Collect the business profit from the bank 3. You  stand  on  “Collect  Profit”  title… (Collect the sum of profits of all your businesses on the board)
  • 23. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Game Instructions 22 Most of the lots have titles above them. If the color title is red the player must follow the action indicated by the title. If the title icon is green the player may choose whether to perform the action ornot. All Icons in the Island are mandatory. These actions are performed as soon as the player lands on the lot with a relevant title. Each card describes a business situation. This situation is relevant for all the players. Example: If the card states that all profits are reduced by 50%, then as long as this card is the active business opportunity all players can only collect 50% of the profits they would have collected (from other player or from the bank) if this card was not active. If the card states that each player in turn may open a new business on any vacant lot, then each player may choose to open a new business if desired. Once a new card is drawn from the pile, it is placed on top of the previously opened card; the previous Business Opportunity is no longer in play and from that point on, the new card displays the current business opportunity. Each time a player lands on a lot titled Business Opportunity, the opportunity may be changed. Another portion of the situation described on the card is the price of the stock market. At the bottom of the each Business Opportunity card you can see the current price for shares on the stock market. Each Action Card describes an action that player can perform and a tip on when it would be best to use that card. Each player may use one card during each player’s  turn,  meaning  each  player  can  use  one  card  in   their  own  turn  and  one  card  during  another  player’s   turn, meaning each player can use one card in their own  turn  and  one  card  during  another  player’s  turn  as   well. When a player chooses to use an action card, he/she should read the card aloud to all the players and immediately takes action accordingly. After the action The Titles Red titles  are  “Mandatory” Green titles  are  “Optional” Business Opportunity Action Cards Each player starts with 5 Action Cards Each player may use 1 Action Cards in each and every turn
  • 24. 23 Game Instructions | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook is performed the card is place back in the main pile of Action Cards at the bottom of the main pile of action cards. The tolls lots are counted as steps among the number of steps allowed by the die. In order to enter the Island, a player must land exactly on the entrance square and must pay $5,000,000. Once a player has entered the Island that player cannot be removed to another location on the board using action cards. A player who is required to pay the bank or another player and does not have the money to do so and is unable to come up with a solution for the situation is declared bankrupted. The player is out of the game and all is his/her businesses are removed from the board. We are going to call each member at your game your team. If you have a question, ask a team member and if collaboratively, as a team cannot find a solution, as a facilitator. All business related activities  between  players  is  both  allowed  and  recommended,  as  long  as  the  game’s   rules are not breached. For example: one player may loan money to another or sell businesses to each other, creating partnerships and so on. Ready to start? Choose one of the players to be the banker. Place the chips by the banker chosen. Each player chooses a character with whom to play the game. The character should be placed on the start lot with the big black arrow (bottom right corner of the board) and each player should take the pile of business cards for their character into hand. The banker deals five Action Cards to each player to start with (once used, the cards are returned to the bottom of the pile). The banker opens the top Business Opportunity card, reads it to all the players (including the Stock Price) and places it face up on the board (below the pile of closed cards) so everyone can see it. Each player roles the numbered die to determine how much money he/she will start with. Each player gets $1,000,000 times the number on the die; i.e, rolling a 3, results in the player starting with $3,000,000. The player with the lowest amount of starting money plays first and the game continues clockwise from that person. The Team All interactions between players are allowed, as  long  as  it  doesn’t  contradict  the  rules  of  the  game (Loans,  Partnerships,  Buy,  Sell,  Agreements,  etc.)…. Let’s  Start! Each player rolls the die & receives 1 Million Dollars X the number on the die from the Banker The  player  with  the  lowest  roll  goes  first…and  then   continues clockwise
