A 44-year-old entrepreneur credits his mentor and daily discipline for turning his business around. He started with How to Think and Grow Rich at 20, now writes affirmations on his mirror each morning, and says home improvement owners need mentorship and consistent action to break the limiting beliefs they inherited.
I've been studying personal development since I was 20 years old. I'm 44. I've been in the books. My very first book was How to Think and Grow Rich. Like, I had a mentor. I always tell people I was dumb enough to listen to these people and they changed my life and they just keep feeding me these books and I'm like, oh my gosh. And I would implement just one thing out of the book every time. Discipline. For anybody that wants to be successful, you have to have the discipline to get up every morning and do the things that you need to do to achieve the results that you want to achieve. Is it easy? Absolutely not. You know, it's positive affirmations every morning to trick yourself that you're better than you really are, because truly you have the potential to be better than you are. Oh my God, I love it. And so I always tell people, when I was in that spot and I was trying to become— I was a serial entrepreneur and I couldn't make any money, but it was my conditioning from my parents and yada yada. But once I recognized that it was my conditioning, I wrote on my mirror, I'm healthy, I'm wealthy, I'm successful.
