1:28
Speaker 1: watch your videos, I'm motivated. Uh. I find them entertaining.
1:32
Speaker 1: I find them. Uh, I could never do them because
1:35
Speaker 1: you you know, you're very active. You're very active in
1:38
Speaker 1: your in your in your video video. Explain that technique
1:41
Speaker 1: that you developed in your videos. Well, I first of all,
1:46
Speaker 1: thank you. And when it comes to the videos, it's
1:48
Speaker 1: all passion. It's all purfect to me. I gotta drop
1:51
Speaker 1: a name for you. Paul Brunsman, if he recently moved
1:54
Speaker 1: to the UK, has the Relationship show was picked up
1:57
Speaker 1: my own years ago and they put them on a
2:00
Speaker 1: great path. I was in the Mastermind group with Paul
2:02
Speaker 1: and he said, Mark, your power, your energy is amazing,
2:05
Speaker 1: but you got to get it out to the world.
2:07
Speaker 1: So he said, in today's era of social media, you
2:10
Speaker 1: just gotta let it all out and that led me
2:13
Speaker 1: to start doing videos. And I was standing still. He said, Mark,
2:16
Speaker 1: that's not enough. You too posserble start walking around. And
2:20
Speaker 1: then when I was in Atlanta, I was at John
2:21
Speaker 1: Hope Bryant's Hope Global for him and that was the
2:24
Speaker 1: first one I did walking around and he said, that's good, Mark,
2:27
Speaker 1: I feel it. But it's another level. And and and listen,
2:30
Speaker 1: Mr Rishan, when I started putting that video camera down
2:34
Speaker 1: and just started letting guy use me naturally, that's what
2:37
Speaker 1: you see today, and that's what's bringing everyone in the
2:39
Speaker 1: world is taking notice. When I take notice. I showed
2:42
Speaker 1: it to my staff. I told him, I said this,
2:45
Speaker 1: I helped up. I said, this the guy one of
2:47
Speaker 1: my show. Right here, Mark, look at it. Let's get
2:49
Speaker 1: right here. Look like he moves back, he runs to
2:52
Speaker 1: the camera, goes back, he makes that statement and the
2:54
Speaker 1: steps back. I said, he does it everywhere he could be.
2:56
Speaker 1: He could be on the street, he could be in
2:58
Speaker 1: the parking lot, he could be in the building. I
3:01
Speaker 1: just love the fact that you're saying you're willing to
3:03
Speaker 1: take your your message wherever it needs to be heard.
3:06
Speaker 1: That's basically what you're saying in your videos. Correct, I
3:09
Speaker 1: am definitely saying that. And here's the thing. See, I
3:11
Speaker 1: get motivated when I can motivate others. God set me up,
3:15
Speaker 1: and see what happens is that this is the only
3:18
Speaker 1: thing that's this liberating for me. It's liberating. I've been
3:22
Speaker 1: holding that power in for so long and now you know,
3:25
Speaker 1: we're getting the other questions later. But I made millions
3:29
Speaker 1: and lost it all. But now I'm in alignment with
3:31
Speaker 1: my purpose. So now I'm able to do things like
3:34
Speaker 1: this video and just let all the power out because
3:36
Speaker 1: my job is to take the power that's in me
3:39
Speaker 1: and transferred to the people of the world. Well what
3:42
Speaker 1: you do? You caught my eye and I find it
3:45
Speaker 1: because I feel you know when you when you're in
3:46
Speaker 1: this business is a competitive business, Okay, motivation and information
3:50
Speaker 1: and you know what separates you what catches a person
3:53
Speaker 1: I and and allows them to share your views? And
3:57
Speaker 1: that's the whole thing. In social media. You know, you're
3:59
Speaker 1: marketing and brandy machine, and so what's your hook, what's
4:02
Speaker 1: your take on it and how you can grow your
4:04
Speaker 1: brand and basically what you're doing and in developing this technique,
4:09
Speaker 1: I find it. Uh, can I congratulate you on that.
