- Lessons I learned from Daymond John
In partnership with
Hey family! Trust that you had a great weekend!
I’m not sure if I shared this with you but a few months ago, I had the privilege of meeting and briefly speaking to Daymond John and the moment I walked into the room, he noticed me and said, “Bro, your fit & those Gucci shoes are 🔥😂”
But, as I shared with Daymond, around the time I was launching my previous law firm, the Robinson Law Group, in 2016, he had just released his book, “The Power of Broke” and it changed how I approached business. 💯
If you haven’t read it, here are a few takeaways:
1. "Constraints breed creativity. When you have less, you do more."
✅ Leverage your limitations to fuel innovation and drive success.
2. "Hustle beats talent when talent doesn’t hustle."
✅ Outwork the competition. Consistency and effort are everything.
3. "Resourcefulness is the ultimate resource."
✅ When money is tight, creativity becomes your currency.
4. "Embrace the grind, it’s what separates the winners from the rest."
✅ Success comes to those who thrive in the struggle.
5. "Don’t let fear hold you back—let it push you forward."
✅ Use fear as a motivator to take risks and chase your dreams.
6. "Being broke forces you to connect with people authentically."
✅ When you can't afford to fail, relationships become your most valuable asset.
7. "Success isn’t about what you have, it’s about what you do with what you have."
✅Maximize your potential by making the most of every opportunity.
8. "The power of broke is the power of humility and hunger."
✅ Stay humble, stay hungry, and always keep pushing forward.
These takeaways has shaped how I approach business and adding value to my community, and I’m looking forward to doing just that (and more!) at the 2024 Millie CEO Summit.
