side you're here I love you me too and we're so different so it's like yeah I appreciate it man I appreciate it you're really good at acknowledging people too I was watching we had dinner last night what we had like a little hang last night at your hotel and I was watching you communicate with the people around you about how you were acknowledging them and I see that with like Ed milette he's really good at finding like the uniqueness and the gift in the town that someone has and acknowledging them early in a conversation and I don't know if that's innate I think I do that as well I'm always finding the good at someone and acknowledging it and I think that's what makes you so nice restaurant the guy expensive restaurant yeah the guy with is a you know loaded person yeah and in this town very important it wasn't my dinner I didn't call the dinner so I know it's the good at people but I was acknowledged hey this is this is not accepted yeah we were just talking about how you're not likeable because you'd say that say the truth and you say what's on your mind and you're not filtered and every time every time I do an interview with you I have a lot of people that are like super grateful because of what they learn and you're gonna learn a lot of here in a second and then I get a few people that are just like cannot get over the fact that I'm friends with you they hate me for it they unsubscribe they follow and then they like will attack me for days or weeks holding on to something because of something you said or something you do or the energy you have how you're so honest yeah you say certain things that maybe aren't politically correct yeah and I say to people like listen I don't have someone on because I agree with a hundred percent of their life right right but there's a lot of things that I agree with or I think that could be helpful for you and I try to find the best of everyone yeah yeah and bring that information and you have built an incredible Empire yeah thank you with your name with Cardone capital with everything you do and the last time we're on we were just looking it up because I think June June 2017 which felt like it was like a year ago here was almost two years ago and you told me I think at the time that you were doing trying to do like 90 million or a hundred we were doing a deal I think if I remember right I was doing a deal in Houston Texas it was 90 million bucks or somewhere about that and you're like why so low or something then you were like yeah if we do a hundred million this year and deals oh yeah that's gonna be great yeah why not nine hundred nine and that dude let me tell you I left here I mean you gave me a great gift so for all the people that hated that interview or I said something that bothered you I know Lewis didn't say anything that bothered you but you know that that that mean I left with I mean the one thing I'll pat myself on the back for it's like I get one piece of data from anything I'll get more out of one piece of data than anybody I know yeah just give me one piece I'm not looking for the whole book like when I read a book if I grab this book when I open the book you know I'm like okay I make a decision every time I go read it what can I find today in this now what do I agree with I used to highlight everything and I realized you know all I'm doing this highlight you should I agree with and now I go in and say I'm looking for something I done no they can improve my life and so out of that interview even the interviews I do what can I get like coming over what I wonder what I'm gonna get today that that what am I gonna get from Louis that's what I'm greedy dude I know and that's all thinking of last night I was like I'm gonna get something out of Grantham take him from the last interview which was a hundred million dollar goal to nine hundred million dollars a year 2017 yeah I was like why don't you get nine hundred million this year in 2017 we close for I think four hundred million dollars when the deals last year it's amazing I have 300 million in the hopper right now it's amazing a guy just called me on the way over he's like okay you're at 88 there was three guys in the deal one dropped out do you have any room and it's a freaking brand new deal unbelievable beautiful I think I'll be still and it'll be a little little painful for six months or so but these are the deal sighs the deal sighs dude changed so much because of that air and you were thinking like yeah if I can get 90 million this year or whatever was I was thinking about like three thirty million dollar games and I know everybody sing oh my god that's so big because I remember when my first deal was 78 thousand dollars mm-hmm I did not know how to come up with real estate yeah yeah yeah I didn't know how to come up with the down payment I remember doing seminars when I was 29 years old and I wouldn't I wouldn't rent a lavalier mic because is 80 bucks you were just scream we're giving I would talk to my 300 people for eight hours there was no microphone I didn't rent the hand hill and I didn't rent this one because it was 80 bucks and I was scared the 80 bucks I didn't have any money dude so anytime like I'm like oh I'll save 80 bucks that'll be two days that's $160 I'm gonna do you know fifty of these this year that's $9,000 and and you can hear my voice today like my twin brother's voice and my voice mine is definitely like yeah sure yeah definitely and actually have some physical problems because I was having a frickin use it too much effort Wow yeah I was 29 years old man I wouldn't spend the money I was terrified yeah so I remem the money now oh yeah yeah now we spend no I mean now the stupidity is kind of like okay what was I thinking invest in your health alone yeah I mean like that like that's done I don't have an idiot nobody's got an $80 problem they got eighty million dollar problem yeah that's how I approach everything now so you went from a couple year year-and-a-half ago two years ago thinking these deal sizes were so big at the time but now my normos these are like now we do this every week type of thing dude I'd like now we're doing I'm doing three deals that are 300 million yeah when it was 30 million you were like if we can get three that's ten any deals right right all here it'll be huge yeah and now it's three hundred million you know since I left here let me see how many months is that that 220 months so I'm like that we raised 200 million using Facebook and Instagram Wow without spending a penny on ads two hundred million dollars from accredited and non-accredited after I left here we didn't have the funds I wasn't raising money we started looking at how can we grow faster I mean literally do it I walked out of here just ant asking myself this question over and over it's a good question if you can ask good questions right like hey what could I do to grow faster and I kept going on what could I do to grow faster you know without without without wrecking the car you know without damaging something without without taking risk unnecessarily what can I do to grow faster and not violate my formula this that's never let me down and then I'm like oh wow we could raise money me and Ron we're talking we could raise money you know my wife's involved in those conversations we can raise money we could raise money from accredited first so first thing we did was create a fund for accredited investors make 200 grand a year and then I'm like you know we we need I need to do this for the other people the little people the liz's and the Larry's and and people that don't have a million dollars yet because people are starting to hit me on social media said I'm gonna get in yeah yeah yeah you can't just help wealthy people and they're right because mom my family was not not wealthy and then one day I looked at okay my brother can invest it with me but my to know my sisters can't none of my cousins can none of my nephews can none of my nieces can my mother couldn't invest with so I can't help any of my family members like what am i doing this is a contradiction to Who I am so we spent the money to create a fun for everybody Wow yeah and so you guys did that well we're changing your mind because you were doing big deals already you know in the last you were making millions you had a thriving business you had tons of employees like things were growing already in 2015 and 2017 yeah speaking on stages with huge you know huge audience is what's switching your mind to go from 30 million to 300 million our deals and what do you think is needed for someone making thirty thousand together to a hundred thousand or a hundred thousand to a million so you know switch like the switches if you try to go from thirty I'll just talk about myself right like when I was trying to go from thirty and I remember when I was making thirty grand when I tried to go from thirty to a hundred I just ended up with all the same problems you know it's like okay I'm making thirty let's say I'm making pies I'm making pies and I'm making thirty pies it's the same thing by the way same restrictions a physical universe I don't have enough time I