• 2:02
  Speaker 1: able to make you an authority, make you authentic, make
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: you organically appreciated by the people who you give advice to.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: How did it all start for you? Yes, it's it's
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: it started uh nineteen years old, straight out of high school. Actually,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I was working at a video store rest in Peace
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: to Blockbuster videos, and I knew that I didn't want to,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: uh you know, be a store manager. And one day
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: one of the assistant managers said that they were hiring
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: at Chase Bank for tellers. Uh. And so I said, oh,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: you know what you know, let me let me just
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: test it out. I love money, let me just go
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: test it out. Um. And so I started my career
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: as a as a teller at nineteen years old. Uh.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: And I did everything you know in banking, from teller
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to personal banking to a private banker branch manager. I
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: was a CEO of a credit union. Um. And while
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I was working though one of my my joy I
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: used to go to to to jails, you know, Rikers Island,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: to churches to be of the based organizations and teach
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: financial literacy. Um. And I'm a big jay Z fan.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: So in the in the words of the Honorable Sean Carter. Uh,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: there's much bigger issues in the world, I know. So
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I first had to take care of the world, I know,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: And so I figured, I said, you know what, I
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: want to do this for a living. And so from
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: there I just decided, like how do I make money?
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: How do I make impact? Number one? But then how
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: do I make an income and an impact? Um? And
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: that's when I wrote my first book in two thousand
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and nine. Uh, and really just kind of you know,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: became a speaker, became a financial educator, um. And then
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: you know, here I am today, still doing the same thing,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: still still a financial educator, but really uh, you know,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: doing it at a at a level that allows me
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: to have you know, more impact. Uh. And you know
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: combine that with with with income as well. Know asked
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: when we when when I brought you on the show,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: and bring you on the show. The whole process is
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: just to break down a lot of things that people fear,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: and people fear money, and people fear banks. Banks intimidate people,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: taxes intimidate people. What's the common effects? You know, because
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: you've been in the bank and you've seen all those
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: different layers that you have. What is the number one
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: common denominator that people have and not be afraid of
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: when they bank. Yeah, I think I think first and
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: foremost is knowledge, uh, and then second, second of all,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: it's the mindset, right because um, you know, once you
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: have knowledge, the people are afraid of what they don't understand, um.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: And so what happens is that a lot of people
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: don't really understand how banking works, how taxes work. They
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: don't understand that part of the game, and so what
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: they attach themselves to is other people's experiences, other what
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: other people go through, which is normally the negative stuff, um.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: And so they attach themselves to that negative aspect of it,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: and so that becomes their reality. But if they start
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: to you know, get knowledgeable, right, the more we understand
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: how things work, um, that is going to the knowledge
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: is going to change our mindset and in our mindset
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: is going to to let us know, um that these
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: are you know, banking is a tool. Money is a tool.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: You know, taxes even are are. It's a tool. And
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: if you know how to use it the right way,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: you can actually use it, you know in your favor.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: You know, they're really funny when you are just hearing
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: your conversation. I smiled because you know, you was talking
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: about how people can stop you from doing your dreams.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: You know, and they have negative spirits because you can
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: go to people, they're gonna have a negative store before
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: we have a good store. That's that's fact of life.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: And so and in the beginning, I always tell people,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: you know, don't let your age, friends, family, and cowork
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: can stop you from planning and living your dream. At
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the age of nineteen, you know, you left Blockbuster, went
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: to a bank, and then you started having dreams of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: thoughts of running the bank, being an executive, talking about
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: people who didn't believe that you could do that, that
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: they questioned you and said, no, you're just gonna be
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: a teller. No, you're not gonna have run a credit union.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Because let's stop so many people's dreams and they allow
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: those negative so much to dominate and then redirect their dreams. Yeah,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: I think I think I think it's important, um that
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: you know, uh, you can't. You can't excuse me, I
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: don't know. If you hit a dog, don't worry about it, okay, Um,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: And so you know, I think I think it's important that, um,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: you know, when you have a dream, you have to
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: realize that the dream was given to you for a
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: particular reason. A lot of times people are so interested in, um,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: you know, what their family has to say, what their
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: friends have to say, not realizing that the dream wasn't
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: given to them. And so I was met with a
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: lot of opposition when I had this dream of being
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: a banker, when I had a dream of, you know,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: being a branch manager. Because the truth of the matter
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: is that, you know, the finance industry is two percent
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: you know, black, right's supercent minority. And so when when
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: you know you see so, you know, a black guy
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: who's from the from the hood, you know, right, I
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: grew up with St. Nicholas projects in Armand and so
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: h you know, black guy from Hallam who doesn't have
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the education that that was necessary. Um. I had a
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: lot of nay says that, a lot of people telling
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: me what I could and couldn't do. But the one
