GRANT CARDONE
About this episode

In Episode 271 of The Cardone ZoneGrant Cardone takes you deep into the playbook of what actions to take during tough economic times—and how to turn adversity into opportunity.

Grant takes us back to his first best-selling book, If You’re Not First, You’re Last, where he originally laid out the basic principles for thriving in economic downturns

These strategies—focusing on massive action, creativity, and dominating your space—aren’t just for recessions. 

They are timeless principles that apply to any situation where uncertainty and obstacles arise.

Inside this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why expansion, not contraction, is the right move during downturns.

  • How to identify and seize opportunities others overlook.
