Jesse Itzler

Jesse Itzler is another interesting person but I am excited to post about him after I wrote about David Goggins. The reason is that Itzler was a highly successful entrepreneur that felt he needed to get more out of his life so he hired David Goggins to live with him to push him to be more successful.

Itzler is the owner of the Atlanta Hawks and founded a company named Marquis Jets, where they basically rented private jet experience to people who could afford them. He did this from starting with nothing. He did not have is Dad pay his way or a friend that helped him out he literally waited outside Warren Buffets' building and waited to speak with someone about his idea. So after telling you this why am I writing about Jesse Itzler and why would it matter for a college athlete.

I will tell you right now the reason is he is a great example that you can be good at something and be highly successful as he is, I mean he owns an NBA team and is married to Sara Blakely who owns Spanks. They combine for well over a billion dollars. But the reason I write about him is no matter how good you are you have to find a way to get better. He could have been comfortable but he had Goggins come live with him and make him do all the crazy stuff Goggins did every day with him because he knew it would make him better.

As mentioned above his wife Sara Blakely is highly successful and extremely accomplished at her young age of 48. If women are reading my blog I would highly recommend learning her story and what she was able to accomplish as a young woman. This can give any person of any gender hope to become something they envision for themselves. Blakely worked from her heart and worked hard and knew she could accomplish anything and she sure has made a huge impact on the world.
