I do want to tell you about something that I think could really help you - there are two main culprits that can destroy your future success. One is ISOLATION and the other one is SELF-DOUBT. The reason it matters today is that we were designed to be in the community. We weren't designed to be alone, we're designed to be around a lot of people.
I've discovered that when you're around other people, it really eliminates loneliness and low self-esteem. Oftentimes, we have social anxiety, and being around other people eliminates a lot of that. Listen, I've worked with a lot of people for a lot of years and I do understand the value of being in a community, being around other people.

We now live in a society today that is absolutely taken over with fear and insecurity. I want to talk to you about that just for a second. Listen, fear's not necessarily a bad thing. It was created to help protect us to some degree, now we shouldn't crawl underneath our desk in a fetal position and be afraid all the time. There's a certain level of fear that's healthy!
Through the course of my career for 42 years, there's been an element of fear and insecurity - depending on the circumstances and the situations that you're placed in but one of the things that I have found that has increased my fear and insecurity is my willingness to go it alone, to be independent.
The truth is we all need each other! That's where the success happens, is when we get involved in interdependence. We can take our lives and our business to the next level!

I was thinking yesterday in a meeting that I was in some of the things that we've done in our business that has helped us immensely but I got to tell you straight out of the gate, I got to give the credit where the credit is due - John Lee Dumas taught me something he doesn't even know that he taught me this but years ago!

I took off October, November and December from doing Facebook lives. Some of the reasons is that I just couldn't handle all the noise! It was driving me out of my mind! All of this social injustice and this political stuff that was going on, the bantering back and forth. I'm like, “oh my gosh, I gotta take a break! This is getting to me! So I set it aside. I didn't go anywhere. It's just that I could not handle all of that confusion!
Now, let me talk. about our VALUES....

It is important prioritizing our priorities. One of the things that I want to talk to you about is making sure that what you say aligns with what you do.
Guys say the things that are important to them, they start talking about how my family's the most yet they spend very little time with them. It's like they'll spend 12 14 hours a day at work and then they come home and they're too tired to do anything and they don't have meaningful conversations with their spouse. They can't play baseball with Billy because it's probably dark outside but now and they got to send one more email or get this other thing. I'm not I'm not dogging on you. I'm not saying that those things are not important and you shouldn't do those things but the truth is, if you say it's important then we need to allocate some time towards making sure that you have time to pitch the ball with Billy or go to Susie's recital or spend time with your wife out on the patio talking about things in your life that you really want and the things that you want to accomplish.
