00:02:39.420 I've been in business for a long time.
00:02:40.980 And I've seen a lot of people that will see someone that they help.
00:02:45.560 And eventually, when they become rich, and this person did a lot of work for them, truly a lot of work for them, they're like, oh, I don't need it.
00:02:51.880 Now I can do whatever I want to do.

00:03:21.580 Never, ever take those for granted.
00:03:24.420 Unfortunately, many do.
00:03:26.140 And that typically comes from a place of arrogance and not valuing it and not thinking it's a big deal.
00:03:30.820 It's very simple.
00:03:31.420 By the way, 99% of people when they go, it's a big percentage, it's got to be over 90% of people, once they get what they want out of a person, they're off.
00:03:40.140 But that 10% who ends up keeping that relationship with that person long term.

00:03:46.720 I'm going to pick up the phone call no matter what meeting I'm in.

00:03:49.800 It's not 500 people.
00:03:50.780 It's a handful of people that can call that I'm going to pick up at any time.
00:03:53.600 And there's only a few people that call me that there's something going on.
00:03:55.860 I'm going to get on a plane and go to them.
00:03:57.500 Why?
00:03:58.160 Because those people changed my life.
00:03:59.720 You have those people and it's not a big list.
00:04:01.760 If you don't have many of them, go find those people.
