Chapter summaries

Growing Up Second of Seven Brothers
Calum asks about the formative experiences that shaped Myron. Myron describes his strict parents, his father as a superhero figure, and values like loyalty, hard work and honesty taught in a poor household.
- •Myron was the second of seven brothers
- •His parents were stern and taught loyalty, hard work and truth-telling
- •Lessons were caught rather than taught, and parents used the Socratic method
- •His father built a kite from newspapers and grocery bags that won a contest
- •He first realized the family was poor in high school, driving the multicolored 'Golden Getaway Mobile'
Polio and the Gift of Gratitude
Calum raises Myron's polio and a quote calling it both the worst and best thing in his life. Myron explains the observation skills it gave him and describes seeing everyday abilities as gifts.
- •Polio made him watch how people move and play, building observation skills
- •Waking up, seeing, hearing, standing and having a house are all gifts
- •People feel entitled to gifts they lack while ignoring the ones they have
- •Myron says he was rich when he was poor
- •Calum observes that people with tough upbringings are often the most grateful
Awakening to Entrepreneurship: Dad's $900 Day and Flipping Cars
Myron explains where his entrepreneurial inspiration came from: his father quitting employment and earning $900 for a plumbing job, and his own car-flipping at 19 to 21. Calum and Myron conclude that transformation begins with awareness.
- •His dad vowed at Myron's age 16 never to work for anyone again, then earned more working for himself
- •A plumbing job showed Myron he could make money without a job
- •He bought cars for $50 to $300 and resold them for hundreds more
- •Transformation begins with awareness of the access to abundance people already have
Moving from Scarcity to Abundance (Personal Moment #1)
Calum shares a private lesson from his 48 hours with Myron on shifting from a scarcity to an abundance mindset. It covers three habits: changing your words, creating offers, and giving freely.
- •Remove the words "I need" and speak in terms of what you want to happen
- •Create offers that solve problems instead of spending or trading time for money
- •The more you give, the more you receive; scarcity thinkers hoard out of fear
- •Myron tipped every service person generously, and the habit matters more than the amount
Brothers Born for Adversity and Being Pitiful Poor
Myron talks about what having brothers meant, then describes in vivid detail what being "pitiful poor" looked like. He recounts juggling bills, a disconnected electricity and water supply, a Greyhound trip with his pregnant wife, and a degrading welfare experience.
- •Brothers are given for times of adversity, with loyalty taught by his parents
- •A brother gave him $900 when he was broke, and he never forgot it
- •Pitiful poor meant juggling bills and a Greyhound trip with his eight-months-pregnant wife
- •A welfare worker said they'd get more money if he weren't in the house
- •At that point he had irritation rather than a vision
From Trash Truck to Sales Job: Identity Over Status
Calum asks about the trashman era. Myron describes driving a trash truck while listening to motivational tapes and trying to sell insurance, then being promoted to selling waste containers. The conversation turns to how his identity as a follower of Christ let him separate who he was from the job.
- •He was hired despite grinding gears on the driving test, and kept despite wrecking a truck
- •There is always somebody who needs your offer more than you need their money
- •He read sales books on breaks and was promoted to selling waste containers
- •His identity came from whose he was, not what he did
The Be-Do-Have Formula
Myron explains the success formula he finds in Genesis 1: identity determines activity, and activity determines what you have. He argues that working harder at what isn't working is wrong, and the input must change instead.
- •The first thing God says about himself is that he created, and he made humans in his image
- •Be, do, have: identity is the input for activity, and activity the input for property
- •Working harder at what's not working doesn't fix it
- •He gets his activity from his identity, not his identity from his activity
Eighteen Months Without a Sale: Work That Works on You
Calum asks how Myron stuck with insurance sales for 18 months with no result. Myron explains that work works on you before it works for you, and how he reframed what selling is. He describes his flip-chart practice and daily prospecting, and Calum ties it to the rule of 100.
- •When work isn't working for you, it is working on you
- •His dad's saying that anyone can be beaten by someone who learns it, plus a man earning $10,000 a month, kept him going
- •Selling is uncovering value so people happily exchange their money, whereas convincing is pushing your own reasons
- •His polished flip-chart presentation failed until he conveyed conviction instead of reciting words
- •He prospected 20 people a day and read sales books, because mindset comes before skillset
Easier to Make a Lot Quickly: From $6,200 Weeks to $400,000 Days
After finding what works, Myron describes his breakthrough to $6,200 in a week in 1999. It led him to the belief that making a lot of money in a short time is easier than making a little over a long time. He gives examples including a $400,000 offer in 2008 and a $3.8M, 27-minute pitch.
