Making Of A DM

When I moved into my apartment, I didn't have gas or electricity. That meant no hot showers — I was taking cold showers before it was cool! The apartment was so small, I could take an ice cold shower, warm up a frozen tv dinner, and use the toilet at the exact same time. Now I own 3 Rolls Royces, multiple mansions, I spoil my wife and kids with first class trips to Europe, and I also own a jet (an...

While all the gurus on Instagram like to pound their chest about "being busy"... They never post the true reason why somebody's a millionaire — or billionaire: Urgency. Simple? Yes.  Easy? Hell no. The reason why these gurus don't talk about it is because it's not sexy. It's not cool. And you'll never see these gurus post about it on their social media.  But it's the bedrock behind my success, and...

95% of Americans buy into the myth that it takes 10,000 hours to master a skill. Sorry to break it to you, but that's complete bull. They mistakenly think all you need is hard work, grit, determination, and "hustle" in order to achieve a breakthrough. They burn the midnight oil, wasting countless days of their life, skipping breakfast with their family, only to burn out and quit. How do you avoid...

Most people won't have a 2023 that's filled with wealth, happiness, and growth. Why? Because they're working on the wrong things. Pulling the wrong levers. And they'll wind up working twice as hard for half the amount of money.  That's not gonna be me though. And if you listen to this episode, it's not gonna be you either.  In this episode, I reveal my 12 north star goals for 2023, so you can choo...

Most entrepreneurs are "playing business." They're shuffling papers, installing new CRMs, and making sure their website looks slick and fancy. They're always "busy," never have time to make sales, and their life is in total disarray. The end result?  They've got $100 to their name. Meanwhile, the people with millions to their name are crushing it. They're constantly growing their business, and pul...

What's the difference between $100,000 per month and $1,000,000 per month?  How you spend your time! Most entrepreneurs pretend they're flooded with work. In reality, they're scrolling on instagram, checking out their emails, and hanging out with their friends all day. This false sense of being "busy" distracts them from escaping the grind, and unlocking precious moments with their children. In to...

Entrepreneurs are selfish. What do I get for showing up? How can I benefit from giving? This is BS thinking. You see, the number 1 way to get anything you want in life is giving.  It's amazing what can happen in life with 1 connection, 1 relationship, or 1 action. Better relationships, multi-generational wealth, and a greater connection with your kids. It's all based on serving your fellow man. In...

Everyone in the media, business circles, and the real estate community is plastered with fear.  In short, everyone is retracting from business, real estate, the market, and becoming filthy stinkin' rich. But while everybody's panicking, and the so-called chips are down, there's never been a better opportunity to push forward: Work more hours. Network with more people. Establish your position as an...

Almost every business owner I talk to is frustrated, overwhelmed, and on the verge of a mental breakdown.  Why?  They work 80+ hour weeks and have nothing to show for it. They do everything they can to stay "busy," because they don't realize being busy mutilates their sales.  That's the bad news.  The good news?  In this episode, I reveal how to get more accomplished in one day than most do in a w...

I have a confession…  I never bought my Ferrari, my Rolls Royces, my G-Wag, or ANY of my houses. No, I didn't rent them either, but I also didn't buy them.  You know who bought them?  Other people — they just don't realize it.  How?  Well, years ago, I had a business epiphany: I discovered how to turn my liabilities into assets. This "skill" has helped me get whatever I want and have other people...

Most entrepreneurs feel enslaved to the "feast and famine" aspects of their businesses. They may make $50,000 one month, then a measly $3,000 the next month. Huge upswings always lead to massive downswings.  But it doesn't have to be this way. I used to feel the full brunt of feasting and fasting in my businesses. Until I made one simple tweak—so simple a 3rd grader could do it—that tripled my bus...

Entrepreneurship is a lonely path. Most entrepreneurs outgrow their family and friends. And when you try to help your loved ones succeed, they may hear a completely different message than you intended.  This recently happened to me and my family for the first time ever. And even though I lost some sleep at first, I'm excited now. Because it means they're finally ready to listen to my message.  In...

I just got off the phone with my fiduciaries and accountants, and I have three months to deploy over $5 million in opportunities.  But I'm not just giving away this money to any average Joe. I'm only looking to invest in a few industries, and I only want to connect with real players. But if you listen to this show, you're probably more qualified than you think.  In this episode, I reveal who and w...

Every 8-figure, 9-figure, and 10-figure business owner I've met has one thing in common:  They leverage the 9th Wonder Of The World to make millions of dollars per year, per month, and even per week.  The best part is everyone can tap into the 9th Wonder Of The World to grow their income at breakneck speed. You won't start out making billions, but you will get there if you stick with it.  So, what...

Most people have NO idea how to set goals. They listen to popular goal setting advice from people less successful than they want to be and trap themselves in mediocrity.  Well, if you've been making that mistake, it ends today. Because here's a counterintuitive truth:  You should have no idea how to accomplish your goals. When you set massive goals you have no clue how to accomplish, you'll live a...

Your thoughts control everything: They can either unlock mountains of wealth, create unlimited freedom, and make you the happiest person alive. Or they can keep you trapped in a mediocre life where your bills drown you and misery encompasses you.  The cold, hard truth is that most people let their thoughts steal their wealth, their joy, and their freedom. But it doesn't have to be this way. In fac...

I took my LAST vacation on December 31st, 2005. Why haven't I gone on vacation in 17 years? Because I've built a business that lets me travel whenever and wherever I want.  Too often, business owners let their business enslave them instead of them controlling their business. The result? You sabotage your happiness for your business.  That's no way to live. In this episode, you'll discover how you...

And now I'm sharing it with you. ...

But the truth is: Many of the wealthiest, most successful people emerged from recessions, depressions and other tou...

Most people tell themselves they want success, wealth and legacy, but never take action. They sit around, pretend they'll transform their lives and only realize they wasted their potential when they're old and gray. But that doesn't have to be you. If you ask the right questions, reflect on them and take massive action, you can have anything you want in life. In this episode, you'll discover a sim...
