In this episode I speak about the cards you have been dealt with in life and my own personal hand. Show Notes:Intro - Today we speak about dealing with the cards you are dealtPresent World - Crazy times going on at the moment talking of exactly the topic on hand today. How we deal with it? How we move forward? What situation you were born in to.Personal Experience - A privileged upbringing yes but I was taught from my parents you really don’t get anywhere without hard hard work. As a young lad, I was lazy, didn’t work, didn’t take responsibility for my actions and probably in a way thought I was too stupid. My mum was a stay at home mum who did everything for me and my sisters. As a child I didn’t see much of my dad as he was always working to get to where he is now being a very successful business man. So from a young age I experienced the work you have to put in to achieve good things and have a nice life for your family. It was rammed in to me I needed to work hard. My parents always made it known to us, nothing is given and we have to graft. I only started doing this after failing a school year, writing off my car and having a house party (when parents were away). You could call that a big turning point in my life. Fortunate - I think for me, I am lucky and I am grateful. To be born into the family I am. I take inspiration of my mum and dads relationship and my dad literally is my best mate. So, ok I have been dealt a good hand in life, but I used and am using that hand to its maximum potential. Not using a good hand - There are people who have incredible upbringings and born into a different world amount of wealth, however more often then not can’t even look after themselves. More often then not, these people have no drive, no motivation and are perfectly happy spending the families moneyDealing with a bad hand - Look at March Rashford, born in a rough estate in Manchester. Coming from the bottom - I know a lot of people who started at the bottom yet are some of the most hard working people I know. Why? Because they know how it feels to be there and will do everything in their power to never go back. Gary Vee always talks about this fact. Conclude - You have one life. Joe Rogan & Kevin Hart quote about life being a book. And to finish on another Gary Vee quote “doesn’t matter where you start, it matters where you finish and how you get there”http://alexfitcleland.com
