So other forms of media for me to be talking to you about what I think is my number one key to success. I personally, if I'm being honest with you, I feel like I've built a life that I am proud of. I checked off most of the boxes that I wanted to check off my life as far as business and success and wealth relationships and traveling and all that stuff. So I can feel. I feel like I can consider myself qualified to give you advice on this. And my number one key to Success is Not.

To be honest with you. So I really don't hear it that often. So if you're thinking oh, is it hard work and dedication? No, I think both of those are extremely important but they're not my number one key to success. In reality, this actually might be a little bit of a surprise to you. So, here it is. My number one key to success in my mind is patience.

Patience. And I'll explain why I think that it is in this episode and I have a few other keys and mindset shift to help this go little bit deeper and to make all this possible as well but I want you just to understand for you to be successful in growing a business, you're going to have some sort of competition for instance, right? You can have some sort of competition that you're going to guess whether it's other people or whether it's just yourself and in a world where everything is immediate, you have to realize that if you're creating a product and creating a company, you're you're you're not really against other companies in their products, your against the people who are running that company. And the one thing that I find is that more and more people have become less and less patient overtime.

Everything is a media, nowadays, we can immediately get any answer to any question that we, I would say. Like, there's no question that has not been Google before. Every answer that you ever want if you want food delivered, Duluth just can be delivered to your doorstep. If you don't have to leave your house ever, everything could be delivered to you, like today and knowledge. We delivered to you. If you want to watch a movie, you don't have to go to Blockbuster like you used to, you don't have to order it, and then have it sent to your house. You can just literally, watch pretty much any movie that's ever been created. So everything is so immediate. And if we want to set ourselves apart from everybody else, we need to instead of thinking that we want everything immediately, we need to start doing the exact opposite. We need to go. You know what? I will set myself apart when I am more patient because Success is Not immediate, you know, that like let's be real.

If somebody went into the gym and came out the next day and they like why don't I have a six-pack and they're pissed off about it. You be like you're crazy. Why is building the body that you want takes time? It doesn't just happen by going one time. It doesn't happen by going for a month 2 months 3 months. Sometimes it takes a year 2 years, 5 years. It takes long term, dedicated patients and action towards a goal that somebody's looking to go towards rights to Success, is Not immediate either. A lot of times we think that we see somebody in their successful and just because they finally popped up and we see them as success we're like oh my gosh, they just they popped out of nowhere, right? And it seems like they have this massive company but you didn't see the 5 to 10 to 15 years of hard, work of accumulating Knowledge and Skills in the patients that they had to literally just know that it said she was going to happen.

Should I say it? Can look like a meteoric rise to the top. But in reality was a really, really slow burn for a long time, really slow burn for a long time, and I want you to understand that, it's like that, you've heard me talk about it before, in the podcast, the Chinese bamboo, write the Chinese bamboo, the first five years. It doesn't even get out of the soil. And then on the sixth year, after six years of watering in a son that I'm watering a son and a six-year, it goes up to 80 ft in a few weeks. Sometimes, it'll go to feed a day can really watch it grow. And that's how successes for a lot of people. It's a lot of work and work and work and not a whole lot of success right away. Like people, nowadays are expecting that, they're going to start a business and it's going to be just massively profitable business within 3 months. That's ridiculous. To think that sometimes it takes 6 months a year, 2 years, five years to get there and most people just aren't patient enough. Most people are persistent inpatient to be able to put in the

Yeah, she get things done and actually get to where they want to go to before. You can be patient.

