How I Stay Focused

How do you stay focused? I stay focused, very easily. I'm completely, utterly, 100 percent driven by gratitude. I'm extremely aware of where I was born, and you guys, I was born in the most communist country-- at its height-- and I was the most capitalistic kid ever born, right? I had no chance of leaving the Soviet Union-- nobody did, in all those years. Nobody left Russia, guys. What happened was, there was this singular little moment, where Russia had a food problem, because they made a lot of bad decisions-- overall, they did-- and they traded Russian-born Jews, to America and Israel-- they made a pact-- where America traded wheat for Jews. I was traded for wheat and was able to get out of the Soviet Union in 1978. Insane. So I'm very grateful; I'm very grateful for the fact that I have incredible parents, I've got very fortunate DNA-- I suck at 99 percent of things in the world. I just happen to be good at one of the things that really matters, which is how to make money, right? It's a good thing to be good at, right? I mean it, I really, really struggle in almost everything, but I'm a good businessman, I'm an entrepreneur. it's a good-- it's one of the good things to have, for sure. And so, I'm just driven by gratitude. I'm super aware that we have only have one life. You know, from what I know. And I'm super aware that I was gifted with something that matters, that I can communicate, that I can impact others, while benefiting myself. I'm super grateful. It keeps me very laser-focused. You know? Very laser-focused. I am fuckin' thankful, man.
