ow how to get Owen on audio but not video. But Owen is smarter than I am. So right now I'm just showing I go to auto. I can only go back to the people I've been viewing. Let me see what happens if I dismiss. All right. One extra person jumped on. Do I have to dismiss again? This interface needs some clarification. There's a whole bunch of people I allowed but they don't show up. Let's try. I've got duo photo solo. Might be a delay here too. It keeps going back to the last three.

Scott I just wanted to mention this is Jeff again. I didn't get to say this when I was on the live stream but I was actually referred to you by ChatGPT.

Really?

Yeah. About a year and a half or two ago I was asking I put in some filters. I asked about podcasters commentary and things like that and you came up in the list and it's been smooth sailing since and I just wanted to also wish you a wonderful day and look forward to continuing to take in your content and consider the wisdom.

Well thank you.

Now why are some people popping in and out? It's because their video turns on and you're in auto mode.

Okay. So I'm looking at a gentleman in the old wooden room.

And you are?

My name is Grant Turner. Scott nice to meet you.

And oh look sorry you got overshadowed by a little girl in the book. Deservedly so. That's a cute one.

Ah wait. What book do you have?

Dilbert. Which one?

Don't be shy. Seven Years of Highly Defective People.

Oh that's a good book.

You like it Mimi?

Yeah. I think it's a little funny sometimes.

She found this book in my stuff and she's obsessed with it lately. And she asked for a calendar and so she has your 2026 calendar.

All right. I feel like we really pulled away from... Is it Jeff?

Come begin.

The Grant.

Yes sir.

So Grant I feel like you have something else to say that looked good and we'll keep an eye on the book. Okay. Go ahead.

Yeah Scott I'm so grateful to have found you. I became an entrepreneur early in life and I got in very deep and then I learned about systems and oh my god my life changed in a hurry and the first decade of being an entrepreneur was brutal. And systems has allowed me to just kind of cruise through the second half of my career as an entrepreneur and I owe it to you. I'm so grateful.

Wow. What did you do differently exactly with systems versus goals?

Well I was reactive only. So I spent all day putting out fires. I never had the luxury of really planning ahead. Namely because I just grew so quickly. I started with a construction company and then it was a restaurant and another restaurant and it just was a runaway train. I was more productive than I could keep up with. So systems for everything. If it requires me to be involved I'm not doing it. So and it's not just delegating. It's and it's part of my system is never just okay this is my system I'm done. I refine it and refine it and refine it. And when I think I'm done I just keep refining it. And it feels like I guess the best way to put it my business 10 years ago before I found you felt like an old tractor or something you know like it was breaking down and smoking and shaking and rattling. And now it feels like a Tesla. It feels like a self-driving car. It's smooth. It purrs. It's wonderful. And maybe the most rewarding part of it is that I'm now giving your books to my employees who are showing an entrepreneurial spirit and coming up underneath me. I'm passing your lessons along. But I got to tell you Scott while I've got you I got to tell you the number one thing that you've done for me in my life. During COVID my businesses my restaurants were shut down. My girlfriend at the time things weren't good. COVID was not fun for us. So she split up. We split up and I was about 40 and alone in our late 30s alone my business is crumbling and I was going down baby like it was not good for me and thank you so much Scott the simultaneous sip it really was it saved me and I stayed the course and I stayed strong and I stayed optimistic for everybody around me. And now I'm just so blessed that my businesses have recovered. My girlfriend and I got back together and we have two kids now the two of the most beautiful kids in the entire world. And I really do owe a major debt of gratitude to you Scott. Thank you so much.

Wow. I'm really happy to hear that. It's wonderful.

So here's what I'm going to do from here on out. Because I've seen what you've accomplished and how high you've set the bar it's not enough for me anymore just to keep doing what I'm doing and building and starting businesses and that's all great. I'm going to do two things. I'm going to change the way houses are built. I've got a design that I think will revolutionize housing. Anything from tiny homes up to multi-million dollar customs. And that's one thing I'm going to do. And then the second thing I'm going to do I'm in a unique position because I live in Boulder City Nevada. We're the only 16,000 people population but we're the largest city landwise in Nevada. So it's just a really unique town. We're home of Hoover Dam. We've got massive solar fields and because I'm not tooting my own horn but I'm really influential. Whatever the next big energy thing is whether it's nuclear whether it's fusion I'm going to give free power to Boulder City residents for life in exchange for putting some sort of major energy center in our already bustling energy sector. And I'm going to do much bigger things Scott.

Wow. Well I think you will. I can see much bigger things in your future.

I don't want to take all your time Scott. I just wanted to say thank you and you're my guy.

I'm glad that's working. I'm now trying to figure out it looks like Owen is going to do a Coffee with Scott Adams spaces at the usual time today. So if you know how to get there there will be more under the spaces feature. And I'll just say a few more things and then I'm going to be pooped out. Yeah. So go to Owen Gregorian and after the show and
