June 03, 201512: The Art of Never Settling for Less than Extraordinary, with John Terhune
John Terhune failed his law school entrance test. And then he failed that test again. And then he failed that test again. And then, yes, he failed that test again… As a matter of fact it took John 5 attempts at the test to get into law school. But when you consider Johns’ track record of a 97% success rate in over 5,000 criminal cases over the span of a decade-long career as a lawyer, suddenly your image of him changes from “meh” to “WOW!,” doesn’t it?
Today, John Terhune is one of the world’s most in-demand speakers and an exceptional Attitude Coach, who teaches professionals how to find success by building the right attitude towards work and life. This truly extraordinary man, in every sense of the word and every area of life, joins me (Robert) on the Rusty Lion Podcast today to discuss the secrets behind his success and to show YOU how to build the life of your dreams by changing the way you think.
Tune in to the podcast now to listen John talk about:
Why he LOVES the entrepreneurial spirit and credits it for the progress of all of humankind.
Why EVERY business is a people business first, and a product business second. And how you can use this wisdom to unlock the full potential of YOUR employees and their talents.
Why YOU should separate your habits and behaviors from those of the average person (only if you want to succeed, of course).
Why his proudest accomplishments are not the official honors and awards he’s won over the years, but something much, MUCH simpler that comes from the sentiment of the people on the street (and what that is. Can you guess?)
The most important VALUE to have in business and in life, even if it costs you MILLIONS in business deals (like it did for John at a crucial stage in his career), and why it matters.
The 3 words that will SAVE YOUR MARRIAGE and keep your personal life in balance with your entrepreneurial ambition.
Why your most important ASSET is your ATTITUDE, and how to NEVER allow anyone to steal that from you (and what to do instead).
What his father taught him about LEADERSHIP and TREATING OTHERS that has been the catalyst for his success.
His advice to young entrepreneurs about the one thing that will catapult them to great success—but only if they get it right.

Starting from very humble beginnings in rural Iowa, Roger Sulhoff ventured off to start his own business at just 30 years of age.

How YOU can stay on course with your calling, regardless of the bad choices other people around you make.
How at his next company he lead a team of 200 representatives to building extraordinary lives, earning himself an Award for Leadership, Character, and Godly Guidance.
