Meet, Learn From and Interview Your Heroes with Andrew Warner: An EOFire Classic from 2021 Jan 24, 2025

Show notes

Andrew Warner is the author of Stop Asking Questions, a book for interviewers and anyone who wants to learn through conversations. It's based on over 2,000 interviews he did on Mixergy, his podcast.

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. The people who admire and want to meet you are there. As long as you can start a great conversation, you can build a great relationship with them, and learn from them.

2. A double-barreled question has two questions in one. If you ask two things at the same time, people will pick the easy one and only answer that and forget the hard one that you probably want to get answered.

3. If you ask things outright, it feels like it's coming out of nowhere and it feels like you're putting your interviewee against the wall and pushing them to say something they're not comfortable saying. You need to give them an exit so they feel comfortable deciding how to respond.

The Gift of Failure: Lessons in Turning Setbacks into Success with Ari Rastegar Jan 23, 2025

Show notes

Founder and CEO Ari Rastegar, "the Oracle of Austin," is a real estate developer known for major Sunbelt projects and his Wall Street Journal Best Seller, The Gift of Failure.

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. We've demonized the concept of failure and gave it a negative connotation. What we are trying to do is demystify the baggage and say that this is part of the process and that is how it works. The key factor is learning, and it holds true in life, business and relationships.

2. In life, making a mistake or mishap is how you move towards mastery.

3. No value in this world will happen without persistence. Persistence is the mother of all success.

99.9% of Conflict Arises Because People See The World Differently with Amy Shepley Jan 22, 2025

Show notes

Birkman President, Amy Shepley, is a third-generation Birkman family leader with twenty years of experience working with organizational behavior and perception. She's one of the most in-demand workshop facilitators for highly successful companies due to her deep understanding of the product and wide-ranging experience applying solutions within a broad set of industries.

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. The Perception Paradox is recognizing that each person is experiencing the world on a completely unique way. The paradox is the people who see the world different from you are the hardest to work with.

2. Trust and respect are big core issures and half of the population have opposite perception on how these are built. How you think is the right way to build it is not the right way for others and it becomes a breeding ground for conflict.

3. Be around the people who see things differently with you because they are the people you need especially when you build a company as an entrepreneur. You need to surround yourself with this people because they will cover your blindspots.

Changing the Way We Own Homes with Spencer Rascoff Jan 21, 2025

Show notes

Spencer Rascoff is a serial entrepreneur who co-founded Zillow, Hotwire, Pacaso, dot.LA, Queue, heyLibby and 75 and Sunny Ventures. He served as Zillow's CEO for a decade and teaches entrepreneurship at Harvard.

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. Once you found success in business, you will be able to redirect your interest and enthusiasm to other things. Success driven people are satisfied and they don't feel the need to continue to strive to build and run larger organizations.

2. You need passion when you are starting something because you will encounter enormous challenges and in order to overcome it, you need to run through walls and be super fired up about it.

3. Surround yourself with people who are better than you. Entrepreneurship is not a solo endeavour. In real life there are teams and team of teams. Entrepreneurship is a team sport so make sure you surround yourself with great teams.

How to Design, Build, Launch and Grow a Small Company with Michael E. Gerber: An EOFire Classic from 2021 Jan 19, 2025

Show notes

Michael E. Gerber is the author of the NY Times mega-bestseller, for two consecutive decades, "The E-Myth Revisited" and nine other worldwide best-selling E-Myth books concerning small business entrepreneurship, leadership, and management.

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. If you're to become someone you're not, or you're to possess something you don't feel, or you're unwilling to go one step further in your life without discovering who you are and why you're here, then The Dreaming Room Online is for you.

2. The entrepreneurial spirit, despite the desire to not experience pain, is incapable of not doing what's necessary to be done despite the pain that comes with it. It's driven from within - from the notion that we're born from the image of God.

3. The four personalities an entrepreneur is comprised of — the dreamer, the thinker, the storyteller, the leader.