don't have enough dough I don't have enough ovens so the guys like I'm gonna go from 30 to 100 well you can't do that in the space you're in so you need a bigger space but you don't have the money for a bigger space so the trick is to create a plan around going from 30 to 300 not a hundred because the people are trying to edge into them I'm gonna go from thirty to forty forty to fifty fifty to sixty but what they should do is put a plan to go from 30 to 300 because immediately you'll be like I can't do it in my kitchen anymore I need more ovens I need more money I need help immediately it unlocks you from this budget this this mentality that trap me so long from worrying about $80 for a lavalier mic I'm literally dude like like I was so terrified I damaged my throat am i and a my lower intestines okay because I didn't understand dude eighty dollars in your problem I was that scared all the time like a lot of people see me as a super confident guy but I've just been scared what are you scared of the most dude I'm scared I was scared of like okay I got something now I don't know what to do with it I figured out how to get it I didn't know what to do with it I didn't know I didn't know where should go so what did you get you mean you got the money what I got the money or I got some recognition or or I got I finally got a little audience or I got one industry to know me and you don't know what to do with it how do I keep it okay III I don't think you keep it I think you need to multiply it oh how do you multiply it you multiply it by being taking the risk to go to other industries because you started in a car and you know something teaching yeah yeah well everything before that I started stuff that I just lost that right like so and again I wasn't thinking big enough when I was in McDonald's and I got fired from McDonald's flipping burgers are true the fries or what we doing whatever they had me did they had me they had me do what you know there this is what we do right it's a row it's a factory and I was 16 years old and and my dad had been dead six years so like you know like I'm uncertain 1560 I've just had sex for the first time everything is so complicated making five bucks an hour that's why whatever was no it's probably like 280 Wow yeah but that wasn't a dude that wasn't the problem I was grateful for the 280 but I was awkward I was not confident I didn't know how to talk to people yeah yeah I hated the job but if somebody wanted to go learn this game so you can own 50 McDonald restaurants mm-hmm like if I would have had that that idea I'll bet you I would own a bunch of McDonald franchises today but I went there just for the 280 yeah no not for hey I want to do something I think I truly think that the thing that I've suffered from the most in my life is I look at Kobe and you know all these pictures these great people you know dude I just thought too small I was worried about the 80 bucks and I was worried about what the car dealers thought about me that audience and how do you when did you start to think bigger and how did that make you feel when you started to see like a bigger vision for your life well I seen these other guys I see these other people doing things I'm obviously a model of someone doing like I said I was with Mike the other day right and you know when you when you watch the old tapes of Mike knocking somebody I don't care if you're like boxing or not you watched aren't like him in his prime at 19 years old there was a machine people would be like wow you know the warrant on catch you know the great catch like the greatness has always pulled at my freaking inside so hard like like literally I'll cry at somebody doing something great because I know it's like dude that's you hmm I can't catch a ball and I can't knock anybody out but I know there's something in me that this destined to do something how do you know that's something is in you because I can hear it dude I can feel it I see it recognize it it recognizes it notices in other people right so how could I see that in you know Kobe or Michael or the singer then nobody knows but this is not about celebrity because I'm not a starstruck guy I am struck by moments the comedian watching the comedian his timings just like perfect dude he's get the deal they're like I get so moved how could I recognize that if it's not in me mmm you know the same thing for like criticism of other people like when I see something I don't like in somebody I I know immediately there's no way for me to see that in him if it's if if I'm not that's not in me yeah the water on the table last night like not be in there like how many times have I ignored somebody not serviced them properly right you know business yeah yeah in business or maybe somebody right now that I'm ignoring I'm not paying enough attention to or so you know that that's been thing dude just that [ __ ] I want to be great man yeah and you know and I know that I know there's people that are like oh that's cuz he doesn't love himself you know that that's the go-to thing me and Tyson we're talking about this you don't love yourself why why do I need to be great now that's the to go to formulas well do you don't need to be great you should just love yourself the way you are hmm you know and this is what Tyson was saying yesterday the ego grant do you know do you know I said do the ego save my life how so all this other stuff undoing mmm you know trying to try not to be great like hurt me a lot try not to do big things was damaging to me how was it damn you because because dude it put me in conflict I wasn't like playing smaller yeah yeah man I like how can you you know I showed up in that big truck right it's noisy man you could punch a button it gets no easier and that's what it was built for it what it wasn't built to not be loud mm-hmm and I don't think I was built to be loud or to be small I was built III don't think I was built to be quiet like like they tell you when you're growing up you know be quiet be seeing not heard or be be heard whatever they do is you know don't touch own horn don't get too much attention and don't promote yourself and but look man God was a showoff' man look what he created just did stop he's not quiet no ok rainbows you know Suns planets like waterfalls everything you're crazy man like like when we walk around nature and we look at all that when I see this whatever this is growing on your wall that fungus that's fate it looks real dude you gotta get a shot of that you know like wow man that's living yeah right at least in my imagination of course so why do you think people you know uh I think we love people that are grateful and have humility but we also love to see people do great things yeah is there a balance that they should have like also be grateful and humble as opposed to kind of like the McGregor dude I love McGregor yeah see I like that that's your that's your energy you like you're on that frequency I you know who doesn't like it look at how big the audience is you know look at the rock you don't have a little moss right but his he's got more humility let's say a jerk oh he knows how that he knows how to play that game oh my god I mean there's nobody better than a rock at that Obama was unbelievable with that yeah it staying connected that's what I'm terrible at I'm [ __ ] awful at I am so bad at it why I don't know why I don't know why I just know I'm bad at it like seem like it's affected your business success oh I'm sure it has you know I'm sure it has you know if it slows if it slows people down from liking me like you people like my wife tells me Elena tells me this all the time dude like she's like the reason women don't like you grant is because you know you sound like you don't filter anything right and you sound like she and she's like she knows like the the favorite people in my life were women my mother look my mother I would have done anything for mm-hmm and she's my best friend yeah and a dependent on her and and later and later I was with my mother when she died I was the one she trusted more than I hope my family doesn't see this but my mother trusted me did not trust me the most when I was growing up and when she was dying knew that no matter what I would do something I would be there for her like and I were told the truth always telling the truth I'm the one that when my mom I got a call after Sabrina we had just had our first kid right up the block here and then my sister dhania Costas said you need to get here now that Sabrina's born and so I got on a plane flew to this is nine years ago fluid up flew to Lake Charles and I walked in my mom's in hospital I'm like had they told you what's going on no what do you mean grant I said has anybody told you what's happening now and she's like no I said well what do you think's happening and I was the first one that had the conversation and had her got her to say well I'm I died and I'm like that's right that's what's happening now Wow and it dude it was oh it was a hardest conversation I've ever had with in body my life and it was like okay dude you're gonna die this is what's happening my sisters didn't