Entrepreneur Motivation Podcast: Season 2 Episode 3 – The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich

Tim Ferriss’ book, The Four-Hour Workweek is a must read. The sub-heading is: “Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich.” The book was originally published in 2007, and while a lot of the recommended sites and productivity tips are not always “current” with the times, there are so many golden nuggets throughout.

The “new rich” is being able to escape the 9-5, live anywhere, and do the things you want to do. Click here to purchase it on Amazon today.

For those looking to “travel hack” like Tim mentions and get a credit card with lots of perks, check out my two card system:

Chase Sapphire – First year free, then $95 annual fee (this is more than paid back in flights and points)

  • 2X Points on Travel and Dining
  • No foreign transaction fees
  • 24/7 Customer Service
  • Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver
  • And more

Chase Freedom – No annual fee and 5% back on categories each quarter of the year

  • 5% cash back on up to $1500 in combined purchases each quarter in various categories. Q118 offers cash back on gas station purchases, internet/cable phone services, and Chase/Android/Apple/Samsung Pay.

You can combine points from both Chase cards to travel. I used all my points on my trip to Asia in May 2017 and am already back up to $531 that I can use towards travel. I can get cash back as well, but the points are worth more when you use them to travel, which I love doing.

Today we’re going to run over a book I really enjoyed called Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.

Kiyosaki helps break down some financial knowledge into easy to understand stories and concepts. This book focuses on shifting your mindset to think like the rich do. Work smarter, not necessarily harder.

You can purchase the book on Amazon here.

Entrepreneur Motivation Podcast: Bonus Episode – New Year Resolutions

Happy New Year! I don’t really believe in “New Year Resolutions” and explain why in this episode. It’s important to set and achieve goals constantly throughout each year, but setting huge goals for an entire year without breaking them into smaller ones is a recipe for failure.

Entrepreneur Motivation Podcast: Episode 9 – The Importance Of Mentors and Network

Your mom was right. Who you hang out with tends to define you. If you’re hanging out with people who are okay with the status quo and don’t have drive to do more, they’ll pull you down to their level. If you want to level up, you need to elevate your peers.

Find mentors who have been there and done that, have a proven track record, and are willing to show you the ropes or even just grab a cup of coffee. This episode dives into the importance of mentors and network.

Entrepreneur Motivation Podcast: Episode 8 – Paid and Free Software to Consider

Starting a business or side-hustle comes with a lot of not-so-fun tasks. You don’t just get to invent a product, but you’ve got to build the foundation. A website, social media content, editing audio footage, and more requires software and online tools. I’ll walk you through my go-to list and make it super simple for you. Paid is usually better, but there’s a lot of great stuff out there that’s completely free as well.

Tools I recommend checking out:

Websites/Sales Funnels

  • WordPress – build websites (free and paid plans)
  • ClickFunnels – build sales funnels (14 day trial, then $97/month)

Email Automation

  • MailChimp – create automated email campaigns (free until you have more than 2,000 subscribers or send more than 12,000 emails a month)

Graphic Design

  • Unsplash – free stock photos to use (give credit to photographers if you like to help them out)
  • Canva – graphic design for dummies. Mostly free, but you can pay for a few premium templates or graphics.

Screen Recording Software

Video Editing Software

  • Windows Movie Maker – free editing for Windows (no longer supported)
  • iMovie – free video editing for Macs
  • GoPro Studio – free GoPro footage editing software

Royalty-Free Music
