On today’s Young Wealth Show, Jason Hartman talks with author, Grant Cardone, about philosophies to live by, getting where you want to be and the importance of who you know. One of Cardone’s latest books, The 10X Rule, poses some interesting points about the fundamental ways in which we go about our daily lives.

Key Takeaways

02.30 – You can totally change your life by living by the mantra: Commit first, figure the rest out later.

06.00 – Constructing a business plan for a totally new business can simply be a waste of time because there’s no way you could plan for everything that could come up.

07.50 – When it comes to setting targets, you need to push yourself. Setting ‘realistic goals’ often ends up in a loss of excitement for your work. The 10X Rule is about thinking beyond and re-inspiring people.

09.50 – Don’t be put off by ‘ridiculous’. One target can be just as ridiculous as another: why write a business plan for $1 million when you can write one for $10 million?

12.00 – Grant Cardone’s upcoming book deals with issues about the middle class, including whether it even exists.

15.30 – With both sides crushing the middle class, the only option is to get rich, and you can do it.

16.00 – Never underestimate the power of saying ‘yes’ to things, and where that can take you.

17.30 – Our culture of not taking risks – even of just not talking to strangers – is the riskiest situation we could put ourselves in. What we lose from not taking risks is extensive.

18.00 – If it’s true that your income is the average of the 5 people you spend most time with, you can only expand yourself if you meet new people.

19.45 – The people you know right now won’t change your life. Meet new people, they’ll change your life tomorrow.

21.00 – Make a list of who you need to meet who can change your life.

23.50 – If you’re already kidding yourself about having just a couple of areas of your life being great, stop and make everything great. Make everything 10X.

24.50 – To get what you want, every day you have to do things you don’t want to do. You’ll set yourself apart as being one of the few who does what is necessary to get the job done.

26.30 – Information can be found about Grant Cardone’s work at www.tiredofmissingsales.com, www.cardoneuniversity.com, on his YouTube channel, through typing his name into Google, or through following him on Twitter @GrantCardone.
