In this "Lessons" episode, Grant Cardone, real estate mogul and sales expert, challenges the mindset of scarcity and comfort that keeps people trapped in financial mediocrity. He shares his approach to raising financially confident kids by removing distractions, taking full responsibility for their education, and introducing them to work and investing early on.

He explains how most people have unknowingly given up on becoming wealthy because they've been programmed to believe it’s unattainable, and how choosing discomfort over comfort is the only path to true financial freedom and generational change.

Drawing from years of teaching and study, Dennis reflects on wrestling with God, the role of gratitude in belief, and why viewing existence itself as a miracle can profoundly shift how we live and lead.

In this 'Lessons' episode, I'll prove that your identity is the main thing preventing your success. The career advice you've been following—"know yourself," "find your authentic voice," "stay true to who you are"—is systematically destroying your potential.

I'll show you why the most successful people in history had no fixed identity at all, and exactly how to stop being someone so you can start becoming anyone the situation demands.
