Uncomfortability is the KEY to Success...Here's why

Take uncomfortable action. Do the things you need to do, even if it's at your own pace. You don't have to be Roger Rabbit going 100 miles an hour. But you got to move forward. Don't wait. No one's coming to do this for you. Whatever you have, whatever capabilities, whatever part of our company you are or anything you're doing, if you really want to make a difference, if you want to be in that place where you can have your oxygen mask on first, I'm going to be really honest with you. It's not easy. I've doubted myself a million times. I felt like an imposter a million times. I've had my own family look me in the eye and say, stop being a dreamer, Dean. That's for other people. You didn't go to college. We don't come from that kind of money. You'll never be that. They don't say that when I land my own jet in my hometown and my whole family gets off my own plane. I don't say that to be a jerk. You don't even see me. Did you ever see me post a picture of my plane on my Instagram? I'm not the guy that holds up money or shows you in my plane or my house. That's the house of my dreams. I don't do that. I don't want people to follow me because I hold stacks of money on a Facebook ad. Right? I want people to know me for the heart I have. But I'm blessed to have more success than I ever could have dreamed possible. And I get to take care of the people I love. I got to put my own oxygen mask on years ago, and now I put it on a lot more people than you'd ever know. That's not all I donate to. We've done it in a lot of different areas, and this year I want to donate. I don't know about the feelings you have, but who. Who felt that in their heart when I shared what I was able to do? Right? Who in here has a desire to help other people? Once you're secure, Can I give. Can I share something with you? And I want to share this today because it just feels on my heart. I'm going to tell you to be selfish. Be selfish. Be selfish for the next three years. Go get yourself strong. Go put your own oxygen mask on. Put some money in the bank. Crush your company. Be selfish with your time. Be selfish with your income. Be greedy on the amount of money you want to make. I'm telling you, be Greedy. Be selfish. You know why? Because if you go all in, if you stop thinking, I wish I could do more, be more, go all in and make the money, get secure and put your oxygen mask on. And what you can do in five years from now, what you can do in seven years from now, what you could do in 12 years from now is unbelievable. But we need this moment of us. We need this moment of getting ourselves so many of us, so many of you I see right now are the most giving people you've ever. Anyone knows. You're the person that gives the most. You know what you're doing? You're putting oxygen masks on everybody else, and you can barely breathe. You're out there helping everybody. Let's do this, let's do this, let's do this. And you're barely breathing. You're like, here's an oxygen mask. Here's an oxygen mask. When you need to hold it to your face. I love the story of Andrew Carnegie, right? What did Andrew Carnegie, at a certain pace of his life, you know what he said? I'm going to spend half the first half of my life making a ton of money, and I'm going to spend the second half of my life giving it all away. If he would have. If he would have felt guilty, if he would have not went for it, he never would have got to the ability to do the things that he was able to do with his money. I'm telling you, be greedy. Be selfish. So you could be the least greedy and the least selfish for the long run, right? What is. What does Tony always say? And I think he got it from Jim Rohn, who probably got it from somebody else. But we all overestimate what we can do in a year, and we underestimate what we can do in five. Who in here in five years from now would love to sit down with your family, like I was able to do this Christmas, right after Christmas, and say, as a family, we have X amount of dollars that we want to help people. What do you guys want to do? How does that. I don't know. Maybe that doesn't ring a bell for everybody. It rang a bell for me and my wife's like, oh, my God, I want to help kids. And my daughter was like, I want to help this. There's too much separation in our world right now. Who can we help out to help bond our communities, bond the people, become the human race? My son had his idea. I'm like, okay, what do you want to spend? Go online, find a great company, find Somebody that's got five star rating, go, come back to the table. Who are we going to donate money to? How does that feel? What does that do for your soul right now? What does that do for your heart right now? Is that bigger than anything else? But I'm telling you, don't do that until your, until your mask is on. That's the part we all want to do. Who wants to do that? Who wants to donate more, give more, impact more? Right, but who's, I'm not saying you shouldn't help out now. If you don't donate a million out of 10 million, you won't donate, you know, I mean, if you won't donate a dollar out of $10, you won't donate a million out of 10 million. We can do things now, but be more selfish, more greedy with your time, your money and all of it right now. But put your focus on, you put your focus on being successful. Because