Productivity is an important part of how he was able to become so successful. To maintain a productive day, Patrick starts his day at 5 a.m. and catches up on the latest financial news. He is also always focused on winning the task ahead, which helps to keep him focused. He is always striving to become a better version of himself and that mission propels him.

As a child, Patrick’s family was dedicated to giving back to their community. His father gave generously to their church, even though the family wasn’t always in the best financial health themselves. Growing up with this spirit of generosity continuously showcased to him inspired Patrick to want to provide for his community in the same way. This is what encouraged him to start the Dwyer Family Foundation.
