simple life hacks and daily habits that you can copy from billionaires don't you want to know what those are waren Buffett Taylor Swift LeBron James Sarah Blakeley searo mamoto Jamie Kern Lima now you and I have six super simple achievable daily habits that the billionaires themselves have told you work for them and I guarantee you they're going to work for you hey it's your friend m I'm so glad you're here we're going to have so much fun today welcome to the Mel Robbins podcast I am always excited to be able to spend some time together
with you and today I'm really excited for the topic so I want to thank you for taking time to listen to something that could truly help you be happier and improve your life and if you're brand new I just want to take a moment and personally welcome you to the Mel Robbins podcast family and say it is so great to have you here and also a huge thank you to whomever it was in your life that sent you this episode and today what you and I are going to talk about are the simple life hacks
and daily habits that you can copy from billionaires don't you want to know what those are I sure do and what I love about everything that you're about to learn it's all free and so let's Jump Right In to number one with the first billionaire who is probably he might even be like the first well-known billionaire that everyone knew about I'm talking about none other than the Oracle of Omar Oma waren Buffett when you do an episode about the habits of billionaires you have got to start off with the OG Warren Buffett and Warren Buffett
is famous for being one of the most successful investors in the entire world he's the chairman and CEO of birkshire Hathaway he is also world-renowned for his philanthropic efforts he is worth $45 billion aren't you curious to know what his daily habits are well the first one may surprise you and I want you to hear it straight from him Warren Buffett did an interview with Professor Jeff Cunningham as part of this iconic lecture series at Arizona State University in 2015 where he describes one of his most important daily habits take a listen what's your media
routine I just read and read and read I probably read five to six hours a day I don't read as fast now as as when I was younger but I read five daily newspapers I read a fair number of of magazines I read 10ks I read annual reports and I read a lot of other things too so I I I've always enjoyed reading I love reading biographies for example you process information very quickly well I have I have some fils in my mind I just love that he reads for hours every single day no wonder
he's so smart no wonder he knows so much about so many things and there's two other things I want to point out first of all this habit it's free there is nothing stopping you from dedicating time every day to reading and learning it's free to do go to a Library log online and you can read for free and the other thing I want to point out is at the very end did you noticed he says that this daily habit of reading every single day has created a filter in his mind and one of the things
about Warren Buffett is that he is known and respected for making extremely decisive and fast decisions and I was really curious about that and so the next part of what you're about to hear him talking about is that his decision making and the reason why he's able to be like yep I'm in I'm out it's not happening fast it's actually happening because of the slow buildup of information that has now been filtering into his brain from the years and years of his daily reading habit and this is how he explains it somebody calls me about
an investment in the business or an investment and securities I usually know in two or three minutes uh whether I have an interest and I don't I don't waste any time with the ones I don't in which I don't have an interest I I always worry a little bit about even appearing rude because I can tell very very very quickly whether uh it's going to be something that's will lead to something isn't that so cool and just stop and think if you're worth $145 billion everybody and their mother is pitching you their business idea so
he is hearing business ideas of the most wide ranging Industries and inventions and problems that people are trying to solve and this guy knows within two or three minutes whether or not this specific investment opportunity is unique and meaningful how does he do that he does it because of this first habit of billionaires daily reading he has leaned into learning through Reading every single day and that has allowed him to filter through information quickly and tap into a lifetime of investing in this knowledge in his brain and you know when I really reflect on this
I'm not a billionaire obviously but one of the things that people have said to me over and over and over again especially since launching this podcast is that I have this innate ability to synthesize very complicated information you know like you and might be talking to a neuroscientist or a medical researcher or somebody that has this really dense and intellectual thing that they're trying to explain to you and me here on this podcast and I just seem to have this ability to listen and then go and distill it down to the simplest thing that you
can take away from this complicated stuff that they are teaching us on this podcast and as I listen to Warren Buffett I'm realizing for the last 14 years I have been heads down reading every single day and researching the topic of psychology and happiness and human behavior it All Began because I was trying to help myself out of a very dark hole that I was in 14 years ago and it's just spiraled into this habit of learning and reading every day and the reason why I'm sharing this with you is because this is available to