have the conversation with her my Brotherhood didn't have the conversation with her and I said okay that's what's happening we got I don't know 12 hours 18 Wow 20 hours huh that's it huh yeah and I'm trying to take time out of this thing I'm like I don't want it dragging on because I know she doesn't want it to drag on she's always told me she's like hey look when we get to this place don't let this thing drag out I would want it to drag out right was she in a hane or was it no not really you know and I said look how do you want to die cuz you're gonna die that's what's happening yeah I know god damn it grant I know I'm like good you know she's like I know I know an image boom she got it now now not sunk in nobody was playing the denial game anymore I'm [ __ ] just like this is my best friend dude and so I'm like how do you want to die Wow what do you mean so so I said you wanted to stay here you want to you know cuz she was that kind of woman right she's like I don't want to stay in this hospital good where do you want to go I want to be in my house all right good do you want me to get a car to pick you up you wanna you wanna drive home you want me to drive you now just give me a my car and drive me home and then we got to the house I just walked her through all the pieces where do you want to be let me sit let me sit in the living room doing it was spoken so hard how like even today right now saying it was her body just falling apart or result oh yeah answer oh the intense internal it's just yes cancer yeah and so the internal organs are shutting down now and within 10 hours let me see from the time I had the conversation with her the next morning got her in the Honda drove her home put her in the living room for you know a couple hours let her sit her a nice boy I say okay what do you want to finish this she's like in my bed to go to the bedroom and uh you know just my lovin o'clock tonight finally yeah she said but thirty minutes before she finished she's like she's like I'm scared again Wow I said what are you scared of you know you gotta hold it together right because and she says I'm scared I can't die she wasn't scared I've died she was scared she couldn't clean up and uh I said dude you can do this you know you've done everything you needed to do you did a great job you know anybody anything just rock on man and uh thank you well she was afraid that she couldn't die like she would drag on or yeah I'm just kind of be I see what you're scared of dying yeah she was scared she couldn't Wow so uh you were there was your home in there really that did I wish I had my handler no doctors in the room while she was passed yeah yeah so she's my button man yeah I was uh I don't know what was the greatest lesson she taught you man she was just a lot less she was a very negative person like I have a lot of that like the second run second he says you know grant you're a positive person I said dude I am NOT a positive person like do not no one should confuse me with a motivational good I'm not I'm not a positive person why aren't you because because because I I understand that people die yeah like I understand that life is hard and that there's evil I know there's evil I confront like that's what people don't like about me dude like you know who says okay you're gonna die it's hard man it's really hard to be that honest yeah my dad died when I was 10 my older brother died when I was 20 so by the time I was 20 I'm like oh people die then you start getting used to it like like I know I'm just your grandparent or something no no I see I know I know there's people I know today they've never had a death in their family net they've never experienced it yeah and then they're shocked when their dad dies I'm like what would you think was gonna happen over there dog dies I'm like gosh you got a dog it's a great day it's got a life of 11 years yeah hopefully it dies before you do you know so my kids already know like my seven and nine year old there they already confront the issue of me as a body not being around one day yeah so my mom taught me a lot man she taught me you know she talked tried to talk me out of most everything I ever did because she was negative she she was a mother and it's a mother a letter protect you my mother's 15 percent negative has to be right you know oh you're gonna get a cold put your shoes on don't go out in the rain you know so but I had to learn how to I had to learn how not to listen to that 50 Wow was there anything that she taught you in the end or any regrets from you you know what you had done or what you hadn't done our promise you made yourself after she passed me like you know what I haven't been doing what I really need to be doing here here here is there anything like that for you mmm you know mom no not not with her you know I mean I told her out when I was a kid when I got clean from drugs someone down by your jag where I never bought it for she told me one day she was a funny lady she said simple player had bought and bought their mom a house yeah and I was wealthy at the time I you know I was living a lawyer down the Selphy here and I'd you know I was still single she's like so-and-so bought her mom a house you know where's my car I'm like he'll end up broke too you ain't get now right she did one house I mean she didn't want any of that stuff yeah what did she want she didn't have a lot of she didn't have a lot of dreams you know III don't think she lived way below her potential yeah and that's why I understand women you know my mom was a she she was a 50s housewife mm-hmm and my mother lived for her children yeah and so part of this I think is part of my hardness and the way I prioritize things I know my mother made a mistake putting her kids first Wow that was a mistake for Wow what should she have done she should have put herself first no that's first why because she she was more worried about five people five little kids than her own dreams and and I just when I watched my dad died left her to run everything he died suddenly and she never dated again Wow she was 40 the see I was I guess she's 38 never went under date Wow she had a stepfather and she's like her stepmother and she's like I'm not I'm not but give him my kids a stepmother everything now was about the kids and it's just it's not enough for a human being do you can't be happy just living for kids that are gonna move out you know so what advice would you have to women about following their dreams do you you you people all people men and women they should be more greedy about their personal dreams what I think mine was five kids and I've got this responsibility and yeah you do but you also have responsibility yourself like how can i if I can't take care of me how can I take care of somebody else yeah this has always been my battle cry like I have to take care of me you know and and how can I help anyone I'm [ __ ] broken I messed up you know I'm coming out of a treatment center for drug addiction I didn't need to help anybody else I needed to get I need to get on solid ground you know I needed to make sure I wasn't going back to treatment and then I needed to clean up the mess that I mean I needed to do this for me because and that has been my contention now for many years like just keep slowly taking care of your neighborhood until you're in another zip code yeah is there anywhere in your life right now that is still broken or still a mess that you need to take care of first you know I let him go I'm like okay I was having this conversation with Jamie yesterday and I said dude I don't do that cuz he's got this person he's like how she's got so much potential and I'm like yeah I don't do that deal I don't handle people with potential I handle people that want to change yeah so I would rather somebody that wants to say hey what do I do I'll do it then somebody's got a bunch of potential and won't do it right what you tell them but your own your own personal life you feel like there's anything that's broken inside of you still that you need to work on every day yeah like you've come I'm not I'm not working on the broken stuff I mean of me you know but because I have great thankfully you know I've repaired a lot of stuff and and and I'm not dealing with I mean I got a lot of help along the way so yeah some of that all that broken stuff in the doubt and and they're not sureness even though there's still me playing small is all doubts right you know what do you doubt right now well I'm just saying like like it like it's the last time I left I'm like okay we're gonna build a billion-dollar business weird a billion - now you're like all right I'm going to ten why did you ever hear yeah why aren't you now now I'm starting to question goddamn maybe I just go to 20 like like because now all the sudden you're 30 you're 30 maybe because now the game gets so big that I can truly make a difference we're talking about Hospital difference countries like you can make a difference when you start getting you start hanging out with billions of dollars of control you can make it a poverty in a location you can it you can make and you can start