LEARN THE WISDOM TO BE SUCCESSFUL   

On this episode of The Game Changing Podcast, we welcome Mike Calhoun, the CEO of the Board of Advisors. The mastermind format brings together a group of individuals committed to improving their craft and sharing their expertise.

Mike shares how bringing synergy to community members is a strong catalyst for growth. Just being around people who have achieved the successes you want teaches you by osmosis, and vice versa. 

This is amplified when you have dedicated advisors who watch you and bring valuable perspectives to the table. Mike also shares anecdotes about his first jobs and how problem-solving is the top skill to his success. 

GAME-CHANGING NUGGETS

Mike: A community of advisors makes verification straightforward

"There is the opportunity to have that speed of trust because you have an affinity with members, but you also have the ability to quickly verify. It's hard. I mean, in certain, let's call it regular relationships or regular environments, it's hard to know who is the trusted resource."

Mike: Learn the wisdom of those who carry even greater weights than you

"Sometimes we're like oh my gosh, I can't believe the weight that I'm carrying currently at the moment with taxes and payroll and this and that, and the list goes on. And then sitting across the table who's doing 10 times what you're doing, going through 10 times the crap, and they have wisdom. They have peace, and calm. They have experience."

Mike: Problem-solving through situations is the key to success

"Investing in yourself so that you can invest in others is how you become valuable. So what I figured out is early on, how do I become valuable to other people? Because as soon as I'm valuable, part of is your presentation of yourself, part of it is that communication, part of it is having the ability to say yes and figure things out and problem-solve because what that does is it gives you experience, and that's all really people want."