4:12
Speaker 1: And one of the reason I'm a fan is because
4:14
Speaker 1: I know that's tied to a plan, a plan of action. Correct, Yes, absolutely, absolutely, yes,
4:20
Speaker 1: it's definitely tied to a plane of action. And again
4:23
Speaker 1: you know, um, and that's how ironic. We're in Black
4:26
Speaker 1: History month and um, what happened is that you know
4:29
Speaker 1: Martin had a dream. We all know that. But I
4:31
Speaker 1: also had a dream at the age of fifteen. In fact,
4:34
Speaker 1: I had the same dream each and every night for
4:36
Speaker 1: an entire year. And this is what it looked like.
4:39
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. When I wake up and fall back
4:40
Speaker 1: to sleep, the dream continue. When I go to sleep
4:42
Speaker 1: the next night, the dream continues for an entire year.
4:46
Speaker 1: So so Mr Rashawn Is, I stand on your show
4:48
Speaker 1: and I sit and I spill my heart out to
4:50
Speaker 1: you into the audience. I'm here to tell you that
4:52
Speaker 1: that dream is coming true right here, right now. So
4:56
Speaker 1: I'm a testament that life is real. You can create
4:59
Speaker 1: your own life. We're on a delayed gratification scale. That's why.
5:03
Speaker 1: Your life is created by how you think, how you feel,
5:08
Speaker 1: and how you respond to situations. I'll say it again,
5:10
Speaker 1: your life is created by how you think how you
5:14
Speaker 1: feel and how you respond to situation. Well, Mr back,
5:18
Speaker 1: you have not failed me so far in this interview.
5:22
Speaker 1: Now your book here how to be one with your greatness?
5:24
Speaker 1: Before we get into the book, I had one question,
5:27
Speaker 1: what is your greatness? My greatness and I and this
5:32
Speaker 1: is a great question. In fact, I was talking to
5:33
Speaker 1: a couple of friends the other day, and my view
5:36
Speaker 1: of greatness is that greatness is in the eye of
5:38
Speaker 1: the beholder, meaning that everyone's greatness may look and feel different.
5:43
Speaker 1: That's why we're all made distinctively different. And here's how
5:47
Speaker 1: you know. Because that fingerprint that you walk around with
5:50
Speaker 1: that DNA is unmatchable. You can search the whole world,
5:54
Speaker 1: but there's no one that can specifically match your fingerprints.
5:58
Speaker 1: So that's basically what my greatness is is to come
6:01
Speaker 1: and total alignment with that fingerprint, with that uniqueness that
6:05
Speaker 1: I was created to be. So in doing that, and
6:08
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get into the book a little bit,
6:10
Speaker 1: But you gotta come in alignment with your truth and
6:14
Speaker 1: so so therefore you gotta first learn what your truth is.
6:17
Speaker 1: Because what life does. It forces things on you. So
6:20
Speaker 1: it forces education, all these other things on you. But
6:23
Speaker 1: the true true definition of education is not systematic knowledge
6:27
Speaker 1: to go out and make other people wealthy. True definition
6:30
Speaker 1: of education is not is development from within. So we're
6:33
Speaker 1: already wired for greatness. But when we come into this world,
6:37
Speaker 1: they've bombarred you with other aspects of what you have
6:39
Speaker 1: to do. And often times we we put up these
6:42
Speaker 1: artificial layers to try to suffice all of these things
6:46
Speaker 1: that are coming at us in life. When the truth
6:48
Speaker 1: of the matter is that you're already wired for greatness.
6:52
Speaker 1: You just gotta resist the external and believe and what's inside.
6:58
Speaker 1: My man, we're talking to you. Markdi baxter Uh, author
7:02
Speaker 1: of How to Be One with Greatness. You were born
7:05
Speaker 1: to be great this book I read it always what
7:08
Speaker 1: I when I do when I bring authors on the show.
