We’ve heard of great businessmen who made their millions and continue to make millions. How we truly admire them for steering their businesses into a path that would chart a successful venture. We see how successful they are, but have we taken the time to really know how they started out?
It’s in the building stages of a business that we see the character that they imbibe that we should all emulate if we want to be as successful as they are. Their businesses are not what they are now if not for the discomfort that they went through. It would make sense to know the brutal truth about what it takes to start it, flourish it, innovating it, stay relevant, and ultimately thrive.
Zander Fryer, a best-selling author, internationally renowned speaker, and world traveler is more than just a corporate dropout. After quitting his successful corporate career at age 27, Zander launched his company, High Impact Coaching, to inspire and empower entrepreneurs to build successful businesses while adding value to the world.

A mentor to millionaires, Grammy-winning artists, and bestselling authors alike, he is praised as “the next generation leader” by #1 best-selling author Jack Canfield and regarded as “unstoppable” by the president of Massively Human Leadership, Kathleen Seeley. Zander’s passion to drive the next generation of leaders and shake this world up is creating a movement.
Listen in to this episode as Zander zeroes in on how truly coming out of your comfort zone every time will get you to reach your goal. To him, life is consistently challenging yourself to do what scares you the most. It is in doing so that you gain better insight at things around that helps you scale up and test what you are capable of doing. Talk about mindset, persistence, resiliency, and relentlessness - he will teach you that through his experience. Yes, he never reached his stellar success on just a silver platter. He worked hard at it and visualized it. You have to acknowledge the power of visualization. It has done so much for him, it will also work for you.
When it comes to marketing your business, he has a valid point when he says that coaches make a mistake when they put out there what they want their clients to do instead of what their clients want. You need to market and sell properly.
He also sends a strong point when he says you need to be a good businessman before you have to be a great coach. This will help you weather any economic adversity the world will face and even if your business tumbles down with the crisis you can easily build it up again. And there is no reason to be worried about online space being saturated with coaches and trainers because for all you know, with the world shifting into a new normal, self-care has become even more important than it ever is. And lastly, get to be versatile, that’s the only way to ride out any challenge the world throws at us.