  • 25. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Game Timing 24 Game  Timing 30 Minutes into the Game “At  this point, loans will now be available from the bank in increments of $1 Million. If you would like to take a loan of $1 Million you will need to pay a $300,000 security deposit and $100,000 in interest before receiving the loan. When the bank receives this $400,000 you will receive $1 Million in a loan card. To pay your loan back, give the bank $1 Million dollars and the loan card, and you will receive your $300,000  deposit  in  return.    You  cannot  win  the  game  with  any  outstanding  loans  to  the  bank.” Hand out Loan cards to bankers 45 minutes into the Game: Half Way Mark “Everyone  take  a  minute  to  look  at  where  you  stand  right  now.    We  are  exactly  half  way  through  the   game. Remind yourself of your objective and what your plan is for achieving it. What resources do you have?    How  can  you  better  leverage  them?    Think  for  a  moment  about  how  you’ve  played  the  first  half   of the game and take the second half of the game as an opportunity to try new ways of playing. You have  45  minutes  left.    Good  luck!” 60 Minutes  into  the  Game:    “Business  [Initiatives]”  Cards  and  Paid  Coaching “We  are  60  minutes  into  the  game  and  at  this  point  every  player  will  be  receiving  a  red  Business   [Initiative] card. This card is like a Joker or a Wildcard and you can use it whenever you want to take advantage of one of the 4 opportunities listed. So use it to your benefit during the remaining 30 minutes.” “You  will  now  also  have  the  opportunity  to  hire  an  amazing  coach  for  only  $1  Million  dollars.    If  you   choose to hire a coach, they will be available to you until the end of the game for the sole purpose of helping  you  win.” Hand out Business [Initiatives) cards to players Guidelines for Paid Coaching Before starting any coaching, collect your $1 Million! 1. Start with identifying what the  player’s  goal  is.    Make  it  specific  as  possible.    Make  sure  they  get   the difference between their ultimate goal and the steps they need to take to get there. 2. Next ask the player what is missing in order for them to reach their goal. Are they short on cash?    Are  they  too  far  away  from  the  winner’s  circle? Play
  • 26. 25 Group Reflection | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook 3. Now  identify  what  resources  are  available  to  the  player.    Ask  don’t  tell.    Help  them  realize,  if   they  haven’t  already,  that  they  have  MANY  resources  available,  ranging  from  their  own  Action   cards, other players’  action  cards,  business  opportunities,  business  [initiations],  to  money,   businesses,  loans,  stocks,  deals  with  other  players…etc. 4. Help the player in finding creative solutions to his/her challenge using the resources available to them. Ask them questions like: What is your goal? What needs to happen in order to reach your goal? How will you know you have achieved your goals? How will you measure your goal? What is between you and your goal? Money or Movement? What’s  available  to  you?    What’s  available outside of your resources? What is the business initiatives worth to you? What do you have that could help you move closer to the winners circle? Is there anything you could leverage to get more cash? 5. Walk  away  from  the  table!    It’s  the  coach’s  role to show the player how to play smarter an reach their goals, not to DO it for them. Make sure to give them the tools and then let them use them on their own. 90 Minutes into the Game: GAME OVER! “Your  time  is  now  up.    Take  a  look  at  the  board  and  reflect for a minute on where you are and how you got  there.” “Now  take  a  5  minutes  stretch  break  and  meet  back  here  at  ________” Group  Reflection “Think  about  how  you  just  played  that  game.  In   what ways was it the same or different than the way you act in real life? Was the way you felt and acted while playing the game familiar to you? Was there someone at your table who rubbed you the wrong way? How did that affect your game? Are there people like this in your real life? “Work  harder  on  yourself than  you  do  on  your  job” Jim Rohn Share your experience & bring those insights to life
  • 27. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Group Reflection 26 Who would like to share an insight they had about themselves while playing the game? Something you learned  about  how  you  show  up  in  real  life.” [You  can  go  one  by  one  if  it’s  a  small  group  or  pick  a  few  people  if  you  are  short  on  time.    We  want  to   hear  about  people’s  understanding  of themselves, not about the game itself. As a coach, your role is to get the players to have a breakthrough. It is not your job to make sure everyone is happy or comfortable. Change  is  usually  not  comfortable  and  will  require  a  stretch.  Don’t  be  afraid  to push the players toward new ways of thinking and being. Remember this is your workshop and you are in charge. If others disagree- that’s  ok!] Possible questions Include: What was your goal? What did you notice about the way you played? Is that familiar in real life? What will you take from the game into your life? How will your life be different if you acted in that new way? Why is that important to you? If  someone  tries  to  talk  about  the  game,  bring  it  back  to  their  experience.    “Are  you  usually disappointed with opportunities you are given? Is it normal for you to be analytical of learning experiences? What is it that  you  want  in  your  life  that  you  didn’t  get  tonight?”...etc] Now  that  this  game  is  over,  let’s  turn  back  to  how  we  play  the  game  of  “real  life”.    How  different  would   your life be if you were playing without the limiting beliefs you played this game with? I’m  going  to  show  you  a  cartoon  video  that  makes  a  very  important  point. So, are you ready for some more dimensions?! YEH! Ok great – well here we go! Sometimes we view life as two dimensional just like in the game where we see our starting point and the goal and then move forward from point A to point B. While multidimensional thinking uses many different dimensions together in order to achieve better and faster results i.e.; discovering short cuts and quantum leaps From: 2-D thinking To: Multi-Dimensional Thinking
