How Does Watching Movies IN REVERSE Help You Become a Better Entrepreneur?


Listen Later

When I was a kid, I used to go to the movies with my friends all the time. And we had this little trick, where, after it ended, we’d sneak into another theater so we could watch the last 20-30 minutes of a different movie.

Later, when I would watch that same movie from beginning to end, knowing the ending completely changed the entire experience. 

Watching the story unfold in a different direction gave me a lot more insight into the movie structure itself.

So what does starting a business and watching a movie in reverse have in common?

For us, it was all about having fun and watching as many movies as we possibly could. 

I realize now that this is also an excellent method for learning about the best way to develop a roadmap for your brand new business.

Great entrepreneurs start at the end and work their way back.

When you define an ending, you also give your journey a powerful sense of direction. And when you know how the story ends, it’s a lot easier to work your way back to the beginning and map out all the steps you need to go through before getting to where you want to go.

Today’s episode is dedicated to all entrepreneurs out there who are feeling a bit stuck. I hope this trick will help you get moving again!
