Never Let Yourself Hold YOU Back

I have a good friend, Bill Perkins, and he's, like, a billionaire. And we're walking along on his little mansion, and he just stops, looks at me and goes, do you think that you've been investing in the small business for so long that small has infected your thinking? And I paused for a second, and I was like, I don't know. I have to think about that. And instead of getting defensive or feel judged, and he was judging me, he was like, you are thinking small. It's not big enough, and you're wasting your time. And I could have felt like, who is this man to tell me all this? Must be nice when you're a billionaire. But instead, I did the opposite. I was like, God, I think he's right. Let me think on this. And I came back and brought him something else. And we did a business together where he gave me $3 million, and I invested a couple million of my own. And now we're building this huge thing that never would have happened without judgment.