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: thing is that I just had to attach myself to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: that vision. I had to attach myself to that goal
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: and make sure that I that I just stay focused
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: on it. One you know, uh they always say representation matters, um,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: And the one thing all I needed to see is
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: one person. I didn't need to see a thousand people.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I just need to see one person that looked like me,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: that did what I wanted to do. And once I
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: saw that one person, that's who I locked in on.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: And everything that everybody said, or everybody all the nay says,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: it really didn't matter to me because I knew it
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: was possible, and that belief system, that mindset of knowing
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: is possible was all I needed. And so I would
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: tell anybody who has this dream, don't don't share your
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: dream with somebody who has not lived your dream or
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: is it has experienced your dream or is experiencing it,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: because they're coming from a space of they don't have
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the knowledge, right. And so if if you're looking to
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: to have a successful relationship, you can't talk to somebody
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: who's never been in a relationship and get and get
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: relationship advice for them. If you're looking for money advice,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: you can't talk to somebody who doesn't have money experience,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Like you have to have money making conversations with people
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: who know how to make money, been around money, who
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: want to stand money. So that way that that advice
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: is coming from a place of where you want to
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: be or where you wanna go. But though once you
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: get their advice, it doesn't mean you hold on to
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: it because things change to right, you take their advice
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: and now you you mold it. You you create it
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: for you so it could it would be tailor made
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: for you, and then you move forward from there. Yeah,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: that's why I love That's why I was excited about
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: bringing on this show. Because you live my monitor, you know.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Stop reading other people's success story, that's their advice, you know,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: and start writing your own. Because their pathway or how
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: they got there is there. For the age is different.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Their agenda may be different than whether you know they're
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: they're their parental support may be different, and so but
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: the advice is important. Just don't try to live it
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: the way they and achieve it the way they achieved it.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: But more importantly, when I when I listened to you
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: communicate all these these these nuggets of information about your
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: your history, and I tell people between the ages of
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: eighteen and twenty and three are important because that's when
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you're you're out there being yourself. You're you're champion your
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: own causes. You know, you may not be married yet,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: you may be just a guy inspired female inspired by
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: your dreams. When you get out of that, when you
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: get your thirds and farties, is when your dreams may
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: get shifted out of pocket. Now, as you were starting
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: to grow, what started shifting in and who helped you
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: stay online? Ash? Because I always call those people important.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: A lot of people who just step to the plate
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: with rashan, are you crazy? Rash, don't do that. Yeah, So,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: so I would say first and foremost, Um, you know
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: I have to, I have to say my wife, right
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: because when I met her, um, you know, we worked
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: at the bank together actually, um, and she was my
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: biggest champion. She saw a lot in me that I
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: didn't even really see yet. It took me a while
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: for me to see it, right, And so she was
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: always speaking life to me. Right. She was always telling me,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: you know, like if I accepted something that was less
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: than you know, what what what what I what I knew,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: or or less than what I deserved, she would be like, Na,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: you need to you need to step that up, right. Um. So,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: so definitely, my my wife was a big part of
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: my success. But then also, oddly enough, it was people
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: I I never even met, right, because a lot of um,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: you know, my neighborhood, growing up, how I grew up, Um,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: you know, I didn't have access to business mentors. I
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: didn't have access to people that could directly mentor me. Um.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: And so a lot of part of my success was
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: reading books. Part of my six US was watching documentaries.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Part of my success was really, um, just just understanding that,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: you know, other people have done what I wanna do.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: They laid the blueprint. Uh. And and I stayed motivated
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: by always, you know, focusing on you know, somebody's story
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: that you know that that I said, oh wow, this
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: person came you know, from from from from the neighborhood.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Oh this you know this person is is Is, you know,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: has nine brothers, assistants. They grew up in the inner
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: city too, and they and they got two Emmies and
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: they you know what I'm saying. It was those type
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: of stories that got me that that that really kind
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: of allowed me to continue pushing. So I would definitely say,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: you know, my you know, my wife, I would definitely say,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: you know stories, uh, you know, documentaries, celebrities, business people.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: You know. Reginald Lewis was a big you know uh
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: you know, you know a big big uh success. Uh,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: you know a big influence in my life. Black enterprise, right,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Alfred Edmund Uh, you know a lot of people who
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I've watched from afar. But but then eventually, and not
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: to get philosophical, but eventually, as you start vibrating on
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: the on the energy of success, you start to now
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: attract success, right, success attract success. And so as I
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: started to had to pretend and create these mentors in
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: my head, as I started to get successful, I now
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: started to to attract other successful people who have now
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: been my mentors directly. And so you know, I would
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: say it's a combination of you know, of of what
