Preview of this episode:

34:32 - You're gonna lose all the time. But the difference is you realize the loss is just a loss in the moment. It's not a loss forever because I think too often we get devastated by our losses and it cripples us.
48:30 - I think social media can be dangerous, right? There's a quote by Karoli that says, your happiness isn't about the thing, it's about how you think about the thing.

Preview of this episode:
16:07 - “Like Parkinson's law, the work will expand to fill the time allotted for it. So we filled that plate. The issue is once we started getting 11 or 13-inch plates, well guess what? We still fill those up and now we just are obese. So the question is, can I one artificially limit the size of the plate, right? Can I time block an activity that might take other people four hours, I'm only gonna give it an hour and it's gonna take an hour.”
29:45 - “The Mark Twain quote, I always tell them is “Don't let the degree get in the way of your education”. That's really key too because if I ask them usually like if you could pay me whatever you're paying over four years and I hand you a piece of paper to your degree, how many of you would do it now?”
30:43 - “So reading now becomes stupid and boring. And why would I ever read? Because I hate reading. So don't read stuff you hate reading. But they have to read stuff in high school, right? So I think they're taught that school equals education, which equals boring. School equals boring sometimes but with education, it shouldn't, definitely not.”
53:18 - “I think there are people who think, because I do (X) I'm religious cuz I go to church, I'm religious. I remember that you guys both served missions. I served a mission. I got this letter from someone in my state presidency back home and the quote was, “going to church doesn't make you a spiritual person. Just like sitting in a garage doesn't make you a Cadillac or something.”
62:44 - “Regret can last forever. Discipline takes time right now but this is like Jim Roh's quote– but regret can last forever, right? I think that we've been sold something false there.”

Preview of this episode:
08:00 - “One moment can change the rest of the moments you might ever have. And I, I think that's so true that when everything comes together, there is one moment, and I think we're all striving for that one moment to find, oh, that's my purpose, that's my why. Mm-hmm. , you know, and sometimes it takes a while to get there and sometimes it just falls in your lap.”
14:54 - “The number one thing that we all strive for as humans is connection. That's why we stay in abusive relationships. That's why we stay in relationships that aren't good for us, whether they're abusive or not. That's why we want to be in the, “in” crowd.”
22:54 - “You are, every day that you've lived, every day that you have lived from day zero to now is a part of you.”

But in the end, thinking long term, again, thinking with the end in mind, like Steven Covey says, is when you do show up for them, they know it's the most authentic and real you.”
54:20 - “one of my favorite quotes is, in any story, in any good story, there are things that are seen and there are things that are hidden. And I think that the parts of our life that are hidden, the more we talk about those and bring 'em to our conscious, the more we find trusted people around us, the more we actually learn.”

Preview of this episode:
13:12 - “So the lesson I learned there was really, nobody really cares about your money more than you do. And nobody cares about your business more than you do either. You know, so you have good employees and hopefully, you mentor them and whatnot, but still, they're still employees, you know?”
23:35 - “My thought process in those early days was I wasn't looking at what am I doing. I'm not just building this home care business, but I'm circling myself with people that know how to build businesses that have resources.
25:24 - “in my mindset when I did this was never how do I replace my income? It was how do I become free? How do I keep my income but yet not have a job, you know? How do I really become free?”
29:24 - “Well, one is you have to understand the business that you're in, right? And so, like I said, just because you're in business doesn't gonna make money, right? And even if you're in business, that does make money, if you don't understand what your product is, what your service is, and you're not the best at it. Or if you can't attract talent, then you're just not gonna succeed.”
49:54 - “It's just knowing what your priorities are. You know, really being true to who you are and what you want to accomplish. And cuz and at the end of the day, money comes and goes,”

Preview of this episode:
14:31 Real estate investment– if it goes well, it goes well, but if it goes bad, it goes really bad. Right? if a real estate deal goes bad, you oftentimes risk losing the whole house, right? Foreclose. You completely lose the asset, all the money you put into it.
18:38 Obviously real estate is an inefficient enough market that you can find inefficiencies, and mispricings and that's the whole thing, right? Like the stock market's not super inefficient. It's pretty hard to go out and find stocks that are truly undervalued for no good reason. And you're just gonna scoop 'em up on a deal.
22:20 Whether it's a single-family resident and a storage unit or anything like that. When you do those, Investments. It is like it is, you're doing the same thing Warren Buffett does when he goes and buys the whole company, right? You're buying the whole home, the whole duplex, the whole storage facility, and you're saying, I have systems and processes a way of managing different so I can manage this asset or this now, this company essentially differently and I can increase the value myself, right?
I'll be the value add and that, and so you found that inefficiency added your efficiency to it and now it's a performing asset.
24:46 if you're just trying to turn and burn on the commission then you don't have the time cuz you gotta hunt and kill and hunt and kill and hunt and kill.
I'm like a farmer dude. Plant the fields. Yes. Cultivate 'em. And I harvest a lot of crop because of it. And, and every year it keeps growing back for me.
