Mike Fallat's Inner Circle Podcast

Do you ever feel like a prisoner? 

2,400 years ago, Socrates described this to one of his students and called it “The Cave.” 

“The Cave” is about how society turns its people into prisoners — without them even realizing it. And the more you try to escape the cave, the more the other prisoners try to pull you back down to their level. 

You will experience this same story through your journey to entrepreneurship. People you grew up with become envious. They’ll criticize you and call you foolish.

But if you escape the cave, you’ll experience more freedom and success than you can imagine. It’s the best feeling in the world. 

In this episode, you’ll discover how to escape the cave and not care about the opinions of the prinosers you’re leaving behind. 

Listen to the episode now, escape the cave, and experience the freedom most people can only dream about.

Most entrepreneurs think the best way to make more money is by leveling up their skills. While there’s a grain of truth in this, there are people with world-class skills who are flat out broke. 

Why? 

Because your skill set is only one factor of your wealth. And it’s not even the most important one. 

The most important factor is something called your lifestyle thermostat. It’s something only the richest among us realize — until now. 

In today’s episode, you’ll discover what your lifestyle thermostat is and to raise it. Because once you raise it, you’ll be one of the wealthiest people in America (even if your bank account doesn’t reflect that right now). 

Listen to the episode now and raise your lifestyle thermostat.

When you first learn a new skill, you’re going to suck. There’s no other way around it.

But unbelievable success waits for you just through the door of failure. 

In this episode, I reveal simple, yet difficult practices that help you improve at anything at lightspeed. Listen to the episode now.

If you turn on the news today, you’re bombarded with people who “need” a higher minimum wage or free health care. And if you don’t shut off your TV ASAP, you realize they blame everyone around them for their problems instead of taking responsibility. 

Here’s why I bring this up: 

When you lead with your “need,” you’re destined to fail. It doesn’t matter if you want free health care or if you want to land a 6-figure client. 

But when you lead with your seed — your unique value to the world — you get everything you want out of life and more. 

In this episode, I reveal the powerful way to reap what you sow by having a service mindset. And how this subtle mindset shift can forever change your finances, family, and happiness.

• How your closest friends and family members prevent you from achieving your wildest dreams (7:38)
