 You know what's something that's helped helped us a lot, and I want us to talk about real quick. We're about to do a a Skype call I want to say we're gonna I want to say we're gonna mentor Grant Cardone. That's not gonna happen We're actually doing a Skype call with Grant Cardone. We went to the tanks growth conference We were premier ticket holders and so we're able to do a Skype call with him this morning here in about 1050 minutes But what's cool is? Everyone's got someone that they look up to yep. You've had someone you look up to People I look up to you know whether it's in sports business that matter, you know Whether it's my father your father, you know mentors specifically Everyone needs someone to look up to to learn from to pattern after to follow to motivate them There's not a lot of people that motivate me because normally I don't need motivation You know I'm the opposite. I do love having that mentor to motivate me to Really make me grow my mind and he's just Crazy Naturally nuts and so yeah, and so I don't necessarily need Someone to hate waking up out of bed get me jacked up get me excited The enthusiasm is there like the excitement is there like I'm always jacked up. I'm always ready But I don't mean we can't learn, you know that don't mean we can't learn how to do cells and marketing and phone calls And telecells and field sale. There's so many. There's so many avenues. What's what I've learned over the last 14-15 months since the curage mentor has just freaking blown up is Never stop learning Everybody makes fun of Ty Lopez because he says knowledge is power and you know what yeah He's a little silly and you know what he talked to the growth con. I liked him. He was cool But once you start once you stop learning someone is gonna someone's gonna make more phone calls Someone's gonna know more someone's gonna pass you in your market I don't care if you're in the insurance leads space insurance marketing space insurance cell space or you're freaking selling cars the moment you stop improving You don't keep moving forward. You actually do the opposite. You start moving backwards. And so We put a lot of emphasis on growing Learning going to the growth con to learn people like Ty Lopez Andy for cella, you know Tim story all these different individuals Listen to audiobooks whether it be, you know crush it and crushing it by Gary V I know you're always reading and learning like that's important to us I think I think it helps people absolutely the moment you get complacent in your life Is the moment that you slow down and if you're not dreaming big and looking for the future and looking for the next big thing? Is when you are going to have set that so I just think learning and always staying ahead of the curve is What's really taken us to the next level and if you have a mentor who's not pushing you to be better Which is code great Cardona's Cody's mentor Elena would be mine in the marriage It just doesn't work like you have to have someone who's making you try to be better And that's what great Elena do for us. Yeah, because what happens is life happens If you aren't focused on thinking big writing down your goals. You're not Conscious of what's going on a day will pass a week will pass a month will pass and you would have had a Crappy year because you didn't freaking hone in and focus on what the freak you wanted to do and what you want to do I mean, it's already in the mid. We're five months into the year and people are still talking about what they want to do I'm sorry, but you should already have a set plan You should already be a quarter of the way to your goals if not making bigger goals to Get to where you want to be we talked about this last couple weeks. My goals have already changed twice Absolutely at least two or three times this year. It's starting to rep to you But he's not kidding when he writes down his goals every morning and every night. I'm convoked for that He has his book that he writes his goals down in every day and he puts the date with it So we can always look back and see like I wasn't thinking big enough I wasn't dreaming big enough dream big think ridiculous. Who cares if other people laugh at you. It's your goals It's what you want and what's really crazy is every goal. I've written down Over the last several years As big as I thought they were at the time They were actually too small because we've achieved them all so then I reevaluated myself a week week or two ago today Can I make it like? Way bigger because if I end up meeting my goals anyway I might as well write down something freaking stupid large to me and in reality It'll end up happening anyway So I think that's probably the biggest thing great Cardone has taught Cody as his mentor is to dream big and to always look for Bigger goals. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I mean what's cool is I've had two people in my life that have like challenged me and My first is my father because he says he says don't let from an early age He always says hey, don't let anyone outwork you ever. This is true And then You know the mindset the cell is just thinking bigger And so when I put those two together and I think big and I freaking work at it Dude, I mean, it's it's amazing where you can go. It's cool I didn't know who great Elena were until Cody and I started dating and Elena helped me learn how to be a better wife Cuz I I mean he's making these crazy goals and you have to take risks to get to these crazy goals And I felt like I was holding him back, but Elena helped me realize that if I'm not I'm bored with his goals It's not gonna work. So I feel like our life changed that Once we became a team. Yeah, huge. Yeah, especially. Yeah, so find someone you can pattern after I've been able to be that for some agents in the business and I'm freaking pleased that I can be there's other people that can challenge you Help you grow find those individuals and never stop and proven.
