Monetise Your Passions And Achieve Success - with John Lee

What this episode covers

In this very special episode, Jessen talks to speaker, best-selling author, entrepreneur, property investor, and co-founder of the Wealth Dragons Group, John Lee. John talks candidly about his business journey - one that has taken him through highs and lows, but ultimately towards incredible success - his goal to educate others in the art of entrepreneurship, the value of branding when it comes to an online presence, and the techniques and strategies he has employed to become an inspirational powerhouse. KEY TAKEAWAYS There is no formal education route when it comes to business success. Entrepreneurship is not taught in school. Knowledge comes from experience, but it can also be provided by mentorship and coaching. Find something that you are passionate about, and which pays you well. If it makes the world a better place, then this is the ultimate goal in life. Creating a social media brand is not just about making sales. It also serves to attract opportunities that may otherwise remain elusive to us. In order to monetise the things we are passionate about we must first identify what that thing is, look for ways to create content around that subject, look for the monetisation platform that will work, followed by marketing BEST MOMENTS 'People are hungry to up-skill. They're hungry to learn new stuff' 'I took my own destiny into my own hands' 'It's the people with the best information who wins' 'If you're passionate about something, then you can monetise it' VALUABLE RESOURCES Mind Over Money Podcast - https://omny.fm/shows/mind-over-money ABOUT THE GUEST John was born to Chinese parents who ran a takeaway in the north of England, where he helped out washing dishes from the age of eleven.
