what's going on everybody how you doing
I want to talk today about something
personal that I have been going through
the past couple weeks which is feeling
like a loser in business and let me
explain I want to bring you guys back to
when I first started this company
I remember in like the second or third
month where I had made a couple sales
here and there and it just wasn't
popping off the way that I wanted it to
be and I was really trying hard to make
things happen and I remember I was
sitting on the bus one day and I was
sitting next to one of my friends who
was a successful businessman in the real
estate industry and I said to him you
know I just feel like a loser I said
things aren't happening things aren't
working the way that I want them to be I
feel like I'm losing and I feel like a
loser and you know as as people as
businesspeople and our our entire
mentality is an entire self-worth is so
wrapped up in our businesses if our
businesses or if our businesses are
succeeding then we are succeeding as
people and for businesses aren't
succeeding then we're not succeeding as
people and it's couldn't be further from
the truth and the past couple weeks I
had a situation in business that made me
feel like a loser and you know what I'm
not a loser I'm the furthest thing from
it I try with my whole heart I'm a good
guy I'm kind I'm good to the people
around me I'm good to my employees to my
staff to my clients by the situation
that was outside of my control that was
making me feel like that thank God I
dealt with it and I took care of it but
for two weeks who was grueling wasn't
easy and the entire time my evil
inclination was trying to convince me
that I'm a loser I haven't been posting
as much I haven't been involved as much
my employees thought that I something
had happened but really ultimately was
just this denying inside of me you know
what we all go through it here's another
thing that I'm absolutely sick and tired
of is everybody pretending like
everything is perfect and that's not the
case life is not perfect
the world is not perfect business is not
perfect people are not perfect and you
know what I'm not afraid to admit that
I'm not perfect so in those couple weeks
how did I get through it that's what I
want to share with you because I know
that some people are going through this
okay I came in every single day and when
I walked in the front door of this
office I put a smile on my face and when
I spoke to my client I put a smile on
and I put my best foot forward
and you know what just for me to show up
and be average like everybody else I had
to try five times as hard just to show
up and just put a smile on my face it's
like everybody else but in those hard
times and we all go through them so I
don't care you want to judge me judge me
that's your problem because you go
through it too don't fool yourself in
those hard times you try five times as
hard but you know what happens when you
come out of that you know what happens
when you come out of the dip you're
already x 5 X 10 X and when you come out
you're stronger than you came in and
you're ready to fight another day now
when you put that smile back on your
face and the life comes back to you
don't forget that there's other people
out there that are going through that
and you never know you never know here's
what I learned during this you never
know what's going on somebody's mind and
what's going on with some insight some
of these hearts and sensitivity is so so
important so to my sweet people out
there don't let anybody fool you don't
let anybody tell you you're a loser
don't care what people think and most
importantly don't think that you're a
loser the most the only person's opinion
that matters is what's between the ears
and what's up there the big man up there
besides that everybody's obsolete
do what you got to do hustle forward
hustle on can't wait to hear you guys
succeed and win I'm rooting for you I am
I'm here with you guys I'm in this just
like you not more special not more
significant no more anything just a
regular guy trying to feed his family
and try to build a business by the way
thank God we are rolling we're doing
great I'm saying so thankful to all the
people up there that watch this and
follow this I'm with you
let's win together have a great day
