How CEO Leila Hormozi Went From Broke, Anxious & Arrested 6 Times To $100M Net Worth

And I realized that my, what would be like my kryptonite was also what my strength was, which was like putting order in place. So it helped me build my first business and sell it so successfully is there was so much order in there.

And I want to be able to quickly adjust. And so it's been this constant journey of, uh, being able to not react when something unexpected happens, but respond very thoughtfully and always ask myself, How can I turn this challenge into an opportunity? How can I respect myself more by overcoming this challenge and I'm less? And that's always led me to making the right decision.

But it's been the hardest thing for me because I like to have structure. I like to have control. And it helps me in a lot of ways. It also doesn't help me in a lot of ways. And so she is much more flexible.

Yeah. And I think also, you know, I've recognized like the people I surround myself with, what do they have that I really like and admire? I often surround myself with people who aren't like me, but they're actually opposite of me in many ways. And one of those biggest things is more spontaneous and more flexible. Play, fun. Yeah. Yeah.

Like you're not as good as you think you are. You're actually really stupid. You don't work as hard as you think you do. Maybe it's all going to fail. People don't like you. Your team doesn't believe in you. I'll make up so many stories in my brain.

I think I've learned to detach from my thoughts. So, you know, I think for a long time trying to suppress them or not focus on them did not help me. But detaching from them and being able to look at them as... sentences in my mind rather than commands or facts has helped me understand that if I'm trying to do anything significant with my life, I'm going to have negative thoughts come up.