7:10
Speaker 1: I always read the book to day out, you know,
7:12
Speaker 1: like I get up earlier, read this so everything stays
7:14
Speaker 1: real fresh. And that was some really key moments in
7:17
Speaker 1: your growth, you know, five, six, nine, early years you
7:22
Speaker 1: know that were defining. And the reason I bringing that
7:24
Speaker 1: up because it's important to understand that you can be
7:27
Speaker 1: shaped so clean in those early years and a lot
7:31
Speaker 1: of people understand how important it is to start really
7:34
Speaker 1: you know, putting a proper imprint on the kid, because
7:37
Speaker 1: those memories can carry you to adulthood as it has
7:41
Speaker 1: you because it's it's written in your book when you
7:43
Speaker 1: were five years old, when your brother Tony walked you
7:46
Speaker 1: down to your school for the first time, he was
7:48
Speaker 1: excited and then he just let you go. Yeah, it
7:54
Speaker 1: was a traumatic It was a traumatic experience. And what
7:57
Speaker 1: you you said that, Mr Rashawn, you that it We
8:00
Speaker 1: are all a product of our home, our environment, and
8:04
Speaker 1: our experiences. We are all products of our home, our environment,
8:08
Speaker 1: and our experiences. And whatever you choose to do back
8:12
Speaker 1: in the day, n w A say mix it in
8:13
Speaker 1: a pot like gumbo. So however you mix it in
8:16
Speaker 1: your pots, and whatever recipe you come out with is
8:19
Speaker 1: what you have to deal with. See, I was challenged
8:22
Speaker 1: with a lot of adversity early on in my life
8:24
Speaker 1: and throughout my life because I understand for who much
8:27
Speaker 1: has given, much is required. And see, you gotta change
8:30
Speaker 1: your perception of adversity. Adversity is not bad. Adversity is
8:35
Speaker 1: nothing more than growth opportunities because the only way you
8:39
Speaker 1: can grow is by being challenged. So you gotta change
8:42
Speaker 1: the way you look at adversity and that's what my
8:45
Speaker 1: life has toward me early on in my life. I'm
8:47
Speaker 1: from I'm from a very dysfunctional household. I have a
8:51
Speaker 1: mom that didn't finish high school. She's from South Carolina,
8:54
Speaker 1: has to grow up really, really hard. And I have
8:56
Speaker 1: a dad that only went to the sixth grade from Savannah, Georgia.
8:59
Speaker 1: And they both my great here to Philadelphia and and
9:01
Speaker 1: and created a relationship. And don't get me wrong, God
9:05
Speaker 1: rest my dad and my mom. I lost my dad
9:07
Speaker 1: on June eight to, two thousand and eighteen. I lost
9:09
Speaker 1: my mom on June twenty last year, two thousand nineteen.
9:13
Speaker 1: God rest their soul. But the truth of the matter
9:15
Speaker 1: is that, you know, I'm a realist. They should have
9:18
Speaker 1: never been married. You know, they created, and I love
9:20
Speaker 1: my siblings and I'm thankful for being created. But you know,
9:23
Speaker 1: you gotta call us fade of spade. And growing up
9:26
Speaker 1: in the household, it was very traumatic. I mean, they
9:29
Speaker 1: slept in separate rooms, stretching to kill each other every day.
9:32
Speaker 1: And then we were in the hood, we were from poverty,
9:35
Speaker 1: and then on top of that, then so so so
9:38
Speaker 1: everything is just reinforcing the negativity. And then on top
9:41
Speaker 1: of that, I was the youngest, and all of this
9:45
Speaker 1: drives and all of this insight inside of me, and
9:48
Speaker 1: I had no outlet to let it out, created no mentors.