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: I read who are attracted, and then also my my
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: wife as well. I'm speaking to Ash Cash. He's the
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: founder and chief financial educated mind Right Money Management, a
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: financial education and media company have been They blends psychology
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: and personal finance with music, pop culture, and relevant news
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: to help people manage their money. Just to keep this conversation,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: by managing your money, but I don't see your lifestyle
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: better in order to live the life that you want.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: And that's important because so many people make mistakes when
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: they always say looking to the person's yard, you know,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: just because they got the roads, don't mean you have
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: to have a roads or your roads that big. You
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: can buy a small roads for a lot less money
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: and let it grow to that. But a lot of
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: people want to match up. And that's a lot of
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: that's what a lot of people make the errors with money.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: They want to match up to what they think is successful.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Like you said earlier, in a lot of their take area,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: financial area, you see very few black people people they
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: look like you. Well, that's why blacks a lot of
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: times attracted to sports because sports are dominated by African America.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Six of the NFL is black, over of the NBA
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: is black, and so they oh, that's that's they feel
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: that's easy. But still in anything you do as there
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: is work, there is competition. Let's take the blinders off
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: the fake game. Just because you see a lot of
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: us don't mean it's easy talk to us. Yeah, And
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I love I love that you said that because I
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: think that's that's what happens right especially now because we
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: have social media UM. And so social media UM is
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: the highlight reels. So you see the highlight reel UM
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: and people say, oh, if he could do it, then
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I could do it. But people don't see the sleepless nights.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: People don't see the you know, the first you're the
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: first to wake up, the last to go to bed.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: You know that. People don't see the grind that goes
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: behind that. Um. And so I think I think number one. UM.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: That's why when they say life is a is a journey,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: not a destination. That's important for people to realize that
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: if if, if success is a place for you, then
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: you're doing it wrong. Success can't be a place. Success
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: can't say I'm successful when I reached this place. That's
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: absolutely false. You're successful when you wake up every single
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: day with purpose. You're successful when you say, you know what,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: this is what I want. But I love the process
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: that has taken me to get there, because I promise you,

• 18:31
  Speaker 1: four o'clock in the morning the Monday through Friday. I said,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not happy getting up. I said, but I know
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: that's part of the journey. And I always tell the
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: share the story of people about my wife. One time
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: she asked me that she has to drive each to
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: the airport, you know, and she said, wow, you just
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: you just don't stop, dude. I said, well, it's not
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: a question of me stopping. It's just this is a
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: part of my goals. And you put goals in place,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: you have to reach him. And she said, as she said,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: do you ever get tired? And I told us that
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: I'm tired right now right what I'm saying. And I
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: had to tell esther because you knew you would appreciate
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because look, man, look just because I'm
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: moving forward don't mean I don't want to lay that out.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: But that's not part of the mission. And then I
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: want to throw you a compliment. I'm a big rapper.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: I'm a big rapper friend and my all time favorite records,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: there's Tupac tupodcast. Nobody can tell me nothing wrong about
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: TUPAC And there's nothing to do with your side, nothing
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: do with your color. But just listening to that, those
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: those I would call the lyrics that you just laid
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: about motivation and inspiration. Man, if you have dropped the
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: biggest small beat underneath you, I'm telling you I just
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: took off. Took off because it felt like I was
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: listening to the biggest fall of motivational and find out
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: your expect But you've been dubbed like that. You've been
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: dubbed to find that your motivator, haven't you. Absolutely, yeah,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: I've been you know. You know the funny thing about
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: that is because you know, like I said, I am fighting,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: I am motivation. Uh. And so you know when I teach,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: and that's what makes me different. Right, when I teach finance,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not teaching fin I mean, finance could be boring, right,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: So I'm not teaching that from a perspective of uh.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: You know, you know one plus one equals to number
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: one is the mindset right, And that's why my company
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: is called mind Right Money Management, because you have to
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: have your mind right before you get your money right. Um.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: But then you know, I just believe that this. I
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: believe that every single day that you wake up, it's
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: a blessing. Everything else is a bonus, right, And so
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: with that level of excitement, I need people to be excited.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: I want you to be excited with the opportunity to earn.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: I want you to be excited that you even have
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to fulfill your dream. You don't. Don't only
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: be excited because your dream is fulfilled. Be excited that
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: you have the opportunity. There are a hundred and fifty
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: thousand people that die every single day who wish they
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: have the opportunity that you have. And so I just
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: wake up inspired and motivated and thankful to God that
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: I have another opportunity to talk to people. And so
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: you know, you know, uh, I don't drink coffee. So
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: this energy that you get right now, this is this
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: is this is number water, this is h two old.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: I don't drink coffee, but it's just an excitement. And
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: that's why they call me the financial motivator because you know,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: I have a special way of of using that excitement
