E86 - Getting to Give & The Entrepreneurial Identity with Bestselling Author Mike Michalowicz

Mike is the creator of Profit First, which is used by hundreds of thousands of companies across the globe to drive profit. He is the creator of Clockwork, a powerful method to make any business run on automatic. And his latest, arguably most impactful discovery, is Fix This Next. In Fix This Next, Mike details the strategy businesses can use to determine what to do, in what order, to ensure healthy, fast, permanent growth (and avoid debilitating distractions).

Today, Mike leads two new multi-million-dollar ventures, as he tests his latest business research for his books.

In this episode, Tyler and Mike’s discussion focused on the “getting to give” mindset, Michael's mission of eradicating entrepreneurial poverty, and various other entrepreneurial nuggets of wisdom. They discussed what makes sustainable businesses successful, what’s fundamentally wrong with many non-profits, the difference between being broke and poor, the identity of entrepreneurial poverty, and defining shareholders and business stewards.

Other topics included the “positivity or death” mindset, refraining from a comparative state, the first key to building confidence, Mike’s practice of writing notes to his future self to mitigate personal lows and highs, the two elements of Mike’s writing process, creating a group of mentors you want to be around and more!
