Mark Evans built his success over 26 years starting from nothing, working 4:30 AM to 9 PM or midnight. He dismisses excuses, especially from parents who claim they're too busy, arguing that hard work and early mornings are what separate people who build something from those who don't.

And it's the same people saying, oh, I have kids and this and that. He knows I'm getting up 4:30, 5:00 clock every morning. I got my thing in the morning, she's got her thing in the morning and afternoon. Boom, boom, boom. The parents that are sitting there making excuses, when do the excuses stop? Stop taking vacations, start working at 5 o' clock to 9 o' clock at night or 9 o' clock to midnight when they go to bed? I know it sucks, but guess what? That's what it has to take. When are you going to stop making excuses? If I believe I can accomplish something, there's no excuse that's going to get in the path of accomplishing something. And I know what you're probably thinking, okay, Mark, it's easy for you to say. You got all this money, you got all this help. You know what you're looking at. Fast forward 26 years later. You saw earlier, I didn't come from money. I had to work my ass off to get to where I'm at today.
