Mike Matthews — Building An 8-Figure Company, Deciding What's Worth Doing, & Accelerated Learning Techniques | MTFP Ep.79

I was excited to finally have this handsome guy on the podcast, and even more excited to share our conversation with you all today. For the two people who are unaware, Mike Matthews is the founder and CEO of Legion Athletics as well as a bestselling fitness author of several books, including Bigger Leaner Stronger, Thinner Leaner Stronger, and The Shredded Chef. His simple and science-based approach to building muscle, losing fat, and getting healthy has sold over a million books, helped thousands of people build their best bodies ever, and his work has been featured in many popular outlets including Esquire, Men’s Health, Elle, Women’s Health, Muscle & Strength, and more, as well as on FOX and ABC. In this episode, Mike covered his back story of how he went from an "average guy" to building an 8-figure company, being a best-selling author, and much more. Beyond the story, I really wanted to dive into how Mike thinks — how he makes decisions, if he has any mentors, his best tactics for learning and retaining new information (to which he gave an incredible answer), how he decides what's worth doing (or not doing), what drives him on a daily basis, plus others. Towards the end of the podcast, we even get into what Mike plans on doing when he retires, what excites him about the future, and... his pseudonym, for when he creates short stories and video games? It's a fun one, so I hope you enjoy!
