Collective Ambition with Leon Hendrix

Imagine having the life that every strives to have - you’re doing well financially, you just moved into a beautiful house in a peaceful town France with your wife and son - and then one day a tree hits you, you’re paralyzed from the neck down and the doctors tell you you’re never going to walk again?

On TOP of that, multiple surgeries follow, your wife leaves you and takes away your son and you’re in horrific agony for years…

Today’s guest has experienced exactly that and didn’t just survive, but is now walking again and traveling the world despite the doctors telling him he’ll never walk again.

How did he do it? What kept him going? What’s his perspective on life now?

Do you set a bunch of ambitious goals at the beginning of the year but find yourself losing motivation and slacking off after a few weeks? Same here. That’s why I’ve refined my goal-setting process to something that’s so simple yet so impactful that has allowed me to achieve what seemed like audaciously huge goals at the time - scaling my business from 0-7 figures in 12 months or exiting a business that was described as unsellable. Sounds cool? Listen in!

Feeling stuck, things aren’t improving? Whether it’s your skills, the level of your current success, your relationship, your finances or your health... Often times, we hit a plateau and just can’t seem to improve doing the same things we’ve done before. Then it’s usually time to approach things from a different paradigm. But in order to do that, we have to be willing to get worse first, in order to improve. Without the willingness to do so, we’ll keep stagnating. Leave some feedback!

In this episode I talk about quitting the constant consumption of podcasts, blogs, YouTube videos and other social feeds, including books! Why? Because you already know the most crucial things. It’s enough. Focus that time and mental bandwidth on the things that matter most right now.

In this episode I talk about how to never struggle with willpower, discipline or self-control ever again by setting up systems that make it easy to stick to a good habits and remove the bad ones.

Mike Michalowicz, the author of Profit First, The Pumpkin Plan, The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur & Fix This next, had founded and sold two multimillion-dollar companies.

Knowing that now, he could do anything, he became an angel investor (the type who buys a Range Rover, BMW & Dodge Viper on the same day!).

Only to realize that after 2 years he had lost all of his money and maybe… he didn’t know THAT much about business after all.

After another 2 years of depression, self-hatred and doubt he rebuilt himself as well as his business skills by taking complex & boring but crucial topics for the survival & thriving of businesses and made them not only simple and practical, but also entertaining.

I personally recommend his books without hesitation to friends and will encourage anyone to pick up a copy.

Here we discuss:

• The importance of knowing your numbers, profiting first and making business simple
  
• How he lost all his money after selling two multimillion-dollar businesses, how he rebuilt himself and what role journaling played in that
  
• Getting too confident with your first successes, only to be humbled later on
  
• How to prepare to sell your business for its maximum value
  
• How to figure out what to focus on next by knowing what the most important thing for your business is right now

What happens when two guys who have built a 7-figure business in their early twenties sit together and brainstorm how to overcome their current challenges?

Today’s guest is once again, Louis Kanteh, who is one of my favorite people to talk to when it comes to business, personal development and silly shenanigans. 

He’s one of the members in our weekly mastermind calls (which you can apply to join as well), built a 7-figure business and moved his business and himself to Cyprus when he was 19 years old. 

In this episode, I sat down with him while I visited him in Cyprus and we brainstormed on different topics such as:

- Realizing who you actually are, not who you wish you were (“do you really want it, or do you want to want it?”)-

- Our dream of building a team that is like a family and community

- What’s your personality and how does it fit into a team

- Finding a co-founder who’s strengths are your weaknesses

- How your self-image affects all your actions and the importance of self-reflection to become aware of it

- The lies of the personal development industry that you can “be whoever you want”

- The importance of enjoying what you do

- Starting a business that is not a proven model you can copy from a course, but going into uncharted territory

- Our prediction that mental health & loneliness will be the biggest issues coming up in society, as kids are growing up getting hooked on the fake world of social media

Do you enjoy more casual conversations like these? Let me know!

Do you want to build an audience of raving fans for your business, a following for your personal brand to network with more influential people or maybe there’s a side project you want to start? Today’s guest is Max Hertan who has done exactly that. While running his 7-figure agency Megaphone Marketing with a team of a dozen people seems time-consuming enough, he decided to start a YouTube channel about two years ago, doing monthly challenges of learning a new skill and documenting the entire journey. In only two years, it grew to about 100k subscribers. Here we discussed different topics such as: - How he managed his time to do both and the importance of delegation - How to get mentors that skyrocket your results in any field - Sticking to something even when there are no results at first - Growing to 100k subscribers on YouTube through consistently great content ▶️▶️▶️ Check out Max on Instagram (@maxhertan) or on YouTube (https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCqBDp0AeZwe_IIU2qbCqI4w) ________________________________________________________ ▶▶ Send me a question via voice message and appear on the podcast: https://anchor.fm/collectiveambition/message ▶▶ Connect with us on social: Instagram: @leonjhendrix or https://www.instagram.com/leonjhendrix/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2lU-g879YdXVCuPK6MGk6w?sub_confirmation=1 Podcast: https://anchor.fm/collectiveambition
