0:00.0 | And I just learned to exist on who I was and I was going to make my weaknesses strengths, |
0:04.8 | but you have to know what your weaknesses are in order to turn them into strength. |
0:10.0 | This is the paper. I believe to be productive, there's all these efficiencies, effectiveness, |
0:14.8 | and statistical success of time. I wrote my book originally that there's 64 hours of |
0:19.8 | production you can have in a day. Most people work eight hours. If I can teach you to be twice as |
0:24.0 | efficient, you have 16 hours of productivity. If I can teach you to be twice as effective, |
0:29.5 | you now have 32 hours of productivity. If I can teach you to be twice as statistically successful, |
0:34.0 | you now have 64 hours of productivity. I know in a day, an eight hour day, I'm getting eight times |
0:39.5 | amount of productivity. When they list out all those awards and businesses I own and TV shows and |
0:44.5 | everything, I'm just beating you a time. I'm going to challenge myself to be twice as efficient. |

1:12.4 | Now, most people say, well, do 20. Well, I figured I was half as good. I use a little bit of radical |
1:18.1 | humility and realization because I learned that in football. Yeah. Right. I just learned to exist |
1:23.3 | on who I was and I was going to make my weaknesses strengths, but you have to know what your weaknesses |
1:28.3 | are in order to turn them into strengths on the field, on the court or off the field. So I said, |
1:33.3 | all right, I'm going to do 40. I'm going to do 40 appointments and I'm going to close half as many |
1:39.0 | as the average guy, which will make me twice as successful. So my 32 hours of productivity became |
1:45.0 | 64 hours of productivity day. That's eight hours times eight. Every day that I worked was eight days, |
1:53.0 | times seven days, not five, because I wasn't married with kids and I didn't have a house in |
