Creating a Pedestal and Building Belief
Chris shares how he created a pedestal for himself in his DJ and stage hypnotist careers, as well as in building his tech company. He emphasized the importance of standing out and creating experiences that were unique and captivating. He also touched on the significance of having others believe in him and his abilities, which contributed to his success in various fields.
Identifying Opportunities and Embracing Individuality
Chris discusses how he recognized opportunities that were not yet well-known and capitalized on them. He highlighted his ability to identify emerging music genres like 'happy hardcore' and create experiences, such as organizing raves, that hadn't been done before. He also emphasized the importance of embracing his own individuality and not succumbing to external expectations or requests, which allowed him to follow his own vision and create remarkable results.
Risk-Taking and Skill Stacking
Chris talks about his willingness to take calculated risks and bet on himself, whether it was as a DJ, stage hypnotist, or tech entrepreneur. He also mentions 'talent stacking,' the practice of combining various skills and knowledge from different fields to create something unique. He highlights the value of measuring results rather than focusing solely on the time spent on tasks. Chris also encourages avoiding gatekeepers and finding alternative paths to success when faced with obstacles or resistance.
Chris was a world famous DJ in the 90s. He later became a successful stage hypnotist. Then he became an entrepreneur. He founded a technology company that generates enough passive revenue for him that he no longer needs to work if he doesn’t want to.
In today’s coaching session, I give Chris 24 hours to undertake a challenge that scares the hell out of him! He completed the challenge and I come back at the end of the podcast to update you on what happened.
Enjoy!! Love. Rich
