#191: How To Turn Your Knowledge, Passion, And Experience Into An Income Stream | With Graham Cochrane


Listen Later

You probably got into the freelance world based on something you were passionate about, however, you likely know by now that it takes more than passion to create a real income.

Making the move from passion-led freelancer to "6 figure creative" takes a brand new set of skills, beliefs, and character traits that no university or trade school will bother teaching you.

One person who's successfully navigated the entire journey from "broke to millionaire" is Graham Cochrane.

Graham started out as a passionate young musician who failed to achieve his dream of launching a successful band. From there, he sank into an unfulfilling day job while trying to build a freelance career on the side.

Along the way, through many ups and downs, he's actually used all of his accumulated skills, experiences, and lessons to launch two separate 7-figure businesses.

Graham came onto the podcast to share some of these lessons with us in an incredible interview.

In this episode you’ll discover:

  • Why passion isn't everything
  • Elements you need to succeed in business
  • Listening to Gary V? Don't. (sometimes)
  • How you're over-optimizing your business
  • Separating you from your job
  • Where to get the next 6FC favorite book
