Inspire Your Success

Have you ever asked yourself, "How do I find my passion?" 

Ever since I left the 9-5 corporate world in 2017 to follow my passions, I seem to find so many people who want to do the same but don't know where to start.

For me, finding my passion wasn't something that happened overnight. It took a lot of trial and error. And that's what I recommend you do to get started.

Try any and everything to see what fits and what doesn't in your life. Ultimately, you will be much happier if you can find work that is fulfilling and do what you love. 

Because a lot of your time is spent at work and life is way too short to spend tons of time doing something you hate. Even if the money is good, it's going to get to the point where fulfillment is better than money. 

And once you do what you love, after time you will probably end up making more than you ever would doing something you hate. 

As Nelson Mandela once said, "There is no passion to be found playing small -- in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living."

Here's to YOU finding your passion in 2019. It's time to make this the best year of your life.

Ever wondered how people actually make money online? 

Trust me, I get it.

A few years ago all I knew was the 9-5 bi-weekly paycheck. I never really got how people made money from Youtube, blogs or other online side hustles.

But if you want to create a location independent lifestyle, you need to learn how to make online income. And let me tell you, it's more than possible.

Back in 2017, I had made a whopping $200 EVER from my blog. Since then I've learned 7 ways to make $1,000+ from all kinds of different businesses.

I'll show you 7-ways myself and tons of other entrepreneurs have earned their first $1,000 online, even if you have no experience. Hopefully, this episode can spark an idea to help you learn how to make money online.

And you never know, one good side hustle could turn into a full-time business where you're the boss!

• “Get very clear on your goal. It’s black and white yes or no. It either gets you to your goal or it’s a distraction.”
• “One thing I want people to know is that you don’t have to be techy to make money online. That couldn’t be further from the truth. If you’re not technical it does not matter.”

January brings a new year and new chance to change your life. But so many people fall victim to New Years Resolutions and fake goal setting that they're back to the same habits by mid-January.

One of the reasons is that they aren't clear about what went well and what went poorly the previous year. Each year I like to evaluate my previous year so I can always improve the following year.

2018 was my first full calendar year of entrepreneurship and I learned a ton so I wanted to share my biggest lessons. These 10 lessons will help you find more success in business and life in 2019. Learn from my mistakes in entrepreneurship (and life) so you can speed up success! 

Welcome to the first episode of Inspire Your Success podcast. My name is Michael Leonard and I'm so glad you're here with me today. 

I started this blog (inspireyoursuccess.com) and podcast to help you build an online business and learn the habits of successful entrepreneurs. In this episode, I document why I left a cushy, 6-figure job in 2017 to pursue entrepreneurship. At the end of the day, I was unfulfilled and knew I was meant to do more than sit at a cubicle for the rest of my life.

When I left, most people thought I was crazy. The craziest part is that when I quit, I had $0 coming in. In fact, I had only made $200 from my blog ever. Luckily, I saved a lot before quitting so give myself the chance to bet on myself. 

I knew I had to burn the boats to take the island.

Now that I've been on this journey for nearly two years, I want to share more about my story with this podcast to help people like me. In this podcast, I'll be sharing experiences of my journey and interview entrepreneurs, coaches, authors, and successful people to share their secrets. 

Thanks so much for being here with me, I look forward to inspiring YOUR success!
