I was leaving LA, then Tai Lopez texted... (Here's what I did)

Ever had to make a split-second decision that could change everything?

Well, that's exactly what happened to me yesterday...

Jennipher and I were literally driving back to Arizona when I got a text:

"Tai Lopez wants to do a podcast with you... can you come by at 5-6pm? Or is that too late?"

Talk about a moment of truth.

Do I:

A) Pass up a chance to sit down with one of the most famous marketers of all time

B) Say "Sorry, we're already on the road!" and drive off into the sunset

C) Pivot my plans and make it happenYou can probably guess what I chose...

That's me, sitting in Tai's infamous garage, about to record what could be a game-changing podcast. Here's the thing...

Opportunities like this don't come every day.

They might show up once every few months or even years.

And when they do, you have to be ready to POUNCE.

Would it have been easier to keep driving home? Of course.

But I knew I'd regret missing the chance to grow my brand and share knowledge with Tai's audience way more than I'd regret the hassle of changing plans.

So what's the lesson here?

Be ready to pivot when opportunity knocks
Think long-term, even when short-term comfort is tempting
Recognize that growth often happens OUTSIDE of your comfort zone

Now I'm curious - what opportunities have YOU been putting off?

What "Tai Lopez moment" are you letting slip by because it's not convenient?

Remember... The most successful people in any industry are those willing to say "yes" when others say "maybe later."

Funny enough, Tai actually shared a story about just that yesterday during our chat...

I won't spoil it for you here though..

But just know, one person's procrastination and indecision ended up costing him over $4 BILLION...

It was about a lawyer who had an opportunity to invest into Amazon with Jeff Bezos and get 25% of the company before it ended up taking off...

And well, I'm sure you can guess what he didn't do...

So this week, I challenge you: Identify ONE opportunity you've been hesitating on and TAKE ACTION. Book that call. Send that email. Make that bold move.

Your future self will thank you.

Here's to seizing the moment...
