”You have to love the process, not just the result”   Everyone says that in the entrepreneur and personal development space, and so often when people finally reach their big goals, they miss the climb and don't know what to do next.   This is an audio-only podcast you won’t find on the YouTube channel because I think there are some lessons that are better taught when I’m not in front of a camera.   In this lesson I share my evolving thoughts on being present for the process of chasing my own business and investing goals. Sheer Strength Labs, the company I reacquired after my big exit, had it’s first big sales day where it hit a $1 million run rate again and that’s been really exciting but I can’t help but come back to the biggest lesson I’ve ever learned about growth: Fast is bad and slow is good.   Connect with me on Instagram at https://instagram.com/ryandanielmoran   If you're ready to start your road to $1M, head to https://capitalism.com/playbook   If you're already at the $1M/year mark and want to partner with us, head to https://capitalism.com/inc

There are three types of money: 1. Cashflow, 2. Wealth, and 3. Enterprise Value   Everyone loves to focus on the first two without thinking about the third, which is where fortunes are made.   If you switch the order and think about Enterprise Value first, you have a shot at building something that can set you financially free for life.   Head to https://capitalism.com/playbook to see how we grow and scale brands to the million dollar mark and beyond.    Scale to the $1M/year mark and beyond in the Capitalism Incubator at https://capitalism.com/inc   Connect with me on Instagram at https://instagram.com/ryandanielmoran

Mike Chang grew Six Pack Shortcuts to a multi 8-figure company before leaving everything to on a spiritual journey.   It's been 9 years since Mike left the entrepreneurial scene at the height of his career, and today Mike and I sat down to talk about what happened and lessons learned along the way.   For years Mike was the guy that everyone in my industry looked up to. People copied his strategies and aspired to reach his level of success but then he walked away from it all.  After going on his spiritual journey now he is coming back into business with a very different perspective and set of goals. In this podcast we discuss what business looks like when purpose, fulfillment, and peaceful balance are the goals instead of the usual nonstop hustle.   Head to https://capitalism.com/playbook to see how we grow and scale brands to the million dollar mark and beyond.    Scale to the $1M/year mark and beyond in the Capitalism Incubator at https://capitalism.com/inc   Connect with me on Instagram at https://instagram.com/ryandanielmoran
