Summary

Learning and exercising one’s rights through a series of workshops. The process consists of several key steps: First, participants will learn to know and state their rights definitively. Second, they will learn to recognize when someone makes an offer that requires giving up certain rights, even if it’s disguised as a mandate or summons. Third, participants will learn how to conditionally accept these offers rather than disputing or outright accepting them. The speaker emphasizes that these contracts are always made with individuals, not corporations. Fourth, participants will learn how to obtain a remedy, which may involve the other party complying with the desired outcome or entering into negotiations. If necessary, participants will learn how to enforce the performance of the contract, primarily through using a commercial lien process, though litigation may sometimes be necessary. The speaker stresses that this is a life skill that may require multiple iterations and experiences to master.

Understanding and Stating Your Rights

The speaker introduces the first step of the process: learning and knowing all of one’s rights. Participants will be able to definitively state what is and isn’t a right.

00:00:19 Recognizing Offers to Give Up Rights

The speaker explains that participants will learn to recognize when someone makes an offer that requires giving up certain rights, even if it’s disguised as a mandate or summons. These are all described as ‘offers in commerce’.

00:00:52 Conditional Acceptance of Offers

The speaker outlines the process of conditionally accepting offers rather than disputing or outright accepting them. This involves setting conditions and entering into a contract with the individuals who made the offer.

00:01:31 Contracting with Individuals, Not Corporations

The speaker emphasizes that contracts are always made with individuals, not corporations, even when dealing with companies or banks. This is described as a crucial point to understand.

00:01:59 Obtaining Remedies and Enforcing Contracts

The speaker discusses how to obtain remedies after conditionally accepting an offer. This may involve the other party complying with the desired outcome or entering negotiations. If necessary, participants will learn to enforce the performance of the contract.

00:02:37 Methods of Contract Enforcement

The speaker primarily teaches using a commercial lien process for enforcing contracts, but acknowledges that litigation may sometimes be necessary. Participants are advised to be prepared for either scenario.
