Dean Graziosi delivers a personal, anecdote-driven talk arguing that success is more than money and is defined by meaningful experiences. Using stories (airport mishap, fishing with his children, and a DM from a struggling student) and examples of unconventionally educated successful people (Richard Branson, Tony Robbins), he encourages listeners to move past limiting beliefs and pursue days they will remember forever.

Sit back, relax, enjoy this 1 hour 30 minute flight gate to gate over to Soli. I lost my driver's license two weeks ago and I had have been avoiding the motor vehicle so I couldn't get it. I couldn't get my rental car. So there's always a solution. So we got this. You're a driver's list. Hey, Randy, do I need to put shoes on over these or. No, I don't think they're gonna fit. Girl says, wow, you got big feet. You know what that means? I'm like, yeah, watch. She goes, probably got big shoes. So here, just take this. You can pull some string like that. That's how you pull it. And then you put it out there and then you can let it go as you get more. You're doing so good, buddy. There are a lot of fish here. There is. They just don't feel like biting today. Let's go. You wanna go down on the stream? Yeah, let's do it. I'm gonna go do a little. I'm a little pitch. Yeah, I'm gonna do a little. I got something I want to do. And then you tell me when. You know, we all have our thoughts of what success are and what the definition of your next level is. To me right now, I couldn't have a better day in my life. I'm here at 10,000ft up in Utah, fishing in an amazing lake with my two kids, teaching them how to fly fish. And this is what life is about. Experiences. So I had a message come through on a DM through Instagram. There was a young kid who had failed math in college, the same course five times, until finally he can't take it anymore. And I felt it in his heart because I remember thinking that way. I remember when I was young and feeling desperate because I was in special reading, desperate because I couldn't figure out algebra. And I remember my guidance counselor telling me I should be a mechanic, I should be a blue collar guy, I should stay working with my dad. How sad was that? That. That life we've evolved to think that if you're not good at one particular skill set, then you live a mediocre life or an average life, or an okay life. And there's no better day. That I would define success as a day like today. Because experiences last a lifetime. I'll remember this day on my deathbed. And I want you to have those days. I want everyone to have those days. But before you can get to these days, you have to get out of the feeling hopeless. Get out of feeling that you don't live in the right area or you're not smart enough, or your parents don't support you or your husband or your wife or your girlfriend or boyfriend. You don't need a million skills. I was blessed to spend time with Richard Branson, who's a billionaire. He didn't go past seventh grade. My buddy Tony Robbins never passed high school. Every story. I know people struggled, but they found a way to the other side, Sam.
