Episode 67: Richard Di Biase & David Moskowitz share their journey of leaving the traditional 9 to 5 work life and embracing entrepreneurship. They share how this decision has been rewarding, allowing them to give back to their employees and gain valuable insights from their staff and customers.
One of the key topics they delve into is the importance of recognizing that "titles" do not define a person. In their previous careers, such as policing, where titles and working in silos were prevalent. They emphasize that the world doesn't care about your rank or job title; it's the impact you make that truly matters.
Emphasizing the importance of technology, especially AI, they share how technological advancements, particularly in artificial intelligence, have significantly contributed to their business growth, creativity and efficiency. They explore how AI tools have enabled them to brainstorm ideas in detail, providing valuable insights and data-driven decisions.
Another essential aspect they discuss is time management. Richard and David stress the importance of scheduling every aspect of life, especially business commitments, into calendars. By blocking out time for important tasks, they ensure productivity and focus on their priorities. They discuss their reliance on calendar tools like Outlook and Google, which have proven invaluable in keeping them organized and on track.
Join Richard Di Biase and David Moskowitz in this engaging episode as they share their valuable insights on entrepreneurship, embracing change, leveraging technology, and mastering time management. Get ready to be inspired and empowered to take charge of your own path to success.
