The Exchanges

Q maybe not even meeting other people, you know, not in a relationship and married like you newly are, and isn't sure where to go next. To get even to, from level one to level two, just to start making money. Like, what are the changes you made to do that, and what would a young, broke dude who got a chance to talk to Louis, what would you tell him?

A Uh, I'd probably say three things. The first three things that came into mind, I would, I would get a physical practice first, like really master your body, because if you're not feeling confident within yourself, you haven't mastered a routine of rigor or discipline or consistency around some type of working out. And when you master your physical health, or at least you're on a journey of mastering it, it doesn't mean you have to have a six pack or be shredded or anything like that. But if you have a consistent program with that, 30, 60 minutes a day, you're gonna feel more empowered because you're taking back responsibility of your own agency. Second thing I would say is find a spiritual mentor. You know, when you're lost, you need a spiritual guide in your life, and if you aren't able to tap directly to God or your belief system of why I'm here, then lean on someone you admire. Find someone you admire. I don't care if it's a sports coach, a business leader who follows practices you admire or a pastor or something like that. Find someone that you admire who is living a life of high values and integrity, because ultimately you want to be living that life. You don't want to be living out of integrity because it may be fun for a while, but you'll always hurt people along the way and ultimately hurt yourself along the way.

Q And then, and then what do you do next? So now you've got your style. Now you've got your story. Now you've got your personality. What do you do next?

A So the first part is really understanding and having awareness about you. That's what it is. It's like reflecting on my story, reflecting on my style, getting my personality style so I understand what that is. And then reflecting on my whole strategy around money my entire life to where I am today. And once I have a kind of a blueprint around what that is, then there are seven Habits for creating financial freedom. And once we start to heal and mend and take ourselves to money therapy, then we can create financial success from a healthier place. Not from a place of, I need to prove myself, I'm not enough, I need more to feel good about me, but this will bring me happiness. So once we get to that kind of foundation first, then there's seven habits. The first one is the mindset habit. And this is what I think A lot of people think, when I have money, then I'll give. Then I'll be more generous. But the wealthiest people in the world start with generosity, even when they don't have a lot to give. I'm sure you've heard the Tony Robbins story about when he had, like, 10 dollars in his pocket one day. He was, like, going broke. He had no money. He didn't know where the money was gonna come in, and he was at a restaurant. He took himself to, like, his final dinner. He was like, alright, I'm broke after this dinner.
