Lifelong #Lessons for #Success #MentorshipMagic

Your dad taught me some life lessons, and I want to share a story with you. I was probably 14 years old, and he comes by, and in typical Jack Perry fashion, he says, how you doing, rascal? Real intense. Are you reading? Are you growing? Are you. You know, and I'm not reading any books right now, Mr. Perry. And what are you listening to? And I tell him I'm not reading anything, and I'm not really listening to anything. I was honest with him, and he said, well, that's okay. That's okay. But every day, kind of like every day's a new day. I'll tell you what. You ever heard of a guy named Dennis Waitley? And I said, no, I've never heard of dance whales. I'm going to bring you a set of tapes, and I want you to listen to them. Try it. Try it for 10 days. Try it for 30 days. See what happens. And he gave me the life lesson he instilled in me. A life lesson to be a lifelong learner, really early on, to feed your mind positive things. And Jack had a way, as an outsider, sort of getting through to me, saying, you need to be a lifelong learner. You need to be a student of success. You need to be a student of studying people who have done things that you want to do.
