Cody, what's up, buddy?

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:24

Dude, excited to be here, and there isn't a more important topic that all of us, including myself, always need to remind ourselves of, and that's personal development.

Mike HambrightHost

1:31

Yeah.

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:31

Maybe a quote to start this off is Jim Rohn, one of the greats, right? He's the one that taught Tony Robbins, Darren Hardy.

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:38

He's the OG.

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:39

He says, "Rarely does a man's income exceed their level of personal development."

Mike HambrightHost

1:44

Mm.

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:44

And I think it gets so easy as an entrepreneur to just go chase the dollars, go chase the business, and he's suggesting something completely different.

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:52

He says, "No, no, no-

Mike HambrightHost

1:52

Yeah

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:52

... chase personal development, and the business will chase you, or the money-

Mike HambrightHost

1:56

Yeah

C

Cody HofhineGuest

1:56

... will chase you, or the A players will chase you, but it's as a result of who you're becoming."

Mike HambrightHost

2:01

Yeah.

Mike HambrightHost

2:01

Uh, I know we're gonna talk about a lot of this stuff, even proximity, uh, today.

Mike HambrightHost

2:04

I, I wanna share a quick story.

Mike HambrightHost

2:06

So, you know, at the time we're recording this, this, this, uh, documentary on Martin Short just came out, uh, Martin Short the comedian, right? He's a funny guy.

Mike HambrightHost

2:14

He's been around for decades and decades.

Mike HambrightHost

2:16

And they give this whole documentary, and they show, like, from right out of high school, he like...

Mike HambrightHost

2:20

I think he dropped out of college, or he was only in college for a year or two, and then he went to be part of a comedy troupe.

Mike HambrightHost

2:26

And if you go back and you look, it was, like, Steve Martin, Chevy Chase.

Mike HambrightHost

2:29

It was, like, John Candy.

Mike HambrightHost

2:31

Like, all these people were together as, like-

C

Cody HofhineGuest

2:32

All the greats

Mike HambrightHost

2:33

... teenagers or early 20s, and just that proximity.
