When Steve started a company, he thought he was going to be mainly serving entrepreneurs and people who are looking to become successful. But what he found out was the complete opposite, his clientele turned out to already be some of the most successful people on the planet.



These people (many on the Forbes Billionaires list) were already at the head of their class, they were leading big teams, running corporations and they were extremely successful by any measure. Today, we talk about how Steve has made this interesting shift from a company that he thought was going to be focused on just delivering small summaries to people for a monthly fee to a company that has a unique way of measuring how the most successful people learn, how often they go back to their material, what they do with it, and how they integrate it into their life. Here’s a sneak peak at what we cover:



* – The gap between consuming info & practicing it* – How the most successful people learn* – The effectiveness pyramid* – Defining the “desired result”* – “Practicesizing” makes perfect* – The 5 stages of growth* – Knowledge vs. action + behaviors

And now there’s, you know, micro courses, master classes. How many books do you have on there total? There’s hundreds, hundreds of titles, most of which have audio and video and fun animations and a lot of them have exercises to do afterwards. So Steve, how did you get this idea for this company and why do you do what you do, and what are you doing now?Steve: (01:09)Well, like everything in my life,
