The American dream is the belief that anyone, regardless of where they were born or what class they were born into, can attain their own version of success in a society in which upward mobility is possible for everyone. Carlos Reyes, an entrepreneur and Real Estate Industry leader, believed this dream was possible for him and strived to achieve it through sacrifice, risk-taking, and hard work, rather than by chance.

Carlos Reyes was born in Mexico to a single mother. Carlos came from very humble beginnings, he was broke, with no education, but he had a dream despite his setbacks. Carlos dreamed of giving his family a better life. He dreamed of one day making a positive impact in the world. Inspired by how hard his single mother worked to provide for them, Carlos swore to work even harder, overcome his odds, and be successful. Even though his journey was not an easy one, Carlos never lost sight of his dream to one day be somebody that made a difference in the world. 

Being an entrepreneur, let alone a successful one, is not easy. Carlos managed to climb to the top of the Real Estate Industry by keeping a positive mindset and exercising massive action. Carlos overcame his difficult situations by remaining determined, dedicated and motivated. He believes the key to being a successful entrepreneur and a leader is vision, commitment, good decision making, hard work, sacrifices, perseverance, a good work ethic and dedication to one’s work. These are the qualities that helped Carlos become a great leader. 

Having a dream or a goal is not enough, one needs to make the necessary steps to achieve that goal. One has to remain dedicated, focused and persevere through the challenges that come their way. The journey to success is not an easy one. Carlos believes that one needs to be ready to make the necessary sacrifices to achieve that dream. Most people lack the discipline required to remain dedicated to their goals.  They lack the strength to make sacrifices and to persevere through and overcome the challenges they meet on the way. 

Carlos’s definition of success is alignment and balance of mind, body, spirit and financial freedom. He has daily routines that help him build discipline, and healthy habits that benefit his mind, body and spirit. Carlos believes it is vital for a person to maintain personal discipline and surround themselves with people they look up to. He agrees with the statement, “Your network is equal to your wealth.” He also  believes that people are only as successful as those they surround themselves with. 

Carlos’s goal is to reach and impact people’s lives. To encourage and inspire both as a leader and an entrepreneur. Carlos is an inspiration to many young people and is proof that with hard work, discipline, a positive mindset, determination and commitment to one’s goals, anyone can achieve what they truly want in life. Carlos started from the bottom and is now one of the most prominent leaders in the Real Estate Industry. His advice to young people is to start early, work hard towards their goals and never give up.  And for those who are not too young, it’s never too late to start.