You could have to decide what you want. You have to know what you on the first place prize. This the first up some beer before I start driving my car, I have to decide where I'm going to be driving to otherwise, I'm just going to wander around in too many. People are just wandering around in their lives, right? In once you've decided what you want, get rid of any other options until I got to do, you've heard me say before there's no reason have a plan B, can plan B distraction plan a, instead of all, don't put all your eggs in one basket, and put all your eggs in one basket in and take care of that baskets, what you should do? You have to make up your mind yet? To figure out what it is that you want? You have to burn the ships. You know, that there's a story about Spanish conquistador, that would come over on ships. These Wooden Ships with his his troops and he was so afraid that they were wanted Retreat there. When they landed on Shore, he just had them burn the ships cuz it's like, hey there were succeeding here or we're dying. That's what your mindset has to be and when your mindset is this is the thing I'm going to do and there is no other thing. You didn't realize

I've got a long time ahead of me so I don't worry about that. I don't worry about competition. I don't worry about any of that stuff. 36 years old. Hopefully I live 296 that's my grandfather live to write them is like another sixty years I can be patient and as long as I just keep going, I know that there's going to be people. They're going to pop up on the way there, going to be people who disappear along the way but there is no other option. For me, there is nothing else that I'm going to do. And Sony have that idea like hey this is what I'm going to do. And I'm going to do this thing and I'm fully dedicated to this thing which is hard to find, I get it and as I always say if you don't know what it is that you're passionate your purpose is it's okay right now but it's not okay to wake up every single day and not be in constant Pursuit for that thing. If you don't know what your passion is, you've got to figure it out, you got to wake up every single day and like a heat-seeking missile. Try to find that thing every single day that you're a lot, right? So you got to decide what it is. You got to find it, then you got decide. What is in the first place?

And then you got to just get rid of all other options. You got to say, there is no other option but is it like the Eminem, quote Success, is my only motherfuking option failures? Not, that's what you have to think about it, and I'll word from our sponsor better help, you know me, I'm obsessed with making sure my mind is in the best that I could possibly be and think about this. How, well would you take care of your car? If you knew you had to keep that car your entire life, you have your brain your entire life and that's how they work. So, why do we treat them with the same amount of care? How we care for our mind, affects how we experience life. And that's why it's so important to invest time and Care into, keeping them healthy. There's plenty of ways to support a healthy brain like learning a new language, taking power naps but there's also better help online therapy. One of the things that I think every single person should do at some point in time to life is see a therapist and see if there's things that they need to work through. Better help is online therapy that offers video phone and even live chat therapy sessions so you don't have to see anyone in camera if you don't want to. It's all so much more.

Affordable than in-person therapy and you can be matched with a therapist in under 48 hours and our listeners of the minds that mentored get 10% off their first month at betterhelp.com dial, that's better h e.

So if you know how you, you know, you're 35 years old, hopefully you're going to live to 95, you got 60 years on this road for some people, if you're 35 and you might have success at 37 United States success. At 39, it might be 45 and might be 65, but eventually you're going to get to where you want to go.

The important thing is that you become impatient. Cuz the one thing that I know is that number one, most people don't start. Most people don't start at what it is and they want to do. And that is just a fact. As long as you start, you already way ahead of the pack and the number to most people who start give up very soon. And so when you see the people who are around you, and you see people who might have been your competition or whatever. His name might be realize, the majority of people can be giving up very soon. And so if you just don't give up. If you remain patient, if you just continue to persist and keep putting in the work, and keep putting in the work to keep putting in the work, you're eventually going to get to where you want to go.

That's a beautiful thing, isn't it. Let's just say you don't want, you don't want to worry about business unless it that health is your thing that you want to be working on, maybe you're overweight, maybe want to lose some weight, you want to get into better shape. You also want to just take better care of yourself. Okay, well it's not going to happen overnight, it's not going to happen. You know I saw a video of the other day if a guy who lost 150 lb and it took him two years to lose 150 lb, two years are required. Persistent the required daily action in the right direction but eventually he got the place where he wanted to be

You'll also like 150 lb or something like that. The transformation was massive when you see it, but it didn't happen overnight. There is a massive amount of patients required and success. And I would say there's only a couple things there, really, it takes to hit a goal. You can listen long enough, you've heard me say before requires Direction, requires action and requires time direction, are you heading in the right direction to achieve your goals? You know, I always say if I get, if I get into my car and I just head north, I'm in Austin, north of us, is Dallas. All eventually end up in Dallas. If I start walking, if I take a bike, if I crawl North any of those things, I will eventually end up in Dallas. The direction is more important than the speed.

