You Can Do Anything - Grant Cardone

So I was a car salesman when I was 25 years old with an accounting degree. I was the only accounting degree car salesman in the state of Louisiana. I hated myself for it. I made three grand a month, nobody would hire me as an accountant, one out of four jobs in Louisiana, you couldn't get, one out of four people, 25% unemployment, and I just said, how do I go from 3 grand to 4 grand, that's all I want to know.

But I started paying attention, ok, who can get me that money, I don't have it, who's got it? I needed shoes, I needed jeans, right? I needed a new shirt, I had these white shirts, I'm a car salesman, I need a nice clean, crisp white shirts, people believe in me. I need some training, I don't know how to talk to people, I hate sales, I hate it, still hate it today.

I've made hundreds of millions of dollars providing sales of programs to corporations, I hate sales, so the fact that I hated it didn't mean I don't do it, because you're only gonna be paid to waste your whole life, you will never be paid fairly, ever. So give up the hope I'm not being paid fairly bullshit. You will never ever be paid fairly, you're gonna be underpaid most of your life, and then one day, if you're lucky you'll be overpaid.

I am not yet being overpaid, I'm being paid nothing right now, that's all right dude, you got to know man, I'm just trying to grow this man, how do i how do I grow it, right, how do I go from, how do I go from this to 5,000 now, what would I do? I would repeat the thing I do, to get from the 3 to the 4, right, ok how do I go more, like like okay now making a hundred grand a year and I make a decision. Hey oh I'm making some real money now, if I could make a thousand I can make ten thousand, I can make 25, I was stuck! I'm gonna tell you something, when I made 4 grand, that was the most important money that I've ever made in my entire life, no money has ever made me happier than that thousand dollars, because that thousand dollars made me realize: I can do anything.
