W-e-l-l, I don't know if I want to believe your comment. There are many people with PHD's and Masters but they' re making less than a hundred thousand a year. These are the people who did the five years of college and possibly more time at other institutions of learning. When they come out, they owe $500,000 in school loans and what happens? They land a 'good job' to prove to the world that higher education pays off.........That 'good job' pays ...........$100,000 a year !!!!

There were several things that Mr. Smith said that stuck with me: 4) Act on your intentions, 7) Find your drive, and 10) Develop grit. I used these rules when, after retiring, I returned to college and 8-years later, received a master degree in information systems/cybersecurity because I wanted to learn something different and create an "encore career." Great video!!

This man is amazing. He: 1. Proved that a Black man can be successful without being a performer or a sports superstar. Make more money being smarter than by being strong or fast. 2. Became an "overnight" sensation after years of hard work. 3. There is more to him than just "business as usual." 4. Gives back to the "community". "Dream Big," "Act on your intentions," and "Develop grit" all, go hand-in-hand. Evan, thank you again, for consistently introducing me to positive, success people.

James Unn, That's been proven. What he proved is a black man shouldm't wait for others to live his dreams. Especially, validation from white people. More importantly, he showed how to get paid for your labor and intellectual capital and not be robbed which blacks have been getting for over four hundrend years.

I know I am watching this at the right time but I must admit that I wish I watched it one year ago. Thank you for posting this Evan and #BelieveTeam. Mr. Robert Smith and I have some commonalities (similar first degrees, similar drive and similar philosophy) I am truly happy that I am watching this at the age of 25. I love all of his rules. He was inspired by James Bond, I am very much inspired by Bruce Wayne. A few things he has said that resonate with me... 1. "You can actually make more money being smart than you can by being strong or fast. The importance of developing Intellectual Property can not be underestimated." 2. Running your own race demands trusting yourself even when others don't. 3. You have to put consistent action behind your vision for it to manifest. 4. Dreaming BIG is a very important part of running your own race. 5. Have and demonstrate GRIT. 6. Education is not enough. BE PERSISTENT. I know theoretically that I will have to put in the 10,000 hours. This reinforced the need for those 10,000 hours on the road to perfecting my craft. PS: I do not believe I will ever perfect it but I will enjoy the journey.

This has encouraged me to seek and keep seeking and help me produce quality services with Excellence .If you don't figure things out how will you be a path finder. *Develope Grit , we all at some point in life struggle with dependency at all levels but without Grit we won't be able to bring out and share our hidden potentials with the world around us.

I like points 2 & 4 which are: Trust Yourself & Act on Your Intentions. Have faith in yourself to make your dreams live and come true and then Get Up and DO IT. Stop dreaming and Start Living and things will come together. These are things I am doing now, so they really resonate with me. Great convo. Enjoyed the story of his journey.

Developing grit, being committed and enjoying figuring things out. He explained that his life didn’t happen without serious effort, discipline and lots of time put in to make the life he wanted happen. When he didn’t know what to do or know what something was, he took the time to study it and figure it out and I truly respect that. The deeper message there gave me a lot to think about and is also inspiring. Thanks for putting this video together.

I did not know he was a billionaire. Good content. I like "Develop your mind" as knowledge and education are more valuable than being stronger and faster. Information is power and those who have it from education become a valuable asset. I noticed a theme throughout each of the tips is being inquisitive and love seeking things.

This is the true bell ringer, even if you don't strive to be a billionaire or noted venture capitalist. One should always want to be the person others come to for answers. Yes, you do have to work additional hours both in and outside of work. The thought process never leaves you, as you are constantly counting, figuring, deciphering trying to understand problems. When the person above you needs that answer, needs to understand, you will get the call, so always be ready.

The beauty of Mr. Smith's presentation was that unlike MOST successful black folks, he didn't redirect to our personal failings (e.g. Obama; Bill Cosby, Morgan Freeman, et al) as being the most prevalent reason for our struggles. He kept it factual, skipped over the social impediments, and imbued us to embrace the belief that our God-ordained greatness will allow us to overcome those constructed barriers - provided we skip no steps and maintain our resiliency through to the end. One of the moist poignant COME UP presentations I've ever heard in my life.
