I saw your videos and man you changed my life. Thank you so much for everything! It's been a tough year, got a lot of love for you I love you so much man I Love you back taking a lot of Courage So I can quit my job last year I was able to live my dream and I listened to your podcast all the time and you gave me courage to get out there today. I'm proud of you bro. Let this be very clear.

Love is unfucking defeated I did trade attention and build businesses Legacy is greater than currency like documented I'm glad you're here for defense Canada It's great to see you! Oh my gosh, great to have you too! Hi Hi how are you I'm so grateful for each and every one of you. This is the guy that brought us here and we are so grateful for you man. thank you thank you last year V Con: completely changed my life bro You have no no idea I Do you know that's what I was saying to everybody like it's like-minded people. It's the same.

It's tribalism. If humans are wired to be in tribes, the problem is. see the last decade has been built on more negativity, tri-based which is why this tribe matters so much to me. Of course you got a pen I don't Here's everything but the Sharpie thank you.

My favorite tweet I've ever made. Some kids got a photo the airport he goes about to hop on my plane missing class to go to Beacon means I'm doing five hours of homework on the plane. See you soon I Quote Retweet it: Homework life. This means he will do five more hours of homework on this plane than I did in my entire High School career combined.

No way. my life been looking gorgeous. got bad women for me today man he need to force it I'm standing with the torch cooked in my hand I'm heliconing the other Palm hold my fortune I Know how exciting it is? A community come to life. What would be your advice? especially for anybody out there who's trying to get their side hustle with their business.

and maybe they're not the best at connecting with people. I Believe the only way to get better at something is to practice and fail. and I think one of the biggest issues in our society is that we've demonized losing for kids. The reason I'm so overly passionate on eighth place trophies is because I know it's hurting people when you teach a child that losing's bad.

So much so that we're going to give everyone who lost a trophy too because we can't have you feeling bad. Well then they get scared of it I Was mad when people took their second and third place trophies. I was like leave that we lost. What do I think people should do? I Think they should say hello to people but they're scared because if that person shuns them, their feelings are hurt as if that person's value is any greater than theirs.

Because if you do it, two out of nine are going to be super lovely and that's your connection that you're looking for. But people are literally scared of rejection because of insecurity. and insecurity starts early. Life's about losing with an occasional win.

Thank you Gary Thank you everybody so thank you everyone! Have a great weekend. Really have a great weekend. Good how you feeling about your your sessions. Excited to moderate I was like you know this is a safe space I can curse I'm so excited good I Get asked a lot because I Consult with a lot of entrepreneurs and women I Think the thing that they're people are always trying to get out of me is like what's the magic sauce and there isn't correct.

If you can point to a couple things that have brought you to here today to this level of successful, can you name a couple things? Yes, but I'm going to actually take a stab at the impossible question I Absolutely believe that the women that listen to this are going to really resonate with what? I'm about to say the magic formula for most currently today to stop judging themselves so much. Really Really, women have an incredible DNA structure when they have children, to having to balance the two most important things in the world themselves and their Ambitions and this subconscious conscious responsibility to be a mother and they're beating themselves up 24 7. you can't do two things at once. Give yourself a break.

Therapy about to make me cry I Would tell you you that one of the singular Reasons I'm here is my inability to judge myself for my shortcomings. When people hear what I say they're like what I have to hold my no no I hold myself to a great I want to be the greatest entrepreneur of all time I would argue that's a very high standard that is different than when I make inevitable missteps day in and week and month and year out that I don't myself and say I suck that, stop beating yourself up all right here first. but that really gave me right here some feels because it's hard I Cannot wait to see all of you. Can't wait for all of you to get your pins like the Olympics Come and trade them with me, offer yours for mine.

There's gonna be a lot of pin trading at Becon this year I'm excited about that! I'm really happy to be here. Hi hi yo yo yo! so I'm just extremely grateful for this community.

It's been a tough year I Know it has. that's why I wanted to get you before I got out of here I appreciate it so much I got a lot of love for you I love you so much man I love you back Send love okay tomorrow for the goat meeting?

The reality is, we're bringing thousands of thousands and thousands of very positive people to a town and I want them to interact with nice people. We believe in civility, kindness, empathy and nice and Indie delivers on all of those.

Is there a shift in how you approached speakers and panel topics this time around? Yeah. I think last year I was incredibly focused on the education of new innovation. so if I was to do it this year like there would have been 80 of the panels on AI whereas this year I want to expand it into kind of how I Envision it which is the coolest business conference in the world I You know I just know how powerful you know actual friendship is around like-minded interests or things of that nature and just watching how all of you are interacting with each other is like a massive massive thing and a lot of people talk about Community Obviously every community's got different Ebbs and flows, but I'm incredibly proud and really genuinely humbled by knowing the makeup of so many people with this in this community and so I'm just grateful I'm just really excited.

It may look good, it might be attractive, they might have a Rolex you don't know what's in their Souls today I Would like want to be happy, just maybe more and more depressed I was just going farther and farther down with every accomplishment other people have.
