But I know 76 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 4: you have been an author, a king so to speak 77 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 4: behind empowerment events for men. 78 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: Why yeah, Well, when men get in position financially and 79 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 3: we'll become emotionally whole. Our families stay together, our children 80 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 3: stay off the streets. Great things happen when men are empowered. 81 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 3: When they are when they have the resources and the 82 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 3: relationships that they need, their marriagans are going to be happier. 83 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 3: Divorce rates go down, unemployment rates begin to go down, 84 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 3: entrepreneurship rates go up. When men get in position in 85 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: our communities and our homes, and that has to be 86 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 3: our focus, especially as young people and especially as minority. 87 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 3: We have to get in position because there's nobody coming 88 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 3: to save our men. We got to work together to 89 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 3: save each other. 90 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: Well, it was really true. 91 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:32,239 Speaker 4: You know, I've lived in born and races in Houston, 92 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 4: Dr Watkins, and lived in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, 93 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 4: and currently live in Atlanta and every one of those cities. 94 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: You know. 95 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 4: You know, black stories, negative black stories lead and unfortunately 96 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 4: a lot of them tied to men in violent crimes 97 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 4: or robbery. And that's that's the image that you know, 98 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 4: our young people that people are other races, especially white 99 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 4: people tend to have of African American men. So we 100 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 4: already stereotype every morning, news and afternoons because of the 101 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 4: color of our skin. And these type of events kind 102 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 4: of like help us out too, because we can fall 103 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 4: victim to the stereotype. You you know, if you keep 104 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: telling somebody that that these type of people stealing, these 105 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 4: type of people are Qreat Robbert, you can start doubting 106 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 4: who you are and whether you. 107 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: Can be successful in this business. 108 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: Correct, absolutely, you know, one thing you always say and 109 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 3: I listen to you intently. We have to change the narrative. 110 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 3: And so we got to get out of talking into 111 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 3: actually doing. And there is a remnant of people, a 112 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 3: remnant of men who say, you know what, enough is 113 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: enough enough with the stereotypes. I'm breaking out of this. 114 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 3: But we can't do it ourselves. We've got to come 115 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 3: out of our basements, out of our depression, out of 116 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 3: our loneliness, out of our brokenness, out of our insecurities, 117 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 3: and say, you know what, life is not about me. 118 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 3: It's about me helping another man. And when we do that, 119 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 3: because other races do that, that's how a white brothers 120 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 3: has been able to survive all this time. Our Jewish 121 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 3: brothers been able to survive all the time because they 122 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 3: group together and they work together. But they have to 123 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 3: have a common cause. It's not just about money. It's 124 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 3: about our children and our children's children. We all have 125 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 3: the same cause. And when we come together, this is 126 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: no greater talent, in my opinion, than it is of 127 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 3: a black man who's working with another black man. That's 128 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 3: why the world fights so hard to keep us separated. 129 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 3: But when we come together, businesses, families, everything, money begins 130 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 3: to happen, and abundance and gets you benefits everybody, Right, 131 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 3: that's a benefit. 132 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 4: And that is so important that people hear that because 133 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 4: sometimes we just don't care. We just want to stop 134 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 4: the success stories. Again of talking to doctor Robert Watkins 135 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 4: his event that I'll be honored at.

He's been doing this. 150 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 4: He's been reaching back and grabbing you know that famous 151 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 4: photo of a black arm reaching down, another black arm 152 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 4: grabbing in you pulling it up. That's been your mantra. 153 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 4: That's been your manto. Tell us about that other event. 154 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 3: Well, Orlando, every city, as you mentioned, and you live 155 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 3: in many cities, and thank you for for laying that 156 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 3: out force. Each city has its own personality. Orlando is 157 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:51,119 Speaker 3: different than Atlanta. Orlando is a is a new black city, 158 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 3: as I call it. It's kind of maybe where Atlanta 159 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 3: was probably thirty years ago. While there's more than thirty 160 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 3: five hundred people a day are moving to Orlando, and 161 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 3: so Atlanta was like that some time ago. So you 162 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 3: have a lot of new relationships there. And so what 163 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 3: we did in Orlando, we brought together five or six 164 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 3: hundred brothers came together for that Kings in Prices Orlando, 165 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 3: and it was new even so many people. The pastors 166 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 3: didn't know each other, the business people didn't know each other, 167 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: the professional class didn't know each other, the media didn't 168 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 3: know each other. So bringing those guys together the room 169 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 3: was really special.

