| 0:17.7 | All right, Thrive Nation, welcome back to the conversation. It is The Thrive Time Show |
| 0:22.3 | on your radio. We're talking about how to become the elephant in any room. Specifically, |
| 0:28.5 | we're talking about the 57 words of wisdom and mindsets you need to become a successful |
| 0:34.9 | person. Now, I want to make sure that all the listeners know where I came from. My name |
| 0:38.1 | is Clay Clark. I grew up in a family where we struggled financially from time to time. |
| 0:45.1 | My dad worked hard. My mom worked hard. I remember my dad was 37. I'm 37 now. I remember |
