Known on social media as Jean Chevalier, the young entrepreneur with an estimated fortune of over 100 million euros successfully runs more than ten companies at once.
These include his own energy drink and the world’s most successful influencer agency “Viral Influencers.”
If you can successfully run a company, why not a relationship?
In an interview with Mary Ali Magazine, the self-made millionaire reveals which mindset leads to success.
What do you tell people who keep ending up with the wrong partner?
“Well, that’s like in the cinema. In an action movie there is a completely different audience, namely many men, than in a love movie. Many couples. In a horror movie there are many adults and in a children’s movie there are many families.
We are all one film. How we dress, how we behave, how we talk.
Logically, we attract the same audience over and over and over again, as long as the film is the same.
If we don’t like our audience we have to change the film. In this case, ourselves.”
What if my negative mindset is based on negative experiences?
I have to decide if these people were worth still having an influence on my life. Whether I give them this power to be able to decide about my behavior still today or whether they have made me rich in experience and therefore I recognize wrong people at an early stage from now on.
What mindset plays a role in sucessfully getting to know each other?
We go into a get-to-know-you meeting with a negative mindset. We are skeptical whether the other person is honest with us. Pessimistic whether he is playing games.
This negativity takes the joy out of the enthusiasm of getting to know each other and destroys the relationship.
When it fails we say, see I had every right to be negative.
But the truth is that through this negative behavior we have caused this result ourselves.
How can I negotiate successfully with my partner when we disagree?
First of all, it is important to get on eye level. If someone has a demand, you should make a counter demand. So that we don’t just talk about his conditions and are thus in the weaker position. But about both.
It is important to remain calm during this process. Even if I am in the right. An argument on the matter is weakened rather than strengthened in this way. If I get upset, my counterpart will successfully turn the conversation away from the original question, in which he was wrong, to talk only about my behavior, in which I am wrong.
What position should the partner take in a relationship?
The partner is even ahead of your parents or children.
You live with your parents in the same house for 25 years. The same applies to his children. With the partner if everything goes well more than 50. He will be there while the parents are still alive and after they unfortunately die sometime. Before the children are born and after you move out of the house.
One will share all his secrets with him. You don’t do that with the parents or with the children.
As hard as it sounds, could you choose your parents or children? No. But out of 8 billion people on the planet, you could choose your partner. This shows how much importance this choice has.
