Respect isn’t easily or quickly given to you. You earn it by the way you carry yourself. This includes your confidence, demeanor, attitude, and approach to life.
Dress for success.

Tools, Not Answers
My purpose in life is not to give you the answers, but to give you the tools.
You will make dozens of important decisions each week of your life, especially in your 20s and 30s. If you need someone else to make those decisions for you, you’ll be bottlenecked without the ability to move forward. What you need are the TOOLS to be able to make decisions yourself.
What I do, as your father, is to train you on the tools and how to make decisions independently.

Brains AND Brawn
There’s a dangerous mentality that if you just put in the work and sacrifice enough then you will be successful. That’s absolutely necessary, but almost never sufficient.
If the willing to do the hard work and sacrifice is the “brawn,” then you also need “brains.” You have to be VERY smart about the moves make, why you make them, and how it sets you up for future success.
Brawn is not enough — you have to be really smart and make the right decisions along the way.