you if you make it a habit to feed your brain information every single day in any category or any field that you want to learn more about you're going to build a knowledge Bank you're going to create filters in your mind just like Warren Buffett has done just like I've done over these last 14 years that helps you synthesize information draw connections and like Warren Buffett make faster decisions and by the way one more thing you can learn from waren Buffett as a habit is make it a habit to do things that you're scared to
do that you know are going to improve you they're going to help you achieve your goals and one of those things for Warren Buffett was public speaking he talked about this in that same Arizona State interview I want you to hear it straight from him terrified of speaking in public when I was in high school I avoided any class that would requireed and and in college and then I finally signed up for a Dale Carnegie course uh when I got out of school I realized I had to talk to people and I spent a hundred
bucks I got this little diploma I proposed to my wife during the uh during the uh uh term of the course so I really got my money's worth there but in terms of public speaking I really had to force myself on that he's such an eloquent speaker and he's just so comfortable and relaxed as he's speaking you know you just kind of feel like you're talking to an uncle or you know somebody that you're related to he's so relatable and he's worth $145 billion that's pretty amazing so you would never think this guy was terrified
of public speaking when he was younger that doesn't make sense sense but actually it does and here's why learning how to speak in public is one of the most important life skills that you can force yourself to get better at and I use the word force yourself because the number one fear for most people is speaking in public you want to know the number two fear dying so for most people the idea of getting up on a stage or holding a microphone or speaking in front of other people is terrifying F however you can learn
how to do this because it's a skill and you do want to get better at public speaking and so borrow this habit from Warren Buffett force yourself to do it because the more that you force yourself to speak in public the more that you force yourself to just speak up with your friends with your family with your roommates uh speaking at work the more comfortable you will become and if you're really terrified you need to do what Warren Buffett did sign up for a class because the class is going to make you do it the
class is going to make you stand in front of other people and actually learn the skill of speaking now I don't know if it's going to lead to you proposing to somebody it sure could and it'll definitely make that proposal better but the second that you realize that these skills the skills of gaining knowledge the skills of becoming a good public speaker so that you can advocate for yourself you can express yourself you can walk into a room whether it's at work or home or giving a toast at somebody's wedding and feel comfortable doing it
that is a life skill that will make your life better all righty thank you Warren Buffett let's move on to the second billionaire the one and only t- swis man let's go I love Taylor Swift I'm a huge fan of Taylor Swift I'm so excited I took our daughters to see the ARs tour it was worth every single penny that we paid to go see it I love her she is one of the most successful and famous musicians of all time and the thing about Taylor is she's not just a songwriter she's a prolific songwriter
and so highly regarded for this and I'll just give you an example the latest album she released the tortured poets Department came with 16 songs and three bonus tracks but she won't done there boom she dropped a surprise Anthology containing songs 17 through 31 so plus the bonus tracks we're talking 34 songs all of a sudden within two years done dropped out wow and check this out all 31 songs debuted on the Billboard 100 and she took over the top 14 spots this was the first time this had happened in billboard history and I want
to share with you a habit that Taylor Swift has this is all about how she writes her song and to set this up you're going to hear a clip from an interview that she did in 2015 with singer songwriter Ryan Adams about her songwriting process and Ryan asked her this question Taylor how do you keep all this information in one place and this is what she said and for you on YouTube I can't play the clip this is pretty fascinating Taylor Swift anything with her voice is on Lock and so I don't want to throw
up the video because this video would then get shut down and so I'm just going to read Verbatim what she said in response to Ryan's question Taylor says when I'm pre-writing which is what I'm always doing like right now I'm not actively making an album if I get an idea that I feel is a cool observation and a cool lyric I just write it down I type it into this endless notepad on my phone here's what I want you to take away from that anything that you want to be better at make it a daily
practice so if you notice Warren Buffett said he was reading daily because he was interested in building more knowledge and constantly learning Taylor Swift even when she is not actively writing an album she has a daily habit of capturing ideas in one place and she's using this notepad on her phone this is genius and the reason why this is genius is because I'm sure you've had the experience probably every day where you have this great idea and you tell yourself I got to write that down I got to remember that and a minute later you
don't remember at all she has made it a habit to every single day I got an idea boom I take it out of my head and I make it real and I ground it in the real world by typing it into my phone I freaking love this and that's not all that she talked about she then goes on in this interview to explain now that she's got this long just sort of word thing of ideas random stuff that she's just been putting into her phone every single day here she is taking a step further in