- •He found a way that worked and put it on rinse and repeat
- •In April 1999 he made $6,200 in a week after a year averaging $4,000 a month
- •It's easier to make a lot of money quickly than a little over a long time
- •A 2008 offer of books and newspapers to a CEO brought in a $400,000 check
- •Re-pitches have made as much as $3.8 million in 27 minutes
Leverage: The Race Analogy and the Three Houses
Myron uses a race analogy of running, bike, car, plane and jet to argue that leverage makes up for lack of ability. Calum then brings up the book's poor, middle class and rich houses, and Myron adds the idea that money should work for you.
- •You can always make up in leverage what you lack in ability
- •Income levels map to running, a bicycle, a car, a plane and a jet
- •If something is hard, find leverage rather than trying harder
- •Poor people spend money, middle-class people buy liabilities, and rich people make money work for them
- •Only spend the baby money, never the mama money
Feeling Rich and the Climb to Seven Figures
Myron recalls being checked by Robert Allen at a wealth retreat, which showed him that wealth has levels. He then describes his 2005 life of weekend events, conference calls and his first website, and how it felt easy.
- •Robert Allen told him he was about to break through to really big money after Myron boasted of $30,000 a month
- •The levels of this game are very different
- •He spoke at events, ran his own monthly event, and held a weekly conference call
- •His first website month brought $6,700, mostly from one conference call, and grew to $10,000 a month online
- •It felt easy because he had done hard things all his life, like fixing and painting cars in winter
Loss, Collapse and Rebuilding with King Solomon's Model
Myron describes the years from 2007 to 2014, beginning with the death of his oldest son, then the recession, an MLM collapse, an IRS audit, his mother's death and the sale of his home. He then explains how he rebuilt using King Solomon's business model, followed by Calum's personal moment on the model and Myron's later growth through YouTube.
- •His oldest son died in 2007 after a car accident
- •The Great Recession, an MLM collapse, an IRS audit and the loss of his mother and house followed
- •He borrowed money to move to Tampa and was owed a $4,000 monthly loan by a friend
- •King Solomon's model: appeal only to high-value clients and solve their biggest problems
- •He returned to a million dollars a year, then grew to $2.6M, $6.2M and $15M
Grief, Purpose in Pain and Trusting God
Calum asks how one makes sense of a sudden loss. Myron describes what the death of his son made him aware of, including the brevity of life, eternity and the illusion of control. He gives advice for someone grieving and explains why he never felt lost.
- •It made him aware of life's brevity, the reality of eternity and the illusion of control
- •He preached his son's funeral so no one else would define what it meant
- •We can only judge good or bad through the rear-view mirror
- •The purpose of pain is to comfort others with the comfort we received
- •He trusts God knows what's best, so he never felt lost
Broke Again: Support, the System and Everything Working For You
Calum asks what it felt like to be broke again after building wealth. Myron describes breaking down over the IRS debt, the friend who loaned him money, and why the system really is working against people. He argues the law of polarity means everything against you is also for you.
- •The hard part was believing it was worth rebuilding when the IRS might take it again
- •He owed the IRS about $1,065,000 and wept in front of his wife
- •A friend he had helped turn a business around loaned him $4,000 a month
- •Companies and government do work to take your money, such as the potato chip marketing equation
- •Be a prepared warrior, not a victim; faith and doubt are both beliefs
Selling to the Right People and Selling Without Needing a Yes
Myron describes his turnaround moments in Russell Brunson's mastermind, where he realized he had been selling to the wrong people. Calum then asks about the biggest mistake new salespeople make, which Myron says is needing people to say yes. He explains raising prices, not needing the sale and the law of large numbers.
- •Brunson's inner circle showed him he had been serving the wrong people
- •Charging high-paying people more, as with Hormozi's gym turnaround program, changed outcomes
- •Dan Lok made a million dollars in a day using his speaker training
- •Raise prices to filter people and make an offer without needing a yes
- •Show your offer to enough people and the law of averages ensures some will say yes
Legacy, Fatherhood and Where to Find Myron
Calum asks Myron what his granddaughter and legacy mean to him. Myron says his family's life is better because he changed their trajectory, and explains the Hebrew meaning of father as God in the house. He closes by sharing where to find him and the offered challenge.
- •He never knew his grandparents, so being a grandfather means everything
- •His children and granddaughter's lives are better because he changed the family's direction
- •The Hebrew word for father, Abba, means God in the house
- •A father is progenitor, provider, promoter and protector of the house
- •He points to YouTube, Instagram and a $97 or $297 VIP challenge
