85. Founder of The 6-Figure Salesman Training Group: Hit Between the Eyes and Killing the Addiction - Jerry Gerken

Jerry Gerken

Have you ever gotten a call at 2:30 in the morning from someone who loves you and whom you love very much that hits you right between the eyes?  If so, consider yourself blessed.  If you haven’t experienced this, you’ll get a glimpse of what it did to one man who chose to change his life that very night.  

Jerry Gerken is a United States Marine Veteran, Founder and CEO of The 6-Figure Salesman Training Group, an Automotive Sales Representative, proud father and happily married to his wife of many years.  

Today, Pedro and Jerry talk about bridging the gap between generations and the difference of being brought up at a time when you were told to shut up and only speak when spoken to as a child.  Jerry references the belt, and other forms of corporal punishment that were the norm in his generation. He shares how his children challenged his beliefs growing up that forced him into focus on personal growth and development.

Pedro shares his gratitude in being able to be surrounded by people like Jerry who have lived life, experienced a myriad of hardships, challenges and the lessons he learned in his life.  Jerry talks about his challenges with addiction and how they almost derailed his life.  Pedro and Jerry discuss their faith, God, and the power of being genuine and how much easier life becomes the more you are yourself.

FAVORITE QUOTE:

 “People say that you’ve changed.  What’s going on with you? You’ve changed. And I don’t feel like I’ve changed. I’m trying to get the most out of this life that I have. I have a short amount of time I have to be here. I’m trying to suck the life out of every day. Jerry Gerken
