Confidence means that when I walk into the room, I feel like I'm the baddest, the smartest, the best in that room.

I'm confident.

Arrogance means I'm going to treat people in that room less than me.

I'm going to overly be flashy and overly conceited.

That's arrogance, right? I'm arrogant. I put my ego in the way, and I'm just better than everybody. No, I want to tell myself I'm better than everybody and carry my shoulders up high and be confident and not fanboy. And the best revenge is success. It's not revenge. I heard some asses a nope, it's revenge. Nope. It's success. So go be successful. I remember not once, twice, three different times where I was in business and I had a new company or something happened in all my peers and they're all talking shit. Good luck with solar. Good luck with that. And then all the could just, yay, I want to do what you do. And they followed the dream, right? That's so rewarding.

And I'd have to say anything to them. I just busted my ass. So that's what I'm doing. Now I'm grinding and building new companies right now. I'm so sick of people fucking about what they don't have. Don't fucking about what you don't have. Be excited about what you got. Then go get what you don't have. complaining and running your mouth isn't going to fuck get you what you don't have.

It's just going to make you look like an idiot.

You just make an excuse. got. Then go get what you don't have. Complaining and running your mouth isn't going to

fucking get you what you don't have. It's just going to make you look like an idiot. You're just making excuses. Too many times I hear people always make excuses. $2,500 an hour to hire me to coach you or $8,000 a month. I'm expensive. Like I don't fudge. Like that's my price. Why? because I get you from A to F c from C to

H from H to M from H to M from P to P Z like there are there are steps you have to take to

build a big business there are steps you have to take it to the next level in life

there are things that you have to do and I built not one two three four, three, four, five companies worth over $10 million, one worth a billion dollars. And I built them all from scratch. You can be Superman for only so long and then you become the Avengers. You better get you a team that all has special powers that they can do to elevate your business. Like, I've been there, done that. Five hundred million in sales in one year, been there, done that.

Billion dollar valuation, been there, done that, reverse merger, been there, done that.

Trying to go public, been there, done that. Mergers and acquisitions, been there, done that. You know, raised capital and private equity, been there, done that. So I get it. I'm a big, big, big, big believer of taking what people do and reapplying it and then making it yours.

You don't have, like, do we have cell phones? Do I need to go out and make a new cell phone? No, I use the cell phone and I use it to my advantage, right? You don't have to recreate every single wheel. You do have to be creative. You do have to have a vision. You can't be a complete copycat. You can't just follow. Like I feel like I'm the OG in solar. Some people would argue that, but I'd be like, look, tell me someone who did, we just went solar first before me. Nobody. Tell somebody who said, own your power first before me. Nobody. Tell me somebody who was on the TV commercials being, you know, the pioneer and revolutionizing home, you know, solar energy at home.

Nobody was me. Like, I'm not too my own. Those are facts. So you got to be creative, but I'm not the first son of a to sell solar. I'm not the first son of a bitch to go into the solar business. Whatever you have in your life, it's all relevant. Wherever you are in your life, it's all relevant. You'd be grateful for that.

And then you try to step up and level up to the next spot to where you're hungry to succeed and be successful. That's how this works. You can't just stay in a hole. You can't just, you know, think that things are just going to fall out of the sky in your lap. They're not going to. They just won't just not how this works it's not how life works you got to go out and get it the journey the way to get there

makes you better if you've got fast instant instant success good for you but let me tell you something

it's not going to last in most cases you You got no foundation. You have no skill sets.

You only get better when things are tough and when you're having to learn to adapt to things or you educate yourself or you get a mentor and you want to learn.

Those are the things that make a difference in your life.

Not when you're complaining and you're buying ways to not, you know, to not succeed and you're holding yourself back and you're
