EPISODE 42:

Here’s my guarantee about today’s episode. It will not only inspire you but will also push you to think about important questions you don’t usually ask yourself.

I’m amused that this is the 42nd episode. I can quite comfortably title this episode “The Answer to Life, The Universe and Everything”, for one of my favourite authors is Douglas Adams :). If you haven’t read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, forgive me for that inside joke.

It’s an important episode because the takeaways are profound and could put you on the path to figuring out what you really want your life to be about.

We need people like Colin Wright (today’s guest) to help us take a step back and examine where we are in our careers, business and life. Colin is a full-time traveler; he travels to a new place every 4 months based on suggestions from his blog readers. He quit his unfulfilling business 6 years ago to start doing something he had no experience in: writing books.

This is the kind of interview I crave for and with Colin, I got it. Here’s what Colin and I talk about:

  • Why and how Colin quit his business, even though the money was great.
  • What the transition from his old business to full time travel and writing was like, and the first thing he started doing.
  • What he realized when he met a couple of billionaires, and how his thinking progressed from that point on.
  • How to stay calm when making a big career and life change. The key thing you need to recognize in these situations.
  • His thoughts on Time vs. Money.
  • How he built an audience of more than a million people.
  • How to build your personal brand through effective storytelling.
  • Starting a business…how to reconcile passion vs. skill.
  • 3 key actions you can take to build a business that makes you happy.