influencing the people that have the resources to do the influency so what's the mindset that's gonna take you from 1.2 billion now to 10 billion by the end of this year and then 30 billion by the end of next year well that that's not physically I can't move that fast right that would be that would be there does need to be increments yeah there does because well because it's playing small on me no it's it's because because there has to be foundations right there has to be can't just leap frog that far without doing the work without laying around yeah and I'm in a physical universe right I would I could do it if I didn't have a body right but but the body the body the other people's bodies their thoughts their ideas I'm dealing with a lot of other people they have times and they go home and you know it's six o'clock or you know they're you know I'm dealing with other institutions that go a lot slower because they're getting conservative now they don't want to lose you know so time time unfortunately is that from 1 to 10 wasn't yeah well 10 billion by the end of what so so we I think what's real I think what's real I was real well that could be a 2 billion into 2020 for sure I can open January 2020 small that just sounds like you're ready at one point - it just sounds tiny compared to what Grant Cardone was capable of no it sounds like these are enormous dude this sounds I need to billion dollar sounds it sounds tiny ever this level for you I drove a Camry till I was 35 years old but you're 61 have you been leapfrogging for years now yeah it seems like it just seems small Wow I mean not small let's be huge for me but where you're at I think we could be a 10 million five years though that's very car John and I think of the but but you understand how much money you're talking about now you're talking about blacks just enough black stone there's 12 billion dollars obsessive people have money you just get ready people to open their wallet yeah here it is you just need to find the people with the money I need a bigger team I know no I don't even fun there re there you know the people would have money the world the whole world has money okay so you need a bigger team which I need a bigger team how big of a team you need I probably need my team probably needs to be you know a hundred plus what do you like 50 right now or 30 well we got a it depends on what but I know if you're just talking about the real estate right but I did I got 13 other deals that they don't run and so this sounds smaller Thank You Man but you know thank you so much it does thank you you you're Grant Cardone you're not someone who says all right I think I could get to 10 do it by 2024 yeah well maybe if I could do a podcast so you did a bigger team so you've got a higher fat it takes time it takes it yeah you know like I love how he gets fidgety of the seat he's like oh you know you know it's like Mike Tyson I was with Tyson you know and he's like what so what do you what do you want to do you know in his voice what do you want to do I want to meet 7 million 7 billion people and immediately we should get you some of this tape is freaking fascinating he's like how many of you met so far am I not enough man but you're gonna help me Mike right you know because he knows a lot of people yeah and a lot of people know him yeah so you know part of it is just getting the word out to like no nobody knows I exist small amount of people who are you saying yeah so tiny do millions not billions yeah nobody knows me and even the people that know me don't they're not thinking about me right now so how do you become more known in the last next year or two years you know doing you know doing things like what I'm doing right now you know getting getting on the on your podcast getting known getting collaborating working with other people like you have on this wall that that are influencers and and you know that you know that one uh that wanna work together yeah I'm curious what do you think your superpower is and that that you're one of the best in the world uh yeah and what how does someone find out what their superpowers if they're like I have no clue I think your superpowers like my superpower is probably what do you think mine is I'm gonna write mine down what I what I think it is okay but I want to hear what you think mine is and I'd love to hear what what the people think like everybody's got one body at least one maybe many I know I have one think of what you would write down I think what you would write down is your belief system is your superpower it's like the way you think your mindset it's like 10x mindset this belief system of what's possible what that's what I think you would write down well I what I what I was thinking before that was your ability to enroll people in your vision oh wow well your ability to just be relentless about your vision and speak it into the world one to one one to many and say buy into this buying tonight buying to my books the end of my events buying in my car don't capital buy now buy into the vision yes so those two things there's one the internal belief system of like okay what could I do to 10x and not allowing the fear to keep you playing small except for I feel like you might be a little right now yeah yeah yeah yeah what did you what did you write down no I wrote I wrote I wrote you see I want you to see it man was a clever persistence persistence yeah yeah relentless yeah I mean it's something dude once once I decided I'm gonna do something it's like there's no letting the the chances me letting go is something that's important to me a friend like I am either the best or worst friend a person asked why so because because it like you if if you and I are in a club and something goes down I will be there swinging it out okay I have no chance of winning the fight I can only be a distraction to do thing throw the bottle but you're not gonna see me just run Yeah right so so and I'm not gonna run from my dreams like I'm not gonna run from my kids I'm not gonna run from Elena I'm not gonna there's nothing Elena could do to cause me to like run away from her really know if she treats you horrible every day screams at you tries to pull you back from your dreams threatens to take your kids from you yeah threatens to ruin you in some way I mean none of that will happen right but but but something else you're saying yeah but she could cheat on me yeah I don't think did that would cause me to run away I'd figure out because yeah totally I remember you saying yeah why would it be your fault of your wife cheats on you what because what would allow her to get interested in something else you know I wasn't paying attention to her you know there's something was out I had to know it you know like nobody's ever betrayed me that I didn't that that I didn't know beforehand they were gonna betray me there's always a son it's not an intuition either people are like oh I know you know I had this feeling it's not intuition you saw something happen there was something you saw happened there was some mind you little movement energy something they liked like probably a physical thing like if you could just go back and look at what did the person do the sign or say or do to somebody or not do maybe they didn't do something that was you know that was consistent with what what just happened and you you took that piece of data and filed it and then you disregarded it I've always know everything I've ever been with somebody that late got over on me I'm like you know I did that she was gonna happen mm-hmm I don't know why I'm surprised I'm not surprised yeah I didn't I didn't acknowledge it pay attention all right how the conversation I need to sit down and talk to him about it right and so I think you know me one one thing this persistence to is definitely I understand that extremely well I understand numbers numbers have always been friendly to me and particularly multiple multiplication and division that's a superpower I really yeah what do you mean by numbers how it's a super powerful why is I just understand them they're very like like I literally like I did a two-day seminar after the 10x rode conference we did three days and then I did two more days right behind that on real estate to about a hundred people for eight hours for 16 hours total I was living in this what what was like a the matrix to me a formulas like literally like I wasn't in my body for 16 hours Wow for two days I was not in my body I was took completely exteriorized and because I was in this topic that I understand so well and it's formulas and values and money and why something works and like like it was all like algebra it was like like all these numbers written on the wall behind me and a chalkboard and I was living in them and so it's again I mean I don't know where it comes from or why I have it or whatever but I know that's a superpower and the other one is the ability to know when something's right and say yeah we're gonna do that or know like really fast decisions how do people why are people so slow on making decisions in life business relationships because I don't they commit