Jared’s 26th Birthday Wish

Picture this: I was just a wee lad of 15, innocently venturing into the world of personal development. Armed with books like ‘Think and Grow Rich,’ I was ready to conquer the universe. Why, you ask? Well, I had decided to join a network marketing company and thought public speaking would be my ticket to success. Little did I know what kind of wild ride I was in for!

I immersed myself in these self-improvement books for years, like a crazed bookworm on a mission. But the real turning point came in the summer of 2016, when I ventured all the way to Austin, Texas. My destination? A gathering hosted by this guy named Gary Keller. Now, I must confess, at that time, I didn’t have a clue who Gary Keller was, let alone Keller Williams or real estate. But hold onto your hats because this is where the magic happened!

Fast forward seven years, and that single event in Austin has utterly transformed my life. Last year, I returned to the summit, not as a clueless newbie, but as a devoted member of the community. And this year, my friends, I had the honor of opening the room for the one and only Mr. Gary Keller himself at the KW HQ in ATX. Oh, and did I mention I’m also a QL instructor? Yup, I’ve come a long way since my bookworm days.

Now, guess what? Next week, on the glorious day of July 16th, I’ll be celebrating my 26th birthday! And you know what I want for my special day? Drumroll, please… I want a whopping $26,000 to donate to KWKC! Why? Because this incredible family has done so much for a nerdy listener like me, who took Gary’s advice from the ‘defining decade’ to heart. Let’s fund the missions of the leaders of tomorrow, one funny birthday wish at a time!
