I Heard A Little Hack That Set Me Free But Keeps Many Entrepreneurs Poor…
Learn how my story from High School can help entrepreneurs like you increase your free time and achieve your goals in business, FAST.
When I was in High School, I was put in the “friend zone” many times. I was that stereotypical guy who girls came to when they were having trouble with their boyfriends; I always seemed to have a solution.
I was trying to be a “good friend” and a problem-solver. It made me feel needed, and I thought my suggestions were helping.
When people came to me, I always gave them a solution, but they never tried what I suggested. Instead, they always came back to me, again, with the same problem.
I struggled to figure out why people kept coming back to me, and kept making the same mistakes, without trying any of my suggestions.
It made me feel confused and irritated because I thought I knew the solution to their problem; everyone listened to me, and agreed with me, but kept getting hurt.
Then a girl I liked broke up with her boyfriend. She had been coming to me with her problems for months, so I thought I had enough rapport to ask her out. She shot me down in front of my closest friends, and it made me want to stop trying to help anyone with their problems.
However, more than a decade later, I had this incredible insight…
One of my mentors said, “Sometimes people don’t want you to solve their problems, sometimes they just want someone to listen to them.” This perspective showed me a new way, and set me free.
From that lesson, I saw that the most effective service I could do for others was to listen instead of jumping right to diagnosing and problem-solving issues.
From this lesson, I decided to create a leadership system to teach entrepreneurs when to problem-solve and when to use active listening instead.
But, this presented a new challenge…
Entrepreneurs are busy, so I needed to deliver a system that gets results FAST.
I decided to include the most critical leadership information and cut out anything that doesn’t help you get an instant result.
That allowed me to create a leadership system that shows people how to become world-class leaders in less than 5 minutes a day.
This system meant we could help entrepreneurs have more time freedom and financial freedom by showing them how to lead and empower people.
Our system was able to help entrepreneurs learn how to create leadership movements in their business, work less, and have more time with the people they love.
Ultimately, I became a leader who doesn’t try to force my suggestions on other people. I mastered knowing when to help people by solving problems and when to help by listening.
This distinction made me a better entrepreneur and skilled leader who adapts to situations. It also made me a better husband because I realized that everything isn’t a problem to be solved. Sometimes the greatest gift we can give someone is to show interest in them and listen.
What I want you to take from this story is that leaders are also listeners. As leaders, we don’t always have the answer, but we can help others find answers and solutions by listening to them and being interested in them.