9:54
Speaker 1: You know. That came later on and I found refuge
9:57
Speaker 1: to football and in church. That's say my life, and
10:00
Speaker 1: I poured all of my pain into it, and henceforth
10:03
Speaker 1: it got me a scholars at the college in football,
10:05
Speaker 1: and I got a tremendous relationship with God because I
10:07
Speaker 1: didn't settle. You know, you got a choice. I mean, listen,
10:12
Speaker 1: adversity comes free, but you gotta fight to secure the blessing.
10:15
Speaker 1: Every adversity comes with an equal with not greater blessing.
10:19
Speaker 1: The adversity will find you free, but you gotta fight
10:22
Speaker 1: to secure the blessing. And the difference is that us,
10:26
Speaker 1: especially as a people, we've become comfortable with simply surviving
10:30
Speaker 1: as this. You get a reward for surviving. You know,
10:32
Speaker 1: it's admirable to survive. But it's time that we start
10:36
Speaker 1: to thrive. So you gotta push the issue to thrive
10:39
Speaker 1: to get to those blessings. And that's what I just
10:41
Speaker 1: learned how to do, and that's what I'm showing the
10:43
Speaker 1: world how to do it. He's doing. First of all,

13:47
Speaker 1: It's such a pleasure to be here and I want
13:48
Speaker 1: to thank you again for having me well great, um,
13:52
Speaker 1: I was talking about we we kind of dipped in
13:53
Speaker 1: a little bit when you know, like I love the
13:56
Speaker 1: fact that you know, you just told her on the
13:58
Speaker 1: story about your home life. But was these these little
14:00
Speaker 1: slices of life that stories are experiences you're providing your book,
14:05
Speaker 1: like like dealing with issues, how we how we will
14:08
Speaker 1: hide and how we will shield, how we tend to
14:11
Speaker 1: stop ourselves, like like expecting something that happened, and then
14:15
Speaker 1: when it doesn't have that happen that way, how do
14:18
Speaker 1: you deal with it? And that was that simple walk
14:20
Speaker 1: to school when your brother Tony was taking you. You
14:24
Speaker 1: thought he was gonna walk you all the way to school,
14:26
Speaker 1: and you was having a good time. You know, you're
14:28
Speaker 1: barely keeping up with him with your little short legs,
14:30
Speaker 1: and he was just he was just walking normal. You know,
14:31
Speaker 1: what are you looking at? You? You're just trying to
14:33
Speaker 1: keep up. And then you just you just say a
14:35
Speaker 1: word or two. You thought there was gonna be like
14:37
Speaker 1: a big brother little brother conversation and he's gonna just
14:39
Speaker 1: tell you about life on the way, and he barely
14:41
Speaker 1: spoke to you. And then when he was almost almost
14:44
Speaker 1: out of school, he just pointed at it. You got
14:47
Speaker 1: it from here, I got you now. But that's what
14:51
Speaker 1: life feels about though, because a lot of people they
14:53
Speaker 1: get on the job, they think the job is gonna
14:55
Speaker 1: go this way, and then when the when the job
14:57
Speaker 1: throws in the curve, how they they deal with it
15:01
Speaker 1: is the next step on how they're going to be successful.
15:03
Speaker 1: That's what I took away from that story. You walk
15:06
Speaker 1: in to school with an expectation your brother's gonna take
15:09
Speaker 1: you to the front door that school, and he didn't.
15:11
Speaker 1: How you dealt with it alone the way for the
15:13
Speaker 1: rest of your life. Really, it's who you are today,
15:18
Speaker 1: right and and and I thank you for the for
15:21
Speaker 1: the analogy that you use with social media and things,
15:23
Speaker 1: I say the same thing. Everybody proclaim their own goodness.
15:27
Speaker 1: It's a perfect place for me invent yourself. But no,
15:29
Speaker 1: you're you're you're a hundred percent right. It's all about
15:33
Speaker 1: what how you handle the situations that you're faced with.
15:36
Speaker 1: And when my brother was walking me to school, um, again,
15:39
Speaker 1: you were perfect. You're in your analysis of me thinking
15:42
Speaker 1: it's going to be a big brother and little brother interaction.
