    This interview was originally published on December 22, 2014, as HTE 038: Most Things In Life Fail. It’s Ok. | James Altucher From teaching you specifically how to make a living in six months, a great living within two years, and how to be rich within three years, James Altucher joined me for my most unconventional interview to-date. James Altucher has built more successful businesses than most of us will ever start — not to mention the giant list of failed companies. He has lost more money than most of us will ever earn. And he brings us it all, in genuine Altucher fashion, during this interview. --- Today’s guest is one of my all-time favourite writers and I rarely go more than a few months without rereading his book Choose Yourself. He is an American hedge fund manager, entrepreneur, bestselling author, blogger and podcaster. He has founded or cofounded over 20 companies and 17 have failed. He sold one for $15 million and spent all of the money — all of it. Then he built and sold another within its first y

    01/06/2016 Duração: 33min

    This interview was originally published on March 11, 2015, as HTE 070: How to Find and Follow Your Inner Voice | Jessica Rea The popularity of this interview has been truly impressive. Not that Jessica isn’t a smart entrepreneur, she definitely is. But the fact that she is not a ‘big name’ in the space and how she struggles simply with the title of entrepreneur, makes this conversation more interesting Jessica is in the same position you may be in, and I believe that is why this conversation has resonated so well with listeners like you. This is a deep dive into the inner voices (and struggles) of becoming an entrepreneur. --- Today’s guest is not only a smart entrepreneur, she is also part designer, part business strategist, and part coach. A few years ago she would’ve told you that she wasn’t an entrepreneur, but this has changed. She now runs her own successful business and helps other ‘ladypreneurs’ gain the clarity and confidence they need to connect with their ideal clients, build their brand and busine

  • 7) Is This Startup Worth My Life? | Dan Martell

    This interview was originally published on October 23, 2014, as HTE 019: Is This Startup Worth My Life? | Dan Martell During this conversation, I ask Dan Martell what the criteria is for knowing whether or not your idea needs VC funding — his response leaves me speechless, but clarifies the murky waters. As a Canadian entrepreneur, Dan has taken two businesses from idea to exit and he shares with us what he has learned. — Today’s guest has been an entrepreneur most of his life – having started at 18 – and failing twice – before finally figuring it out.

I used this list as one of my metrics for success and I am happy to say that today’s guest is number two on that list. To me, the idea that one person could start a blog, not sell anything for 18 months, and turn that blog into an 8-figure media company is endlessly fascinating. He is a former lawyer, serial entrepreneur, writer, and creator. In January of 2006, my guest started a one-man blog called Copyblogger. Copyblogger is now an 8-figure per year media company called Copyblogger Media, of which he is the founder and CEO. He has ranked among

  • 4) We All Start As Employees | Brian Tracy

    23/05/2016 Duração: 42min

    This interview was originally published on July 27, 2015, as HTE 202: We All Start As Employees | Brian Tracy.

But this takes the conversation into a new, unexpected, and deeper place. --- My guest today popularized secular evangelism in 1983 when he worked with the Macintosh Division of Apple. He is currently the chief evangelist of Canva, an online and easy to use graphic design platform. He is also the author of thirteen books including. Art of the Start 2.0 and  Enchantment.
