It's not, 'I'll get around to it someday.' It's critical." "Marketing is getting your message out. It's a promotion. It's getting your message out in front of people with the intention of attracting them to you." "If it's not relevant, your message will be ignored." "If you're all prospecting, it's tiring. It's a grind. But as you market your product, service, or brand better, you start to attract people to you, and you catch them later on in the process." "Most people don't have the patience to pay themselves first, make their savings automatic, and let it build over time. That takes a unique, disciplined mindset, but it's extremely powerful when you do." "When you learn how money really works, it sometimes sheds light on what you were or weren't taught when you were younger." "Sometimes we don't have the vision yet. Sometimes we're not clear on it, and creating that vision can be a process." "Everyone in an organization, whether you're in sales, marketing, customer service, a clerk, or whatever, should know who the customer is. We should all know our value, and we should all know how to talk about it." "You get clarity through imperfect action. You start heading in a direction you think is right, make some mistakes along the way, and make adjustments. That's when clarity starts to come." "Just about everybody trying to produce any kind of result, it boils down to confidence. Because if you don't have that, you won't get to the next stage." "You don't want just word of mouth. You want to get connected with people. So use the word that represents that." "The hidden heists are the limiting beliefs and mistaken assumptions we all have around money. There's a lot of money story going on for us." "If you're stuck somewhere, the first place to go isn't necessarily strategy or tactics. It might be to self-reflect, on your business, your product, and your belief in yourself."

"Those date nights are super, super important. But I encourage every man to do this: date night is yours. You own it. You're in charge of it. You plan it. You figure out where you're going. Her job is to show up and look beautiful. That's it. You're in charge." "I believe that it is encoded in our DNA, as men, to pursue. We know how to do that. But something happens to us once we get her, meaning the wedding day. It's like a switch back here turns off. We stop pursuing." "Everything else you do in life is built around date night. Everything. It's that important. Without it, your marriage is going to die." "I always think of health first, personally, because I feel like if my health is off, everything else is off. It doesn't matter what else is going on."

    NOTABLE QUOTES:

    "There's ups and downs through business, through life, or whatever it is. So having that person as a support, an amazing support system, is huge."

    "If you're working on your relationship together, and the two of you are staying together as one and building that, you can overcome anything."

    "What people show on social media isn't always 100% accurate."

    "What's normal to you is magic to others."

    "Selling is serving. If I'm serving someone, they never feel sold to."

    "Most businesses, unfortunately, tell the wrong stories. They start with stories about themselves and their history. No, that's not what people want to know, not initially. What people want to know is: 'I'm coming to you with a problem. I think you might be able to help me.' If you start telling stories about people who had my problem and how you helped them, I want to learn more. Those are the stories we need to be telling, at least initially."
