What I learned about life and business from working with leather... 1.) Skills shouldn't be rushed; good things take time. 2.) You will suck at first, so did Mozart, keep going. 3.) Don't compare your work to someone else's...their aptitude may be higher than yours, but that doesn't make you less skilled because they learned it faster. 4.) Going slowly, attention to detail, and willingness to screw up create heirloom quality products that sell for 10-20x more than mass produced crap. I used to charge $500 for an heirloom quality sheath. 5.) Using hand tools is cathartic and stress relieving. Take the time to get good at something that you can do with your hands. Creating recurring income that handles your monthly nut and them some gives you the freedom to pursue things you enjoy for active income.

St. Joseph, the earthly father of our Lord, wasn't just a regular man. St. Joseph was chosen by God to raise Jesus in love and virtue. Tomorrow, 2 hours from now, is his feast day. You don't have to be Catholic or Orthodox to admire the man for who he was, and what he did for our Lord and our Blessed Mother. He was chosen for his love of God and of his own virtue. He was just, righteous, and entrusted by God to raise His only Son. St. Joseph was a man of great character, and masculine to his core. He was a carpenter, worked with his hands, built things that lasted. Boys take, men give. St. Joseph was a giver. He did 2 major things. He loved people, and did whatever God told him to do. Thank you St. Joseph for your example. Just like we can ask our friends to pray for us, God is the god of the LIVING, and St. Joseph is alive in Heaven. St. Joseph, pray for us!

Module 3, Lesson 6 is probably one of the most important lessons by far, and I believe from all in the entire course for me. I personally hurt the most by resisting structure, as it leads to consistent failure instead of the consistency that will bring the success! The lack of complete discipline will always be on the way unless we fight it. Then everything will fall in to it's place! Great lesson and reminder!

I learned so much about people, and LL was amazing as usual... Like kintsugi art, your scars become GOLD. We all have them, most of us try to hide them. I'm in this group for the rest of the week, and going to EWTN in Alabama on Friday. Premium Members, I'm going to share with you some of the nuggets I got from being in this room with millionaire fund managers, who've raised BILLIONS of dollars in capital.

You never hit homeruns from the swings you don't take.... I've never spent a DIME on education that I've regretted, and I've spent a LOT of money on business education. College, eh...waste of time for me. But business education? Education on how to get free? No matter how much I spent on it, as long as I could get ONE great piece of information out of it that I can use, it was worth it. You need to bet on yourself to win, and that starts with education.