  • 28. 27 Group Reflection | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook We started off with a flat board and general guide lines describing our starting point and goal. Then we started to layer it with more and more rules, options, and opportunities. We call these; dimensions, since each one of these layers opens up an entirely new realm of possibilities to interact with and to use. Some of you looked at the dimensions as rules and restrictions that were confusing or complicated. But those of you who saw the dimensions as possibilities for exponential growth definitely had a more fun and successful game! Let’s  take  a  look  at  the  analogy  between  the  dimensions  of  the  game  and  real  life: [It’s  important  for  the  players  to  realize  that the dimensions are representative and not literal. When we go over the dimensions we want to ask who did not use each particular dimension, and occasionally ask for  some  reasons  why  they  chose  not  to.    The  goal  is  to  uncover  some  of  the  “limiting  beliefs”  that  cause   people  to  miss  out  on  leveraging  opportunities  for  success.    It’s  not  “bad,  good,  right,  or  wrong”  if  they   did  or  didn’t  take  advantage  of  a  dimension,  but  rather  an  area  that  we  want  to  bring  awareness  to  so   that next time they can choose to use it from a place of conscious power and not from an unconscious and inherited limiting belief.] Dice: Action/Movement The die resembles the speed of our progress and the size of our next steps towards our goal and milestones we have set along the way. Sometimes we take a huge step and end up with consequences that  we  either  expected  or  didn’t. How  fast  and  how  often  do  we  take  action?  Often  people  don’t  take  action;  they  don’t  roll  the  die   because of fear... Fear of failure, fear of the unknown, fear of making a mistake, fear of succeeding, etc. But  when  we  don’t  act,  nothing  changes.    So  many  people  get  stuck  on  the  time  they  once  acted  and   failed,  so  they  stop  trying.    Don’t  ever  get  stuck  on  last  turn’s  roll,  just  keep  throwing  the  dice! Coaching: Learning from Others Common  beliefs  about  coaching:  I  don’t  want  help,  I  don’t  need  help,  getting  help  is  “cheating”,  I  didn’t   really win because I had help, and I want to succeed by myself. Are things already good for you? Great! They can still get better through the growth and development that comes through coaching. Examples: Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan has a coach! Multi Dimensional Thinking
  • 29. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Group Reflection 28 Coaching  is  about  using  someone  else’s  point  of  view  as  a  tool.  We  all  have  a  different  point  of  view   which is created and limited by our unique life experiences. The more quality point of views we have access to, the more educated of a decision we can make about things. “I’ve  seen  so  far  because  I  stand  on  the  shoulders  of  giants.”  ~Galileo ”Smart  people  learn  from  their  mistakes,  but  brilliant  people  learn  from  the  mistakes  of  other.” Team: Competition vs. Collaboration We is the new me. We go a lot more in depth about how and why this is true these days, but in short- The new game of business and organization is based on collaboration not competition. Talk about Kickstarter, Wefunder, etc... Life and economics are not zero-sum games. What I achieve does not detract from your achievements, and on the contrary, it probably could only help. Did you notice that the first person to get to the island had  the  opportunity  to  advance  others  to  the  “Pass  to  the  Island”  spot?  We  get  much  further  ahead   working together as a team than as opponents. We were brought up playing games and going to school with the notion that there is one winner and everyone else  loses,  but  life  isn’t  like  that.  We  can  all  achieve  our  goals.  It’s  possible  for  everyone  to  win   in life. There’s  no  second  place  in  life.  Do  you  get  on  the  bus  and  say  “oh  no  - I got on the bus 5th ”!    No  because   your goal is to get where you need to go &  it  doesn’t  matter! If we play our marriage like a competition it will most likely end in divorce. If we play driving like a competition it will most likely end in an accident or death. Looking at life through the lens of collaboration and not competition is more successful, full of more opportunities, and is also WAY more enjoyable. Competition  is  NOT  the  reason  we  fail.  We  fail  if  we  aren’t  creative,  adaptable,  or  flexible  enough  to  be   different from others in our industry (Story of Wallmart founder who’s  idea  and  store  was  taken  from   his landlord) Loans: Buying money Just like a computer or anything else we buy in order to improve our performance and success, sometimes  we  need  to  buy  money.  In  life,  many  of  us  take  loans  all  the  time  but  they’re  disguised in other names, such as mortgage, credit card, car payment, etc... It is only when we actually call a loan a loan that some people get nervous about it. Talk about the distinction between “good  debt”  versus “bad  debt”  just like good fat versus bad fat. A loan for an asset is different from a loan for a liability i.e.: investing in a business vs. buying a television set
