This week's conversation is with entrepreneur Daymond John on the power of clarity, vision, and imagery.
From street hustle -- to Shark Tank to being a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship, he has become globally recognized for his relentless commitment to promoting and supporting entrepreneurs.
Daymond initially made his mark as the entrepreneur and branding expert behind the groundbreaking lifestyle brand, FUBU (which eclipsed more than $6 billion in global retail sales).
He started a global brand from the basement of his mother’s house.
Today, the streetwear market that FUBU pioneered is a $20 billion dollar industry.
In this conversation we discuss what has been the driving force behind Daymond’s success, his process for setting goals, and why having clarity is so important to him.
In every single of these conversations I ask the guest if they have a guiding philosophy that shapes their life.
Daymond likes to ask people if they can describe themselves in 2-5 words. When you’re able to be that concise, it leads to some serious clarity.
In Daymond’s words: “If you don’t know what you stand for, when you walk into a room, you leave it up to us to interpret who you are.”

0:12.1 | many people have to wonder what their two to |
0:14.6 | five words are. And I would say to them, well if you don't know what you stand for |
0:18.4 | when you walk into a room, you leave it up to us to interpret who you are. And many people really don't know who they are because |
0:25.6 | they've been living so much to be somebody else for somebody else. All right. Welcome back or welcome to the finding mastery podcast. I'm Michael Jervay. By trade and training, I'm a high-performance psychologist, which means that I spend time understanding the science and the art of helping people train their minds to become their very best. |
0:54.0 | And the idea behind these podcasts, these conversations, |
0:58.0 | is to extend that learning to learn from people who are on the path of mastery |
1:01.0 | to better understand what they're searching for, |
1:04.4 | and to understand their psychological framework, how they understand themselves, the world, |
1:08.8 | events, and then how they see themselves playing a role in becoming their very best. |
1:14.8 | And part of that process is understanding the mental skills that they've used to build and |
1:18.6 | refine their craft. |
1:20.7 | Finding Mastery is brought to you by Natural Stax. Your brain is one of the hungriest organs in your body. |

1:31.0 | That means an important factor between the days you feel sluggish and the days |
1:34.8 | that you feel sharp is how fuel efficient your brain is. And that's why I'm excited to |
1:40.2 | be partnered with natural stacks. They've got a product. They're dopamine |
