1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:15,920 Hey guys, welcome back to the Homework Assignment Podcast. 2 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:21,680 I'm your host, RJ Patino, and yet again, we are going to talk about things that we need 3 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:27,460 to do on a daily basis to be able to balance our home life and our work life. 4 00:00:27,460 --> 00:00:32,120 We missed a few weeks of recording, which I apologize to all of you who look forward 5 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,800 to our podcast. 6 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:39,440 We had a lot of things going on and I learned a valuable lesson that podcasting definitely 7 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:44,440 takes time and it takes dedication and it definitely needs to be a priority or else 8 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,240 it's going to get lost in all the chaos. 9 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,960 So with those adjustments that are being made to ensure that we do record, we're going to 10 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:59,080 make sure to have a recording every single week, post new content weekly, if not more 11 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:04,040 if we can, to be able to provide everything that you guys are looking for in the education 12 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:09,120 part of business and just following our experiences and all the people we're going to be interviewing. 13 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,040 So I kind of just wanted to give you guys a recap of the last couple of weeks. 14 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:19,520 It's been outrageously insane the last few, two weeks because we had a couple of cool 15 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,740 things going on. 16 00:01:21,740 --> 00:01:26,400 Number one, I've been out of town due to jobs and stuff and building some relationships 17 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,880 with some clients that's panning out and that is fantastic. 18 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,520 Which to touch base on that sometimes in business at least we have to do things to establish 19 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,200 a relationship and I've done that a few times. 20 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,720 I've done a few things where people needed some last minute things that maybe I don't 21 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,400 do on a normal basis. 22 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:48,520 That's either smaller than what I usually do or maybe something special that I've never 23 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:53,240 done and I've gone out of my way to accomplish these things for certain clients that I wanted 24 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:59,360 to build a relationship with and that's led into a great relationship, work that I actually 25 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,460 do and has built a trust with the client. 26 00:02:02,460 --> 00:02:06,240 So don't be afraid to take that leap if it's something like hey I don't normally do this 27 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:11,600 or this is too small of a project, whatever the case is, jump into it if you believe that 28 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,440 relationship has potential and you have the vision to be able to see that. 29 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:23,080 Apart from that we had an amazing opportunity to be part of a contractor coalition summit 30 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:34,160 hosted by AFT, Brad Levitt and NS Builders as well as Contractor to Style, Construction to Style. 31 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,840 They hosted an amazing event, it was in Austin Texas so it was fantastic. 32 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,520 We actually did something a little fun because it was my birthday over this last Friday so 33 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:47,160 I dragged my wife and my daughters with me so instead of flying from Phoenix to Austin 34 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:52,520 we thought it would be fun to go to Vegas, hop on a flight there so went to Vegas, missed 35 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,520 my flight and so we ended up having a stay a day in Vegas and made the best of it, we 36 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:02,720 had a bunch of fun and went the next morning, made our flight but that ended us up a little 37 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,240 bit late to the summit which is totally fine. 38 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:14,800 We still learned a ton of stuff, made some great relationships and built you know just great knowledge 39 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,200 and relationships that are going to help propel our company forward. 40 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,160 For those of you that don't know because I'm not sure if I ever talked about it, the vision 41 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:32,040 here at Elder Contracting is to provide a luxurious experience while building a dream 42 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:39,680 home or bringing a dream to life specifically in new construction and remodeling, renovating. 43 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:44,200 For me it's been really important to establish these relationships not just with other local 44 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,480 companies but companies from all over the nation, some of the top builders, top performing 45 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:54,080 companies and be able to establish relationships and learn what they're doing in their company, 46 00:03:54,080 --> 00:04:01,840 their structure, how they're being able to provide that A plus experience to their customers 47 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,400 and this summit allowed me to do that so it was fantastic. 48 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,880 Like I said I met a lot of great people and I learned a lot of great things and it's interesting 49 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,320 to see like oh, you know they present something and you're like oh you know what I've been doing 50 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,920 that, that's what it's called? 