All too often, we make life about the numbers. Whether it's a revenue target for our businesses or how much money we'll need to retire, we obsess over where we would like to be in the future. And we lose focus on what we can be doing right now to live a life we really love. Allowing us to make a difference to the people and causes we care about and most likely accomplish more than we may have thought possible.

In this week's episode of the Truest Fan Podcast, you'll meet Michael DeLon, a servant leader who loves to encourage others to be their very best. Michael is the owner of Paperback Expert where he helps thought leaders tell their stories and bring their credibility to the marketplace. Many of his clients are financial advisors.

Our conversation was packed with great wisdom and a ton of energy. Here are just a few of the highlights:

 

(04:13) The hidden power that can come from servant leadership.

(07:48) Why it's okay to be content as long as we're not complacent.

(11:34) How building others up makes us stronger.

(15:16) Why adding up the numbers could be the wrong formula for measuring success.

(25:47) Being authentic trumps trying to be what you think others want.
