Grant Cardone's Personal Life
Grant Cardone was born in 1958 in Lake Charles, LA, the fourth of 5 children (one of whom is a twin brother, Gary). His father died when Cardone was nine yrs old and his older brother died when he was twenty - two events which took an understandable toll on his family but which Cardone says have shaped the motivated individual he is today. Cardone currently lives in Los Angeles, CA along with his wife, Eleyna Lyons (an actress), and his daughter Sabrina; as of June 2011, they have also been expecting a second child.
Education and Training
After attending the area high school in Lake Charles, Grant Cardone went on to receive a B.S. in Accounting from McNeese State University, also located in Lake Charles, where he received a Distinguished Alumnus award in 2010. Cardone’s earliest sales training took place high school and college, during which time he worked with a number of sales-based firms that included a clothing store, a furniture store, as well as a fishing boat (the last of which he credits with triggering his passion for sales). After college, Cardone worked in automotive sales and as a traveling sales trainer for a business based out of Chicago.
Grant Cardone's Philosophy of Performance
The lynchpin of Grant Cardone’s business plan is based on his emphasis on sales; Cardone believes that the most successful businesses make selling the central focus in their daily operations, and therefore sales can also be the principal mode employed by families to move up in the world. Cardone’s general business philosophy might be summed up in one of his very own oft-repeated statements: “Success is your obligation, duty, and responsibility.” Cardone believes that sales success depends on one’s positive attitude and determination, and that these attitudes directly impact business performance, which he categorizes on three levels: poor performers, average to good performers, and over performers. According to Cardone, only over performers are guaranteed success on the job.
