| 0:00.0 | You know, your your hustle is legendary. The things you've done, the markets you have made. The things I believe that you will do, I just have to share, you know, your story with my audience and and I know that you're going to, you're going to help people that maybe you're trapped. See a way out. |
| 0:23.0 | Yeah, that seems like the task at hand, you know, you know, lately I've been, I'm looking at myself, and I was younger, I always thought I was a superhero and people were like convincing me or trying to convince me that I was not this is when I was young, I always thought I was invincible. |
| 0:47.0 | And I'm not Batman, I've realized, you know, my job is to fight for my culture and people that just aren't aware of, you know, their strength and self awareness. So I've renamed myself not Batman, I'm that man, you know, so my job is to be a superhero that fights for culture and independence. |
| 1:05.0 | But you know, a big thing about me is you can't help anybody unless you can help yourself. So I have to lead by example, you know, I mean, so my goal is for everyone to be that man or that woman, you know, and to showcase what that looks like. |
| 1:21.0 | You know, I have been the fight for narrative. Yeah, let's start there like how important is it for people watching like I hear everybody wants to save the whole world, they want to help their moms and pops and everybody, but like how important is it for the audience to take care of self first and get that really secure. |
| 1:39.0 | Well, you know, I have this thing, you know, I teach this class to principles from the old West, the old years 150 predominantly black principles all over the country, and I teach them an entrepreneurial class on two days, but we have one discussion. |
| 1:56.0 | And the one thing the first question I ask is what's your selfish dream, because you know, again, most of the I dream is everyone that have this and that, but you don't have so in order to help someone, you can't hurt yourself to help anybody to me, that's an oxymoron. |
| 2:18.0 | So you have to make so much money that you can help all the people that you love and that you're fighting for love, that should be a lot of people, but at the end of the day, it's about to me, figuring out what exactly your clear dream is. |
| 2:33.0 | And you know, I have a process, you know, I work in dimensions, so my first dimension is the dream and dreams don't cost a dollar, so why dream cheap, I don't want to dream to survive, I want to dream for the perfect world. So for example, you don't say, oh, I want it yet, but I'm worried about the gas, you don't worry about the gas in your dream. |
| 2:55.0 | I love that, but it has to be unobstructed, so sometimes you might dream around people and they're like, these are the reasons why you can't do it and blah, blah, blah, so then you start visualizing. |
| 3:07.0 | So that message that whole process up, so you have to also keep people around you that can drink or at least aren't going to obstruct choice. |
| 3:14.0 | After that, the next dimension is you got to put it on paper, you know, and you know, that's another dimension, you put it on paper and it's clear, you can write it down in a couple sentences and other people that have the same dream can also read identify with it and you'll find that, you know, you can come together. |
| 3:29.0 | And then the next dimension, making it actually happy. And then the last dimension now is in the metaverse and the multiverse. |
| 3:38.0 | It's always important to be one dimension ahead regardless of whether industry is right ready for it or not. It's just good to be happy at it. |
| 3:46.0 | So that's how I do things. And yeah, pardon, how important name is it like you have been around some people that have just like, I mean, cracks some superceiling, right. |
| 3:57.0 | And how important it, or you know, they're influenced on you or your influence on them. I don't know exactly which one influence the other or whether it was whether it was back and forth, right. |
| 4:08.0 | How important was it to be around those people that broke through for you to break through. |
| 4:13.0 | Well, I have to be around, I have to be inspired to work. So, you know, if someone inspires me. |
| 4:20.0 | And I have the potential to be great, you know, they've inspired me enough to teach them how to be great independently and how to understand how to leverage your own celebrity and understanding how to do things on your own, how effective that it also understanding residual income is and how to get that. |
| 4:38.0 | I always have to be inspired, but usually what I do is I give the game away. So most people that empower people like the Kanye or Jay Z or Lee Daniels or Rachel Roy, they don't teach them how to do it because you're no longer needing. |
| 4:53.0 | So I actually teach you how to fire me, how to get rid of me so that you can go make your dreams come true. And I could go do my thing because I got dreams. So, you know, being a person that helps other people with things. |
| 5:08.0 | And I think that definitely self was because you're investing in someone you're not investing completely in yourself. So my thing is let me make you independent. And you've inspired me enough to make sure you know how to keep you and your family rich without me, what you've seen just by reading the Forbes. |