51 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,560 Okay fantastic, no wonder it's working and now that you recognize it and know it you're 52 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:25,480 able to dive into it deeper and take out all the kinks and make it even perform even better. 53 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:32,800 So it was fantastic and I didn't have a certain topic I was going to talk about today but 54 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,880 I just wanted to get on here and wanted to talk and wanted to be able to provide and 55 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,720 dedicate myself to the podcast and so I just wanted to share a little bit of the things 56 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:44,080 that I've learned and some of the insights that took place in my head while listening 57 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:50,240 to some of these amazing people who built these companies over several years and became 58 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,180 some of the best in the nation. 59 00:04:53,180 --> 00:05:03,120 One of the things that really graphs me is that just like we've talked about before, 60 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:08,800 the life that we live can get very crazy and so it's really important to have time to yourself. 61 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,000 The last couple months if not longer I've been going through a little bit of a headspin 62 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:22,080 to where things haven't gone necessarily the way I wanted it to and we've all faced disappointment 63 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:29,240 and sometimes especially in my position which I may be speaking for many people, sometimes 64 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,440 I can feel like I have the world weighted on my shoulders. 65 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,600 When you're an entrepreneur, you own a company, you have a lot of people that rely on you, 66 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,280 not only your clients rely on you but so do your employees and the people who work for 67 00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:45,560 you and sometimes that can be a lot of weight to hold and if you don't find a way to release 68 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,240 that it builds up, it builds up and then when things go wrong or things don't go as planned 69 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,600 on a day which is a daily occurrence, things never go the way we want it to, sometimes 70 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,320 things will go good but there's always problems and there was a podcast a while ago we talked 71 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:02,040 about expecting the unexpected and so even with that mindset, if you let these things 72 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,240 build up and this weight really just grow over time, it's going to come down to a point 73 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:12,560 where you're just having a day and something doesn't go right, that weight just crushes 74 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:19,160 you and that is a normal occurrence to a lot of people. 75 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,400 And in this industry that I'm in, in entrepreneurship in general and so it's really important to 76 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:28,320 take that time and be able to clear your mind and so some of the changes that we're making 77 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,800 especially in our work life is we're adjusting our hours of operation, we're adjusting our 78 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:39,020 hours of communication with our clients so that we can dedicate after hours and weekends 79 00:06:39,020 --> 00:06:43,160 to ourselves to rejuvenate, to spend time with our family and be able to balance that 80 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,160 a little bit more. 81 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,640 So that was kind of one of the cool lessons that I learned is that I hear this all the 82 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:52,120 time like hey you need to hustle, you need to do this, it's nonstop 24-7 and it is. 83 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:58,760 The mindset never dies, the hunger never dies but you have to take time to rebalance yourself, 84 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,080 to rejuvenate and gain that energy that you need. 85 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,880 If you just go, go, go, go, go and you're not taking care of yourself, at some point 86 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,640 you're going to collapse and when that collapse happens, it could be a career ending collapse, 87 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:16,640 it could be even a life ending collapse and so take that time for yourselves. Okay. 88 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:21,920 It's okay to understand that hey, I may not be working in this moment, I may be sitting 89 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:26,160 on the couch talking to my wife, I may be playing with my kids, I may be out at Disneyland 90 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,320 for a vacation, it's okay to do that. 91 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,920 Take the time that you need because nothing's going anywhere and you're going to be able 92 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:37,200 to operate at a higher capacity, you're going to be able to operate better by taking that 93 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,960 time for yourself and I do think that's one of the big misconceptions in entrepreneurship 94 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:48,360 or the hustle in general is that people, they think the minute that you stop, you're not 95 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,240 dedicated, don't feel that way. 96 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,280 It's okay to be dedicated to your work as well as your home life and yourself so you 97 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:59,520 can perform better and you can be at your A game, your peak 24-7 for the people that 98 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,440 you're surrounding yourself with, the people that you're providing for, the people that 99 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,920 you're working with that are collaborating with you, right? 