A self-made millionaire who hit seven figures at 26 in the transformation industry credits relentless discipline and turning doubt into fuel. His son, who has a terminal disease, is his greatest hero and keeps him grounded. He tells younger people: Create. Stop consuming.
How old were you when you became a millionaire?
26.
That's amazing. What line of business are you in?
Transformation.
Did you ever think growing up what you've created would be possible?
100%. Always believed in myself. Maybe too much confidence. I don't know.
What has been the biggest driving factor of your success throughout your career?
Discipline and determination. Like not taking no for an answer. Believing in myself. Like understanding that I could get anyone I wanted on the phone or do anything I wanted to do.
Did you ever have anyone who doubted you?
100%. One time I felt like everyone doubted me. It was more of my mindset than theirs. Now I think it was strength. Whenever someone doubts me, it literally motivates me more.
It's fueled with the fire. Who's your hero?
My son.
Why?
This kid has a disorder that is a terminal disease, and the simple of like looking up in the cloud, just enjoying it, he has such joy and simple because the little dude never is anywhere but the current moment. So when I spend time with him, I'm at peace, love, and gratitude. I've said on other podcasts he's my, he's my mentor because everyone's like looking for this magic mentor. Sometimes it's an 11-year-old boy.
What's the greatest advice you've ever heard or received?
The Beatles, uh, Love Is All There Is.
Number one book everybody should read other than the ones you've written?
I think Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich, is, is one that stands the test of time.
If you and I were to die and you had to give one last final message to the younger generation, what would it be?
