the WORST advice I've been following my whole life


All my life, I've been told to think positively.

But last week I realized that's TERRIBLE advice.

I had a conversation with Evan Marks, a top performance coach who works with elite athletes and entrepreneurs.

(I'm getting old.) 😢 For the last 3 years, while I do cardio, I've been watching TV shows. I decided to change that up this year. Started last week. Instead of TV shows, I've been watching YouTube videos. All stuff related to my business. How to create better content, how to generate more leads, trends in the social media world I...

99% of business owners I speak to are terrified to niche down. They think that if they get too specific, they'll miss out on sales. Miss out on opportunities.