100 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:12,800 So take that time, take a deep breath, breathe and be able to spend the time that you need 101 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,800 to focus on yourself. 102 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:23,480 Thinking about that, I know we interviewed Blake on our last podcast and I remember talking 103 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,600 to him and asking him like hey, why do you get up at 3 AM and he said hey, those hours 104 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:32,440 are for me because after a certain time in the day, everybody's calling me, the world 105 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:37,720 needs me and so whatever works for you guys, find that time, definitely readjust yourself, 106 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:42,480 center yourself and get a good ground so that you can start explosive every single day and 107 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,040 it's going to be different for everybody, right? 108 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:55,760 Another important lesson that I learned was that you're never, how do I put this, don't 109 00:08:55,760 --> 00:09:06,000 let your feeling of not being big enough, good enough or being able to provide enough, 110 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,880 hold you back from going where you want to go. 111 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:13,800 So it's been interesting for me because we've jumped into a couple of coaching programs 112 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:20,080 over this last year and the programs that we've been a part of, we're a very blessed 113 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:26,880 company, I think we're more blessed than we deserve because we just keep growing even 114 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,400 through all the mistakes we're making, there's just something we're doing right and it may 115 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:38,560 just be the pure you know love of Christ that's kind of carrying us along but we've been blessed 116 00:09:38,560 --> 00:09:44,440 to be a decent sized company and have a decent amount of revenue coming in and so we're a 117 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:49,280 little bit bigger than some of the companies that have been a part of these coaching programs 118 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:54,880 that we're in and so it's been interesting to be there, be in that position and listen 119 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:59,920 to things being taught and then it's awesome to go to like this seminar I went to and be 120 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:03,960 the smallest company there, be the company that's doing the least amount of revenue, 121 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:09,360 be the company that's maybe even been in business the least amount of time and have the least 122 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:15,400 amount of employees and so that's, I'm not going to say it was a humbling experience, 123 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:21,120 you know what I will because the knowledge definitely was, I mean I don't ever, we never, I don't 124 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,120 think anybody on our team is very boastful and prideful about where we are, we're all 125 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,520 very grateful and understand that we make a lot of mistakes and we're still learning 126 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,080 a ton but it definitely was an interesting experience to be surrounded by these people 127 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:39,480 that are 10 times bigger, that have spent so much more time or have done it right and 128 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:45,320 made less mistakes because they learned the right way to do it before they started and 129 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:51,000 kind of be in that environment and it made me feel like oh man I'm inadequate, like what 130 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,960 am I doing here, should I even be here, like why was I invited, why did I qualify to come 131 00:10:54,960 --> 00:11:01,640 to the summit and one of the things I learned is that you know what, we may have been the 132 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:08,120 smallest but we're not too, we're not, we're enough to go where we want to go and so one 133 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,240 of the biggest takes that I had from that was that you know I've had this plan of going 134 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:17,880 a certain way in my company and in my life and my career and I always thought I was a 135 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:22,280 little bit further away than how I felt at this conference, I felt like you know what, 136 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,800 it's going to be a step by step process which it is but I felt like I had a hundred steps 137 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,880 to get to where I needed to go and this made me realize no, I can go, I can do this now, 138 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:39,520 I can dive into this now and so I think you know taking that and looking back, I can pinpoint 139 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:46,960 exact moments where I did feel inadequate, I felt inadequate with what I was doing in 140 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,960 my life, I felt inadequate myself, I asked my questions, can I do this, am I equipped 141 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,960 for this, did they choose the right person, did my clients choose the right contractor, 142 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,760 I know I felt that a ton and I still feel that when I get jobs that are bigger than 143 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,360 my you know my biggest job that we've ever done, we're you know about to sign on one 144 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:11,560 right now and it's