then in one year, three year, five years, you get to cut checks and make an influence, make an impact. And that's what I consider being success. Success isn't just the money. You know, I have to tell you and do you mind if I share? I hope you don't think I'm bragging. I don't tell anybody, I don't take pictures. But 10 years ago, 10 or 12 years ago, I got invited by somebody. Now maybe 15 years ago, I got invited to go on a private plane. I honestly don't know how long ago. It could have been 20 years ago. And it was somebody that was really wealthy. And I was like, I came from a kid that was in a trailer park and I was already in business and I was already doing well, but nothing like that. And I flew on this plane and it was like, you just drive your car to the plane, you drive right out on the tarmac. I'm in shock. You get out of your car, you take three steps, you walk up into the plane, it takes off, you land. And when you land, your rental car is waiting at the bott of the steps. I'm like, holy crap, this is unbelievable. There's food on the plane, there's a bathroom on the plane. It's like, this is ridiculous, this can't be possible. And I remembered that plane and I remember thinking to myself, I'm buying one of these someday I'm going to buy it. After I hit certain criteria, after I saved enough, after I gave enough away, I'm buying one of these. And I've chartered since then. I probably phone, mostly private. I Don't know. Ten years. I don't. I never talk. You never hear me talk about this. Look at this. Some of us. Some of you, I have a relationship with for 7 to 10 years. Never shared this. That's why I don't want you to respect me because I got a big house and a plane. I want you to respect me for my heart, my feeling, and how I got here. And that's what I hope. I hope I share that with you guys. You see a lot of people go on your Facebook right now, I guarantee there's somebody holding the half a million bucks in their hand and someone else in front of their Lamborghini and someone else showing off their watch. Right? You never see that with me. I wear pretty much a gray T shirt today. It's a very special day. I have a greenish gray shirt on. It's a special day right here. I digress. I was on that plane probably 15, 18 years ago. I bought that plane a year ago. But was it easy? No. Have I failed miserably? Yes. Have I doubted myself? Absolutely. Have I felt like an imposter? More than you'll ever know or ever believe. But it's possible. The only thing is we have to stay in the game. We have to find what drives us. We have to keep moving forward. We have to say to ourselves, again, I see so many incredible people on here. I know the success you've had. This isn't about you not having success up until now. It's about me hopefully helping you get to that next level of success. And listen, I'm at a place where I don't. Yes, I have a plane. I have a beautiful home, But I'm not flashy. I drive a Ford pickup truck. By the way, guys, if you lived in Arizona and you saw me at a red light, I drive a white Ford F150 every day. I do not have any other car. I don't have motorcycles. I don't buy watches. I have a really nice watch on my wrist right now. If you know watches, it's one of the nicest watches out there. It was a present from Tony Robbins from all the work we do together. Or else I'd have a simple old watch or not wear one at all. So I'm really simple in some areas. And then I get to do the things that I want. But I wouldn't do any of those things that I want unless I could give at the level I want to give. Last year, I donated more to charity than ever before in my life. I need to do that. I need a break. Last year, this year, right. So that's my message for today, is it's all possible. Dream big. But no, we have to put in the work. It doesn't come by accident. There's no magical money machines. You don't invent something today and be rich tomorrow. You don't put a page up on mastermind.com on Friday and by Monday, there's a million dollars in your account. It's a process. It takes time. It takes effort. It takes work. It takes overcoming your fear. It takes being brave. It takes being courageous. And at the end of the day, I've had an ulcer before. As a kid, I've stressed, I've gone broke, I've been ridiculed. I felt bad about myself, I felt insecure. And at the end of the day, I would do it a million times over. I get to be with you amazing people. And here's the thing. I know if I would have stayed and just went into a job and worked for someone else, even though I knew I had more to give the world, and I'm not saying a job is bad, I'm saying the wrong job, right? I still would have failed. I still would have felt like an imposter. I still would have been ridiculed. All those things still would have happened. But I would have someone else with their foot on my head. So if somebody says to me, man, be doing your own thing, going for that next level is scary. Yes, it's even scarier to think that I have to listen live by someone else's rules for the rest of my life. Think about what's scarier. Trying and failing or living by someone else's rules for the rest of your life. What's up? What's up? Hey, don't forget to look at the action steps we've posted below. They are the perfect way to take your success, abundance in this crazy world to a whole another level.
