Trackback Comments rss TrackbackLast week I was featured on The Rise To The Top, the hottest TV show for young entrepreneurs. What an honor. I was actually a huge fan before I came on the show and my friend David Garland (who I met in St. Louis for the first time on the Go-Giver Tour) does a tremendous job with it. Check it out and leave a comment below letting me know if I kicked some ass! Click here for the whole episode with Chris Brogan and Neil Patel, or click the picture below for my individual segment.

Entrepreneurship is a hard game to play by yourself. Actually, there is no game by yourself. Crack out your Monopoly board game, pick your favorite shiny piece and roll the dice. See how much fun you will have playing by yourself.
Business is a game just like Monopoly. You have to learn how to play from somewhere. You usually learn from sitting on the sidelines a few rounds or having someone actually teach you play by play how the game works.
There are certain rules to the game. If you just tried to jump in and play, you are bound to make mistakes. These mistakes can be costly. Maybe passing up on property because you think you can’t afford it.
When you have been in business for a while, there comes to a point in business where many of these mistakes are not fun anymore. Especially when they could have been avoided with some simple advice.

We hear all too much about what you have to do to become successful. I have discovered one proven way to become successful…Fail often.
How do I know this? Well, we won’t get into that right now. I have come to terms with distinct character traits that hold back young entrepreneurs and when repeated, will definitely keep you from succeeding in your business and life in general. I’d like to say thanks to Russell Yermal for his contributions on this article.
Lack of Punctuality
Being on time, every time, is a necessity in business. If you cannot keep your word, you cannot be trusted. Successful people will instantly make a judgment on your character through your punctuality. Once you have a respect for your own time, you create posture and people will start to respect yours. Purchase a day planner to organize you schedule and make a to-do list every night before bed.

ar the co-author of my favorite book The Go-Giver and the author of Endless Referrals, Bob Burg, speak. He was recently speaking at an event in Chicago hosted by the Dynamic Professional Women’s Network (Christie Ruffino has done a knock-out job with this group). He put on a tremendous talk on about networking and getting tons of referrals.
He came at me and Brian Tomkins with a sneak attack pulling us on stage in front of about 150 people to talk about social media and what kind of impact it could have for businesses. I fought it with little resistance

It’s 10:18pm and I am 30,000 feet up in the air with Dave Matthews Band in my headphones. My 25th birthday is 26 hours away (it is today-I wrote this on Friday) and I am heading down to hang out with my friend who is putting on an event called “Creating Your Millionaire Identity”.
I would have never thought in a million years I would be sitting where I am right now, let alone be still kickin’. I really was an careless punk through my teens and early 20’s, really having no direction in life. But, I am still here and I am happier than ever.
The most amazing breakthrough I have had in my first 25 years, has been the awareness realized of my position in life. There have been several significant changes I have made carving out my new path. I am writing this post more for myself to anchor what is important to me.

Do you remember that one kid in grade school who folded paper and magically it turned into a swan, a boat, or in my case a Chinese star? I never would have thought those juvenile talents could have turned into something big until I met 20 something entrepreneur Jason Lucash from a fascinating new start-up, OrigAudio (pronounced o•rig•audio). So, what is OrigAudio you ask? The website describes it as an “eco-friendly, foldable, self powered speaker. Use them for travel, the beach, your office, camping, dorm life and everywhere else!” Jason simply put it to me like this:
“Have you ever eaten Chinese food? Well, imagine a speaker built in to one of those white take out containers.”
My curiosity was peaked and I was most interested in learning how the heck he came up with this concept. Jason said he just happened to be in collaboration with a speaker manufacturer and was looking for a cheap, eco-friendly speaker to take on the go and with-in a few weeks, they shipped him a prototype. The rest is history.

The Young Entrepreneur Society is a place for you to learn the secrets of today’s entrepreneurs and millionaires. Louis Lautman is the founder of Y.E.S. and the creator of the YES movie. He recently reached out to me and asked if I had heard of the his new movie. I told him I have watched the trailer several times (see below) and that it seemed pretty interesting. He sent me over a copy in return for my brutally honest feedback. It has gotten a lot of positive feedback, but here is my dead honest opinion…
Watch the trailer to see if I nailed the voice
