We have all made a commitment to do something that for one reason or another didn't get done. We have also had someone make a commitment to us only to not follow through. Remember how that made you feel about that person and the relationship. Imagine how your life and relationships would be affected if every time you made a commitment you kept a commitment.

In this episode Justin discusses the ultimate advice every upcoming high school graduate.
In my career as a car salesman time and time again I try to explain the lessons in this episode to customers. Some listen, others don't. And the ones that don't get burned bad.
The holy grail, the living life on the beach in paradise experience that everyone wants but isn't sure how to achieve. Well in just a few minutes you'll know how to do it for yourself.
In today's episode I discuss why I despise salespeople and why you probably do too. I also talk about how to avoid working with a terrible salesperson.
If there is one complaint I hear the most when talking to people, it's the amount of time people spend at the dealership when buying a vehicle. In today episode you will learn 3 quick tips to save time when buying a car.
You know that feeling...you find a car that you want to buy, then you have to fill out a credit app, then wait for the manager to submit it to the bank (or banks), then you have to wait for the bank to send a response, then you get the numbers and you have to assume that the interest rate the dealership is saying you qualified for is actually the interest rate you qualified for instead of a lower one. Here's how to avoid that wasted time, and worrying about the interest rate.