on something because I think they they this is that conversation about why you guys need to go talk to each other about we're gonna buy the car I'm not gonna get a training session should I buy that Louis's got a 300 on the program I got the woman has to go talk to her husband to buy a 300 dollar program that's personal yeah or the guys got to talk to her cuz you guys don't trust each other mm-hmm but mostly you don't trust yourself Wow there's no way I'm gonna talk to Elena I'm not gonna stop ladies and call Elena and say baby I bought it hundred and forty I did one hundred forty million dollar deal what do you think now I got a buddy him and his wife talk about every real estate transaction they did he doesn't get me he's like anyone he doesn't get the deals oh really they're too busy talking about the real estate deal some of us made the deal I'm buying it Wow I don't call Elena Elena I tell Elena we bought it she's like great man let's go do another one she's just Ross she celebrates she trusts me dude she trusts the plan she understands I'm a genius on this what she she this is your superpower this is my second question the superpower dude exactly man Batman does not consult Superman mm right he's like go get it bro right like flour there Joe said he can't fly Batman can't fly right like eating Jay so so it's it's my superpower Elena has her superpowers and their autism consol you on she never consults me on it never talk I don't even know what she's doing I can't even I don't even understand what it is she's bouncing on a ball and she she does this she's gonna hate that I said this okay but but I'm convinced that her bouncing on the ball is why she stays in such good shape and she is thinking her world is very ethereal it's almost like she doesn't live in the physical universe and she she is a she is a what would that be called in Hollywood they have a name for it the muse she-she's - the muse she's the the magician yeah you know she lives in a world of like I don't even know she's doing it like it's all magic dude right you know it's it's it's some kind of like postulations [Music] imagination and and and it's not about her it's about us it's enough it's about it's about something bigger it's about people we're gonna meet places we're gonna go Elena has provided me come up with so many brilliant ideas that I would have never thought because I'm an effort right my superpower is persistence and pushing and that relentless hers is not any of them it's brainstorming it's it's she's like oh he doesn't he's exhausted at five hours of an event Oh grant why don't you just do four hours keep the price to say and get they never never thought about I never thought oh I'm gonna cut it from eight hours to four hours and and then what happened was I went out to the it was a product that we had that I used to deliver and I said guys we're gonna do it for our event twice the people showed up and we didn't have to reduce the price Wow and that was Elena because I would never thought of it yeah how did you know here's two questions one where do you think you'd be without being married to the right partners yeah currently because they're 61 is early yeah where would you be would you be building as big of a business empire without having the right married partner in your life could you do it single well one thing I've been miserable you know because I remember being single and I wasn't happy yeah I was I mean I was with somebody all the time but you weren't happy I always had somebody and and but but I was miserable did because I didn't have the right person and you know how did you know it was the right person for you though well I thought it was just because the way she's mocked up you know it's just her physical unit was like okay that's that's my deal and then the way she kind of liked her her attitude was fit for me her confidence and ability you know I liked I liked all that but you know where would I be I mean did I don't think I'd be doing what I'm doing I think I think I think 50% I mean unless we get a divorce and I got to go to the whole you know she wants 50% which by the way I would tell her hey dude you can't take 50 of this this is ridiculous but she has definitely contributed to a this expansion right right that cuz I never I never imagined that would be where I am today really oh no what did you imagine I'm gonna be that couple million bucks a year yeah I didn't have money never never thought like at this level ever so you think your wife I bought a street up this I bought a house up the street I guess 15 years ago hey me rap yeah I was worried I couldn't pay for him Wow oh yeah you know the jet I'd the jet won mine dude that was Elena's idea we paid for that the first jet in the first year I never never dreamed how long I would marry about 15 years 15 years so it's Elena but it's also us having a commitment to self-improvement it was like that's the other thing that we did together we weren't working ourselves we were taking care of each of our 24 inches or whatever 36 inches from you know she would take care of her left and right shoulder down to her feet and clean up her thing and I did mine and we did that at the same time together what was the thing that you needed to clean up the most since you got married and say for her I needed to get rid of a lot of ideas like what just all these false all these false ideas did that I had accumulated from from high school from family from what a counselors two or three of them do I mean there was that there's thousands of them money I was completely [ __ ] up about money even though I had money in what way of what was the thing mmm save money save money save money I was saving money all the time as opposed to investing money you know I use it all yeah I don't save anything you empty it well probably have six months of like runway first well hang living expenses there's no I don't I don't have any of their I don't need it because I got the cash flow so Ron Ron you got money coming in or cash flow it's gonna take care of me for like that's the thing that people have only gotten half the form to the right there oh you need six months of reserves no you don't need it you got to have life insurance no you don't need that either you don't need any that if you have cash flow coming in so you know the money thing I was screwed up on I did a retirement account when I was 19 years old that was necessary I bought life insurance when I was 21 years old that was stupid I was planning on dying or something I don't know what I was thinking about time how to manage time you know that I had all these ideas about time and that so many bad ideas I've had you know work you got to work hard raising money that raising money was going to be you know caused me problems marriage merit I'd be unhappy married the kids were gonna take away from me all these were ideas that I had you know what's been the greatest joy about being made and the biggest challenge well the channel the biggest joy the challenge is probably easier but the biggest joy is kid I mean certainly having the kids and you thought in heaven would take you away from your dreams or in your business or do I remember being scared that I just the responsibility man that's one of my fears like god damn like someone's life in your hands yeah and what happened when you had kids I got more of everything really you know more of I got more time I don't know how I actually got more time because I had this new thing to play with and I'm like man I'm gonna I was so excited about this new thing I got up earlier so we I would get up an hour earlier cuz she needed to sleep she was exhausted Elena and I would grab Sabrina and I would take her to pavilions every morning right down the street every morning and we'd walked groceries going away she was I loved with this yeah I loved it she was three months old and I take her in the swim pool every day my first daughter could I at nine months old I could take him put my foot on her at the bottom of the pool and she would be down there just coolest could be dude just kid you were training on us yeah exactly you know by the time she was a year year old she could hold on to my around my neck and we could swim the length of the pool underwater Wow yeah so and we're me and her so connected much more than that then Scarlett myself just a different completely different vibe so having a kid broke a limitation due to broke a limitation about time that I wasn't gonna have time and then it was gonna be like and then the responsibility thing III realized that like I am a great dad you know I make time hey pop I want to go bike riding okay let's go get the bikes like I have figured out I don't know I just don't say no to them and I figure out let's go do it you know would you have kids the point the plane I don't think I would have the jet if it wasn't for the kids because I needed the jet said that I could spend time with the kids you know a lot of people think the Jets for you for you but the jet really created a situation work I can spend more time with Elena and the kids otherwise I'd be on an air bus somewhere