Summary

Advice? Just shut up and listen. Today, Alex (@AlexHormozi) talks about the two pivotal moments in his life when he truly felt like he received a high ROI on his decisions and shares the importance of educating yourself and continuing to improve your skills.

Welcome to The Game Podcast where we talk about how to get more customers, make more profit per customer, and keep them longer, and the many failures and lessons we have learned along the way to $100M in sales. We've got roll-up-your-sleeves kind of hustle with a little bit of cleverness and a lot of heart.

Timestamps:

(3:31) - One of the most pivotal moments in Alex’s life was when he was told “I don’t think you should be running gyms. I think you should be teaching people how to run gyms”

(4:40) - The 3C’s: Clarity, Conviction, and Community

(7:49) - After Alex presented at the mastermind, many people in the room were shocked by how much potential his business had. He was told “you need to scale up extremely fast or someone is gonna take everything from you and claim it for their own”

(11:32) - Just because you don’t see immediately see the ROI of paying to learn or get exposure doesn’t mean that you didn’t build another link to the chain

(14:05) - If you can go into that perspective and always continue to invest, especially in proximity, to learning from people who are doing better than you, you’ll thank yourself in the future for that

(15:43) - Place yourself in rooms where you feel like you don’t deserve to be there. Be in awe of the others, keep your mouth shut and just listen to what they have to say