  • 30. 29 Group Reflection | FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook Money: The means to an end $  is  not  the  goal,  it  is  just  a  resource.  This  game  just  like  the  game  of  life,  isn’t  about  how  much  money   you have – it is simply a tool to help you achieve your objective. Being able to use our resources to create money is another tool for achieving our goals. Instead of focusing on money, zoom out, and focus more on your objectives and providing value, and then the money will come. Are we focused on accumulating money or creating a cashflow? Stocks:  The  things  we  don’t  understand Many of us look at the stock market like a casino, but to people who know how the stock market works, it is not like a casino at all. People who understand the stock market can use it as a tool to create money with little (& sometimes no) risk. We  tend  to  be  afraid  and  shy  away  from  things  we  don’t  understand.  Think  about  how  different  your  life   would be if you embraced and learned about  those  things  you  don’t  yet  know  or  understand. You are probably just a few YouTube videos away from learning everything you need A lot of our money is actually in the stock market already! Do you have insurance, a pension fund... you’re  already  investing in the stock market. Stocks  in  the  game  represent  the  tools  we  have  access  to  but  don’t  necessarily  understand.  The  more  of   these tools we learn about and gain understanding from, the more resources we will have at our fingertips for achieving our goals. Casino: Risk There is risk in almost EVERYTHING we do in life. Leaving your house in the morning is a risk, buying something, having a baby, asking someone on a date... we play the casino many times every day. How great would it be if some of the risks that we took in our life had 50/50 odds like in this casino? Do you know  what  the  odds  are  of  opening  a  successful  business?  We’ll  get  to  that  soon! Action Cards: What you have to offer In  the  game  some  of  you  hid  the  cards  and  didn’t  even  realize  you  could  work  with  other  peoples’  Action   Cards. Do you have a better chance at reaching your goal with 4 action cards or with 20?! S a m e thing in  life.  Some  of  you  were  even  playing  with  0  action  cards  because  you  didn’t  even  know  what  cards  you   had to leverage! Action Cards in life are the various things you bring to the table. This can be knowledge, skills, talents, strengths, resources, connections, languages...
  • 31. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Group Reflection 30 Do you let other people know about your talents and resources or do you selfishly keep them secret? Are you looking for opportunities to collaborate with people who have complementary Action Cards or are hiding your Action Cards from possible competitors? Homework: make a list of 40 action cards! The more cognizant and aware you are of what you have to offer the more leverage you will have in your life for getting what you want! Business Opportunities: The opportunities available to us at all times We all have many opportunities available to us at all times. Are we aware of them or are we so lost in our own  brain  fog  that  we  don’t  see  them? Reaching your goals is not dependent on what other people give to you, but rather the opportunities you seek out and create for yourself. When you look at everything a s an opportunity to grow and develop, then you will always win-even  if  you  don’t  get  what  you  expected. Businesses: The source of money and energy Starting businesses in the game is parallel to not only starting new businesses in life, but any source of money  and  energy  that  supports  your  goals.  We’re  not  saying you should go out and set up 10 businesses or even 2. What we are talking about is having multiple streams of income. We need money and energy to function in this world and we need to make sure we have those two resources coming in from various places. Why? Some  of  you  didn’t  set  up  many  businesses  in  the  beginning  because  you  were  thinking  that  the  only   way you make money was if someone lands on it. But once you realized that you can collect profits and reap the rewards of the seeds you planted all across the board, you were much more motivated to create businesses. In  the  FreshBiz  casino  you  had  50%  chance  of  winning.  That’s  a  way  better  chance  of  success  than   starting a business in real life, where the statistics are that 90% of businesses fail in the first 3 years. We’re  not  here  to  tell  you  not  to  open  that  new  business,  but  rather  what  you  can  do  to  creatively  be  a   part of the winning 10%. Taking calculated risks “The  more  dimensions  we  master  the  better  results  we   get. Raise your hands if you know, and you know that you know that you will do much better when play FreshBiz again for a second, third, and fourth time? OF COURSE! For them any that go through our FreshBiz curriculum around the world, you cannot even imagine the results that are possible and are waiting for you as you develop your skills and your thinking. Just like many of you know how much better you will do in business and in life as you Multi Dimensional Thinking The more dimensions we master, the better results we get