and I couldn't bring them so you know we're on our way to Rome Bucharest Dubai Singapore Malaysia and they're gonna be with me the entire time Wow so that's that's the the good thing was the expansion right of the marriage and then the hard thing Jody is just like huh the challenge yeah the challenge is like you're both aging you know which is a real deal you see that women will not like your net and that me even mentioning yeah how is that and what does that mean what's the challenge well you even the kids man you see the kids growing up fast you know you don't wanted to go up cuz you know what that means about you you're getting older you're dying you ain't getting older you're dying Wow you know my mom didn't die that night she'd been done so where where am I you know if I if I if I something happens and I die next week well the reality is I was dying right here like that's the life cycle so watching the kids I'm being reminded of my life cycle my termination date on this unit you know right right on the GU this life yeah yeah and then and then watching my wife you know and then us having to like change what we want to do you know when you first meet and you're all excited you want to do sex and you know travel yeah I mean we I bought that house up the hill and and we were 30 days maybe 45 days before closing and we would sneak into the house we were kids and we were like and we both were both firecrackers right so we would sneak into the house have sex in the house okay we were crazy dude we didn't own the house yet we were just like blessing the place before closing right and if this was so exciting to us and and and and we Elena and I had those kind of things together we would just have a blast right well when you as you get older you know and more responsible used to raising money you probably don't want to be in you know seen doing some of these things right and we live in a different world today so you know we got through 2008 9 10 that was really hard that was really good for us after she lost all your money oh yeah yeah yeah we was a terrifying and I lost a lot of my sense of confidence or well well that I had underestimated the the the reality of taking care of a wife and two kids this was the first big loss I had since being a father and a husband hmm and I was like wait a minute I I was still calculating based on Grant not not family I got a kid people two kids I got a wife my reputation starting to expand a little bit I just got whacked you know and I don't want to keep doing this like I know a lot of people say they learn from their losses but I don't I look I get better because of my successes I don't need a lot of kryptonite moments I'm not interested knows yeah just take longer to grow again yeah get back to where you wanna be you know Mike might tell me something the other day in the hotbox he says you know cuz he started thinking differently about some of the stuff I was saying to mmm and he said I said you know Mike I know you blame you know you think your successes what hurt you but I guarantee if you look back those first fights you were winning everything about everything brightened up in your life when you started winning in life hey you know my grades got better mmm he's got more confidence dude of course he even learned better I said you know III know I don't learn from the losses I learn from successes and then I try to repeat those things do more of those things that are and they give you to get the get the get the get the the bucket gets bigger yeah right the rim gets bigger the field-goal gets bigger right everything gets bigger it's easier to make the shot because I have the wins and I think it is I feel so bad for people particularly around money that they never have the victories mmm back to back enough victories to be like wow what else could I did and so Elena has given me that I would not have that if I was by myself you know you know and and the the the beautiful thing that we had that that unfortunately I see a lot of people not we just don't fight about some stuff that people fight about like what just silly stuff that's me not I mean I just see a lot of guys like he wants to be on social media and she does but we've never even had that conversation like we're just we're on we're going someplace right it's not about Facebook or Instagram she does a different than I do and there's things that like irritate me about you know but we're not there's things we just don't fight about yeah what do you fight about we we probably fight about I you know let me see what we play it's same [ __ ] over and over it's always the same stuff like like she we moved rooms into a different room at the hotel today I'm like how much is this room Elena she's like I don't know and I knew she didn't ask yeah she said I want this she's just like okay we're in a bungalow we stayed longer that rooms sold out so they need a movers too another room they move is to this pit house room I'm like how coming to this five grand at night or something and she's like it doesn't matter right what matters is she doesn't know now this is a game that I played with her and it's not it's not a fun game it's a game that nobody wins at what's the day and the game is how much is the room I know she didn't ask because I know she does not have that's not her soccer power she's not gonna ask the guy I just realized that today is I'm sitting here telling you I'm like she's never going to ask how much and I keep asking her to ask but it makes her feel bad why do you care to ask her that because I know that that with money do you should ask how much is this even if you haven't because one day I'm not gonna be here mmm and she's gonna get ripped off Wow okay her magic will get her magic powers will be taken advantage of because she lives into this ethereal she's very she's a bit naive and she would admit that and and I think more of a principle than it is like Oh totally yeah it's totally he paid for it anyways no matter what the price I should have asked I didn't ask the guy either for the same reason by the way you know so so it's this embarrassing thing how much is the room you know it's night so what do we argue about we argue about that we argue about you know she takes the kids off the sugar and the next thing you know she's given him sugar mm-hmm it's alright when she does but it's not alright when I do it right you know so that that's a bit of a bother but nothing terrible do like what's the keys I tell you another one okay she she goes down to this place she goes down to this place and works out in the morning it's a long drive dumb [ __ ] dude it's always dumb you got a sick gym right in your building all right exactly and she goes down the street it's 25 minutes like it is so dumb to go all the way down there have him come to you alright pay an extra 20 bucks or whatever yeah whatever yeah very sense now the things that she doesn't like about me I'm here you had to ask her but I'm sure is it and what's this what's the three keys to it like you had to say for any couple it was gonna get married like make sure you do these three things if you want to have as much of a chance of being fulfilled and love and the passion and the Cabana everything that could thrive in a marriage what would be the three things you think are the most important for you both the build of your dreams and have the family you want and everything yeah I don't know man I shouldn't give people advice for you know for you what would you say are the three keys to your relationship then what makes it well I always do what I say i'ma do I never don't do what I say I'm good I tell you I may be your son oh do it so you follow your word to her always no matter what it is yeah you know she doesn't not only do I do it I do it then right then like I don't know put it off so I would tell guys out there at least I would tell anybody I don't think it matters with you guys do do what you say you're gonna do and do it as fast as you can you know don't add time because if you're adding time yeah you're not doing it you're doing something else second thing number two is that you do that works well yeah you know you know I take care take care of my family man I think that's important financially spiritually emotionally yeah like like like yeah like yeah I make things go right so that they have they're taken care of I think that's more for me though though yeah just just to be completely honest I mean I you know I want to feel good about me you know so I know I'll take care of my family he's such a good provider he's doing that for himself like maybe you feel good I'm not I'm not yeah so the third thing is I think sex was important yeah I got a lot for married couples you know it's like you need to hit it dies I think you need you need to hit it even if you don't want to so how do you know okay I mean I'm just saying like you know when she's in the mood and and you know you need to turn it on dude you need lighthouse you know so and vice versa yeah like it's not about you know it's about to get you know get your game on yeah and I think a lot of relationships you