EP 75: Burton Hughes - The Mindset You Need to Align Your Empire
How often do you hear entrepreneurs throw around the concept of "alignment" when it's clear that they don't know what it means? Actual, potent alignment requires just six core assets.
Burton Hughes grew up tired of hearing the words: “That’s not for you” that was often uttered when he sought to escape his impoverished upbringing. He was a child who had endured so much that he had very little hope of getting out of his tragic and tumultuous environment. And the statistics were grim. Witnessing the near murder of his mother only to be thrust into unfathomable grief when he lost his older and revered brother “stole his air.” But the inner grit and strength in Burton wouldn’t die. He knew at a young age, a quality that he couldn’t yet identify resided in him. It was hope. The relentless and deep knowledge that more was out there gave him the push he needed to escape his old life and reinforce that he would finally decide what was for him or not.
Coupled with a never-say-die work ethic, fierce intellect, and literal model good looks, Burton wasn’t comfortable with his gifts. Then one horrific day, he almost lost it all. His life hung in the balance. The lowest point of his life taught him how much he had at stake. That called him for more, and people were out there waiting for him to lift them to find their liberation and success.
Fueled by his discovery of the Six Assets of Alignment, Burton dismantled the work-life balance concept’s improbability, instructing his clients instead of in the art of aligning the six major areas of their life most needing cultivation. Mindset, Faith, Family, Fitness, Finances, and Networking require varying attention levels according to the goal plan devised. He lives by the Six Assets of Alignment every day and encourages people to follow his lead, knowing their brand of success is waiting.
After implementing the Six Assets of Alignment into his existence, he empowered himself to establish various businesses modeled for multiple media outlets. He coached clients in reaching their elite life goals. He continues to strive for greatness every day.
On this episode of the Step It Up Entrepreneur podcast, Tomas and Burton dig into the unique scarcity-esque mindset that keeps Burton going every day. He talks about how to structure your life to make your family the #1 priority, inspired Burton to write Align Your Empire, and the building blocks of a rock-solid support system of people who align with your goals. Listen in for an interview that will set you straight on what effective, fulfilling alignment looks like - and how to bring it into being in your own life.
What You’ll Learn:
- How Burton got genuinely tapped into his sense of confidence (and why the place where he found that faith wasn't what he expected)
- What begins to happen in your life, especially your social circles, when you start spending time with high-level, like-minded people
- Why Burton intentionally made his book interactive and easily integrated into readers' lifestyles
- And much more!
Favorite Quote:
"The biggest thing you can do if you're going through some challenges right now...look at what happened. It's not who you are. It's what happened to you. But remember, life happens to you because of you. So, the choices thou make today, good or bad, will be consequences - but what can you learn, and what can you change? That's the lesson to be learned."
