Personal development

If you've every wanted to crush it in business and life then this episode is for you.

Our next guest on The School of Greatness was a local legend at 12 years old by making thousands on weekends from selling baseball cards at a local mall and later took his fathers company from $3 million to a $45 million business with his online marketing savvy.

He's written two New York Times bestselling books and his most recent book is all about how to tell your unique story in a social world.  Although he may never beat me in ping pong or a basketball game (ha ha), he's one tough competitor to chase in business, so please welcome my friend, Gary Vaynerchuk.

About the Book

New York Times bestselling author, Personal Transformation guru, and life coach for the Steve Harvey Show and Today, Lisa Nichols shares her journey from scarcity to abundance, outlining steps everyone can take to create abundance in career, relationships, self, and finances—while creating a legacy for others to follow. With a foreword by Steve Harvey.

Twenty years ago, Lisa Nichols was a single mother dependent on public assistance and jumping from one dead-end job to the next. Determined to break out of the defeatist mindset, negative behavior, and bad habits that were holding her back from success, she resolved to change her life. Today, she leads the life of her dreams.

In Abundance Now, this icon in the field of personal transformation shares her secrets for creating a life that is rich in every way possible. Focusing on the four areas of life that must be refined to bring true abundance, or the 4 E’s—Enrichment, Enchantment, Engagement, Endowment—Nichols identifies the framework upon which a fulfilled existence is built. Abundance Now offers provocative lessons, actionable plans and real-life case studies, and makes clear what we must do every day to attract abundance, how to act as if we are already leading abundant lives, and how to open the door to a life of richness in our work, our relationships, our finances, and in our view of ourselves.

ABUNDANCE NOW by Lisa Nichols, Excerpt 1

Increasing Your Profits:Balancing Your Work and Personal Life pt3

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A BOOK, HOW WOULD YOU WANT YOUR STORY TO GO?

Whatever it is that you want to do in this new year- declare it.

Tell everyone.

One of the scariest things you can do is to admit your goals. What if you fail?

But saying your intentions out loud allows the universe and those around you to make them a reality.

Holding yourself accountable to what you really want won’t be easy, but it will force you to dig deep.

No one knows this better than my guest on today’s special episode of The School of Greatness. I’m sharing a speech from this year’s Summit of Greatness with an inspirational athlete and author: Amy Purdy.

Amy Purdy is a para-snowboarder, motivational speaker, clothing designer and New York Times bestselling author. She is a 2014 Paralympic bronze medalist, 2018 Paralympics silver medalist, and co-founder of Adaptive Action Sports. In 2013, She was named one of the top 15 most marketable para-athletes in the world by the International Olympic Committee.

Amy has competed on CBS’s The Amazing Race and ABC’s Dancing With The Stars, eventually becoming the show’s runner-up.

Amy used a tragedy that took her feet to push her to the next level. She teaches us to use obstacles not as a reason stop but as a springboard to new ideas.

So get ready to learn how to write your own story on Episode 743.

Today one of my dreams is coming true. When I started this podcast, I made a dream list of guests, and the most influential leadership expert in the world, John Maxwell, was right at the top of it. I’ve been lucky enough to have John as a mentor and every time I talk to him he says at least five things that totally take my breath away. This podcast was no exception. We talk about how to anticipate and adjust to change, how to be a great leader, and - strangely enough - what crabs in a basket can teach us about realizing our dreams.
