836 » Why You Need A Vision For Your Business

Real estate experts love to focus on so many different things, like wholesaling and raising capital and flipping houses, and oh, rehabbing too. All of these scattered focus shows up in their bank balance. They work 80 hours a week so they don’t have to work 40 hours a week, and they listen to that voice that tells them to hustle their face-off. Who gave you that vision anyway? Shaun McCloskey knows this culture well, and he wants you to have a better vision. 85% of people don’t like what they’re doing, he says, and not many of us are keeping our New Year’s resolutions either. We want some change in our life, but we don’t know how to make that happen. For 13 years, Shaun’s been coaching high-level entrepreneurs to create a vision that allows them to live the life they want. He starts with their vision first and then helps them build their business around that. He breaks that down for me and then shows me what that kind of work looks like for some of his clients. By helping his clients combine what they love, what the world needs, what they can make money at, and what they’re really good at, he can help them identify their new direction. He talks about how he uses Humanlytics to create a personality profile that helps his clients get to the point where they truly “Know Thyself”. Shaun walks us through some of the thinking exercises that he does with clients, helping them see what they truly want in their personal and business lives. Today’s podcast is a closeup view of the workshop he’s hosting in St. Louis on March 12-14th, which you should totally come to since I’m speaking at it. He’s invited 12 experts (and me!) to a panel to talk about how you can create a life vision that you really love. If you come to this event, you can expect to prune some things out of your life to make room for more success, more family time, and more personal development.
