The Lessons That Changed My Life

Whether you have nothing or a 40-million-dollar home in Newport Beach, there will always be people who live as if there’s not enough.

Then there’s the world of “just enough.” That world blends scarcity with abundance.

Even people who are generous will trade rather than give—they’ll give, but they will always expect something in return.

The world I’m trying to manifest is a world of “more than enough,” where people are living in truth and consciousness.

I have five different rules for businesses looking to live in this world of more than enough:

1 - Know your personal giving and receiving values. Evaluate those four things every day.

2 - Learn to ask a series of questions to learn how you can provide value to every person in every situation.

3 - Learn a series of questions with which you can ask for help—which is the most difficult and radically humble thing. I lost over $100 million by not asking for help, and my world changed when I learned how to ask the right questions.

4 - Study with a lens of productivity, accessibility, and gratitude what you are doing every day. Study your sleep. Study your calendar and figure out what’s urgent, and what you can delegate to someone else.

5 - Practice ending fear. When you feel like you’re on fire, stop, drop, and roll. Figure out why you feel that way.

When we do these things, we’re more successful and happier.
