Summary

Let's be honest.........

What you want is not about Money.

You tell yourself that, but that's only because the media and our societal programming has taught you that's what "it is" about.

If you didn't have to do what you do for money tomorrow, or found an easier way, would you do it?

You can't catch one rabbit when you're chasing 2.

Lean in and listen.

0:00.0	Welcome to the rewire podcast.
0:02.0	I'm your host, Ryan Stumann,
0:04.0	and I'm here to rewire your mind for success.
0:07.0	You were put on this planet for success.
0:09.0	You were created to succeed,
0:11.0	but the force of average is after you every single day,
0:14.0	my brothers and sisters,
0:16.0	and this podcast is the one thing that's designed
0:19.0	to help you fight the force of average and excel in
0:21.8	every area of your life. We're glad that you're here. When I became an entrepreneur,
0:28.1	it wasn't about making money. It's still not. Don't get me wrong. I love money. It's an important
0:32.5	part of life. I mean, we need it for everything but air. But that was never the goal for me.
0:37.7	I'm not really a fancy guy in the sense of, I tried that fancy stuff. It wasn't for me. I would rather be on a tractor mowing the yard than at a car show in a Lamborghini. And that's just me. I'm not knocking Lamborghinies. They're amazing cars, beautiful. I've had five or seven of them. Great vehicles. I'm just saying, I lost track. Sometimes we get caught up in the business of business that we forget our business. I get caught up and, you know, hey, you know, now that I have more money, I should buy a cooler car, now they have more money, I should fly private, now they have more money, I should buy a nicer watch, now they have more money. I should get a bigger house. Now they have more money. This is the trap people fall into.
1:14.9	And then downturns come, shifts, rule changes. I had a friend one time doing two billion dollars a

1:25.2	Two billion dollars a year to nothing. Nothing he could fucking do about it. When Theranos got busted, his company was a supplier to that and
1:32.1	went down. Overnight, nobody saw it coming. Then the guy was sued into oblivion by drug companies
1:38.2	because they had, dude, I could tell you so much about the backstory and why that chick's really
1:43.1	in prison. It's unreal,
1:44.3	but that's not what this is about. What this is about is I got into being a entrepreneur because
1:50.1	I wanted to be free. I don't figure I'm going to make money doing anything, whether I knock doors and
1:55.4	sell roofs or software or if I've proven myself that I can sell and make money from anything.
