The True Measure of Success: Making Your Mark Beyond the Money
Let's have a raw conversation about success – not the kind that looks good on Instagram, but the kind that matters when you're lying in bed at night.
I've been there.
Chasing the next big deal.
Building the empire.
Getting the fancier watch.
I was measuring my worth by my bank account and my status by my material possessions.
And you know what happened?
I almost lost the one person who believed in me before anyone else did – my wife.
I was so obsessed with "making it" that I was breaking what actually mattered.
Here's the truth I learned the hard way:
Impact beats income.
EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
Think about these questions:
When was the last time you had breakfast with your kids without checking your email?
When did you last take a real vacation where your phone stayed in your bag?
Remember the last time you sat in silence, just dreaming about your future?
Have you had a family dinner lately where work didn't dominate the conversation?
These are the real luxuries in life.
Not the Range Rover in your driveway.
Not the Rolex on your wrist.
Trust me, I have both, and neither gives me the joy of dancing with my kids and wife in our kitchen.
But let's get real – this isn't about abandoning your ambitions.
It's about redirecting them.
True success includes:
Time freedom
Mental clarity
Physical health
Deep relationships
A home filled with laughter
The ability to be present
And here's something else that's been on my mind: You've probably heard that "you become the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with."
I used to beat myself up over this, thinking I needed to be in all the "right rooms."
But that's bullshit.
The truth?
You become the average of the 5 people you ALLOW to influence you.
Game-changer, right?
You don't need to be in the same room as someone to be influenced by them.
You don't need their phone number or to be in their inner circle.
What you need is the wisdom to choose whose voice you let into your head and heart.
This realization is exactly why I'm launching something different.
The Relentless Community.
This isn't just another coaching program.
This is a carefully curated space where ambitious entrepreneurs can learn to balance the drive for success with the things that truly matter.
We're capping it at 35 people because I want every voice to be heard, every story to matter, and every member to get real, personal attention.
We kick off January 6th, and I'm looking for entrepreneurs who:
Are ready to redefine what success means to them
Want to make an impact while building their empire
Understand that the biggest flex isn't your net worth – it's having dinner with your family every night
If you're tired of sacrificing what matters for what pays, if you're ready to build success on your own terms, reply with "JFDI" for more information.
Remember, your legacy won't be measured by the deals you closed or the cars you owned.
It'll be measured by the lives you touched, the relationships you nurtured, and the impact you made.
Let's build that kind of success together.
To your impact and freedom,
mm
P.S. You're 6 months away from changing your life and your family tree. But first, you need to be willing to open your mind to change and put in the work.
