James Arthur Ray

I was supposedly worth north of $20 million. I had a 7,500 square foot estate in Beverly Hills. I had all the accoutrements and they were gone like that, just like that. And so what value do they have? They don't. Everything in this world is transitory. The only thing that has true and lasting value are those things which can never be lost or taken.

And those things are not ever outside, they're inside. If it can be lost or taken, it has use value. You can use them and enjoy them, but they don't have any intrinsic value. I got carried away with all the fame and the success to a degree, and I got sucked into the system. I had to step back.

When I was standing in the desert, homeless and alone and $20 million in debt in 2013, I had to do a deep dive and say, what's James Arthur Ray 3.0 going to be? Which presupposes there was a 2.0 and a 1.0, which are different stories. Who is he going to be? What's he going to be about?

Well, what originally drew me in the field, John, was that I grew up a very introverted, insecure, skinny, scrawny, bullied person. young man and I never fit in at school and never fit in anywhere. Quite frankly, I failed miserably at organized sports and those things are very important for a young individual.

And so I thought I sequestered myself in my bedroom and thought if I could figure out how the universe worked, that I could figure out how my life worked and maybe I could turn my life around. And that's what drew me to begin to invest in myself and learn about myself. And as that started to unfold, then things started to get better.

I mean, my career started to grow, my confidence started to grow and so many things started to unfold for me. And then I got a job, my formal career. corporate career was with AT&T School of Business. And I was a national sales trainer first for them. And then I became a C-suite consultant and I was teaching.

I started teaching in front of the room and it just felt like it was the right thing to do. It really like I had a God given gift literally to do that. And so consequently,