this interview with Ryan Adams talking about the second stage of the song process and so you know I'm going to read the second part of this interview for you on YouTube she then explains to Ryan Adams exactly how she uses this long notepad in her phone of just random ideas so she says when I was writing blank space I wrote the chorus and thought all right I need to search through all my lyrics that I thought of in the last year here that have to do with this sort of like overdramatic kind of Lux visual
that I want to paint and so then she goes into her phone and she starts swiping through and she cherry-picks lines like darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a Daydream you know that song things like that those are things that I had thought of at any time through the entire year how cool now let's just stop and think about how smart this is and how that sets you up as a habit for profound success uccess because she has made it a habit to take the ideas that jump into her head and yank them out of
the subconscious and ground them in the real world by writing them down she now has an ongoing library that she can access in the future if a year from now she were in the middle of writing a song she was like oh gosh what was I had that Epiphany that one day I was walk in the do what the thing was the thing that I thought the idea is gone it's gone and the same is true for you if you triy to hold on to all the Amazing Ideas that pop into your head you're just
going to forget them they're going to come and they're going to go and so I want you to steal this habit and here's one way that you can put this to work right now you're going to steal something that my husband does my husband has this little like notebook that is probably I don't know maybe gets like 3 and 1/2 Ines W like it's a tiny little notebook that can sit in the back pocket of a pair of khakis the man always has it on him we're driving in the car it's out of his back
pocket and it's sitting there right in between us in his truck and every day if he has an idea whether he's walking in the woods or he's sitting at a stop sign or he's cooking dinner he has this billionaire habit he pulls the notebook out he pulls it out of his head and he writes it down and this has been since I've known the man and we've been together for 30 years he has probably 50 of these things if I come to think of it now for me I'm really inspired by this and I don't
know if it's the ADHD or the dyslexia or just just complete disorganization I'm G to own all that I have tried notebooks I've tried those mol skin journals right now I'm working on a system where I'm using 3x5 note cards and they're all over the freaking place I have in my Instagram I don't know if you do this on Instagram but I've organized all these folders that I can save things into I don't have a system yet but here's what I do know this is 10000% a habit of billionaires to take your great ideas and
get them out of your head and get them on paper so that you're building a resource that you can come back to and you know what I guess I'm going to try the notes app just like Taylor Swift Al righty you're ready for habit number three from billionaires let's move on to LeBron James now LeBron James is famous not only for being one of the Great greatest basketball players of all time but what I love is he is one of the greatest basketball players of all time and he's also one of the oldest what's remarkable
about LeBron James is the longevity and maintaining this Elite level of performance across two decades in the NBA and not just playing in the NBA dominating and also launching all these other businesses that have turned him into a billionaire how does he do it what is the habit for LeBron James that really helps him show up and just Peak Performance and I love this interview that you're about to hear because this is an interview that I found that he did on a podcast at the I promise school now you may not be aware of this
but one of the cool things that LeBron James has done is that he is the founder of the I promise School in his hometown of akan Ohio that is dedicated to educating kids at a high risk of slipping through the cracks of the education system and LeBron's involvement goes Way Beyond funding he actively participates in shaping the school's Mission and programs and one of the things that I also love is that there's a lot of kids in this school that have learning disabilities and language-based learning differences which is something I struggle with our son went
to a school like this and so I just love that he has given given back and founded this school and is really involved in it and one of the things that he's involved in is this podcast that is hosted by the students and so here's LeBron James just imagine he's literally like sitting across from one of the students in the school he's like in a little chair and he's got a little microphone and the kid who's interviewing him has like bright headphones on you know kind of like the color that a kid would wear and
on this podcast one of the kids asked them what's one specific thing that you do LeBron James to practice self-care check his answer out what's one specific thing that you do to practice self-care um what I do to practice self-care is I sleep I love to sleep I have to get my eight hours of sleep eight hours plus um I think that's the best way to um re-energize your body re-energize your mind re-energize your spirit re-energize everything you know uh when you sleep you have great dreams you come up with great ideas um and at
the same time you're giving your body an opportunity to rest so you're killing a lot of birds with one stone at the same time so I think um you know sleeping is something that's very very important uh on a day-to-day basis would you ever think that one of the top habits for billionaire LeBron James is prioritizing sleep when he's on the road for games he has talked about this in several veral Clips he tries to get 10 to 12 hours of sleep at night and you know what that's not the only time that LeBron James
