The Cory Lee Show

Rags to riches to rags to WEALTH!

In this episode of Principles with Cory and Logan our guest Chris Bennett shares his journey into entrepreneurship.
There's a saying that goes something like: we are all tattooed in the crib with the beliefs of our tribe. Well there may be some truth in that statement and we can either learn from our experiences or choose to allow our experiences to lead us. It's the difference between living in response to life, saying life is happening to us and living life on purpose, saying that life is happening in with and through us. We know that every life has been shaped by the events of their lives in some way and we may not be responsible for how you were raised but we are responsible now that we have the awareness.
In our episode this week Chris shares his journey from rags to riches to rags to WEALTH.

The 4 Mindset Shifts of an Influencer

When you think of the word influencer, what do you think of? If we go to my friend Google you will find 274,000,000 results and the way they define an influencer is: a person who inspires and guides the actions of others.
That's pretty good, but the way I define it is: becoming the type of person others willfully follow because of who you are and what you represent.
This world needs your gifts. This world needs your talents. This world needs you to be an influencer that positively impacts the world around you and the world you've been called to.
In this video you will learn about the 4 mindset shifts of an influencer.
1. The comparison shift.
2. The Imagination shift.
3. The how long will it take shift.
4. The growth shift.

Principles Podcast#9- Why Should I Forgive? With Derek Stone

In this episode of Principles with Cory and Logan we interview entrepreneur and author Derek Stone.
For years Derek Stone had dreams of becoming a musician. This road didn’t lead him to success, however, it led him to Nashville, TN. Struggling to live as a starving artist with a family to feed, it was then he thought “there’s got to be a better way.” He went through an early life crisis, changing careers with the help of mentors and watching YouTube. He took his God-given talent of Creativity and transferred it from being something you hear to something that you can see. As it turned out, the construction industry was his road to success, the “better way” he had longed for. In three short years, he grew a small one-man show into a company with $1.2 million in gross revenue.
He credits his success to one decision as a senior in high school. He started looking back at his life to figure out what made him so different from his three siblings. The difference. . . he chose to forgive his dad and to take a different path than his parents. He blamed his dad for every bad thing he went through as a child: from being sexually abused and going hungry, to taking cold showers because the power got cut off. He was a bitter teenager and wanted a better life, so when the opportunity presented itself, he took it and chose forgiveness.
36 years since the beginning of his story and he is currently living his best life. He enjoys hunting, fishing, knife making, and hanging out with his family. He loves empowering people to re-tool and change their lives. He loves God, loves his family, and loves people.
In this episode you will learn:
_How forgiveness can put you on the path to success
• Re-tooling your life to bring about change
• How to stop blaming and start living
• 5 steps to change your life that you can start today
• Start making smart choices and live your best life
