Throwback: Why Hard Work Beats Happiness Every Time | Ep 696

You have to figure out like what's the thing that I have to do a lot of. Because every skill is like this, is that there's a period where you have to do a lot of something. And if you don't know what it is, then you're not going to get better. Welcome to the game where we talk about how to get more customers, how to make more per customer, and how to keep them longer, and the many failures and lessons we have learned along the way.

I hope you enjoy and subscribe. The nice thing with being useful is that in order to be useful, you have to be useful to other people. Like no one can be useful on their own.

And so that's why I think being useful is has been probably my day-to-day goal of what I need to do. And that served me well. Not saying anyone should or should they can do whatever they want, but for me, that's helped me. I mean, this is Tony Robbins' quote. He said, if you stay in your head, you're dead.
