Key Takeaways:

Bryce describes himself in one word “Grit". I've been in gangs. I was raised in a cult. I've had a wife commit suicide, a son killed by homicide, and I've attempted to take my own life. At the age of 22, I was recruited out of my car dealership to travel the world with Ford motor company, as one of the top salesman in the world for about 10 years in the automotive industry. I've had contracts with the Pentagon doing hostage negotiation. I've had contracts with solar companies, window companies, roofing companies, real estate companies. After my wife passed away, I lost my marbles for about 18 months. I snorted and drank $80 million in five companies in a matter of two years or less. I found out that I had a baby on the way in March of 2010. And that would be the start of the transformation in my life. I ended up sobering up and I ended up moving to Texas for a contract I had with ADT Tyco Corporation. I figured I've got a master of a process that works in any business. Real estate is just a widget. I put the two together and in my first month I contracted 23 houses. But I only closed nine of them. One thing that I find Mike that people in real estate make as a mistake all the time is that they feel like they need to get the system. You're going to change over the years, whether you choose to be bitter or you choose to be happy. I'm working on this mastermind for pastors. I've got feelers and emails and conversations started with some of the greatest pastors all over the world. By the end of the year, we plan to be in 15 markets and be the go-to when it comes to real estate coaching and mentoring in and around the wholesaling spaces.
