Arnold Schwarzenegger joins us for a special Live edition of Business Lunch with Roland Frasier podcast. His official bio is 'Austrian American actor, businessman, retired professional bodybuilder, and former politician who served as the 38th governor of California'. You may know him as 'The Terminator'. However you know him, Arnold has a lot to offer anyone looking to realize their dreams and goals.

You’ve heard of Richard Branson. If you’re an entrepreneur, you are a fan of this "Tie-loathing adventurer, philanthropist & troublemaker, who believes in turning ideas into reality". Before our world was hit with this Pandemic, our host Roland Frasier, managed to maneuver a deal that led to this conversation with the founder of Virgin. On our 250th Episode, you’ll hear what they talked about, the advice Richard gives to Entrepreneurs like you, and the mindset that precedes world-changing success.

“Labeling Something As Impossible Is Easy. It Doesn’t Require You To Try…”

If you’ve ever felt like what you want to do might be impossible, or that it will take too long, or that “no-one has done it before, so it’s probably a pipe dream”… this episode is for you. You can challenge the impossible.

With so many new listeners joining us on the show, we want to make sure you’re hearing directly from our host for ’a minute’. Who is this guy who gets in rooms with Business Titans and deals with an extraordinary number of entrepreneurs? He’s often described as ‘the smartest guy in the room’ and today instead of an interview, Roland shares some big questions and historical evidence, that will inspire you to BELIEVE! 

A Mindset For Success.

It’s one thing to be impressed by someone’s entrepreneurial endeavors and glean takeaways and tips. It’s another thing to think how the highly-successful think. You need to adopt the same mindset that all successful men and women share. And this episode will help you do that.

“Ultra-high achievers align themselves and their dreams to opportunities that match their talent, skills, and resources, at times at which those opportunities present themselves. They increase the breadth of what’s possible for them by sculpting their own possibility vision, with the chisel of data and opportunity.” Roland Frasier.

Roland Challenges The 'Impossible'.

1. Legally mandated impossibilities.
2. Physical impossibilities.
3. Perceptual impossibilities.
4. Fiscal Impossibilities.
5. Societal Impossibilities.

“Tens of thousands of bold and persistent entrepreneurs before you have stared down doubt, pushed past legal impossibilities, overcome physical impossibilities, dreamt impossible dreams and brought them to reality, broken through immense fiscal impossibilities and persisted past social impossibilities.” Roland Frasier

How To Challenge The Impossible In Your Business.

Can you do as billionaire Peter Theil suggests and achieve your 10-year goals in 6 months in Business? Is the possible only limited by your mindset, or are there possibilities that elude you which are simply beyond your reach? 

Throughout history, we have seen the limits of the possible expanded again and again.

“If these amazing (formerly assumed impossible) things could be invented, and these formerly thought unachievable human feats could be done, then surely you can hit your 10-year business goals in 6 months? Or accomplish in 1 year what most would take 3 or 5 years to accomplish?” Roland Frasier

Spoiler Alert

“Massive rapid hyper-growth is indeed very possible”. Roland Frasier

A Five-Step Plan To Achieve Anything.

Step 1 Find the Fire.

Step 2 Conceive and Believe. Your subconscious will not allow you to achieve something that it hasn’t seen as possible at first. Challenge the Impossible.

Step 3 Practice Adaptive versus Non-adaptive possibility (otherwise, you’ll have trouble seeing it as possible and accomplishing step 2)

Step 4 Apply data-informed resource opportunity alignment.

Step 5 Pursue, persist, and persevere.

“The truth is that there are very few things that are truly impossible. I believe in you. Now you go make the change, and be the change”. Roland Frasier

Listen To This Episode For,

• Why he regrets going International too soon.

• His thoughts on Branding.

“So you’ve got to build something that works really well. If you don’t get your product dialed in and you try and build a good brand around a bad product, you’re a scammer.” Asprey

• Advice on building a company on a shoestring budget.

“If you get a company that’s full of enthusiastic people who haven’t navigated these waters before, they’ll get there. But there might be some bodies along the way. But if you have a guide on the Safari who kind of knows where the potholes are, you might get there more intact and then spend less money. So it’s a question of capital efficiency.” Asprey. 

How To Not ‘Break The Team’.

• Why it’s your ethical responsibility to ‘hack’ your employees.
• The rewards of investing in your team and their personal development.

“If you are not sending them out for a leadership training, or management training, where they can become both better at the business, but also better as human beings, you’re actually not getting a very good return on the investment that you make in your people. So I consider that to be part of being a good company.” Asprey.

• What to look for when picking your board of directors.
• Management mistakes to avoid.
• How to spot people that will help you scale.

“These are people who will share their jobs, the people who are secure in who they are and secure in what they do. Those are your people. And those are the ones who will help you scale and scale and scale”. Asprey.

• Why over-titling creates pain.

“Do you know how many sub-million dollar companies with four employees need three C-level officers? Zero. Hire directors because it’s a lot less painful.” Asprey.