know if you did sex the way if you did if you played the other games in life our business if you applied those rules if you did the same thing in the bedroom right or or you tried to do some of the bedroom I don't feel like it tonight you know I got a headache I got a period I got you know I'm just I'm tired dude if you did that in business you'd be broke so your relationship is broke too your marriage is broke like there's no way you can't do something that worked you're doing it by the way if you're doing that in the bedroom you're doing it on the phone doing your day your sales calls and stuff yep so so I say always a rise to the occasion all right you know okay I like it now you get here's something I went through some stuff recently where I actually I got a lot of critiques and haters yeah yeah yeah and I know you a lot about these and you're not you're you're you're used to this you know you've been getting people that are you rub people the wrong way you say within what you feel ya think and you know people don't some people don't like that right so how do you handle that if someone if there's just a barrage of like negative comments of this guy's a scam this guy's horrible this guy's a liar rude whatever this yeah yeah how do you deal with well it depends on whether it's like if it's false and somebody's trying to hurt me that's different than if it's got some truth in it so if it's false or someone trying to hurt you if I'm gonna crush him dude how so if they're trying to hurt me my reputation my name my money like I'm gonna [ __ ] crush him I'm gonna call him out I'm ethically publicly call him out I'm gonna take him on straight up I'm gonna make it known that they made this claim mm-hmm you know like I I know things that go on with I'm a and I'm gonna I'm gonna confront it I'm like a front and devil Wow okay evil man it's evil yeah like it's evil dude evil exists does like it people don't even know they're doing it I'm not talking about the Taliban I'm not talking about you know some bad group of people I'm talking about people Pete friends sisters cousins people that work for you dude that they they they're they're good for like seven and a half hours a day and for 30 minutes did they take on this evil valence and and if if you don't crack them then they'll do it an hour the next time so you know people in this internet influencer space it's very very small space you know the or any space whatever the [ __ ] I'm sure the NFL has in the NBA has it you know these guys have these great moments and then they go evil for a second somebody on the team needs to say hey man gotta knock it off and what if it's just now negative comments have just yeah I mean like like somebody all my my stream yeah you know they're providing you with fodder though they're there's so much good data there dude does it ever affect you emotional oh yeah I mean I look I am a weak person like I would love everyone to love me right icing this of course I mean I would like everybody to like me more you know but it's just not really never gonna happen so how do you handle it when it when it affects you emotionally do you just sit back and breathe for a minute do you reflect do you talk to hear why you go front I never tell her about it she candlelit like see it's not gonna hurt her yeah so like they call her a gold digger right yeah and then my response doing this you need to find a gold digger cuz if you're the only one digging it she's not wait see I use it I roll with it it's it's a it's a geode what is that uh the karate me right let's move with the energy dude it's got all this juice on it you know people call me a show-off like I use it now mmm I I get to it before they do what God showed off yeah I'm just trying to be more like yeah yeah you know so so today I did a post an Instagram you know it's the plane she did this photo shoot for Elle a magazine or la Style magazine and and and I in the post post is now we are showing off right you know so so there's a lot of good in the criticism or the brokenness whether it's just character defects or whatever there's probably some truth in it so it's like how do you handle that emotionally and how do you not let it consume your mind for too long where you're like not doing what you want to do yeah how do you personally deal with it not obsessing over anything like like some of its that's that's just not it's just me right some of us mean it's not meant to really cause any damage to just meanness you know I mean those people what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna probably try to see if [ __ ] harness some of that energy and show them like really put it in their face how so like okay watch out being I can get yeah so you go get the salt yeah totally totally like like okay these guys that sued me back in ten you know and they it was completely malicious totally firm that was worst thing when you get a something that's just coming after you and you just have to deal with it do you even know what it's wrong it's happening allies who the go-to movement no no some of that was legitimate no some of it was not yeah like people accusing people of doing stuff that wasn't done just spring wise total making accident making accusations about people that aren't true that are completely fabricated like that that doesn't sound do that to me yeah and it's like evil evil dude because there's nothing there's no proof and that's our sins convinced I'm like please show me the proof yeah yeah show me where I did something yeah you can't just say what you want yeah and that and then people gonna can though you can that's the thing that pisses me off if you can yes someone can say what they want right now and just people believe it yeah without having any facts are hearing another side of the story you're getting nothing it's messed up man it is and it is and it's like how do you use it though right so like that lawsuit I mean I didn't you until this happens to a person they're not gonna know what happened it's real it's true it's only it's waterboarding is not real to you until you put the rag on your face this isn't gonna and this is what's people need to understand you need to be prepared for attacks don't it is going down you expand your vision and your yeah empire yeah your dreams get ready because now everyone's gonna come after you yeah yeah everyone but it's point a half let's say it's coming it's coming and what's good about it or not yeah it's gonna come for places that you don't even imagine completely on expect to you then you might have expected to happen to me yeah and and so so how should people prepare well win that lawsuit hey I'll tell you what I did with that lawsuit cuz you never had experience with that you do know this the bills 200 grand a month I'm defending I'm defending I'm like I'm telling my lawyer about hired the best lawyer I'm like dude it I didn't do this that's not true he's like it doesn't matter dude we still got to defend it I'm like worse and you know why do I need to go to a deposition and you don't get the money back no there's no it's all it's all losers you know he's the grant you should just pay this guy [ __ ] are you paying this guy man later like 15 months in until my I should have just paid the girl right well the only way I could actually get even later it was to like I'm gonna get so big this was the best money I ever spent in my life did cost me a couple million dollars plus about a lost nine million in the deal plus never would come back plus he could tie in the health dress had to take three or four years off my life oh my gosh and and but at the end of it I told Lane I said I'm gonna get so [ __ ] big this guy every night every morning he's gonna wake up he's gonna have to see me what okay Ralph and Rob Wow and so for you guys like you like you like he's so aggressive yeah I'm trying to prove something right I'm trying I'm trying to I'm trying to show guys that the bad guys mm-hmm that like you know what you picked the wrong pony dude well you should have bet on me and you didn't you bet against me they ended up losing a lawsuit but but where they really lost was that every day now they got to be reminded Lady Gaga talked about that yes she just she was how many people calendaring her out and now they're all wishing they would have bet on her yeah and and that's not a revenge thing I know it sounds like a low-grade kind of like retaliation but but because I don't think revenge is sustainable long-term like the energy it takes to be avenged yeah well this has been 15 and working pretty good for me but you know you know I think how do you use it you know so that it doesn't consume you and and how do you keep using it you know and you know in a healthy way I'm not I'm not going out of my way down to I don't know we're not trying to harm someone yeah yeah no no and they was running on but but it really woke me up today hey man you guys got you need to have a budget for a fabricated [ __ ] craziness you need to have people should have budgets that this is the money thing that people need to confront people need to have budgets for like all kind of