Welcome to Darren Daily on demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better every day.

Here's your success mentor Darren Hardy.

I want you to do me in favor.

Please tell me I can't do something.

Really, I love it.

It totally pisses me off, thus fires me up.

It's the best form of motivation for me. I can trace most of my success

back to someone who said I couldn't do something. It was their voice that played in my head

during the grinding and painful periods it took to make a success

out of whatever it was that I was pursuing.

If you read in my book, The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster, about the junior high English teacher that said

Ah ha ha!

Sweet revenge!

I remember when I decided to leave the real estate business to start my own marketing and

advertising company in San Francisco.

that I owe a great deal of my success to thereafter.
