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

And so what it is about though, is like, how can I get to the end of my life knowing that I haven't left potential on the table? Yeah. And that's what I always tie it to, which is like, it's not about the money. It's about what does Layla look like? Who is that person that's able to do these things?

I would like to meet her one day, but if I don't get myself to do these things that are uncomfortable, then that person, I'm never going to meet her.

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

You know, I think what I've recognized is that what's worked for me in many ways and in so many situations is I'm very good at structure. I build literal infrastructure of a business. And in order to do that, it's good to have order of things. I always say like, I manage chaos. I don't stop chaos. I let it happen, but I manage chaos. You can say like, I am a wrangler of chaos.

That's what I like tell myself. But there's times when trying to put structure in place actually doesn't help. And instead I've had to really lean into being flexible rather than rigid. And so my journey has been one of becoming a more flexible person. Because I heard this quote one time and it was like, the most flexible system always wins.

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. It also can cripple you because when something unexpected happens, when this happens, like it just took me a little longer to adjust than I would like.

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.
