After interviewing over 100 billionaires and ultra-successful entrepreneurs, I’ve spotted three lessons that come up every single time — no matter the industry, background, or business model. In this episode, I break down exactly what I’ve learned from these conversations so you can model the same habits, mindsets, and strategies that separate the world’s top founders from everyone else. Here’s what you’ll take away: • Why surrounding yourself with the right people will make or break your success • How resilience lets top entrepreneurs push through when most give up • Why the fastest growth comes from learning directly from those ahead of you If you apply even one of these lessons, you’ll put yourself on the same trajectory as some of the most successful entrepreneurs alive today — and start making decisions like the billionaires I’ve had the privilege to learn from.
