How To Build The American Dream: Work Hard And Be Kind

EP.742

In a recent Uber ride, I was blown away by the driver’s story of how he arrived in the US with $5 and a bag of clothes to now owning and operating a livery business with three Cadillac Escalades. 

When I asked him what he thinks set him apart from other people who come here in search of the American Dream, he shared three reasons that made a huge impact on me. In this episode, I share what his answer was and why it really stuck with me.