has talked about the importance of sleep in an interview so this next clip I just freaking love this thing because this is from a postgame interview in December of 2021 and this is after a huge week where he has been flying all over the country playing several games he is just dominating in his career he has just dominated weak he's 37 years old he's at the top of the game and this reporter asks him you know aside from the Decades of practice that you've been doing and just all of this talent that you have what
is the secret for your stamina check out LeBron's answer I freaking love this uh sleep sleep and inspiration for my son and his team um you I got some uh pretty good sleep in in OKC you know tonight we got in and um the day of the game and um you know yesterday I was pretty tired um you know flying and things of that nature but watching those guys and watching my son and his team play I got some energy from that um and then um I got some more sleep today um and was able
to come in with with some energy and and put it on the floor just because it was you know so obvious how much energy you playing with like how many hours of sleep were we talking about what's a good night sleep for you uh I slept last night from 12:00 to 8 I got up ate breakfast then I went back to sleep from 8:30 to 12:30 I love that and you know what I need I need to send that clip to my husband because the next time he gets up at 5:30 in the morning and
he comes back in our bedroom and I'm still laying there at 7 a.m. I'm gonna be like dude I'm working on my stamina habit LeBron James I love that and you know this is genius because one of the things that you and I have learned together on the Mel Robins podast is how important sleep is we've had two incredible world renowned sleep experts on this show Dr po out on the west coast Dr Robbins here on the east coast and what we have learned is amazing that sleep really is the free superpower habit we know
that sleeping helps you clean out your brain that while you're sleeping you get all the junk out of your brain so that you're ready to start fresh the next day it's like that Zamboni that's cleaning off the ice we also know that if you don't sleep you don't clean out the junk in your brain and you can't be as sharp as you otherwise might be it also helps repair and boost your immune system a full night sleep helps your body recover from stress and illness and the other thing that we've learned is muscle memory and
neurop Pathways all of the learning during the day whether you're learning how to be a better basketball player or you're reading like Warren Buffett does about investing all of that learning actually takes hold in your brain and your body while you're sleeping you've not only learned this from the world's leading researchers on sleep now one of the top athletes in the world is telling you that the habit of sleeping is a superpower and it's free yet another habit from a billionaire that I want you to steal the fourth habit of billionaires comes from none other
than Sarah Blakeley Sarah Blakeley is famous for founding Spanx you know Spanx Spanx is the OG Spanx was the first shapewear brand that revolutionized the fashion industry by creating shapewear you know the suck you in kind of shapewear that was comfortable like no corsets and cinching up and Pinchy stuff that you got to wear we're talking body slimming hold it all together while still smooth and comfy and you can breathe now I've never met Sarah I have admired her from afar I follow her online her story is so inspiring we got to get her on
the Mel Robbins podcast because she is a fantastic Storyteller now Sarah started Spanx with just $5,000 in savings and her journey to becoming a self-made billionaire is absolutely jaw-dropping and entertaining and there is a habit in her story that you are going to steal okay because she got her big break with her product because she got her product into nean Marcus I mean talk about about starting at the top holy cow and she reflected on how this happened in this interview check this out nean Marcus was my first account and two things about that that
are are just something that I reflect back on one is everybody in the industry after I landed Neiman came up to me and said how in the world did you land Neiman Marcus and I would look at them and I'd say I called them [Laughter] this is why I love Sarah it's so obvious is it I called them and sometimes the most obvious thing to do isn't so obvious is it and in fact she reflected in this interview on why simply picking up the phone and calling the account the dream account that she wanted was
so unusual and I would look at them and I'd say I called them what do you do and they'd say oh my God we go to trade shows and we set up a booth and we've been doing it for seven years and everybody says around year six or seven that you get a chance with nemans I didn't even know there were trade shows so I often say what you don't know can be your greatest asset if you let it if you're not intimidated by the selft talk of I have no idea what I'm doing and
that shuts you down so if you can power through the I have no idea what I'm doing and actually see it as a positive and go that means I'm going to do it different I want that th% agree you know what's such a shame is that you talk yourself out of doing so many things because you say I don't know how to do this and what Sarah is telling you is her success came because she didn't know any better because she didn't follow what everybody else was doing because she's like okay if I want to
be at Neiman Marcus why not just pick up the phone figure out who the buyer is and start cold calling them and if you don't know any better you might just do better than everybody else that thinks they know what to do and this is so important of a habit make the call this is the Habit from Sarah Blakeley you don't get what you don't ask for you have to make the call you have to send the DM you have to show up you got to send the letter you don't get what you don't ask
