Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results. You get the point with leverage, right? Or you take something you love to do.

Like you would have to do something that would really hurt in the beginning if it would've happened. That's the push and then you would start to set up positive goals so that's the pull. So if I teach my son to manage money, or as a family we've decided to go to Disneyworld...

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results. So now we've got leverage. Now it's game on. So money that would hurt and you disappoint somebody you love that you're trying to help.

So let's just say that's a 5-figure number, 10 grand or above. You would write a check out to a charity that you would never wanna be associated with. So just think of the opposite political party, some group out in the world that you just cannot stand whatever they're about. You're...

All right, self-employed means you've bought a job. Okay, and one of the top questions I get asked as an advisor when I'm giving a keynote presentation or a training or whatever invariably this question will come up. They'll say to me Carl, “When does it get easier"?" Like when does it get easier and you know, I've been in business for two decades, three decades and sales seems to be equally as hard as it used to be managing employees that he's you know, just as hard as it used to be. Do I still after all this time have I earned the right not to have to chase down all of my vendors have I not earned the right not to have to fight the the municipality or the government for everything, you know, like when when does it happen? I have the answer, Manny would you like the answer? You wanted the good news first, Manny. So I'll give you first shot at the answer. Go to the calendar, there's a day on the calendar. There's two days on the calendar. You probably haven't searched to find and and the first day if you ever want to check it out. It's called “Forever” look on the calendar. There's a day called “Forever”. It's on there and it happens. Once you hit that day. It goes on it goes on in perpetuity, and then there's another day called “Never”. ”Never”, when does it get easy? It never gets easier.
