Grant Cardone’s 10X Arnold Schwarzenegger Interview

Closing out the 9th annual 10X Growthcon, billionaire investor Grant Cardone sat down with bodybuilder, actor, investor, and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger for an exclusive interview. Together, the two discussed everything from real estate…

 

To movie ownership, 

 

And getting back up when you’ve fallen down.

 

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Interview: “Don’t Listen To The Naysayers”

 

It’s almost hard to write about this interview since Arnold Schwarzenegger seemingly covered…

 

Every major move and life lesson he’s learned in his 60-year career…

 

What he did say was that he wouldn’t be nearly as accomplished if he didn’t have a clear vision and goal for his future. 

 

Born two years after World War II ended in Austria, his whole childhood, he had people telling him that he could never accomplish his dreams: 

 

“THE RULES ARE ALWAYS THE SAME, DON’T LISTEN TO THE NAYSAYERS. EVERYONE HAS TOLD ME FROM THE TIME I SAID I WANTED TO BE MR. UNIVERSE, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A STUPID DREAM. IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THEM AND I DID IT.”

 

Clearly, it did not take long for him to prove everyone wrong. But that’s not to say that it was easy.

 

For Arnold, like everyone else, you need to have a plan before you decide to do anything. After all, without clear goals, how are you going to plan your next steps?

 

And yet, plans can change. Schwarzenegger already had a seasoned career as a bodybuilder and actor…

 

When he thought of becoming the Governor of California. 

 

His reasoning? Wanting to give back to the country that gave him everything.

 

“I DIDN’T HAVE THAT VISION, IT CAME ABOUT VERY QUICKLY. AMERICA GAVE ME EVERYTHING I HAD NOW IT’S TIME TO GIVE SOMETHING BACK. I DON’T MISS THE MONEY AT ALL. I WAS HAPPY TO DO IT.”

Pick Big Dreams

 

Aside from sharing his business tips and life story…

 

There was clear common ground between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Grant Cardone in this interview…

 

And that was their ability to be ambitious and reach new heights.

 

For Schwarzenegger, that was the most important thing for people to take with them: the ability to not underestimate yourself. He shared that if you want success you cannot stay small, “Don’t pick small dreams. Pick big dreams…

 

We cannot shy away from big goals. People shy away from big goals because they are scared of failing, guess what? Everyone fails! 

 

I CAN FALL 20 TIMES IN A ROW BUT EVERY TIME, I WILL GET UP. LOSERS STAY DOWN AND WINNERS GET UP AND THEY GET UP…

 

That is the bottom line.”

Be Great,
