In this Yap Classic episode, we're rewinding it back to my conversation with the incredible Grant Cardone, entrepreneur, bestselling author of The 10X Rule, and one of the most recognizable voices in real estate and business.
Grant built his empire by rejecting conventional wisdom, and instead he focused on multiplying income, investing in cash-flowing assets, and building a brand so omnipresent it was impossible to ignore. Now, this was my first conversation with Grant. It was about four years ago. We break down his come-up story. We get deep into his playbook for thriving in any economy.
And we also talk about how to pursue goals that seem 10 times bigger than what you thought possible. Now, I also had a chance to interview Grant for the second time earlier this week. And that was one of my favorite recent conversations, my favorite conversation of the year, quite honestly. It was so good. We go really deep into sales. We go deep into mindset for entrepreneurship.
And I just absolutely loved that conversation. So listen to this one first to get Grant's background, get all the foundational stuff, and then go listen to my most recent interview, which was last Monday's episode, if you want all of his recent material. If you're ready to ditch average thinking and step into a mindset of limitless growth, then you're going to want to learn from Grant Cardone.
