00:00My goal in life was to be rich, so I took a job for the most money. I didn't care what I did.
00:04They could have told me I could shovel shit with my hands, but they were going to pay me seven figures.
00:07I'd do it. When they gave me a $250,000 a year sales job for the internet in 92, I said,
00:12you know what? That's that plan. And these guys are eight hours of productivity. I'm going to do
00:1516 hours of productivity. I'm going to be twice as efficient, and I'm going to be twice as
00:20statistically successful, and I'm going to work seven days a week. Took that job in sales, worked
00:2356 days a week through this philosophy of efficiencies, effectiveness, and statistical
00:27success. I worked 16 hours active, productive, twice as efficient. So I flew every day. I wasn't
00:33married. I was money hungry, so I kicked everyone's butt. And so coming from Akron, Ohio, five years
00:37old, thinking that if I could make a million dollars, I could buy my mom a house, a car, and
00:41retire. And I did buy my mom the house and the car nine months out of law school. That's the first
00:45money I spent. It just reaffirmed at that time that money would buy love and happiness for me.
00:49It really did.
