Key Quotes:
- “When you think of the challenge, think of a high-growth opportunity and lean into it.”
- “Mastery takes time — there’s a maturation process.”
- “Confidence comes from a commitment to mastery. Commitment is 100% word. If you’re 98% committed, you ain’t committed.”
- “Mastery is a pursuit of practice until it becomes automatic. And once it becomes ritualized and automatic, your mind and body connect and allow you to focus on the bigger picture.”
- “Each of us is a one-of-a-kind phenomenon, and your path will be unique. So be courageous and defiant of the right way.”
- “If you’re always on a mastery path and you’re always learning, the learning creates the skills, the skills create the value, the value creates income, and you can continue to compound this as time goes on.”
- “If you know where you are and where you want to go, the first pathway may not work. The second one may not work, but you try multiple pathways until you get to where you need to go.”

He later shares how you should not be afraid to ‘toot your own horn’ along with great tips on how he gets his team motivated and involved.
Key Quotes:

- “Life does guide people where they should be if you’re listening close enough.”
- “I’ve taken plenty of courses, don’t get me wrong, but my best knowledge has been practicing in the practices of those people that people end up taking a continuum with.”

- “You can either focus on that failure or you can make it a success.”
- “I’m not very shy so I’ll tell people who I think I am and what I think I can do for them and I’ll do that every day.”
