Inspiration and motivation can come from lots of different places. Sometimes we find our biggest “ah-ha” moments far outside of the real estate space.

In episode #8, host Ernie “The Probate Fox” Vargas shares how his friendship with Chicken Soup for the Soul author Mark Victor Hansen has shaped his entrepreneurial journey. Hansen’s many books and seminars have helped Ernie not only define and achieve his dreams, but become a better person through Hansen’s generous example.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:

• [02:00] Experiencing rejection while door knocking and cold calling can mess with your head - Hansen’s flagship book, Chicken Soup For The Soul, was rejected over 140 times before a publisher picked it up.
• [05:01] How to wake up in the morning excited about life and what today will bring.
• [06:20] It doesn’t matter what age you are or where you are in life, dreams don’t have deadlines.
