Hey guys, real quick. So Layland, I are definitely working on our social media presence if you guys haven't noticed and we're just breaking now into linked in.

Alright, it's not as bad as I thought. It's actually been pretty awesome so far and you guys have been really cool in there and people are sharing our stuff a lot.

So if we aren't connected on LinkedIn, go ahead and let's connect and let's rock and roll.

That everyone wishes for the American Dream and roots for you for the American Dream until it comes true.

Welcome to the game where we talk about how to get more customers, how to make more

customers, how to keep them longer and the many failures and lessons we have learned along the way.

Hope you enjoy and subscribe.

What's going on everyone? Happy Saturday today.

I wanted to make this podcast for you because I got off the phone with Edterney and he and I had a long conversation about a wide breath of topics and he was like,

dude, you should talk more about this kind of stuff.

And so what I want to do is actually share with you kind of my experience of having the chip on my shoulder and kind of where it got me and what I learned in the process.

And so if you have any kind of like thoughts around like trying to beat someone and like, like, you're going to take these guys down and like all this stuff and I know many, many people in this space, you know, fill that way towards me.

I can tell you having literally gone through the entire process.

It's really interesting. So like when I had my gyms, I wrote this huge essay and it was for myself because I actually have a creative writing background that most people don't know about.

But I entitled it that everyone wishes for the American Dream and roots for you for the American Dream until it comes true.

And I felt that way with my clients. You know, they were rooting for me when I was sleeping on the floor. They're like, good for you.

Like, pursue your dreams. But as time went on, you know, and I started to be able to hire people and we started making more money.

And eventually I didn't have to work in the business. They're like, oh, you're too good for us now. Like, oh, a big businessman, right?

And everyone roots for you until you do better than them.

And so what ends up happening is that you have to set higher and higher goals for yourself to drive yourself, right?

And for me, I definitely was an angrier person or maybe I'm just better at hiding it now. I have no idea.

But I was definitely angrier about stuff. And I set this goal that I was going to beat Badros.
