This Was My Rock Bottom

This is a picture of me at rockbottom. It was Christmas Eve, I was living at my girlfriend's parents' house in their extra bedroom. And I'm the guy she just met on the internet that you just quit her job for, that just lost everything. My business partner took all the money I had made from selling my [music] gyms, and I just found out the $100,000 that I put in to launch this new business was getting held up

by the processor, and I had to pay all my bills, and since my last payment leaving only $1,000 left in my bank account. And I was like, "I think you should leave me. I think I'm a sinking ship right now, and I would respect you, like we're cool, if you want to walk away, and I would walk away from you right now." She pulled my chin towards hers, and [music] she said, "I would sleep with you

under a bridge if it came to that." If you find a girl who believes in your dreams more than you do, who makes you want to be a better man, who's willing to work alongside you to get there, and is grateful for whatever you have today, just marry her. Because at the end of the day, your spouse marries two people, [music] the person you are and the person you're going to become. Make sure they love both.
