“You have to take a leap of faith that you can in fact succeed at one thing… and practice that great advice which is sometimes hard to follow which is called focus.”

This episode’s guest is a rockstar!

Majeed started his entrepreneurial journey when he was just 16. By the time he was 21, he’d bought and sold FIVE companies and used entrepreneurship to fund his passion for travel.

Majeed is now in his early 30s and he’s married with two young children, but his mantra for life hasn’t changed. “I live to travel” and that’s what he does! He now travels the world helping experts get their stories onto stages so they can serve more people with their message through public speaking.

It’s one of the reasons Majeed has such incredible insight. Through his work he gets to help all kinds of people including Olympic athletes. This breadth of knowledge and experience shines bright throughout conversation.

One topic we talk about a LOT is passion. It’s so important if you want a life that’s fulfilling.

So come listen in and discover powerful ways to infuse more passion into your life - even when you feel you’ve lost it. Majeed shares some simple strategies that you can use to transform your day-to-day reality almost instantly.

“Passion is really important to me, but it’s an incomplete strategy to say ‘follow your passion’ and everything else is going to work out.”

Watch out for the powerful strategy Majeed shares around the role of pain too.

Majeed explains how “taking action is a great way to take responsibility”. One place we can act is with our emotions. I loved the conversation we had about emotions being signals and how an understanding of what those signals are trying to communicate can transform how you experience the way you feel.

There’s so much gold in this episode it’s hard to sum it all up into a few words.

Spend just 45-minutes listening to this episode and you’ll take away some fresh ideas about all of life’s most important topics. Passion, legacy, pain, success, money, harmony, presence, self awareness, goals, family… we cover it all!

And you’ll be all the richer for investing your time with this incredible man.

“Taking action is a great way to take responsibility.”
