This is a YouTube video titled "You want more freedom and money? Start by building a team worth working for." It features a conversation between Lance and another speaker discussing the evolution of Lance's purpose in business—from initially focusing on personal success to prioritizing creating a great workplace for his team. The discussion centers on leadership, team building, and the personal and professional growth that comes from fostering a supportive work environment.
Lance, tell me about your why, like, what was the purpose that got you into this space and why you're doing all these things? What's your driving force behind it?
Well, well, that's. That's changed over the years, of course. So, you know, at first, when you're the first sole owner of a business and the sole proprietor and you're the only one ever, then your idea there, and my demand was, you know, to make a good living, to make money or to have your own place so you can be the boss and in charge. As that's evolved now to where I've gotten way more people on my team, my passion now is honestly for them to have a great place to work. So, like, for those people to have a great place to go to work every day, that they can be that forever for, like, a lifetime career that we're setting up a place for them to be able to do that.
It's amazing to think about how your purpose is twofold, and one of them is deeply personal. The first one is the team, and that. That's a big thing for people listening. And it was a big shift for me was when I realized that the team that I was building was the greatest gift that I could build. And ironically, that's when my freedom and money increased.
