Don’t Forget What Got You Here: The Humility That Builds Empires

By David Price, CEO of The Price Group (TPG)

Here’s a truth that every entrepreneur, leader, and top-producing insurance agent needs to remember:

The fastest way to lose everything you’ve built…
is by forgetting what built it in the first place.

It’s easy to start feeling bulletproof when the deposits hit.
When the leaderboard lights up.
When people start asking you how to win.

But success has a funny way of testing your memory.

Did you forget the early mornings?
The late nights?
The cold calls, no-shows, and “I’ll think about it” rejections?

Did you forget what it felt like to hustle hungry—before the commission checks came in?

At The Price Group, we’ve helped insurance agents go from $0 to six—and even seven—figures.

But the ones who go the distance?
They never forget how they started.

They still:

✅ Show up early
✅ Lead by example
✅ Respect the grind
✅ Train like they’re brand new
✅ Stay humble—no matter how high they climb

Ego Will Break What Discipline Built

It’s not the money that ruins people.

It’s when the money makes them forget the mission.

And in this business—whether you’re in life insurance, building a virtual agency, or mentoring a team…

Humility isn’t weakness. It’s your anchor.

The moment you stop doing the things that got you here?
You start sliding backward.

The insurance game is simple.
But it rewards the ones who stay true to what built them:

Don’t get distracted. Don’t get cocky.
Remember your roots.

Because staying grounded is how you keep growing.
