My guest today is talking about a topic we’ve never touched on Good Money before: solitude. Now before you start rolling your eyes thinking of a 7 day silence retreat or taking yoga classes like Aunt Betty, this is absolutely not that kind of solitude.

As an intelligence officer in 3 combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, Mike Erwin shares how the simple art of cutting out the noise transformed his creativity and decision-making—and how it can transform yours too. Solitude can make you more money, and Mike tells stories of how successful business and historical leaders have used it to their advantage. PLUS, I ask Mike his honest thoughts about what’s happening in Afghanistan and how we can help. 

3 KEYS TO SUCCESS:

• Solitude can be practiced anywhere 
• When you practice solitude, you’ll be more creative in challenging situations than your peers
• Start “brainwriting” - ask your team to write out 3 ideas on a piece of paper instead of sharing them out loud in front of the group

Dave Hollis isn’t playing around today. At the height of his career as a Disney executive, Dave found himself unhappy, unfulfilled, and handcuffed to a career that wasn’t aligned with his goals. He realized something important: he had climbed the ladder to someone else’s idea of success, because he didn’t have his own. 

In the midst of facing great adversity this year (in the public eye), Dave decided to become friends with his fears and figure out why they had held him back for so long. The answer might surprise you. 

Don’t miss the plea Dave gives us at the end of the show—it’s powerful. 

3 KEYS FROM DAVE:

• If you found out today you only had two years to live, what would you do differently with the time you had left?
• Imposter syndrome = shame and lack of confidence. 
• Start failing - in your comfort zone there is zero growth

Jay Fantom explains how four near-death experiences have shaped his life and led to the start of his popular podcast. He shares the simple money advice he received from his grandfather that keeps him financially grounded. If you’re feeling discouraged in your business or your personal life, Jay says you have no control over rejection, but you do have control of how you handle it. He wants you to use rejection as the fuel to move forward!

What you will learn:

• God has a continuous plan for your life

• Kindness speaks volumes
• Everyone is a leader
• Speak your truth
• Ask yourself tough questions
• Expect rejection
• You have options when being generous
• Have a rainy-day fund
• Be persistent to remain consistent
• Use fear for your benefit

Quotes:

• “Kindness speaks incredible volumes. If you’re kind to someone else, imagine the impact that you can make, how you can make them feel, so then they can go about and be kind to someone else.” – Jay Fantom
• “Everyone is a leader. So, are you going to be a good one or are you going to be a bad one?” – Jay Fantom
• “Don’t be afraid to speak your truth, to speak what you believe in and why you believe it, know it, wholeheartedly.” – Jay Fantom
• “Look yourself in the mirror and see yourself as an individual brand new person, with a brand new idea, and a brand new perspective, and take that to the world.” – Derrick Kinney
• “You are, and forever will be, valuable.” – Jay Fantom
• “Because knowledge is power personified, I believe that if you have that knowledge in your corner, imagine what you can do!” – Jay Fantom
• “I think that’s the key right there- not becoming a slave to money, where your net worth and your self-worth, even more importantly, is solely judged by the size of your bank account.” – Derrick Kinney
• “It doesn’t matter how much rejection or how many obstacles are faced along the way. The only way you’re going to get through is when you’re persistent and tell yourself, ‘I’m not going to give up.’” – Jay Fantom
