Key Takeaways:

• Find Your "Because": Go beyond your “why” and dig into your deeper motivation—your “because”—to truly understand what drives you both personally and professionally.

• Be Cautious with Scaling: Whether in business or life, don’t rush to scale or spread yourself too thin; take time to learn the lessons and build a solid foundation before growing.

• Prioritize Health and Longevity: Daymond’s health journey, including fasting and biohacking, shows that investing in personal well-being isn’t just a trend—it’s a transformative, lifelong pursuit that can inspire those around you.