for and what I love about Sarah is that she didn't sit around at a trade show and H that somebody walked by she put herself on a collision course with the thing that she wanted she asked for what she wanted she made the call that is a habit of a billionaire that is something you can do starting today there is a person that you want to ask out make the call there is something that you want to do at work have the conversation there is someone that you want to pitch DM them send them a
FedEx figure it out find out who the buyer is and make the call because you don't get what you're not willing to ask for and she reflected a little bit more and I want you to hear this this because the only thing that's preventing you from making the call and asking for what you want is your own selft talk you're the one that is telling yourself you can't do this you're the one that's telling yourself you don't know you're the one that's telling yourself you're not ready it's complete garbage you don't get what you're not
willing to ask for and by the way if there's somebody in your life that you're like oh boy they need to hear this send them this and let Sarah Blakeley and Mel Robbins give them the pep talk and the habits of billionaires that they need to Institute in their life and I want to go back into Sarah's story about how exactly she got into Neiman Marcus because it's one thing to make the phone call I mean that is a great move because you don't get what you don't ask for but now she's got one chance
to go from that cold call to Neiman Marcus to actually getting this buyer to put her product in Neiman Marcus so you're about to hear Sarah tell the story about walking into the intimidating headquarters of nean Marcus in Dallas she's flown there from Atlanta here's Sarah got a chance to go and cold call Neiman Marcus I flew on a plane from Atlanta where I live to Dallas and I met with the buyer and she was impeccably dressed I'm in the intimidating neeman's headquarters I had my lucky red backpack from college I had the Prototype and
a Ziploc bag from my kitchen and a color copy of the pack packaging that I had created on my friend's computer and um halfway through my pitch I was telling her what it is and I could tell I was losing her you know after seven years of cold calling and trying to sell things to people you get really good at reading nonverbals and I always say nonverbals tell you way more than the verbal and she goes on in the story she knew she was losing this woman because you can always tell when you're losing somebody
they start looking around or they look at their phone or they say that sounds great but they're shaking their head no and so she was picking up on all these Clues and I want to ask you something thing what would you do in that situation because I'll tell you what most people would do they would Panic not Sarah Blakeley what is the Habit that Sarah is teaching you you have to make the call you have to make the ask because you don't get what you're not willing to ask for and so what did Sarah do
she asked for what she wanted I just stopped and said you know what Diane will you come to the bathroom with me and she literally was like excuse excuse me I'm like I know it's a little weird but um can you just follow me to the bathroom and I'm going to actually show you what my product can do I'm going to go in the stall and she was like oh okay and she walked down the hall and I went in the stall and I put it on under my white pants and I came out so
I showed her before and then I showed her with the product on and she just sat there and she goes I get it it's brilliant and I'm going to try it in seven stores boom go Sarah she went from $5,000 and her red backpack pack from college her product in a ziplock bag and a print out from a friend's computer of the sample of the packaging to getting into seven stores in nean Marcus and that went all the way to a $ 1.2 billion company that's how you do it first of all make the call
because you don't get what you don't ask for and the second thing is stop talking yourself out of it doing things differently differentiates you all right we got two more to go and I want to jump right now into habit number five which comes from legendary video game designer sigaru mamoto now curu mamoto is not technically a billionaire but in my book he should be why because mamoto is the legendary video game designer behind some of the most iconic gaming franchises in history uh ever heard of Super Mario uh-huh The Legend of Zelda uh-huh and
the game that I spent my entire childhood playing Donkey Kong he is referred to as the father of modern video games and is celebrated for his Innovative contributions that has shaped the video game industry and popular culture and personally since gaming is a gajillion dollar industry and he's the father of it I'm just going to crown him an official billionaire what is his habit that you're going to steal his habit is that he regularly just wanders city streets and parks and allows them self to observe people and environments and this habit of wandering and people
watching has inspired all of the game worlds and the characters that he's created and it helps him to be creative now I don't have any audio from sigaru mamoto but we do have something that the acclaimed neuroscientist from MIT and Kings College London Dr tly sheret told us all about why this habit of wandering and changing your routine and stepping into new environments or learning new things why this matters so much Dr sheret runs the effective brain lab at University College London and MIT she's known as one of the most renowned psychology researchers that are