like okay, big property, you know 7,000 square feet, you know we're 145 00:12:11,560 --> 00:12:17,720 going to do an addition and it's like you know this, you know and can I provide my client 146 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:22,880 the experience they're paying us for right and it's all talk until you're actually in 147 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:31,680 the situation and the answer to that is yes, you can, we can and that little voice in our 148 00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:36,560 head that's telling us we're not good enough or inadequate, that voice is nothing but negative 149 00:12:36,560 --> 00:12:41,720 and we need to fight that because if we don't, we miss all these amazing opportunities and 150 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,720 we've all succumbed to this in our life, we've all been a victim to that voice in our head 151 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:51,160 that says hey, you can't do this, this isn't going to work, you're not good enough or even 152 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,760 maybe a little bit less negative like hey, you just got to wait a little bit longer. 153 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,080 Like I said, I was feeling like oh, I have a hundred more steps, you know I've been making 154 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:03,040 progress but we're just not there quite yet when in reality, I am there, it's time to 155 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,040 go now. 156 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,040 So like what was holding back? 157 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:06,040 What was that feeling of inadequacy? 158 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:12,280 Was that feeling that you know I don't have this system just right or you know what, because 159 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:18,720 of this one thing, I may not be able to provide the best experience for my client and in reality, 160 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:23,480 I have all the tools, I have all the resources and I have all the wit and the grit to be 161 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:29,120 able to get what I need to get done and provide that for my client and that pressure, that 162 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,920 anxiety, that comes with the territory, right? 163 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:36,400 And so it's easy to also mistake that for the same thing, that little voice in your 164 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,800 head that tells you you're not good enough just because you're feeling the anxiety of 165 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:49,240 something unknown, something new, the nervousness and the feeling of inadequacy, that's always 166 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,040 going to come time and time again as you go bigger and bigger and bigger and you grow 167 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,400 and grow and grow. 168 00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:01,480 I can correlate that with becoming a dad when I found out my wife was pregnant and it's 169 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:06,200 like you're so excited in the beginning and then I laid down on that and I was like am 170 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:07,880 I ready to be a dad? 171 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,760 Like I'm going to have to provide for this little child, I'm going to have to, it's not 172 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:16,320 just me that is going to get hurt if I do something wrong or if I make a mistake, it's 173 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:21,360 going to affect my child now and I've got to protect her and make sure they're safe 174 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:27,160 and now when we go out of town on trips, I'm going to be on a crazy dad mode, am I going 175 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,400 to be able to protect her? 176 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,480 Am I big enough, am I strong enough if somebody wants to hurt my family? 177 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,600 There's just all these things that were going through my head and I felt that feeling again 178 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,640 right there, the feeling of inadequacy, I'm not good enough yet, I should have waited, 179 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:44,440 I should have had a better career or been further in my career before I had a kid or 180 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,680 I should have made more money or I should have got bigger, I should have worked on me 181 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:55,360 and my wife's marriage more but in reality, I was ready and now I'm having my third kid 182 00:14:55,360 --> 00:15:01,880 and that's after adopting two kids and I feel this time around, ready. 183 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:06,760 Now guess what, I still kind of make more money, I'm still growing the business, I'm 184 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:12,160 still doing all the same things I was doing with my first kid and now I can look back 185 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:17,080 and see that track record of like okay, I succeeded, I succeeded and I'm going to succeed 186 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:25,840 again and so I do still face that inadequacy feeling even with having my third child, even 187 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,960 having gone through it a couple of times but it's not as strong and I'm more confident 188 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:30,960 now, I'm more confident. 