I would have to say, be around people that are like that, that have the millions or have the things and are like that, and ask them questions or ask them what books they're reading, or if they worked with a coach or a therapist or somebody, who are the people that are putting stuff into their brains, or who programmed their brains to think this way.”   "I think sometimes when people get stuck in the suck, it's because they get so focused on a certain goal and they kind of lose track of what the overall vision is.”   “They get so focused on success that they feel kind of like when they reach something is whenever they're going to go back and focus on those other aspects of their life. But it all needs the ‘focus.’ Like you got to work on little bits of all those pieces all the time."   “If you want a happy marriage, make sure you have friends who have happy marriages. Period. That's it. If you want a successful business where you love what you're doing, be around people who have successful businesses, who love what they're doing.”   “It's okay to hit the delete key on things that aren't working for you, whether that be alcohol, whether that be friends, or whether it be a book you got three quarters of the way through and you're like, this thing sucks. Delete, right? And editing as you go along 'cause like if you're gonna design the thing, you're not gonna get it right the first time. You gotta keep editing.”