out there in the world today and one thing that she researches is this concept called habituation that's just a fancy word that explains that your brain and my brain it gets used to the things that you do over and over and in order to be creative in order to be inspired in order to think outside of the box you have to put yourself in different situations in fact she explained it this way when she appeared on the Mel Robbins podcast whatever kind of life you have you can actually shake things up a little bit it
can be something small like how do you commute to work what route do you take to work it could be small like that or it could be like maybe take a course and it doesn't it could be something online okay so maybe you you don't have the money to pay for like a new but take up a new skill or a new listen to a new podcast right so try to change things or maybe start talking to someone or be friend some someone who's different from the normal kind of people that you tend to interact
I'm not even you know like their personality is not the type that you usually are interacting with and by diversifying we are doing a few things we are dishabituating because now you know we have different inputs that we're not used to so just like curu mamoto is people that aren't exactly like you all of these things create new Connections in your mind that help stimulate creativity which is one of the habits of billionaires and there are so many examples of successful and inspiring people that are doing this out in the world in fact one of
the most acclaimed and celebrated writers of our time Maya Angelou whenever she would write she would rent a small hotel room to write in why because of all this research that you just heard Dr shered talk about she believed the unfamiliar environment and the lack of distractions helped her Focus entirely on her work so she'd rent the small room what would she bring a dictionary a Bible a deck of cards and check out the last one bottle of Sherry freaking love that in fact Christopher Robbins does the same thing he is getting his Masters right
now and he's also working on his first book so 3 days a week he goes down to a local coffee shop and he says that getting out of our house and his office and into a different environment where there's all kinds of people coming in and out and it's got different sounds it just is a place where he's way more creative you can steal this idea too this habit of getting out of your routine wandering putting yourself in environments that open up new ideas and new experiences that bring new connections and energy into your life
I freaking love this and again I'm just going to keep on pointing out these are free every one of these habits are free the only thing that's going to keep you from doing these habits is you and you already heard Sarah Blakeley say do not do that do not listen to the selft talk whether it is a habit of reading every day and forcing yourself to learn a skill that you're scared to learn like public speaking or whether it is getting more sleep because you know it's going to help you perform better whether you make
it a habit to take all those creative ideas that you're going to get from the habit of wandering around and you get them on paper or you get them on a Notes app or you put them on a note card so you establish this library of ideas to come back to or whether you're going to be like Sarah blankley and the Habit is make the call because you don't get what you don't ask for and that brings me to Habit number six of billionaires and this one comes from my dear friend Jamie klma jimie became
a billionaire for co-founding IT Cosmetics which she sold to L'Oreal for 1.2 billion dollar that made her the first female CEO of the L'Oreal brand in history and she is well known for her inspirational Journey as an entrepreneur and for just this Relentless ability to trust her gut in her words she calls that the difference between your knowing in your heart versus the nose that you're going to get from the outside world now Jamie has appeared twice on the Mel Robbins podcast she is one of your favorite guests to listen to and her habit is
very simple listen to your knowing here's Jamie inside in our gut if we get still if we listen to our soul right we get a knowing an intuition a still Small Voice a gut feeling every single moment in your life in your friendships in your joy in your you know go goals and dreams and Ambitions I believe Mel they come down to which one you listen to do you listen to the nose or do you listen to your knowing and this is the most important thing because our self-doubt will lie to us all day long
it will lie to us all day long and when we get still and ask oursel is that the truth right and you and you tune into your gut your your gut will tell you the right answer I don't believe your gut is ever wrong I believe that it either leads you to the next right step or the next right lesson I am going to repeat that your gut is not wrong because your gut is leading you where you are meant to go and often times your gut does lead you to a rejection or a no
why because you need that lesson you need that in order to know the next right step it is all ordered for you and your job is to trust your knowing to tune into your gut and to take action based on what you know to be true in your heart and here's what I'm going to tell you I'm going to tell you that all six of the habits that you and I have learned today are things that I think you know in your gut these are true not just because of the example of these extraordinarily successful
and inspiring people but because you know in your soul that this is is how you do remarkable things it's how you tap into your own potential and it's how you create things in your life that truly surprise you I mean I do this podcast because I do see a bigger future for you and you and I can be inspired by and borrow from the habits of these extraordinary billionaires and so let me just make sure you got them all tucked underneath your arm and you're going to take them with you today and you're going to
