Chapters

I'm a member of entrepreneur organization. And one thing I would spend money and people would say, well, why do you want to be part of EO entrepreneur organization? It's 10,000 bucks a year. And for some people that's a lot of money to be a part of a club. But we would do these things called oils, once in a lifetime opportunities. One of the coolest ones was in Vancouver. And I'll never forget, I'm at the top of this glacier and there's this climber guy that's going to tell us we're going to traverse down. He gives us a pickaxe, tells us how dangerous it is. And we had to jump over this crevasse. And you look down and if you fall into this thing, it's game over, you're dead. And at that moment I was thinking that was a cool freaking thing to do. So those experiences were once in a lifetime stuff.
