A couple of years ago I dropped out of university to pursue my dream and live life now, as opposed to waiting 50 years for retirement. Fast forward to today and I’m nearing 7 figure sales on Amazon, whilst teaching others to do the same, all whilst travelling the globe. The idea behind iGeneration Entrepreneur is that anyone can make a business work in the 21st century due to the opportunities available, such as the internet. I like to think of this podcast as the "behind the scenes" of life as an entrepreneur. Covering "interesting/useful" topics that I encounter/think about on a weekly basis. There's a lot of glamourising/making entrepreneurship look easy out there. How many business models are summarised by a 15 minute youtube video? How pumped up do they make you feel? All well and good until you get your hands dirty and ride that up and down roller coaster called entrepreneurship! This podcast will "keep it real". No fluffy feel good crap. No sales. It also won't just be me. Every so often I'll be joined by guests from varying fields of entrepreneurship, from online gaming streamers making 5/6 figure monthly profits, to the CEOs of fast growing businesses.
This episode is a little bit different than usual. I did a live stream session with my program (The Massive Impact Mastermind) about time management and shared some tips on efficiently managing their time.
"Pain is generally the biggest driver that humans have." In this episode, Chris shared his struggles for 6 months due to adrenal fatigue and the way this illness changed his life.

Here, I talk about my vision, what I want to do? What kinds of things I want to achieve? You should have a vision element. My vision element is that my ultimate vision for my life is to be striving for more tomorrow whilst being happy and fulfilled. What's yours?
Take some time time to reflect on your goals for the past year, and set new ones for 2021. Also, think about what your reasons are that you're doing what you're doing. An amazing hack to increase productivity, fulfilment, and happiness with yourself is to share your goals with someone, and make each other accountable.

I Never Forget Anything: Because I don't have to remember anything.
Perceived Image: A misleading snapshot that doesn't reveal the true story.
The idea of making small changes you'll actually stick with vs trying to change everything at once. Loss, both on a macro and micro scale (permanent vs temporary loss). Do we always want more, and is that necessarily a bad thing?
My training program re-launch has been crazy, but what's the point? What do I do, or look forward to, that excites me? My frustration with sales...
In this episode I dive into:
Why I walked out of the gym.
What I'm doing about controlling my emotions.
How did I find motivation? How do I stay motivated?
People overestimate what they think they can achieve in a day, but underestimate what they can achieve in a year.
Why am I doing what I'm doing, what is my purpose?
An obsessiveness with productivity/efficiency.
