The 3 Biggest Life Lessons I Learned From My Dad, T. Harv Eker

Hi everyone! Jesse Eker here… As you can imagine, my dad, T. Harv Eker, has taught me a LOT — and a lot of my success comes from the habits he’s helped me create and the “life lessons” he’s taught me over the years.
A lot of these lessons have been shared with you through his teachings…
But I thought I would do something special today in light of Father’s Day (that happened several days ago), and share a video that we posted last year on the 3 specific lessons that I learned from my dad that have had the biggest impact on my life… And how they can serve you in your life too.
Enjoy!

Jesse. I have learned lessons and Wisdom from your dad that I will take with me for the rest of my life . I am on Day 7 of the 7 Day No Complaining Summit., and I wanted to see if you made other videos.
As I listen to this presentation,, your Energy comes right through the screen and affects me! I am energized,, and if I didn’t know your dad at , I would become acquainted with him by your presentation.. I can him in you ! Peace, Linda
I’m trying to think of anyone who is more focused than your dad!
He is my mentor. Not only is he a successful business man, to say the least, but he is a Humanitarian.. He gives and gives and gives to us without expecting anything in return..
My husband is from India,, and when his relatives are in town, and I have a captive audience, I play your dad’s videos, because they all have businesses. And they buy them! Peace, Linda
I miss my Daddy very much. He passed away when he was fifty years old., leaving my mom a widow at age forty-eight.
From my dad , I learned about unconditional Love. When I was single, I was giving the same worn out saying aloud. I said ,” A marriage is a fifty fifty proposition ” Now my dad didn’t raise his voice often, but he was the funniest ans most entertaining person I’ve ever met. Suddenly, he said, “No!”, in a loud voice . Well, loud for him. I fell silent, waiting for him to speak. When he did so, it wasn’t loud any longer , but it was serious.
” It’s not fifty-fifty, it’s one hundred -one hundred , because there will be a time when one them will need 100%, and the other one must be able to give it”
And that’s how he and my mom lived and loved.
I learned from him love, respect for my fellow man, honestly, and some of the best jokes , actually real life events, that I still repeat to this day. My mother passed away in March , and she is with him…at last.
I send to you and yoyr dad and all of your loved ones, Peace, Love and Blessings. Linda
Hi Jesse
I learnt love and helping hand to needy people.
Thanks
my father taught me honesty, integrity and to always do the right thing x he passed away and i miss his valuable advice x
If you are not early, you are late- Being on time or better yet early shows you are organized and is directly related to how things will go moving forward and to your overall success. Being stressed out over being late in the morning will affect your whole day and sends a message that you don’t respect the other persons time and harms your reputation.
Invest in your future sooner rather than later- Because capital gains compound quickly, just waiting a few years to invest in your future costs you a lot of money.
你好,我是一名中国人,也想要财务自由,由于国家与国家之间的游戏规则不同,穷爸爸富爸爸有好多地方都受到了太多的限制,每一次都很希望回复,但是因为自己对英文不是太精通,不能及时回复,我希望交上你这个朋友。
My Dad taught me endurance…
Thanks Jesse!
My father transmitte to me the integrity. Nowdays there are a lot of self development programes in circle, there are programs that say that you are a human being constructed in a negative way and that are others that evaluate your positive energy to reach your dreams. I prefere to realise my dream sharing love and not being streassfull. All we have one life and is our honor to move towars helping each other with the heart. Thank you to Jesse to have tauch this so discused argument.
I watched it but to tell the truth this video led to cry since I have lost my dad unexpectedly to death 3 yrs ago and on june 15 it was his birthday so I don’t celebrate Father’s at all.
Thanks for sharing it is awesome the learning you have had from your dad.
My dad taught me to treat every one with respect and as equal. That no one is beneath you and you are not beneath any one.
I really liked this about him and his boldness.
My dad was a hostile abusive control freak whose favorite hobby was to make my mother cry. Watching him taught me to hate men and not trust them. It took many years to unlearn that, Not everyone has been blessed with what you can call “dad”. If you have, value that.
Awesome content Jesse! It is always a pleasure to read from you, I follow you for a year and it gives power on following my dream : work from anyplace in the world. I have the very luck to have a supportive daddy too. I learnt to do every single task with soul and passion, and treat people as good as I want to be treat with compassion and honesty. I am a soul explorer and found myself living in 5 five different country. Traveling has different meaning than a stamp on my Passport. It is like having plenty of lifes in only one. It is endless growth. Feel free to connect with me. I would love hear from you. Audray
Hi. Unfortunately I’m watching the video without understanding because simply because I do not understand English, when I am in the subtitle settings I am even more immature in software. Thanks for sharing
I wish you a long life your father
my father taught me not to have debts, to spend according to my possibilities, that money is for life, he taught me to be humble and be generous

Thanks & Regards
