Started off the week with a special meeting that’s been a long time coming, mixed with a little watch show for The Heights Luxury Watch Company with my cousin.
First of all, my dear friend Mike Mynatt. We started working together years ago (back in 2017), and it’s been a half dozen years since we last partnered up. Well, fast forward to last week, and we’re on track to be working together again. Mike is a wonderful person, a great supporter of my journey, and a great car dealer.
I’m excited for the opportunity to work with Lexus of Las Vegas, and most importantly, an excuse to hang out more often!
Next up was the watch show in Vegas. I learn so much every time I go to a show with Nick, and it only takes an average of two days, and we’re back home. Heights Luxury Watch Company is on its way to letting Nick retire and bringing us together as cousins and business partners. We’re delivering beautiful watches to great people and making their dreams come true. Can’t wait to see where it goes!
The rest of the week was preparing for a long travel streak that begins today. 17 days on the road is going to be a lot of fun with wonderful people, and I’m really excited about it.
The week starts with our clients in Dallas-Fort Worth, which is one of my favorite trips every other month. These guys really make me love my job. They have great energy, they challenge us, and we’re successful together. I am excited to end the year seeing their smiling faces.
The next part of my trip starts on Thursday as I head back to pick up my dad for a trip to Florida for Christmas. I know it’s a lot for him to travel, and it was like pulling teeth to convince him to go, but he said YES. I can’t explain how much that means to me, especially after losing my mom a few weeks ago.
I’ve never thought about being a personal escort for my dad, but I am absolutely stoked to help, and as my girlfriend said so eloquently, I’m the right man for the job. Those who know him know that I’m about to get bossed around, and I’m here for it lol.
I’m feeling very hopeful this week. I’m feeling thankful and ready to spend time with my loved ones and be as present as ever.
I’m excited to see each one of my family members as love and (hopefully) nothing else.
Will I succeed? I hope so. I really believe I can do it.
A lot of progress has been made in 2025, setting up 2026 to be a record year. I’m going to spend a significant amount of time reflecting on what has gone well this year to do more of that next year.
Hopeful for a great week of work and a safe week of travels.
Forward.