And so I always tell people everybody's not 368 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 3: cut off cut out to be an entrepreneur, but everyone 369 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 3: is cut out to be an investor. What does that 370 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 3: mean taking the money you have and investing it in something? 371 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 3: The question is what should we be investing our money? 372 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 3: In right now, we should be investing our money in 373 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 3: anything that God has made, anything like gold, silver, real estate, oil, commodities, food, 374 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 3: anything that is in its raw material is going to 375 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 3: appreciate when the economy gets economy gets bad, and the 376 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 3: economy is going to get tougher, it's going to get darker. 377 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 3: And so what we do is advise people. I don't 378 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,239 Speaker 3: care if you have one hundred dollars, I don't care 379 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 3: if you have five hundred dollars. What if you have 380 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 3: at the end of the month, before you spend that 381 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 3: money on a dinner that you're just going to kind 382 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 3: of burp and it's going away, before you spend that 383 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,479 Speaker 3: money on shoes, call Robert Watkins and let's grow that 384 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 3: money that that hundred dollars to five hundred dollars to 385 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 3: one thousand dollars to one hundred thousand dollars to a 386 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 3: million dollars, maybe over four or five years. We can 387 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 3: show you how to do that and do it safely 388 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 3: with very little risk, because it's up to us to 389 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 3: build generational wealth. The bank is not going to tell 390 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 3: you how to build generational wealth. They're going to tell 391 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 3: you how to get in debt to get a car, 392 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 3: or how to get in debt to get a help. 393 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 3: They're not going to tell you how to build generational wealth. 394 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 3: That's our responsibility, and so we're bringing all these people 395 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 3: together to help do that. But if you can't make 396 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 3: the conference, you need to give us a call, and 397 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 3: we don't care what you have. Just have a little 398 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 3: bit of discipline to follow the instructions. We've set people 399 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 3: up to own bed and breakfast and restaurants and hotels 400 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 3: and motels and set companies anything that has been making money. 401 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 3: We've been a part of it. And we have our 402 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 3: own financial company as well to help move you along 403 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 3: a little bit further in life. You know, you have 404 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 3: to have an advisor. 405 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 4: Right because that's the whole thing is that you know, 406 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 4: I went through life and I've done a lot of things, 407 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 4: but I never had advisor that I trusted. I'm gonna 408 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 4: be honest with you, and that's the key word right there. 409 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 4: I have people in my financial planners, but I don't 410 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 4: know if I trust you, because guess what, you really 411 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 4: have to be patient. You have to understand the long run, 412 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 4: you know, like you know, like I said, compound and interest, 413 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 4: that was the word I never understood, and then my 414 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 4: wife said that that's been around forever. 415 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: I just looked that though, okay, thank you, thank you. 416 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 4: Let me realize I could have put something in thirty 417 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 4: years ago and we wouldn't need talking to nobody right 418 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 4: now because that. But because you hear about stock, you 419 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 4: hear about all. But there's simple processes that the bank 420 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 4: won't tell you about. Why is it that we go 421 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 4: to these banks? Let me ask you this, doctor, Robert Watkins, 422 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 4: how should we approach going into a bank? 423 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: Should we do some things differently? 424 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 4: Or you just won't win going into a bank trying 425 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 4: to get financial success. 426 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 3: Well, first of all, you have to understand the purpose 427 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 3: of a bank is not to make you money. The 428 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 3: only thing a bank can do at this point is 429 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 3: cash my check. The bank is in I was going 430 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 3: to cuss the bank is in the business of taking 431 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 3: people's money and using it to loan to other people. 432 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 3: That's the whole purpose of the bank. So I told 433 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 3: a group of pastors this morning, I was I was 434 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 3: ministering in black churches bring in nineteen billion dollars a month, 435 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 3: I mean nineteen billion dollars a year. Right, But the 436 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 3: reason why we don't feel it reason why we're not 437 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 3: sending kids to college and building facilities to the elderly. 438 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 3: The reason why we don't fill nineteen billion dollars in 439 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 3: Black America, it's because it's strapping thirty billion dollars in debt. 440 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 3: So when you have a debt mindset, like there's a 441 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 3: better way to get a house other than you just 442 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 3: getting Alan for thirty years. There's a better way of 443 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 3: you getting a part other than getting Alan for seven years. 444 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 3: The cars don't even number worth anything after five years. 445 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 3: So it's our mindset and approach to it. And so 446 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 3: your approach to bank should be I have money, I 447 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 3: have a vision. You need what I have. I don't 448 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 3: need you, you need me. And so the mindset is, 449 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 3: I'm doing your favor by putting my money in your 450 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 3: bank and so for that and I'm doing it consistently. 