crazy yes even just emergencies for their life like their car it is their home some breaks down whatever it is yeah health insurance or how about how about what if the internet goes down tomorrow your business is screwed ma'am huh bastard I mean get other stuff going on well no no if the internet goes down you're not good podcast yeah you're not gonna be able to go to Whole Foods and buy food you're not gonna be able to go to but ya know cash you're gonna need cash what if it goes down for five or six days at a time right so where do people go and get money the bank's gonna be closed you're saying the banks closed I got no cash yeah the credit cards no good it's always like but how many people I know God I know God's trees got 20 million dollars for the Apple stock he's got a house as paid for it's probably worth 30 million bucks if the internet class today he could not he could not tell me yes in five days he's busted yeah he didn't have money yeah he doesn't have cash he can't get it you can't trade your house for Whole Foods so there's a lot of people in America walking around saying everything's gonna be fine we're gonna have electricity we're gonna have gas we're gonna have an auto Rico exactly and that's because I even leave the island they're stuck for only good for hell on a water for months yeah unless they were super wealthy yeah escaped how do you start to how do you build a culture of success around a team you got a few minutes now yeah yeah how do you build a culture of success around a team when you left mm tannish and move here yeah and moving probably on a small team six people yeah and then you go to Miami and build an empire over the last you know eight nine years whenever you started doing that seven eight years ago how do you build from small team to this large team now with the culture of success after you come from like a busted experience we we we have probably grown the staff 50 times since leaving la leave in LA was one of the best things that ever did as much as I like the weather here and what do you mean you grew it 50 times what is it well we're 300 employees oh wow yeah so we had six here the problem with six is you're dependent upon four broken people if you're not one of them right you know and and I I hate being dependent upon broken people hmm I want partnerships where I feel good like I got some really good people around me yeah people say this to us all the time man you got a lot of good people right yeah I do I got people that people want to hire away you know there's they're untouchable yeah so honey put that culture of people that you got to get rid of people yeah you got add and get rid of yeah you have to flush you don't flush how do you deal with that emotionally when you're when you're bitter I don't know I don't get rid of anybody you don't do it yeah I mean I'm a tough guy and they all that but I don't I don't I don't think I've ever fired anybody I say sherry farm made the call today though the city guys gotta go I don't want it I don't want a day when I get the in the week house it when I get back I don't want in there wow so it's a mistake we made a mistake sure you know it I know it I don't want the mistake I know I don't want to second-guess myself when I'm around somebody Wow sorry so when I got somebody on my team I don't mind second-guessing the other side I cannot afford to second-guess my side mmm when it's my lawyer my accountant a partner in the deal I can't have people second-guessing our playbook because I'm already already got enough it's already hard enough you got so many decisions gonna make all day yeah so when while people are worried about the other side I'm worried about our side more than the other side how do you know when you've hired the right partner how do you hide I never know that so you do your best I never know I have the right person yeah yeah but they could go bad I've had guys go bad I've had guys that that that you know they've been with us three years they're superstars they're doing great but also when you see those graphs coming down we graph everybody so everybody's on the graphics or so they're your charting ranking your calls out emails out proposals made if they're in sales sales made income brought in but if it's a personal assistant targets achieved tasks done emails handled whatever whatever it is their job is right if it's sweeping we graph it all if it was sweeping how many hallways did you sweep doorways did you sweep trash bags did you collect blah blah blah when that graph goes down to it you got a guy that's already quit you can't you can't hold you can't keep a graph erected up moving up if the guy's checked out do you feel like that's your responsibility to you know maybe you weren't paying attention just like in your relationship if that your wife checked out is that also responsibility for you to say oh maybe I wasn't giving them what they needed or the the incentive or the encouragement I don't know yeah I need to keep my own graph up so I just keep spiking my graph right my graph keeps going up I become the role model for the organization then I got Sheree she's got her graph she keeps her graph going up Jarrod needs to do his deal Seco needs to do is steal graph at all men because numbers don't lie to use your graph ever go down yeah yeah we come on thha yeah it goes down I don't normally go because what I do is I watch it when it goes down I'll pick it up again so whatever picked it up the last time I go back and hit that graph again I go back and hit that action how do you what's the system you guys used for the graphing or the is there a software as an internal thing is it it's I mean it's just it's just you know we just take whatever the task or activity is put it on put it on the right yeah exactly nothing you know what would be one piece of advice for growing the culture of success besides graphing what is there and energy is it saying a mission over and over is it you setting the example we will turn X we know we don't do need that we have a meeting every day you know we look for compliance and willingness before intelligence mmm so you not look for skill you look for someone who's I don't look from the console I never look for potential what do you look for then just like yes I'm willing to do we hired the way the Patriots do okay you know they don't hire the best guys right they never did they get all the rings oh yeah okay there's three people in charge on that team there's not 33 it is a dictator there's a dictator on that team you study all sports I mean it's pretty much like that too you know I mean Portland Portland doesn't really had that you know he leaves Korea alone and he leaves you know Duran Duran alone and they're doing good you know got me it's a different style right but but um but somebody's those are what superstars yeah man it's gotta be so hard yeah everyone's got a personality I'm yeah yeah but so let's see how long that leg is seeking laughs now what are they three years now yeah you know the area let's see if they turn themselves apart but I know that New England Patriots thing works consistently there's an owner he's not involved he didn't touch this guy bill runs the deal yeah and then and then bill gives the ball to Brady and says a good deal yeah you know so they hire they they they higher from the lower half of the draft they don't overpay for anybody and if you don't comply you're gonna off the team they're gonna win without a great person I like that there's a great person they got it yeah that's quarterback yeah yeah yeah but they got they got a bunch of no names you don't know anybody's gonna take yeah yeah and and so so I like that because then I'm not dependent upon a superstar hmm right the but when I went out and before I before I worked for myself I was the superstorm where I worked and I made them kiss the ring every day dude I was a total diva and I'm like I'm never gonna put myself in this situation where one guy runs a show interesting so that's why our staff so big you know I want to get that staff to 12-under people really does that's not stress you alcohol from six to twelve hundred no it's gonna be easier it's gonna be easier yeah get more done yeah all big companies do that so that's what we're doing we're just studying big companies down rather than studying people in my space you know people that I'm supposedly competing with or you know the guy that became a big name and outsource everything we're like no we want to take this we want to run this thing internally and get big men that's great yeah it's cool to greatness let's go gray out right now I just went you know okay cool okay a couple final questions for her this is great man I love this you broke me down today I didn't expect you to do that I wouldn't expect them you know I'm just asking questions the stage this is called the three truths I think I've asked it to you before okay so imagine it's your last

impossible just impossible you can't even quit you can't quit there's no way to quit and number three you're not a body yeah you're not you're not your physical unit love it yeah three great lessons