Take a few moments now to begin writing a list of the different dimensions in your life and business. The more  you  master  those  dimensions,  the  better  you  will  be  at  using  them  individually  &  in  combination.” In the game we role the die and then move accordingly, but could you just imagine how limiting it would be if all our activity came from just the die? That would be like in real life  getting  a  “safe  and  secure”  job  and  then  waiting  and   hoping for the salary raise at the end of each year, and maybe one day a promotion too which is definitely a step forward but not the leap we deserve. There is no book called the  “The  Millionaire  Employee”, Right? So we need to go beyond the die! In Multi Dimensional thinking we are looking for the Quantum Leaps. In the game, we can achieve quantum leaps using Action Cards, Business Opportunities, partners, joint ventures and so on. In real life, start thinking of what dimensions and resources we can put together that will make a huge difference  rather  than  looking  for  the  small  steps  that  move  us  only  one  step  at  a  time.” Take  30  seconds  to  share  a  Quantum  Leap  that  you’ve  achieved  in  your  life  from  playing  FreshBiz When you arrived today, you were all individuals coming to an event. Now that  you’ve  experienced  Entrepreneurial   thinking  and  FreshBiz,  you’ve  moved  into  making  quantum   leaps in order to move forward. Welcome to the FreshBiz community! Take a look again at the different dimensions of the game. How many of you saw an opportunity but did not use it? How did you feel when you realized you missed an opportunity? From: linear progress To: quantum leaps From: one or the other To: all together Starting a business Business opportunity Coaching Business initiative Action Card Deals Processes
  • 33. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Group Reflection 32 When you started, you might not have realized all the opportunities available to you. But now you are aware of them and will see them everywhere. It will be up to you to take advantage of them. How can you apply this to your life? I invite you to think about how you can benefit from endless opportunities? “How  many  options  do  you  think  you  had  when   you began the game? A handful? More than 10? If you wanted to build a successful business in the field that interests you - How many options do you think you could come up with to help you succeed? “Whatever  the  number,  it  is  still  very  limiting.” The truth is, there are... “more  than  10,000  options  and  combinations of options in the game even on the very first turn. When you take into account all the people we can interact with, and all the many opportunities for leverage and consulting we actually have endless options to choose from but still we might find it challenging to come up with more than 10 and any given time. Victor Frankel a holocaust survivor and psychologist who developed the treatment “All  possibilities  exist  simultaneously, It’s  our  point  of  view  that  determines which  one  we  will  experience.” - What the Bleep Do We Know From: few options To: endless opportunities Options & Opportunities Options & Opportunities Around 4-6 options Options & Opportunities Around 4-6 options More  than  10,000  options….

  • 35. FreshBiz Facilitator Handbook | Game Changers 34 Game  Changers Games Changers is a full day event. You begin the same with the Win to the Winth Power workshop then break for lunch. After lunch you will play the game again for 60 minutes with goals and skills the host wants to emphasize. Loan, business initiatives and coaching is available from the beginning. Enlarging the Pie – to Foster Collaboration Goal  to  reach  the  winner’s  lot  with  4  times  what  you  started.     To Foster Creativity Goal: to get to the winners lot with $4,000,000. Every time they cross a toll, they need to give up all their money to the bank except for $500,000. Rule, money cannot be given away to another player. To Foster Risk/Movement Use both dice. Green moves forward, red moves backwards. Once you land on the island lot, if you go backwards, then you do not need to land on the island lot again to move into the island. To Foster Collaboration – Money with Talent Roll 6 = $6,000,000 + No Action Cards Roll 1 = $1,000,000 + 5 Action Cards, etc. The idea is to foster collaborate between the money holders and talent. To Promote Different Ways of Thinking 1. Only use Action Cards on your own turn 2. Use all your Action Cards before reaching the business center.
