#551 - Peter Taunton - What It Really Takes To Be Successful
02/14/21 • 45 min
“Don’t let the world pass you by. Don’t be a spectator in opportunity.”
If someone tells you that becoming an entrepreneur is “not hard” or “easy as a pie”, we’re very certain that at the end of the speech, training, or webinar they are going to sell you a product. We’re not discouraging you from taking this route, but we’re just giving you a warning that entrepreneurship entails hard work, dedication, passion, and patience. Today’s guest is going to prove to you that you can earn millions and be successful, but it takes more than just enrolling in a program or buying a guide.
All about our guest:
Peter Taunton is a self-made pioneer in the wellness industry with over thirty years of experience. His expertise includes building a franchise system, international franchising, bootstrapping a start-up, expansion, and roll-out strategies both domestic and international. He learned the first critical lesson of entrepreneurship at eight years old selling popcorn in front of his father's grocery store.

#550 - What Is Work-Life Balance, Really?
“This isn’t a balance problem, it’s an alignment problem. It’s easy to balance what you love.”
We’re sure you’ve heard of this phrase or you’re probably saying it constantly --- work-life balance. But do you really know what this means? Do you know what it really entails?

#552 - There Is No Such Thing As Multitasking
“You can only really optimize for one thing at a time.”
Do you think you can multitask? Or is multitasking a “skill” that you wish you have?
In today’s episode, we are going to burst your bubbles a little bit only because we want you to realize your potentials in the most efficient way. For anyone who wants to multitask because they want a variety of experiences, know that if you become really good at one thing, the experiences will come along the way. If you want to become the best version of yourself, you can’t be a “jack of trades, master of none.”
