Entrepreneurial Role Models:
Ryan Deiss founder of Digital Marketer
When business started difficulties overcame:

I regret it now being older and looking back it makes me wince at some of those memories. I would get offended much too easily… Most people would offend me eventually and I would use that as a chip on my shoulder to beat them in business or whatever.

Other Quotes From the Chat with Matt LaClear:
- “I was moulding the circumstances of the day negatively with my mind and it was a self-fulfilling prophecy of making bad things happen because I was constantly expecting bad things to happen. And if you are constantly expecting bad things to happen as an entrepreneur they are going to happen and you are going to attract them like a magnet. Usually if you can get past that hurdle, I would say do it as soon as possible because that’s the biggest hurdle I see holding entrepreneurs back”
- “how you think of yourself is how you are. And what you think about the most is what you are to”
- “you are what you are when you are being squeezed by somebody. And so when somebody is upsetting you and how you handle it is how you are”
- “get good at charisma. Charisma can be learned. Charisma will help with the emotions because to learn charisma even in a book and to practice it there is a lot of YouTube channels you can practice it on. But to practice charisma is to have power over your emotions because you have got to do that to be charismatic”
- “Once you get that positive mindset going for your business nothing can stop you. As long as you have faith in yourself and you keep a positive mindset and you don’t quit it’s amazing what you can accomplish”
- “What you think about your business that’s what it is, what you think about your skills as an entrepreneur that’s what it is, and if you think you can’t do it you can’t and if you think you can you can. Because as a person thinks that’s what they are”
