PODCAST EP 007 - MINDSET & The Custom Home

Oct 7

MINDSET

Today, my good friend, Chu Shin, is here to discuss the mindset required for designing and building a custom home. He's been a close friend of mine for about seven years now. But he also has served as a mindset coach to me, and I believe his insight will be invaluable for you, a future custom home owner. When I started my architecture firm and left the corporate world, Chu was instrumental in helping me get into the right MINDSET. I'm also excited for you so you can avoid the emotional roller-coaster some people put themselves through with the proper thinking during this unique part of their life.

Here are key things to listen out for:

Why do you need to have the right environment and people around you
It would help if you built a strong culture around your project
The definition of purpose.

Notable Quotes

● Your vibe is your tribe.

● When you're trying to complete a project or goal in the corporate world or personal, you need to have the right people creating your environment.

● A house should be a sanctuary. It may not always be the case. But idealistically, it should be a place where you can feel safe, where you have food, water, shelter, and a place where you can be able to belong.

● When I look at a vision board is a guide that lets me know when to say yes or no.

● If you say yes to something, you say no to everything else.

● The people that have access to me first are my family and my inner circle.

● The vision board is just a reminder every morning to align with what you want to acquire, what you want to achieve, and what you want to obtain.
