It's my gift to you for listening to the show for watching the show. Our guest today is Richard blank. You can call him at Costa Rica's call center eight eight eight two seven one sixty seven fifty eight eight eight two seven one sixty seven fifty. Or you can email him his emails down in the show notes.
All right, Richard, what should, what are folks listening? Are folks watching? What are the three? They should take away from our time together today.
Richard Blank: First thing they should take away is that I'm very grateful for their time. And thank you for listening to the entire podcast. I know a lot of people like short segments, hopefully I kept your attention, but anybody that wants to reach out to me just to say hello, and just to touch base or have any sort of suggestions, be more than willing to take any call and just to say, uh, in to meet some people.
I'm hoping that people after watching us today will see that you can be self confident in what you do. And also you can assist others to become more self-reliant. Success is built on 1 million thank yous. And I believe that like the bricks and the wall behind me in my building, that I built that you're capable of growing.
If you're assisting others. And I've learned that. And I learned that the easy way, not the hard way, because that's how I was raised. And the third thing is if you take these long shots and you take these risks, it can also pay off. I have a beautiful life here. As I mentioned before I collect antiques, I bought a limousine in 1984, Mercedes 300 D for my clients.
And I restored that was able to build out a building for my call center. So all of my dreams have come true. And I think the most satisfying thing that I did was I was true to myself, going back to Philadelphia and being a Spanish major and using that to being where I am today. Obviously I had this vision as a young man that I, that I stuck behind.
Most people quit 80% in, or there's a lot of naysayers that will say don't do it. And these are the ones that love you the most and care about you the most. But you also have to stand. and you have to also have to look at yourself in the nearer every day and what sort of man or woman do you want to see?
And so I had to make sure that I could live with myself and I'm very happy that I made these choices and especially making a choice to be on this podcast today. So, uh, Dave, thank you again in your.
Dave Lorenzo: No, thanks to you deco. Thank you so much. It was a pleasure having you on. I loved having this conversation with you and we're gonna have to have you back again to understand how you built a building and collect antiques in Costa Rica.
