You know, every time my grandkids come to the house and spend the night, we get up the next morning we eat breakfast and we go around the table and I ask them "What are you grateful for today? What is something good in your life?" And they have the cutest little comments. Things that they're so excited about. When we start the mastermind group meetings every single day the first thing we talk about is our wins. Every Monday morning 9 o'clock, our whole team meets virtually on Zoom, first thing we do is give us your wins. Where are you killing it? Where are you crushing it? It helps develop our attitude every morning.
I got a message this morning for a few you. There are not many in this community that does this, I know, I'm not talking to the majority of you but I am talking to a few of you. Man, we got some complainers in the world. We got some people that are unhappy, ungrateful, unthankful, that are always looking for something to complain about. Well, let me tell you the reason I titled this "Being a constant complainer could be costing you a fortune" - nobody wants to be around you!
I'm just being honest with you. There are private conversations going on right now behind your back, with your friends that go like "We are not going to invite him to the party, he's not going to be on the board of directors, there's no way I would ever invite that guy to be a part of our business or to be on our team" because you gripe non-stop you're always complaining about something.

I'm reading a great book right now called "The Talent Code". There are a couple of guys in our mastermind group that recommended this book. I started thinking back about these guys in their history, their work history, their work ethic. These guys are off the chart! I mean, they have seven-figure businesses! They've been very successful throughout. Life has been successful and all the things that they've done personally and I started thinking, "Man, I might order and check this book out!" So now we bought a copy for everybody in our mastermind group. We're taking 130 guys through The Talent Code and what The Talent Code is about, is DEEP PRACTICE. It builds myelin in your brain. These neural pathways help us understand how to do the deep work and how to stay on task with doing the things that we need to do and it's through this deep practice.

Listen, do you know how tough it is to come up with the money for your taxes and those huge expenses in your company?
For years I've even maybe decades I didn't have a good system for that. Well about a year and a half ago I was introduced to Profit First, Mike Michalowicz and I want to tell you just to be totally honest, don't tell Mike I said this, but I thought it was some kind of hoax or scam or something you know. I've like I'm skeptical about that kind of stuff until I start really digging in. Well, we read the book in the mastermind group together, it's called Profit First and I'm going to tell you, even after reading the book I thought now I'm not sure how much merit I'm gonna put into this thing. How much validity is really there till a lot of the guys started saying, "Now we're gonna do this." And I'll tell you, I can't even begin to tell you how many guys in the mastermind have implemented that strategy into their business.

Stop shutting down someone else's story/moment. I just want to encourage to let people's story be their story. Be genuinely interested to their story. Listen to their story. Doing so, you will become a real friend.

Guys, if you got kids today or teenagers who have gone astray, I'd like to encourage you to do what my friend did. Constantly tell them how much you love them regardless what they have done. We do not need to give up easily as parents. We need to do every single thing that we could possibly do in our human ability in order to win that child back!