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: for life to teach you about finance. Because I also
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: believe that abundance is our birth right, um, and so
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: it's not something that we should be begging for. It
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: isn't something that we should be compromising ourselves for. It
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: is our actual birthright. And the more you can get
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: to the money, the more you can get to your
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: to the money, the more you can get to the purpose. Right.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: So when you start leading with purpose and you start
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: doing and being who you are every single day, that
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: is what's going to allow you to uh uh command
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: the income that you want to command. And the more income, right,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: I know Biggie said, more money, more problems, but the
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: more income, the more impact. Right, more income, more impact.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: So that's what it's about. It's about having motivating people
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: to get to the bag, right, motivating people to get
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: to that financial abundance that's their birthright, so that way
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: they can have more impact. Right. I've been broke before, Right,
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: I've had I've been a spaces where I'm counting and
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: figuring out How'm gonna pay bills. I'm not my hundred
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: percent self, right, I'm not giving you all of ash
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: cash if I'm trying to figure out how I'm gonna
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: rob Peter to pay Plaul. But but but I promise
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: you when I when I when I'm in my purpose
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: and the income is matching the impact, I get the
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: impact more. And so it's that motivation pizzas that'd be
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: very necessary and it's very by the way, I don't
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: drink off for either. I don't drink tea. I don't
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: called not because I just don't like the taste. People
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: do it. I'm proud of and so so because again
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: it's my I get up because my body tell me
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: to get up. But I always tell people this is is
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: the reason I get up, because I have a reason
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: to get up. A lot of people just go to
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: bed ash they're just dive in bed and and then
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: and then when the long go off, they're mad or
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: they don't know. But when that long go all, what
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: drags me out of bed is that I know what
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: I have to do. And it's boy planning for success
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: and about putting forth that effort. And so when you,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: like you said, when Biggest say more money and more problems, oh,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: he's saying is look, you can get more money, which
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: means that you're gonna have to put more effort on
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: what you're gonna do with it. And that's what this
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: conversation that we're having is about effort. Everybody wants to
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: be a great athlete. Everybody wants to be a great singer.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Everybody wants to be rich. Everybody wants a big house.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Taxes come with that, electrical bills come with that, gas,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: all of its much more. You know. I remember when
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I was reading John Sally when he had his house.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: He bought the big house in Detroit. He said he
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: had like a seventeen thousand dollars electric bill. Guess what,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: he bought a big house that who came with it?
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: He kept the lights on. He all those bad rooms
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: have to be. All that stuff come with it. And
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: that's what more money, more problems. As a motivator, what
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: do you What do you tell people who get frustrated
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: when the dream isn't what they thought it would be
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: when they arrived. Yeah, I think I think that. So
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: the first thing I tell them, uh is be gratefool,
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: be grateful that you know that this is, this isn't
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: what you want, right it is. It is as important
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: to know what you don't want as it is to
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: know what you do want, right, because knowing what you
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: don't want will get you to what you want faster.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: There are many things that that I thought I wanted.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh this is Oh, this is it.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna put my blood, sweat and tears. And then
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: I get to this destination and I'm like, oh that's it.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: But but now it kind of it kind of weeds
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: out all of the all of the all of the things.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: And so I don't I don't um, you know, I
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: don't think it's a loss. Right. A loss isn't a loss.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: It's a lesson, right, and so it's not a loss.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: It's really a lesson. And so for those who get frustrated,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: I think I think frustration, uh is a great tool
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: if you use it right, right, Because some people use
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: frustration as a way to stop. Some people use frustration
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: as a way to give up. Some people use frustration
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: to say, you know what, I'm not doing this no more.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: But you need to know you have to use frustration
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: as a barometer. Right. I'll give I'll give your example.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: If you ever are driving late night on any any highway, right,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: and for whatever reasons, you get tired and you start
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: veering left, what's gonna happen. You're gonna you're gonna run
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: across those ridgets in the road. It's gonna wake you up.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: It's gonna make that noise, it's gonna wake you up.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: Imagine if the ridges weren't there, the ridges weren't there,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: you'll probably hit the divider, You'll you'll swirl around, your
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: cause a bad accident. And so those ridgets on the side.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: When you get tired and you start you start veering
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: left or veering right, it's a it's a it's a
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: wake up call. It's like, yo, wake up, you you
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: you gotta get up. You're about the crash. Frustration is
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: that negative negativity, right, negative feelings? It's that, it's not
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: it's it's not for you to scoff at it. It
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: is a It is a barometer. When you start doing something,
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: you start to get frustrated and you're like, I hate this,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: then just don't stop. Just take it as a sign
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: that you need to read route. That the negativity, that
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: negative feeling that you have is telling you that you
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: are on the wrong track. And now you gotta figure
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: out how do I how do I go back to
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: the middle, How do I go back to this road?
