I feel I'm so close I could taste sweet victory.
00:00:10.000
Yeah, why would you bet on Goliath when we got Bet David?
00:00:16.000
This world of entrepreneurs, we get no value to haters.
00:00:24.000
Who was playing? Cowboys against Detroit. Great game.
00:00:28.000
Private plane that they have and had a good time.
00:00:31.000
But you know what's funny is while we were here,
00:00:34.000
And if you've never been, it's absolutely amazing.
00:00:42.000
You get a chance to see how they make the Ford F-150.
00:00:49.000
while we were having dinner last night at Roast
00:00:59.000
And there's a lot of obviously different conversations
00:01:02.000
about the person who came into the city and changed the game
00:01:06.000
and created a company, employed so many people.
00:01:09.000
Where if you work for Ford, you're pretty much set in this city here.
00:01:16.000
When you go in the museum and you look who Henry Ford was,
00:01:20.000
everything he did, he saw things from a lens of,
00:01:35.000
and with people around me is the following game.
00:01:37.000
Maybe you ought to try playing this game this week.
00:01:40.000
No matter where you go, restaurant, business, city, sports team,
00:01:48.000
no matter where you go, what you do, ask yourself,
00:01:52.000
if I ran this business, what would I do differently?
00:01:57.000
Where's an area where they're leaving a lot of money on the table?
00:02:00.000
Where's there an opportunity here for me to build it better,
00:02:10.000
Hey, how would you run it better in this restaurant here?
00:02:13.000
What do you think you like about what they're doing here?
00:02:16.000
And get into that mental state of doing it better
00:02:18.000
because that's what a lot of these guys like Henry Ford did.
00:02:26.000
I want to say till 60s Detroit was known as the richest city in America
00:02:38.000
And then the NAFTA came out and Detroit changed
00:02:40.000
because free trade, not cars were being built in other parts of the world
00:02:47.000
But the moral of the story is one person changed the city of Detroit.
00:02:52.000
One, he owned a land, this place called Heinz Park.
00:02:57.000
And at one point he's like, I want to give this land to the city with one disclaimer.
00:03:11.000
You go to his museum, there's this painting on the wall.
00:03:14.000
And it's got numbers of everybody that was in that meeting that took place, I think, in the 30s.
00:03:20.000
Rockefeller, Edison, Hoover, Marie Curie, all these people that were there.
00:03:31.000
And that one person can be you and your family.
00:03:42.000
But it starts with one person who's a dreamer, who has a lens that looks at everything, saying,
00:03:54.000
And stay tuned for some big things coming out soon.
00:03:58.000
