Grind While They Rest... Live Like They Dream: An homage to @GrantCardone

One of the great parts of living in a connected online world is that you oftentimes get to interact with outsize personalities and folks that you would otherwise simply not have access to. One of those people for me is Grant Cardone - whom I've been following closely for several years. Grant runs a number of companies including Cardone University (which if you haven't checked that out you need to do so HERE ), but it's Grant's overall approach to lift up and motivate people that's drawn and kept my attention over time.  

I've talked in this space in recent weeks about the 'glamorization' of being an entrepreneur and while there are some who claim that Grant is a self-promoter who doesn't understand hard work and the grind, I absolutely disagree. Is Grant successful? You bet! Does he livestream from his jet? Yup? Does that rub some folks the wrong way? Of course it does... but here's the kicker. What no one saw or experienced was the time, energy and effort that he put into getting himself from his early life to the broad based success that he experiences in his life today. Does he still grind it out? Every day as far as I can tell and what I've learned from him over the course of the last several years (via his books and now following him on social media and his GrantCardone TV platform) has been nothing short of invaluable.  

As you start your Friday - think about this. Are you grinding while others are resting? Are you working every day to make your dreams a reality? If not, take a minute and ask yourself - do I want to 'live like others dream'? If you do - get back to work! Make it a great Friday all! #NoLetUp #WhateverItTakes #10XYourlife #startuplife #GrindingDaily #LivingMyDreams
