Millionaire Mindcast

In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, we have an impressive guest, Aaron Amuchastegui who shares his big wins and big losses in life, and all the craziness, how he got behind the bars but stand & back up, how he started on flipping houses, the story of massive success and how he blew it away, how he back up for the third time around, and actionable tips on how they live a rich and reasonable life, and keeping it on the zenith! Aaron Amuchastegui is a best-selling author of 5 Hour School Week, an entrepreneur, a real estate investor who had flipped over 1,500 houses all around the country, one of the principals at Homerock LLC, a real estate consulting company focused on distressed assets, owner of Aaron Amuchastegui Construction, a contractor focused on high-speed high turnover remodeling projects improving value to distressed properties, and the President of AMA Construct Inc, who has managed the acquisition and sales of more than $100 Million dollars in single-family homes acquired at the trustee sale and through public-private partnerships with Nonprofits and banking partners.  Aaron’s dad was a custom home builder and his grandma was a developer, so he grew up doing construction real estate that’s why he always wanted to do it. He was 20-years-old when he started partying all the time, did crazy things, got into trouble, and got behind the bars. Aaron wasted his most productive time in prison.  He realized that he needs to gain it back and it drives him to get out there and make his life better. This guy makes up the lost time, tries new things, and shifts his life on the right path. Later, Aaron started flipping houses and succeeds. But because of unplanned actions & uncontrolled spending on the wrong things, they blew up the opportunities. They hit the bottom but during his down moments, Aaron swallows his pride from being a millionaire to doing manual jobs like what a carpenter typically do, and became an Uber driver. He decided to do something and not just be lazy to go back in the path.  They hold their faith and their spiritual part stronger and it really helps them get up and back up. Now, Aaron and his wife Kaleena have over 1,000 rental properties and looking forward to adding more. The couple makes sure they would not miss the second chance; they spend their money on the right thing, donating a portion of their income to the church,  and building more memories with his family. One thing that they’re sure of, even if they went broke again; they wouldn’t regret they wasted their money on stupid things and they set their family as a priority.

In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, a remarkable guest, David Neagle who shares his entrepreneurial journey gives amazing tips on how to be a successful entrepreneur, how to get rid fears and back up from failures, how to get rid toxic people in your life, how to make your idea realize, and when is it the right time to diversify and start investing out of your business!  David Neagle is a mindset mentor, famous speaker, podcaster and host of The Successful Mind Podcast, bestselling author of The Millions Within, a book focusing on intention, focus, and awareness to build your dream business and life. David is the founder of the multimillion-dollar global coaching company Life Is Now, Inc, helping thousands of entrepreneurs, experts and self-employed professionals gain confidence and find the right mindset to increase their revenue, turning their endeavors into seven- and eight-figure ventures. Being in the coaching and mentorship industry for more than 20 years, David has worked alongside other well-known mentors like Bob Proctor and Tony Robbins, and his clients include many well-known people, including New York Times #1 best-selling author Jen Sincero. Because of the results his clients have achieved, along with his dedication, David’s coaching has expanded to more than 30 countries, and he has been featured on Forbes, CBS, NBC, Wall Street Journal, Inc, HLN, Entrepreneur, and Fox. Young David became street smart because it was needed to keep away the fears from the surroundings. His life was not on a good track and grew up witnessing all the struggles within his family. Because David doesn’t want his children to experience the hardships he’d been through, he doubles down on being a responsible person and a father. David didn’t know that he was an entrepreneur at heart but was really preferred to make his own thing and be in control with his own income than working for somebody else. He wanted to change his situation but doesn’t know where to get started. Then, he realized that he must change his attitudes first to change his situation. So while working for Petroleum Company for seven years, he prepared himself, he learned to work with other people and learned from them, studied who David Neagle is, and how to be a successful person. Later, David decided to leave the corporate world and build his own business. He left his work to consulting, coaching, speaking, and that he built Neagle Media. Because David was very determined to win, he had developed the ability to lose without taking it personally, take chances, take risks, develop the good attitudes, frameworks, and learn from the mistakes and people he had with. A mentor motivated him to become a good follower; he gets rid of his ego and the shame around asking for help which he had no idea that it was blocking him so much. Just like other entrepreneurs, he encountered bumps and challenges but learned to accept himself and embraced it. To him, failing is fine but what’s not fine is that you never try what you desire to do with. Losing is not the end, so stand, and back up. Thus, stop being afraid of making decisions and failing but always find the right thing about the things that got wrong, learned from it and go on. He learned the strategy and tactics to enjoy success just like other entrepreneurs because mistakes don’t really bother him but he used it to continue to grow and expand. David gives advice on not investing in the things that you don’t understand and develop skills set in understanding your business like sales, marketing, social media, and stuff like that. On the other side, despite his success, David has always had a deep desire in helping people the way his mentor had helped him. From starting off with the basic idea of wealth fund - just taking 10 cents out of every dollar that came to the company to now having multiple companies and helping people to be free and creating the lifestyle they want. Therefore, he expands it more globally to really touch people’s lives all over.  Neagle believes that entrepreneurship is something that’s going to bring us together as a world more than it is that something that’s going to divide us because most entrepreneurs want to do something good! Some Questions I Ask: Where did your journey begin from an entrepreneurial perspective? (00:43) What do you think is the one among the key characteristics of successful entrepreneurs that served you at the highest level as a business owner?

Aside from that, innately, Mitzi’s father built a deep connection and concern for all his employees. He believed in them and gave them all the resources and encouragement to show the world just how good they are. Hence, communication between them is very important to him. Although he doesn’t want his hotel to be the biggest, he created a great value-based culture and a team in order to be the best hotel in the locality. Distinct from other successful entrepreneurs, he had a lot of time with his children, teaching them values of not getting the identity through spending money and luxurious materials.

Living like a millionaire in all areas of his life and staying connected to the people around him. During Mitzi’s childhood, her way of grabbing his parent’s attention was by asking his father about business. Never think it would be a big advantage to her in later life and career. Thus, a spiritual gift of hospitality was given to her. Luckily, she found a husband who has the same characteristics as his father especially in running their business. Likewise, Mitzi inherits the culture and beliefs from her father in her own entrepreneurial journey that truly build a legacy and generational wealth. Some Questions I Ask: Who is Mitzi Perdue?