15:46
Speaker 1: I rarely saw him. He was about sixteen years older
15:49
Speaker 1: than me. I was the youngest, and it's a big
15:50
Speaker 1: gap in between us. And this was individual time and
15:53
Speaker 1: then when he left me. But what I had to realize,
15:56
Speaker 1: and this is what I encourage us all to do.
15:58
Speaker 1: The first person you have to look in any situation
16:01
Speaker 1: is yourself, because all of the answers to life's problems
16:04
Speaker 1: are in the mirror. And what I realized at a
16:07
Speaker 1: young age is that I misled my older brother. See,
16:11
Speaker 1: any situation that you're part of, there's something that you
16:14
Speaker 1: gotta learn, even if it seems like it's not your fault,
16:17
Speaker 1: Like if it seems like you're honey, innocent, there's still
16:20
Speaker 1: something you gotta learn, or else you wouldn't have never
16:22
Speaker 1: been encountered the situation. So when I had to look
16:25
Speaker 1: in the mirror, I realized that I created that situation
16:28
Speaker 1: because I used to act tougher than I really was.
16:31
Speaker 1: You see, because I had these older brothers that were cool,
16:34
Speaker 1: and I used to act that way too. I act
16:36
Speaker 1: more mature. I had some pride in there. Because of
16:40
Speaker 1: that pride is what my brother called on too. He
16:43
Speaker 1: he felt those vibrations and in his mind, he didn't
16:46
Speaker 1: feel like he was doing anything wrong. He felt like
16:49
Speaker 1: he may have been doing me a favor because I was.
16:52
Speaker 1: I was projecting as if I was more mature than
16:55
Speaker 1: I really was. So I had to look in the
16:57
Speaker 1: mirror fers to acknowledge how could I do different or
17:01
Speaker 1: what how can I change my behavior in order to
17:03
Speaker 1: get a different result. And that's set the tone for
17:06
Speaker 1: the rest of my life. And I realized I used
17:08
Speaker 1: to question God all the time because I didn't just
17:10
Speaker 1: have little things happen to me. I had big things
17:13
Speaker 1: happen to me. Like I didn't just break the arm.
17:15
Speaker 1: I broke my femur bone, the biggest bone in your body,
17:18
Speaker 1: your side bone. So I had to be in a
17:20
Speaker 1: body cast for three to six months. I had to
17:23
Speaker 1: learn how to walk all over again. So I didn't
17:25
Speaker 1: just have little stuff happen to me. And I used
17:28
Speaker 1: to always question, you know, God, why me? Why me?
17:31
Speaker 1: I didn't ask for my mom not to like me.
17:33
Speaker 1: I didn't do anything. I didn't ask for her to
17:36
Speaker 1: do to do anything in her power to try to
17:38
Speaker 1: tear me down. You're the one that I looked to.
17:41
Speaker 1: You're you're my point guard, You're my go to person,
17:44
Speaker 1: You're my quarterback. You know what I mean. But what
17:47
Speaker 1: I realized about life is that that was just life
17:50
Speaker 1: challenging me to be my best self. And now that
17:53
Speaker 1: I was able to meet those challenges, that where they are.
17:56
Speaker 1: And I mentioned earlier, every adversity comes with the eat,
18:00
Speaker 1: if not greater blessings, adversity comes free, but you gotta
18:03
Speaker 1: fight to secure the blessings. And I'm just one that
18:06
Speaker 1: fights to secure my blessings. And now I'm just trying
18:09
Speaker 1: to help other people to fight to secure their Well,
18:11
Speaker 1: my man, that's exactly what all right? Have you on this?
