As Central Texas braces for a record cold snap, Josie and I decided to head out to Puerto Rico for a few weeks and skip the madness. This is one of the real benefits of building a leverage-based business — not someday, but now. What I want you to hear clearly is this: everything you’re seeing me do is intentional and duplicatable. I’m not doing anything magical. I’m simply running a tight ship built on listings, systems, and leverage — and that’s exactly what I’m teaching you to do inside the Inner Circle. Already, many of you have shared that you’re experiencing a level of calm and clarity you haven’t felt in years… or ever in this business. That tells me we’re on the right track. For context, here’s what the pipeline looks like right now: • 5 new listings coming on the market within the next three weeks • 1 new build signing soon • 7 active listings currently in play That’s 13 deals in motion — and I fully expect to take additional listings while I’m overseas. The goal isn’t to work from the beach. The goal is to build a business that doesn’t require your constant presence to function. Stay focused on the process. Follow the systems. Don’t rush ahead. Freedom is built step by step — and you’re building it right now. Grateful to be walking this with you. 🙏🏽🤠

One thing that has to be understood when people ask me about how I use ChatGPT for business decisions, systems, or strategy is this: 👉 Your ChatGPT has to be trained. I didn’t just “start prompting.” I spent months and months training mine—intentionally. I’ve uploaded: - Over 1,000 pages of my own writing - Dozens of recorded videos - Hundreds of emails - Live lecture recordings - My DISC, Genius, and personality profiles Why? Because ChatGPT doesn’t just need to know what you want - it needs to understand who you are. How you think How you communicate in writing vs. live How you speak to one person vs. an audience How you make decisions What drains you vs. what energizes you Once that foundation is built, everything changes. Now when I ask questions, the responses are: - Aligned with my personality - Consistent with my philosophy - Grounded in my actual goals - Authentic to how I operate in the real world That’s why the recommendations I get aren’t generic.They’re personalized, practical, and usable. The key isn’t the prompt. The key is identity alignment. Train ChatGPT to understand you at a deep level first — then use it as a thinking partner, not a magic wand. That’s when it becomes powerful. 🤠🙏🏽

When I first built this training, I made a quiet commitment to myself that once we had enough Inner Circle Legacy Partners supporting the mission, I would unlock it and make it freely available. Thanks to our Inner Circle Founding Members and our early supporters, that moment has arrived! The Success with Listings Academy is now 100% supported by our Non-Profit 501c3! Going forward, my focus is less on selling content and more on building leaders, builders, and organizations.
