That's one of the biggest reasons why I left alarms my last year because I started getting to a point where I was like, this is too easy, it's boring. I don't even care if I'm the number one rep anymore. And that's when you know, like, I need to go do something else. And that's why I wanted to get into a completely different industry.

And everybody told me at Apex and my friends at Pinnacle, like, oh, you'll be back next year. You'll be back. You can't make this type of money outside of door to door. There's no way. And that was like a chip on my shoulders. Like, oh really? I'm just gonna freaking move back to Missouri and you'll never hear from me again. And they never did.

Yeah. So I went to school to become a psychologist.

I was just fascinated. My first year I was like physical education major because I was playing sports. But then I started to realize like, oh, they don't make any money. So I need to do something different. And I was always fascinated with the mind and the way the brain works, because it's always like I wanted to get into the pitcher's mind. Like I wanted to see.

what was going, what was he thinking? Like look him in the eyes and like see what he was thinking. Because a lot of times I could like pick up like what type of pitch he was going to do like real quick. My eyes were just like that and I played center field. So if you're out in, did you play baseball? I played baseball. What was your position? Second base usually. Yeah. Okay.

So don't have second base is harder, but like out in center field, you can literally see where the pitch is going outside, up, down. So it's like you get a jump on the ball. Like you're already moving towards like when you start seeing the pitch come out of the hand. So in my mind, like I was always fascinated with just everything, why things happened.

So when I got into sales, I'm like, well, why did they give me that? I want to think it over. Like I was thinking, why do they tell me they need to talk to their spouse? Like I wanted to understand why they thought that why they didn't buy. And so to me, it was fascinating just to learn about the brain and why it made sense. And I have, uh, uh, one of my, I wasn't sick.

My uncle's best friend or something was a famous psychologist and he was charging like a thousand dollars an hour per session. He was really, really good. Got big results. And so I'm like, I didn't even make money. You know, I'm not going to go pro. What am I going to do? And so that's why I've been in that, but as, as a psychologist, Going back to this, your chip on the shoulder.

I believe everybody has a chip on their shoulder. Some people just don't activate it. My chip on my shoulder, and a lot of it comes from as you as a child, from the ages of four to about 13. That's where your whole worldview usually is shaped by the people you're around, maybe the church you go to, maybe what you watch on TV. Kids now influenced by influencers on TikTok. That's their worldview.

Okay. Which is dangerous. So as a kid, my stepdad lost his job. He became disabled. He got lupus and went from like a middle-class family to like broke and poor. And my mom had to go become a waitress because she didn't initiate it back to college. And we had, there was five of us boys. And so around the age 11, we became very poor. And I remember going to baseball practice, still remember this.

And my parents couldn't afford the Nike cleats anymore. And I had some brand from like Walmart or something. I just remember feeling so stupid, right? And I'm just like, I'm never going to feel poor. And so from that day forward, like something, I don't know, something shifted where I'm just like, it was like, I was, I was afraid of like ever being poor.

And probably until like my early thirties until I went to like Landmark Forum. I didn't know why I was so motivated to succeed, but it was like a fear of loss. Like I want to be successful. So I'm never feel poor again. And so when I, if you guys ever went to landmark forum, it's really good. It's like, it just kind of helps you understand personal value helps you understand

why you do what you do. I've heard about it. Yeah, it's really good. And so then I'm like, okay, well, I don't have to, I don't have to want to be successful because I'm afraid of being poor. I need to switch that. And I want to be successful because I want to help more people. I want to be able to have more impact. And so it was a big shift for me, but everybody has a chip.

Just most people don't activate it.

And I think it's the way you look at trials and tribulations. I believe that God gives us trials and tribulations. So, you know, scriptures, we turn our weaknesses into our strengths. And I think a lot of people don't do that, though. He gives them the trials and tribulations, but they just like settle with like, well, it's just the way it is. They're just going to be weak.

And I think, you know, guys like you and I, we want to take those weaknesses and like, how do we make them strengths? Like, how do we overcome them? Because we know when we overcome, when we overcome that fear of change, everything we've ever wanted is on that other side of that change. Absolutely.

Yeah.

It's all, it's all what you do is there, you know, learn from it. And you look at it as like, Hey, this sucked, but what am I going to do about it? Or are you going to be like, this sucks and my life is horrible. It's just, it's two different paths.