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: So I could go in the in the direction I
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: need to go, And so anybody who's feeling frustration. Good,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: good that you're frustrating. You either care about this thing
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: or is you're not supposed to be doing it. So
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: now take a step back, analyze why are you frustrated?
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: How can you release this frustration? And and and what
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: should you be doing? Because now that you know what
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: you don't want to do or don't like to do,
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: what are the things that you should be doing? Yeah,
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: it's two things. Thank you for that. That the blessing.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna take that little clip out and
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: put it on my social and promote you, my brother.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: But the other ways you're promoting yourself. You have the
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Ash Cash Show or daily live financial news show with
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Strange Money through Friday eight am the nine am Eastern
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Standard type on your YouTube channel and it provides what
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: we just hearing, motivation and advice on finance, entrepreneurship and more.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: And then I Reaching the appeared on the Vault with
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Ash Cast without Town and Labels stepped in and with
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: the crew where he speaks for successful taste makers and
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: entrepreneurs on their mindset. When you started tapping into my mindset,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: what was your work away? Yeah? Man, so so it
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: was First of all, it was a classic. It was
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: an honor to even just be in your presence because
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: you know, as I said on the show, there was
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: so there was so much. I'm always the behind the
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: scenes guy, like, right, what what's making this? What's making
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: this tick? Um? But when I started tapping into your mindset,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: the one thing that that stood out to me, um,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: is that it was your resilience, right, was your ability
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: to not allow nothing, honestly, right, nothing to to stop you.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: That you set a goal, right, and you see the
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: vision for that goal, and you go after that goal regardless, right,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: even when they're obstacles. Because you've had a lot of
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: obstacles in your life. There were things that the normal person, right,
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: and I'm using normal as a you know, just after word, right,
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: the normal person would have given up, given the obstacles,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: given the things that that have happened in your life. Um,
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: but but but but but your mindset, you know, I
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: don't even think you understand what given up means, to
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: be honest, right, because there were even moments in our
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: interview that you said something that that the normal persons
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: would have been more emotionally attached to it, like, oh,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: this happened, right, But but she was like, oh yeah, yeah,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: it was just that, you know, and I was like,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: whoa like again? So so I think I think I
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: think that mindset of um, you know, you know, you know,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: resiliency that I know that the goal is this, and
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: I know on my way to that goal, they're gonna
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: be some some obstacles. They're gonna be some roadblocks, they're
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: gonna be some dechoyes, they're gonna be some things. But
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: that's not gonna stop me. That's actually right, Like failure
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: is actually part of success. That's why I got that
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: that that that the failures, the row blocks, the things
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: that you might stumble on a part of your role
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: to successful. Resiliency is that word that I would definitely
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: attribute to you. Well, thank you. You know. The beauty
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: of you is that uh my, my blessing is that
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: meeting people who um make me better and being interviewed value,
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: sitting around your crew. I walked away a better person,
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: a better leader. Uh. Motivation, because sometimes you get trapped
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: into rhythms. And that's why I always tell people to experience.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Why people tell you to go on vacation, so go
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: to different destinations so you can see things and it's uh,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: either frustrate you, which I love that because I love
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: two words that you stalked over one word you say,
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: frustration that people don't understand the value of that. Selfishness.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: On my side, people don't understand the value that because
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: they take a negative and to two negative words frustration
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: and selfishness were really those are the keys toss of
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: success because you selfishness is denying yourself and taking advantage
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: of every every hour in the twenty four hours. That's selfishness. Say, man,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: look if I gotta get it done, I gotta get
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: it done. That's overcoming the frustration. And most people say
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: I can't get it done because I don't have enough time.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: I never understood what that meant. Not enough time? Are
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: you awake? Do you have your help? God bless you
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: to get up? You have enough time? Set some goals
• 30:15
