    Pat Flynn: From Zero to 1M Subscribers - The Pokemon Dad's Secret Formula

    Order my newest book Make Money Easy! https://lewishowes.com/moneyyou Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1777 "When you put yourself out there in the world, your vibe will attract your tribe." - Pat Flynn Pat Flynn's journey from curious dad to million-subscriber YouTube sensation reveals the extraordinary power of authentic connection and strategic community building. When his children discovered Pokemon during the pandemic, most parents would have simply bought the cards and moved on. Instead, Pat saw an opportunity to bridge generational gaps and create something meaningful. His approach wasn't to jump in blindly—he spent months immersing himself in the Pokemon community, becoming a moderator, attending events, and truly understanding what collectors wanted before ever hitting record. This patient, relationship-first strategy transformed a simple hobby into a thriving business that now hosts 5,000-person live events and attracts partnerships with major sports teams. The entrepreneur's methodology extends far beyond Pokemon cards, offering a blueprint for anyone looking to monetize their passions authentically. Pat's willingness to hire a 15-year-old Fortnite coach to connect with his kids, his decision to research communities before creating content, and his bold pitch to open Pokemon packs at Ford Field demonstrate how curiosity and genuine interest can unlock unexpected opportunities. His story proves that success isn't about chasing trends—it's about finding your tribe, serving them authentically, and letting organic growth compound over time. From zero to 100,000 subscribers in under a year to over 1 million today, Pat's journey shows how embracing your authentic interests, no matter how niche, can create profound business and personal fulfillment.

    Daniel Priestley: Why Your School Career Plan is Dead (New Economy Secrets)

    Order my newest book Make Money Easy! https://lewishowes.com/moneyyou Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1776 "The dying economy is the economy that you were prepared for in the schooling system... but since the two thousands, and especially since 2020 when we had the pandemic, the way that the world works no longer sits like that." - Daniel Priestley The traditional career path your school prepared you for is dead. Entrepreneur and business strategist Daniel Priestley reveals how the industrial age model of 15 years of education, 25 years as a worker, 10 years as a manager, and retirement has been shattered by the digital revolution. Geography no longer dictates your value, physical products have given way to intellectual property and software, and the most successful professionals now operate in fast-action loops - identifying problems, assembling small teams, testing solutions, and scaling rapidly before moving to the next opportunity. Priestley exposes the reality of the new economy where high performers juggle multiple ventures simultaneously - writing books, running agencies, developing AI products, organizing events - all with lean teams of just five people creating extraordinary value. He addresses the common trap of spreading yourself too thin across too many opportunities, becoming a "seven out of ten" at everything, and shares the strategic approach to cycling between expansion and focus phases. For professionals feeling stuck in outdated career models or overwhelmed by endless opportunities, this conversation provides a roadmap for thriving in our high-velocity, digitally-driven economy where adaptability and strategic focus determine success.

    Alex Hormozi: Invest in Skills Over Stocks for True Wealth

    Order my newest book Make Money Easy! https://lewishowes.com/moneyyou Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1775 "If you get rich quick, you get poor even faster. Because you don't have the skills to wield it." - Alex Hormozi Entrepreneur Alex Hormozi shares a transformative perspective that challenges conventional investment wisdom, revealing why investing in yourself trumps any stock market return. Drawing from his family's experience of losing everything to government seizure and his father's journey from arriving in America with just $1,000 to becoming a successful doctor, Hormozi exposes the critical flaw in get-rich-quick mentalities. His powerful analogy of wishing for a weapon without the skill to wield it illuminates why so many lottery winners and overnight success stories end up broke again. Hormozi's "S&Me 500" philosophy demonstrates how a $1,000 investment in skill development can yield exponentially greater returns than traditional investments, potentially turning modest savings into $30,000 rather than $1,300. His grandfather's wisdom about having "two hands and one brain" becomes a blueprint for building unshakeable wealth that no government, divorce, or economic crash can confiscate. Through raw honesty about money behaviors and the psychology of wealth-building, this conversation reveals the difference between gambling on luck and systematically building lasting financial success through skill mastery and extended time horizons.

    Noah Kagan: The Billion-Dollar Focus Secret

    Order my newest book Make Money Easy! https://lewishowes.com/moneyyou Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1775 "Every day I'm stressed building that business... is it gonna work? Am I gonna have payroll? I don't want that. I'm happy making less money but doing it the way I want." - Noah Kagan Success isn't just about the money—it's about designing a life you actually want to live. Noah Kagan, founder of AppSumo, reveals the counterintuitive truth about what separates millionaires from billionaires and why the most successful entrepreneurs focus obsessively on just one thing. After studying countless business titans from the founder of Ethernet to the creator of Kinko's, Kagan discovered that billion-dollar success stories share two critical elements: unwavering focus on a single opportunity and choosing markets with endless demand and repeat customers. But here's the twist that will challenge everything you think about entrepreneurship—some of the wealthiest founders lived in constant stress for decades, questioning whether true success means sacrificing your peace of mind for profit. Kagan's journey from his anxious twenties to his calm forties offers a roadmap for ambitious professionals who want to build wealth without burning out. Learn why "boring businesses" in billion-dollar markets like lawn care and pool maintenance might be your ticket to freedom, and discover the profound definition of success that has nothing to do with your bank account balance.
