Summary

In today's episode, I join Kagiso Dikane, host of The Code to Winning podcast, at Solar Con. We explore my journey from law school to the tech industry, including my time as CEO of Samsung's first phone division and working with Lee Steinberg. I discuss the importance of showing up, paying attention, and giving intention. Discover the power of productivity through the power of 64 (how I achieve 64 hours of productivity in a day) and my transition from the world of "not enough" to "more than enough." We also emphasize staying ahead of the curve, building habits, and the significance of kindness.
