EPISODE QUOTES

“I think we all have books inside of us. I think you probably have a book, or two, or three, inside of you. So, this was definitely something that I had to get out of me.”  (01:24)  

“That’s what I was striking the check for. It was like, ‘I need to get this book done. I wanna get it out of me, and I’m gonna cut a check to hire somebody to make sure I get it done.’”  (05:38)  

“What a great experience because it forced me to show restraint, and to codify the message into something that was palatable and consumable.”  (07:25)  

“The purpose of a business is to add value to another person by solving a problem for them.”  (08:34)  

“It’s like the expression, ‘The best way to know what’s coming down the road is to talk to a person who’s on their way back.’ I kinda felt like that.”  (12:47)  

“Here’s the thing. This book is chock full of resources. I’ve gotta believe, I don’t know if you can quantify what it’s worth. The book costs X, what you get out of this book is worth Y. It’s far out of balance as far as value.”  (14:48)  

“The compound effect of a book, combined with a culture effect of a community, that’s where you get the massive breakthroughs in your business and your life.”  (16:27)
