What were you doing before Symmetry and what was your approximate income?
I was a college basketball coach for 12 years. My income was never greater than $45,000.
What attracted you to Symmetry Financial Group?
My original attraction was simply a Lead System that would allow me to connect with people that were asking for our help. I walked through the door for the leads but I planted my flag for the leadership. Symmetry Financial Group, and in particular the Delaney Agency, is led by genuine men & women that had something special inside of them that needed to get out. Through a combination of relentless self-development, massive activity, & associating properly, they built a new belief in themselves. They became free. And I’ve learned that broken people break other people. But free people – free people. And our leadership team is on a mission to share the wealth of opportunity, but more importantly, to help free more people. Those were the type of people I wanted to become more with.
How has your life changed since joining Symmetry?
As a basketball coach I spent a disproportionate amount of time on my craft, while neglecting every aspect of my personal growth. Only now do I realize that my failings in that career were centered around my ability to be more. But strength comes from struggle – always has. I’ve learned in my time with this team that the two most important words in leadership are not “hear me”. Rather, they are “watch me”. I’m spending more time on myself today in preparation for what my team will need tomorrow.
What opportunities have you been able to do or provide because you started working with Symmetry Financial Group, that you likely would not have done or unable to in another career?
Own a business that can be passed on to our children or outlive me. If the last level of leadership is legacy – the opportunity with Symmetry Financial Group is second to none.
What advice do you have for a new agent?
There is incredible value in association and disassociation. Be prepared to leave some things behind…we all did. There are people in your life that don’t want you to be “too successful”. We call them dream-stealers. You call them friends & family. Symmetry Financial Group is a really hot fire on a cold night. Get close to it & then stay around long enough for us to get what’s buried inside of you – out.
That’s our story.