18:15
Speaker 1: Just to tell my fans and my listeners are people

Speaker 1: you because and I appreciate you, Mr Rashaan, because it's
19:04
Speaker 1: all about awareness. You know, a lot of people need
19:07
Speaker 1: exactly what I have, just like we all need each other,
19:10
Speaker 1: but we don't know, you know, so we have to
19:13
Speaker 1: keep expecting and having a desire for better. It's all
19:17
Speaker 1: about your desire. If you don't have a desire for better,
19:20
Speaker 1: better is not gonna come your way, you know. So
19:23
Speaker 1: it's all about your desire. And uh, let's talk about it.
19:26
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the business side of you. You. We
19:28
Speaker 1: know you're a great motivator. We know you you're passionate
19:31
Speaker 1: about your reminding people that your past. Do not allow
19:35
Speaker 1: your past to determine your future, your destiny's chide to
19:38
Speaker 1: your effort. Now, you have a business that I wanted
19:40
Speaker 1: to bring up to your peril. Company called Gangster mindset
19:43
Speaker 1: LLC is reading redefining the word gangster with a positive spind.
19:47
Speaker 1: Talk about that absolutely, Like I've always um, you know,
19:52
Speaker 1: I've always had desired being from the inner city, from
19:54
Speaker 1: poverty and things like that and coming out being a
19:57
Speaker 1: being a man of character and integrity, you know, not perfect,
20:01
Speaker 1: but as pure of a heart as you'll find. You know,
20:03
Speaker 1: I realized that. You know, it's all about growth and development.
20:09
Speaker 1: You know, it's all about growth and development. So you
20:11
Speaker 1: gotta put yourself in the best position so you can
20:13
Speaker 1: continue to grow and develop. And that's all. That's all
20:16
Speaker 1: that I do, and that's all that I aspire other
20:18
Speaker 1: people to. So Epartment Unlimited is a company for individuals, businesses,
20:22
Speaker 1: and the entire world. And it's it's about coaching and
20:26
Speaker 1: consulting from a mindset and leadership perspective. So I have
20:29
Speaker 1: a mindset methodology program that I use to take people
20:35
Speaker 1: and master themselves. Because I have a personal quote, once
20:38
Speaker 1: you master yourself, life has no choice but to forever
20:42
Speaker 1: bowed down to you. I'll say it again, Once you
20:45
Speaker 1: master yourself, life has no choice but to forever bowed
20:49
Speaker 1: down to you. And here's why. Because the world is
20:52
Speaker 1: all fake as you just mentioned social media, but yourself,
20:55
Speaker 1: you have your wired with greatness and authenticity. So when
20:58
Speaker 1: you master that, the world can touch you. So in
21:01
Speaker 1: my company, I raised businesses, individuals two levels unimaginable you
21:06
Speaker 1: know Gainster mindset of power with the closing company I
21:08
Speaker 1: just dropped, and what it means is boldness, excellence and uniqueness.
21:14
Speaker 1: So every day I do a video and I get
21:16
Speaker 1: three steps on that video. The last step is always
21:19
Speaker 1: you got to develop against mindset, and I give a
21:22
Speaker 1: different description of what Ganinster mindset is in fact today's video.