189 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,760 Maybe it's going to get today when I have my sixth or eighth kid because yes, we're 190 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,560 crazy, me and my wife want eight kids, maybe I'm going to get to eighth kid and maybe not 191 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:44,680 even feel that but I highly doubt it because we're human and we want to be the best version 192 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:49,160 of ourselves, we want to reach our utmost potential and with that we're always going 193 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,520 to feel at times we're not good enough and we're especially going to feel that when we 194 00:15:53,520 --> 00:16:01,840 fail, okay you know when maybe your kid falls off a bed or you backed up and hurt your child on accident 195 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,680 or you saw something happening and you could have avoided it, you didn't or you made a 196 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:11,240 wrong business decision or you took on the wrong job. 197 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:17,680 Those moments of failure, those battles that we lost and or will lose, those are going 198 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,760 to provide those feelings again so we're going to come into contact with it time and time 199 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:26,560 again but as you probably know where I'm going with this is that that doesn't mean the war 200 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:27,560 is over. 201 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:32,440 You lost a couple of battles but that's fine, you can conquer the war. 202 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:39,840 Those were probably the two biggest takes I had from this summit and it's caused me 203 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,200 to do a few things. 204 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,120 Adjust the structure of my company, adjust the vision a little bit, adjust the steps 205 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,960 that we're taking to get to where we want to go to implement things I've been waiting 206 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,480 to implement because I think I thought I needed to wait a little bit longer to be a little 207 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:59,680 bit bigger when in reality I know who we are, I know what we can do and I know our potential 208 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:05,040 and that potential can be implemented now and so for any of you out there that have 209 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:12,480 that feeling of inequity and inadequacy, fight that voice, fight it. 210 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:17,880 Trust yourselves, trust your gut, follow who you are and who you want to be and don't stop 211 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:23,880 even if other people or yourself are telling you that you can't do it because I'm here 212 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:28,080 to tell you you definitely can and the difference between the people who make it and succeed 213 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:33,600 and the people who don't are the people who listen to that voice or other people and the 214 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,320 people who don't. 215 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:39,560 Time and time again, I can't think of one success story that I've listened to where 216 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:44,640 somebody told them or people didn't tell them that hey you can't do this or you're not going 217 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,960 to do this or they didn't feel that they could do this. 218 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:51,880 Like I said it's all part of the game so listen to those around you that have gone through 219 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:56,280 it and understand and be prepared that you're going to go through it and it's okay because 220 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,880 if you push through it you're going to succeed and you're going to get to where you're wanting 221 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,920 to go and guess what you're going to face it again and you're going to push through 222 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,280 again and you're going to face it again and then you're going to push through but it's 223 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:12,040 going to be step by step more success and it's going to be easier and easier as time 224 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,720 goes on and the more you face it. 225 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:24,400 So all in all guys, you know it's fun, it's hard, it's exhausting to try and find the balance 226 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:29,680 between home and work life and trying to make sure that you're being successful not only 227 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:38,000 on the battlefield but also at home with your family and not only being the best employee 228 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:43,080 or the best business owner but also trying to be the best dad, the best brother, the 229 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,920 best nephew, we all have families so wherever you're at in your life it's definitely possible 230 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:53,560 to do both but it takes time and it takes understanding and so I hope you guys get enough 231 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,920 out of this podcast as we continue to go to be able to implement these little things and 232 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:06,920 remember these things as the days go on that you're doing it, keep with it, implement all 233 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:11,080 the things we're talking about, listen to the experience from all these other people, 234 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:16,360 ask family members, ask other people in your industries or your careers what they're doing, 235 00:19:16,360 --> 00:19:20,360 people that are more successful than you and what they're doing to balance that life and 236 00:19:20,360 --> 00:19:25,680 how they're coping with it and how they're pushing themselves and what they do to work 237 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:30,560 out and get more exercise, you know they're all most successful people are going to have all the same principles 238 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:37,480 because they're universal and they've existed for thousands of years and they work, that's 239 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,680 the most important concept to understand is that they work. 240 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,040 This is the Homework Assignment Podcast, tune in next week, we're going to have a great 241