451 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 3: If I have a job, You're bringing a lot of 452 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 3: power to an entity that is acting like it doesn't 453 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 3: need you, and it does need you. And so the 454 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 3: first thing we have to understand is it is the 455 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 3: mindset of you have the power. Second, maybe you mentioned 456 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 3: compound and interests. Einstein said that is the great money multiplier, 457 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 3: and it really is and that is something that we 458 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 3: all need to learn. And that is something that that 459 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 3: is putting your money to work. As I said earlier, 460 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 3: everybody's not cut out to be an entreneur, but everybody's 461 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 3: cut out to be an investor. You need to educate 462 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 3: yourself on compound and interests and find out which entities, 463 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 3: which banks, or which investment banks, which dots have that 464 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 3: type of mode, that type of strategy to put your 465 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 3: money to work. Because money makes a terrible, terrible boss, 466 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 3: but it makes a great employee. So we have to 467 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 3: talk about how can I put this five hundred dollars 468 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 3: to work? And we have strategies to do that. So 469 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 3: a savings account, it doesn't make sense for you to 470 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,479 Speaker 3: have a savings account with one thousand dollars in it 471 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 3: and you have a credit card with ten thousand dollars 472 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 3: on it. It account is giving you one percent interest 473 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 3: as the credit card has twenty three percent interest rate 474 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 3: on it. It makes no sense keeping a thousand dollars there, right, 475 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 3: take a thousand dollars all the savings account and pay 476 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 3: off and put it towards that that credit card. It's 477 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 3: just small things like that that can help you build wealth, 478 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 3: And it was the last thing I will say. The 479 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 3: end goal can't be making money. The end goal has 480 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 3: to be building wealth. There's a difference. The wealth is 481 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 3: is anything that can be handed down from generation to generation. 482 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 3: That should be our mindset. Nobody's gonna want your beat 483 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 3: up jellopey card, and when you die, nobody's even gonna want, 484 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 3: you know, your red bottom shoes, your thirty two inch weaves. 485 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 3: Nobody's gonna want any of that stuff that's not wealth. 486 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 3: So the issue is what can I leave behind for 487 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 3: my children? And that's what I need to work on. 488 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: Wow. 489 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,479 Speaker 4: You know, one of the things that thank you for 490 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 4: that advice. One of the things that when we talk 491 00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 4: about financial security at the event, you'll be taken dealing 492 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 4: with men's, especially black men's mental health. And I remember 493 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 4: when I first got my first writer's job back in 494 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 4: ninety three on Men and the Boys. It was starring 495 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 4: Steve Harvey, and every Friday they were white, they would 496 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,479 Speaker 4: go to a therapist and I just didn't understand why 497 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 4: these white dudes kept going to these therapists. But that's 498 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 4: you know, that's the number of years ago we talked 499 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 4: about thirty years ago, where I saw this process being 500 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 4: played out at a job. It was accepted in Hollywood 501 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 4: that this was fine. And the black community still is 502 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 4: denying the stress. And we're born in the stress because 503 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 4: of the color of our skin, the way we're being 504 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 4: serious type. So we live a stressful life, but we 505 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 4: are not seeking out mental support. Why is that and 506 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 4: how it's being made available at the event. 507 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 3: Well, it's still made available because one of the major 508 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 3: issues is emotional insecurity is what I call it, and 509 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 3: other communities understand. If I don't keep my life together, 510 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 3: I'm going to be poor. If I don't keep my 511 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 3: mirrorge together. If I don't if I don't keep my sanctity, 512 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 3: if I allow stress to overtake me, it's going to 513 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 3: ruin my health. It's going to ruin my capacity to 514 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 3: make money, my capacity to be productive. If I shut 515 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 3: down and I start shutting other things that are important 516 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 3: to me down, like my children and my family. If 517 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 3: I start shutting down, I'm going to I'm not going 518 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 3: to be any good to anybody. So you're part of 519 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 3: your prosperity and your financial plan has to be emotional holeness. 520 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 3: So that's why guys on Wall Street, who's on tremendous, 521 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 3: tremendous pressure go to these therapists. That's why pastors do it, 522 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 3: That's why business leaders do it. I do it, my 523 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 3: wife does it. We're very successful and we do something 524 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 3: called marriage maintenance. I look forward to those sessions. It's great. 525 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 3: It's keeping me on track, and it's keeping my language 526 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 3: on track's keeping my vision focus, it's keeping me focused. 527 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: So it's allowing me to be present with my daughters. 528 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 3: Has allowing me to be present with my mother does 529 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 3: allowing me to be present even on this phone call. 530 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 3: And I have a lot of things going on right now, 531 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 3: but what keeps me focused is those therapy sessions in 532 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 3: keeping me emotionally hall. So the question is why don't 533 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 3: more of us do this? Because we're afraid. We're afraid 534 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 3: to ask for help. We're afraid to say, you know what, 535 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 3: I'm scared. I'm scared of losing my life. I'm scared 536 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 3: of losing my house. I'm scared of losing my job. 537 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 3: I am scared, and there's nobody I can talk to. 538 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 3: That's the money you should pay to go see someone 539 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 3: like doctor Tart, who's going to be at Kings and 540 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 3: Priests and he's going to help you get through that. 541 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 3: And that's a part of that whole unity thing.
