00:00:00.000 Most people will do more for other people

00:00:01.860 than they'll do for themselves.

00:00:03.280 My third company, but the first one that won,

00:00:05.340 the first one that made me a millionaire,

00:00:06.900 the first hire was this guy named Andrew.

00:00:08.680 And the reason I didn't give up

00:00:10.180 is because he had a three-year-old at home

00:00:12.960 and his wife was pregnant.

00:00:14.440 And I knew, for me, no big deal if this thing fails.

00:00:17.540 For him, it would have changed his life.

00:00:19.140 He had a house, he had a mortgage, he had to make payroll.

00:00:21.460 At the time, freaked me out.

00:00:23.240 Talk about stress and distress, I was like,

00:00:25.580 oh man, what the heck, I didn't sign up for this.

00:00:27.480 I thought he was 24 and didn't have any kids

00:00:29.760 and turns out I got married young and had a family

00:00:31.880 and is trusting me to quit his amazing job

00:00:34.480 to come work with me in a startup.

00:00:35.920 Like I had to perform.

00:00:37.220 I just kept showing up, showing up, showing up,

00:00:39.240 not for me, but for Andrew.

00:00:41.260 I now in hindsight, see it as such a blessing.

00:00:44.160 No pressure, no diamonds.
