How to Think Bigger with Grant Cardone

Justin Stoddart  
Hey, welcome back to the Think Bigger Real Estate Show. I'm your host, Justin Stoddart. I'm fired up excited about this opportunity. It's one that I've anticipated for a long, long time. 

Justin Stoddart  
That torso that you're seeing right there, that is the torso of THE Grant Cardone, I'm going to jump in here to introducing him here in just a minute. But this gentleman, 

Justin Stoddart  
let me just start by saying this--the passion and purpose of this show the Think Bigger Real Estate Show is to help you think bigger. It's help you to have a life of significance. 

Justin Stoddart  
Everyday Grant shows up in my newsfeed telling me that most people live a life that's just okay. 

Justin Stoddart  
It's just average. And you know, the recipe for changing your life, the recipe for changing who you are, 

Justin Stoddart  
what your family tree looks like, and the impact that you have in this world isn't that complicated. 

Justin Stoddart  
You know, it starts off this bookshelf behind me, which has a number of Grant's books on it, 

Justin Stoddart  
is a reflection of how it all begins. We have access to the best ideas. We live in the most amazing time in 

Justin Stoddart  
the history of the world where we can find people that are achieving at the highest levels and we can 

Justin Stoddart  
have conversations with them. We can have them in our car by listening to their podcasts. 

Justin Stoddart  
Now, in addition to that, you can take a next step further and you can start to get closer to these people. 

Justin Stoddart  
I had the great privilege of being a part of having Grant come and speak to a big audience. 

Justin Stoddart  
It's been about a year and a half ago, Old Republic Title, and he wowed the crowd. 

Justin Stoddart  
We're still talking about the impact that he's had upon us.

Grant Cardone  
I don't know why you guys haven't had me back. That's the sad part of that deal. 

Grant Cardone  
I don't know why a group that successful would do something, they know it worked, and then not repeat it again.

Justin Stoddart  
Well, this is a probably a great segue into that. I'm sure that the people that I work for Grant, they're going to be seeing this and this will be a great commercial.

Grant Cardone  
I loved being there. I love that audience. I love the way the think was. That company has proven itself 

Grant Cardone  
for so long and has continued to transform itself. I thought we were going to do some big stuff together.

Justin Stoddart  
Well, let's get that started. Let's kick that back off. So the impact that Grant's had upon me has been massive. 

Justin Stoddart  
This TB behind me here stands for Think Bigger, in part because I read Grant's book, you know, the 10X Rule. 

Justin Stoddart  
I read that three or four times and its impacted me in incredible ways. 

Justin Stoddart  
And now I've got the great privilege of having Grant come on to the Think Bigger Real Estate Show 

Justin Stoddart  
and inspire all of us to think bigger. Here's the thing that is really inspiring... 

Justin Stoddart  
Grant looks like you're in a hotel room, right? You see, Grant streams from all over the world and you can 

Justin Stoddart  
kind of tell like, when he's at his home. He's got his family around him and when he's not you can tell and 

Justin Stoddart  
this environment here didn't look like his home. Grant where you at? 

Justin Stoddart  
So Grant, tell us where you're at right now, which is gonna inspire each and every one of us.

Grant Cardone  
Yes, so I'm at my church right now. I spent the last five days doing services here working on me and my 

Grant Cardone  
you know, my blind spots. Like what don't I know? What can I learn? Like, I've seen so many people 

Grant Cardone  
reach or get to where I'm at particularly in the self, the self help the self improvement space where guys 

Grant Cardone  
are doing educational stuff. I mean I'm literally thinking about their names in my mind right now 

Grant Cardone  
guys that are living guys that aren't living. I mean BIG giant individuals that have had tremendous success 

Grant Cardone  
and legend kind of lifestyles, right? And some of these guys most of these guys actually quit learning. 

Grant Cardone  
They quit being a student.... and, and so there's one of my little girls right there and and, you know, 

Grant Cardone  
studying people that I've, either been able to read their books or like when I read somebody's book. 

Grant Cardone  
The other thing I do is I study their life, like what's really going on not just at the bank or on the bookshelf. 

Grant Cardone  
But you know, in their life, okay. And and their whole life. What was it? Like? I mean, did they just catch up? 

Grant Cardone  
You know, one guy gets a TV, you know somebody does a TV show about a book he writes and people 

Grant Cardone  
know about him. But if you look, if you look any deeper than that you just going to see a criminal, he 

Grant Cardone  
couldn't pay people, he back stole from people. I don't want that. That's not what I want in my life. 

Grant Cardone  
Yeah. So you got to be careful. You know, I got to be careful to I need to when I look find somebody that 

Grant Cardone  
is attractive to me to learn from. Even back to Biblical days, like study, who were they really, you know, 

Grant Cardone  
years ago in college, I was studying a guy that later I found out committed suicide. And I'm like, wait a 

Grant Cardone  
minute, man. I was collecting data from this cat thinking he was he was the mac-daddy. Yeah. And so 

Grant Cardone  
something must have been missing. So anyway. I'm here. I'm a student here, like I come here, I'm not 

Grant Cardone  
leading, I'm not educating I'm not doing, you know, seminar. I'm just here to learn. 

Justin Stoddart  
You're learning. It's interesting. I am in the process of reading a book called, "How Will You Measure Your Life" 

Justin Stoddart  
and it reminds me a lot of what you're saying. Clayton Christensen, the author, he talks about, he 

Justin Stoddart  
graduated from Harvard with some of the brightest minds in the world, came back 10 years later, and like,

Justin Stoddart  
 some of the most intelligent ones were in jail, like one of them was the CEO of Enron. Sometimes guys 

Justin Stoddart  
have success at the highest levels, but they give it all up and I love the fact that you're continuing to be a 

Justin Stoddart  
student and looking for your blind spots. And, you know, nourishing your soul, not just your mind. 

Justin Stoddart  
It's powerful for all of us to to keep our moral compass at the same time that we're going 10X with our business, right?

Unknown Speaker  
Yeah. Because it's easy. It's easy, you know, it's easy like you get, you know, you're hustling, you're working. 

Grant Cardone  
If you get a little you get a deal. You close the deal. Then you close the second ...