So am I heading the right direction? Direction, am I taking the right actions to light up with that direction? And then a three-time time, we'll just work itself out. It's going to work out the way they're supposed to him. And there's many things that just across the universe, just take time, success takes time, ladies, if you've ever had a baby before? Imagine if your husband would have come up to you while you're in the middle of you know until you're six months in and your husband looks just watching. Psych honey. Do you think we could? Could we hurry this up? Like I really want to go on vacation before the end of the year. You are so hot that it wasn't you like this ridiculous. It takes 8 to 9 months have a baby most of the time not a premature and all the stuff shorts, but it takes about 9 months have a baby

It'd be ridiculous, became up to a four or five months and he's like, hey, can we get just get this done? Like, are you ready to go? Can you speed up the process? May be ridiculous. Why? Cuz we know, Across the Universe humans and takes about nine months, have a baby, that's what it takes. Well, your success, your happiness, your health Journey, the Tron, all these dreams, it's going to take a certain amount of time. You've got to be able to just give up the expectation that is going to happen soon. That is going to happen in a year. That's going to happen in two years. And the only thing that you've got to really be focused on his. Am I heading in the right direction? Am I taking the right action? In the time will work itself out and I was saying this the other day to my fiance we're driving back from dinner. And I said you know what's really cool about life? That's really close. I remember being 19 years old and I remember reading books and wanting success in wanting to make money and wanting to create something for my life. And I was reading these books. These books were giving me information that I felt was true and I trusted it not.

Knowing if it was true or not. But it was, it was talking about working hard and so, I'm not patience, persistence is time up working on yourself every single day. Self-improvement, tell me all these things in there was something that's felt like it, rung. True inside of me like, this feels like it's true. I had no idea that she was actually true, though. But, Seventeen years ago, I trusted it and I work towards and it felt right? And I worked was in it fell. It worked was and felt right. It's cool. I'm 36, and I've been on this path for 17 years to go. Holy crap. All of those books, right? Not one of them lied to me, not one of them or false, everything that I read from them, was exactly what I needed to hear in all of them helped me in the past and I'm on and that's what's cool about it. It might not be a year 2 years, 3 years and might be 17 years down the road until you finally get what you want. But getting what you want in life is way better than live in your entire life, 90 95 years old and not getting what you want. And it takes you 15, 16, 17 years like it did for me. I'm here to tell you

It's still worth it. And what you have to realize if you can get whatever, is it you want in this life? You just have to be heading in the right direction, taken the right action and you have to run that time will work itself out. You have to be patient, don't stop moving. It doesn't. Matter of fact, you go just about as you go in the right direction and so the thing I really want you to get from this podcast episode is that whatever it is that you want, you can go out and get it. And that's the beautiful thing about being a human. That's the other thing that I told her, we were driving all night. It's so cool that has a human. You can do and create and be whatever it is that you want. That's out of our conversation. She started for us. It is so cool.

You can just decide to be something different today and you can stay on that path and you'll be a completely different person in a year in 5 years in 10 years.

That's awesome in my mind. That's amazing Mastery than path of mastering becoming who you want to become is an amazing thing for us all to understand, but we've gotta understand when anything else, these things will take time, we can create something to whoever we want to be. But just like that, the Chinese bamboo, it might take 5 years 6 years before it finally popped out. But when it does pop out and it grows 60 ft, you can look back at home and I'm so glad that I made this decision to become the person. I want to become. I'm so glad that I had in the right direction. So glad I took the right action and I'm so glad that I was patient and I didn't give up on myself because when you get to that finish line and you look backwards, you realize it was so worth it and nothing would be worse than giving up in the process fast-forwarding, six years and thinking that I could have done more with my life.
