Welcome to the rewire podcast. I'm your host, Ryan Stumann, and I'm here to rewire your mind for success.

You were put on this planet for success. You were created to succeed, but the force of average is after you every single day, my brothers and sisters.

And this podcast is the one thing that's designed to help you fight the force of average and excel in

every area of your life. We're glad that you're here. When you ask most people what success is,

they will give you a dollar amount. They'll tell you success is, you know, $10 million,

$5 million, $3 million, whatever. But the reality of it is success is not a dollar amount. Now, you might

procure a dollar amount because of success, but success is not a dollar amount. In my opinion,

I learned this from my pastor Keith Kraft. In my opinion, success is this. My wife respecting me, my kids respecting me,

and God happy with the work that I'm doing on this planet. That is success. There is no dollar

amount involved in there. Now, it does take me dollars amount to make sure that my wife respects me

because if I'm not working, if I'm not producing,

if I'm not doing anything, why would she respect me? I'm just going to be a lazy bum and

let our entire family fall to crumbles. How should she have respect for that? So there's a money

amount involved, but it's not a dollar amount. There's money involved, but it's not a dollar

amount. You see, I've got friends that don't make a whole lot of money, but they're not a dollar amount. There's money involved, but it's not a dollar amount. You see, I've got friends that don't make a

whole lot of money, but they are super successful. They have great marriages. They are debt free.

They own their home. They own their vehicles. And they're not baller rich. They're not, you know,

they might own a Honda Accord. They might own an F-150 paid for cash.

They might own a $300,000 house that they've lived in for 15 years and paid it off during this last recycling round with low interest rates.

But it's not about that.

I look at their success as they show up.

They're a responsible person.
