If you're stuck, the only reason you're stuck is because you're not making progress. And if you're unstoppable, all you're doing is making consistent progress. The reason I chose the word unstoppable is because apparently, when I was about three years old, my mother decided to name me Steamboat because I had two switches I had off and on. And as a result, one of the things that happened was I began thinking, okay, really? All right. If I go to the core, the core of the matter of how I was able to build a business, it's not because I'm special, guys. I have a ged. That is the extent of my scholastic education. What I did have is I had immense resilience. And I can promise you, there have been thousands of times where I wanted to give up. And if I could inspire one of you guys, just one of you guys, not to give up on your dream, your ambition, your business, and instead give you practical steps to build it, then we can do some really cool stuff in the world.