21:26
Speaker 1: The third point is you got to develop against mindset,
21:29
Speaker 1: a mind bold enough to believe that life is always
21:32
Speaker 1: happening for you and not to you, regardless of what
21:36
Speaker 1: it may look like or feel like. My man, Okay,
21:41
Speaker 1: you know you got me fired up rights missing a complict. Well,
21:50
Speaker 1: you know the beauty and first of all, you noticed
21:52
Speaker 1: that the last time on my show. Because I don't
21:54
Speaker 1: reach out to people because I have a vision, people
21:56
Speaker 1: have called me a visionary. I see things and how
21:59
Speaker 1: I talk to people and these conversations. A lot of
22:01
Speaker 1: people call me their uncle. And you you can come
22:03
Speaker 1: into little Roushan Uncle club because of the fact that
22:07
Speaker 1: I want to be there for you. You You know, if
22:08
Speaker 1: you ever want to call and uh, I give myself
22:11
Speaker 1: if you want to call and say, Rashan, what do
22:12
Speaker 1: you think about this? This is about not about me
22:15
Speaker 1: making money. It's about making ensuring you that you're getting
22:18
Speaker 1: the advice from a successful person who's had many paths
22:22
Speaker 1: out there, and and and many. Some people call me
22:25
Speaker 1: a renaissurce man because I'm able to rechange myself. I'm
22:28
Speaker 1: able to reinvent the process of that path. I see
22:32
Speaker 1: an opportunity. What I do not do, Mark is think
22:35
Speaker 1: about it. I go forward. You know. But if we're
22:38
Speaker 1: shining over there thinking no, I think he's over there
22:40
Speaker 1: digging the ditch. Now. I think he's already laying the
22:44
Speaker 1: concrete to the foundation for his next house. I think
22:46
Speaker 1: that's what you're doing. So when you talk about before
22:49
Speaker 1: we get off there, when you see you contribute most
22:51
Speaker 1: to business success, can you give us some nuggets and
22:55
Speaker 1: what you mean when you say that statement? Oh man, listen,
22:59
Speaker 1: business success is nothing more. See, before you got a business,
23:02
Speaker 1: you got an individual. All the team is is a
23:04
Speaker 1: group of individuals. And what what makes it the team
23:08
Speaker 1: as the commitment to the common goal. You see. So
23:11
Speaker 1: in order to have a successful business, you gotta first
23:14
Speaker 1: have a successful why. You gotta know your why, Why
23:18
Speaker 1: do you want this business? Who are you serving? Why
23:21
Speaker 1: do you want to serve that population. And as Damon
23:23
Speaker 1: John says, I've been a Rising Grind ambassador now I'm
23:26
Speaker 1: a power Shift ambassador for Damon John over the last
23:30
Speaker 1: two years. And his main thing is know your target audience.
23:34
Speaker 1: Who are you selling to? So you gotta know your why,
23:38
Speaker 1: like why do you want to get this product or
23:41
Speaker 1: this service out? And then you gotta know who wants
23:43
Speaker 1: the service and products, and then you gotta find creative
23:46
Speaker 1: ways to put it in their hands, make them friends,
23:49
Speaker 1: make them, you know, customers, and you gotta and that's
23:52
Speaker 1: what you have to do. And you gotta constantly reinvent yourself.
23:56
Speaker 1: See the reason when Puppy and Damon John broke up,
23:58
Speaker 1: you know I mean, not for when jay Z and
24:01
Speaker 1: Damon and David and I said, Damon John, When Puffy
24:04
Speaker 1: and Damon Dad broke up, you know from Rocket Feller,
24:08
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And jay Z say, okay,
24:09
Speaker 1: you may, you may hold make another hole in his reckercy.
24:13
Speaker 1: So so what happened is that jay Z was able
24:16
Speaker 1: to reinvent himself. Now you see billionaire jazz it See
24:20
Speaker 1: this game is about reinventing yourself because things constantly change.
24:24
Speaker 1: Life is about evolution. Constant change. So if you think
24:27
Speaker 1: you can stay the same and continue to rise and
24:29
Speaker 1: elevate your wrong So in order for you to be
24:32
Speaker 1: successful in life and in business, you gotta want. You
24:35
Speaker 1: gotta know your why said it to the depth of it.
24:38
Speaker 1: You gotta know your why. Why are you doing it?
24:40
Speaker 1: Why are you want to be successful? Who can you help?
24:43
Speaker 1: And then you gotta know who who you going to help?
24:45
Speaker 1: Who's who likes your product, who wants your product, who
24:48
Speaker 1: needs your products or service? And then you gotta find
24:50
Speaker 1: creative ways to make them wanting and need it over
24:53
Speaker 1: and over and over again, while not being afraid to
24:57
Speaker 1: dives ben and reinvent yourself. I'm talking to Dr Mark
