Ep.32 : The Power Of Debt With Colin Yurcisin Mar 02, 2020

Show notes

Credit doesn’t have to be scary when you use it for your own benefit. Our podcast today is focused on how to use the banks to work for you instead of the other way around. We are joined by Colin Yuricisin, the credit card Robin Hood, who found a way to break the matrix and make debt a machine that makes you money.

Breaking the stigma about credit cards, Colin breaks down his journey of leveraging banks to make him the successful entrepreneur he is today.

Colin started his journey of ascension towards success with some bad investments that cost him years of getting out of debt. He then decided to apply for a credit card and found a way to make banks work for him. Colin explains how you can use credit not only for your business but also for your lifestyle. There are no limits in real life, they only exist in your head. That’s why we are here to empower you to get where you want to get, business and lifestyle-wise, with other people’s money.

Remotrepreneur’s Insights:

Importance of Starting Your Line of Credit Card Early – Colin shares his experience when he first started out using credit cards and why it’s important to start early.
Leveraging Banks to Work For You – The tables have turned and now Colin tells us how you can make banks work for you to build income and assets.

Top Key Quotes:

“I don’t work through a bank, I’m using the bank”

“When you have a bank account, you have a debit card. A debit card is basically you just storing your cash inside of a bank. When you use a debit card, you’re taking out your own money. When you use a credit card, none of your money is in a bank account, it’s not tied to a bank account. You are literally using the bank’s bank account because they trust you.”

“When you first turn 18, you need to get a credit card. You need to start your credit history ASAP.”

“Debt is how the rich get rich”

“The more credit you have, the more trust you have”

“Living in luxury, traveling for free, leveraging bank’s money for little cost. It’s just education.”

Ep 30: Staying Productive When You Have Severe ADHD Without Medication with Freddy Lansky Feb 17, 2020

Show notes

Freddy Lansky, the owner of Points Panda and co-founder of iChess, is a guest on our podcast today to talk about his successful endeavors and how he managed to stay on track with discipline. Freddy, like all of us, struggled to stay disciplined. He found himself into the vortex of staying up late, eating unhealthy, and vices. Distraction was one of his biggest vices, and a lot of opportunities were wasted because of them.

After trying a few methods, Freddy found something that really works for him.

Freddy says there are so many great apps you use to help you block out all distractions in your life. You don’t have to be so disciplined that you start to go crazy about having a slice of pizza or cookie. Everything can be done in moderation. Also, keeping track of how many hours you sleep, which apps you spend the most time on, and what you eat can be helpful to you. That way, you know what to improve in your life. You need to set yourself up to success by blocking apps and staying away from social media as possible. Freddy gives tips on how to start your mornings better and how our phones impact on our health.

I know everybody can relate to the fact that apps are taking away most of our time, and staying away is difficult. If you want to know how to do that, keep on reading…

Remotrepreneur’s Insights

Eliminating Distractions: Companies spend billions of dollars just to get our attention. The power lies in us. Freddy talks about how to ‘discipline’ yourself to stay focused on what really matters.
The Restriction of Willpower: Freddy gives his thoughts on willpower and how they might not work for everyone.
Setting Yourself Up for Success: Freddy talks about how to achieve success as your only option
Getting Rid of Bad Habits: Any bad habit can be eliminated if you stay focused. Freddy talks about how important it is to indulge in your vices in moderation and not avoiding them all the time.

Top Key Quotes

"Will power is BS in general. It ranges from doesn’t work at all to kinda works."

"I think the strategy beyond having tracking and having a coach is really good isn’t getting rid of all the bad urges, to eat the cookie, to drink, to stay up late, is to find ways to make where it’s not even an option anymore."

"My dog had a 100% chance of going through his diet because that’s all he had. I make it for myself so that I can’t fail."

"Adding friction to bad habits and adding rewards to good habits."

"Enjoy your vices. Vices are meant to be enjoyed in moderation."

Towards the end, he gives his insights on how one can achieve location independence and make use of Geo Arbitrage to its full potential.

Listen now to know how to crush your goals and achieve success for 2020

Remotepreneur’s Insights:

Prioritizing goals is critical.
Build goals around habits.
Making goals social, being accountable, getting mentors or coaches and repeating for 21 days can help stick on to the process.
Remote entrepreneurs should limit the number of business or financial goals to two or three main goals for a year.
Be grateful and happy about the things that have been achieved and keep reviewing.
It is 100% possible to build business independence while constantly traveling.
Podcasting is still new and is a perfect way to expand one’s business.

Quotes:

3:32 - When we set goals, the idea is to set bigger goals, but fewer goals and make those a priority, and then start the process of making them a habit.

5:55 - Do whatever your goal is for 21 days. What happens if we do it for 21 days is that it reprograms our brain. So we're creating new neural pathways in our mind and it makes it easier to go back to that habit.

12:35 - Put priorities on to the goals that are important and have a lot of emotion behind them.

21:35 - Podcasting is still new

22:15- Online education, especially in the next 10-15 years, is going to get massive.

27:41- It’s just a few things in our lives that we need to survive and to feel good and to be happy. And so the more we feel good, the more that it creates the new…

33:15: Some people need to burn the bridge to be location independent and it lights a fire under them and gives them more passion and urgency to build that business while traveling...

35:20 A very smart thing to do for a lot of entrepreneurs that do want to be remote is to use the idea of Geo Arbitrage so you can live in one country and can make money with a high currency value and you can have your expenses very low

Ep 24: The Secrets Of Building 8-Figure BPO Business With Russ Perry From Design Pickle Nov 25, 2019

Show notes

If you haven’t heard of Design Pickle, you will wish you heard of them earlier.

This company, which offers flat rate graphic design services, has been able to grow from two employees to over 330 with $10 million dollars in recurring revenue...and Design Pickle has only been in business for less than 5 years.

Not bad for a business that is also completely automated and outsourced using the BPO model (business process outsourcing).

In this episode, we talk with the former design professional turned industry-disrupting star-up creator, podcaster, mentor, author, and business coach, Russ Perry about the ultimate level of remotrepreneurship building a business that works completely without you.

Russ shares how he stumbled on the idea of Design Pickle and how he leveraged his first win (completely outsourcing the graphic design process) into a powerful business model that runs completely on its own.

As Russ discussed, many entrepreneurs start at the ground level with their business. While there’s nothing wrong with that, there is a problem with staying at the ground level. An entrepreneur who stays on the ground level of their business (handling client work, marketing, and sales, etc.) does not take the time to grow their business. As a result, they feel stuck in a trap where they never get ahead.

Russ argues that the focus of working IN the business instead of ON the business is the reason why so many potential remotepreneurs lose hope. They get overwhelmed with all of the work and frustrated with their cash flow and prospects.

A better approach, Russ advocates, is building a system that runs without you. Instead of trying to work harder to keep finding clients (and keeping them happy), Russ says that remotepreneurs need to focus on the machine that finds clients and keeps them happy. That “machine” is your business solution that helps another business earn money.

By scaling and automating your service to businesses, you now have the systems that allow to keep making money...without doing any of the client work.

Listen if you (or someone you know) needs help with breaking out of the “entrepreneurs growth trap”

The critical moment that Russ realized his business idea (aka Design Pickle) was a profitable business
