Building an Exceptional Life

What does it take to build a life of true success? Not just financial wealth, but success in all areas—business, family, health, faith, and relationships? If you've ever felt like you're hitting a ceiling in one or more areas of your life, this is for you. https://www.youtube.com/live/nog4jnlRM1Q In a recent episode of The Money Advantage Podcast, Bruce and I had the privilege of speaking with Chaz Wolfe, a serial entrepreneur and founder of Gathering the Kings. Chaz isn’t just about building businesses—he’s about building an exceptional life, where success isn’t limited to financial growth but extends to every dimension of life. And today, we’re sharing the most powerful takeaways from that conversation to help you do the same.

He's an operations & process maximizer and an award-winning sales and business mind.  As a dynamic leader, facilitator & speaker, he has helped both domestic and international organizations achieve massive levels of growth in all areas of life! The Key to Sustainable Success: Winning in All Areas Chaz made a powerful statement early in our conversation: Winning is not about being perfect, it’s about pushing for the next level. Many entrepreneurs focus entirely on their business, often at the expense of their health, marriage, or personal fulfillment. But what if the key to true wealth isn’t just in making more money, but in building an exceptional life? He introduced the concept of the “Dimensions of Kingship,” where winning in business is just one piece of the puzzle. True success means firing on all cylinders—faith, finances, business, marriage, health, and lifestyle. The Difference Between a Business Owner and an Entrepreneur Bruce raised a crucial point: Many people start businesses because they want to escape a traditional job, but they don’t necessarily become entrepreneurs. Instead, they end up owning a job rather than building a scalable business. The difference? Entrepreneurs continuously innovate. They don’t just work in their business—they work on it, constantly refining their offerings, improving systems, and creating freedom for themselves and their teams. If you feel stuck in your business, it may be time to ask yourself: Am I building a true enterprise, or am I just working for myself? Obsession, Drive, and the Relentless Pursuit of More One of the standout moments of our conversation was when Chaz spoke about obsession. Entrepreneurs aren’t just people who want to make money; they’re people who need to build, create, and achieve more. It’s not about being discontent—it’s about being grateful but not done. That drive is what separates those who thrive from those who stagnate. Successful people don’t settle. They push for the next level, not just in business, but in their relationships, personal growth, and impact on the world. And that mindset shift—of always aiming for the next level—can be the most powerful catalyst for growth. Fear vs. Freedom: The Mindset Shift You Need to Succeed Fear is one of the biggest barriers to success. It keeps people from taking risks, investing in themselves, and making bold moves in business and life. But here’s the truth: The most successful entrepreneurs aren’t fearless—they just act in spite of their fear. Bruce made an incredible point: Our financial industry has conditioned people to believe in a finite endpoint—retirement.
