From Bankruptcy to becoming the FAIL Coach

Have Your Learned To Succeed Through Failure? Today We Chat With The FAIL Coach Himself, Miha Matlievski:

One business coach has forged his approach to helping entrepreneurs and business executives by using a monumental personal failure and eventual redemption to help get others where they need to go to find their personal success and fulfillment.

At just 18 years old, Miha Matlievski, a Slovenian high school dropout, dreamed of becoming a successful entrepreneur. And he pursued it with a passion, putting in 12 years of hard work that resulted in four successful businesses and a personal net worth of $15M.

But in December 2009, an unexpected call from his bank, which had decided to foreclose on his real estate investments, brought his world crashing down around him. That one negative event instigated an avalanche of ruin for him and his businesses, resulting in his four, once-successful companies going bankrupt.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

10:00 – What you’re building is a cascading effect of negative results because you can only go so long that way and then you’re going to burn out. You’re going to reach a point where referring to your website, “I was literally ready to throw myself over the balcony”. I mean, that’s a pretty strong statement!

20:00 – The thing was, why all that happened to me, I was that crazy, winging it type of entrepreneur and not laying down any foundations. When I talk about those times, I always reference the Three Little Pigs story, and all my businesses were that first house made out of straws. When the first wind of crisis blew in, bam, it was a domino effect. Because of that, I went through depression, anxiety, darkness, suicide attempts, and so on. Until I had the aha moment and I was able to figure out that I had to take ownership of every mistake that I did in the past that led me to that failure. Then, I could start working on my personal goals and business development.

30:00 – What I see with my clients is often, I see bigger things for them than what they can see. But that’s because I was there where they weren’t yet. So it’s much easier to see and to set big goals, because, for me, eight figures, nine figures, etc, I was there. I know how to do that, I can do it again. That’s the difference.

40:00 – I was actually very stupid with my money, spending it like crazy because I could just keep making more at the time.

50:00 – You are that momentum builder and you must create a system that can then move forward. If it relies on you 24-7, 365 days a year, then that’s not scalable. You can’t create the momentum to create a movement that can go around the world. You can’t, you simply and physically can’t. So I’m not expecting me to be the one who saves the world from failure. I just want to help. More people are talking about failure, yes, but they’re still brushing it off too casually. This subject is very important.

53:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I’m guessing a majority of your audience is entrepreneurs or future entrepreneurs. So I’ll say this, the number one thing that you need as an entrepreneur is a healthy relationship with failure. That’s one thing that you will be faced with a lot and you need to know how to deal with it. The second thing that’s super, super important, is that you must build a foundation, and always go back to the foundation when you want to go to the next step. It’s just like building a house. You start with a foundation, you don’t start with the second floor. Then when you say, oh, now I want to make my house larger, you can always go back and make sure that your foundation(s) are in place for that bigger house. This same point goes for your business. I know it’s boring, I know. It feels like oh, I don’t need this. It’s so, so, so important, especially if you want to have a sustainable, long-term, and profitable business.

027: Success by Leadership at THRIVE with David Byler

Scott Mulvaney — Mon, 28 Nov 2016 17:45:00 +0000

Leadership, Success and your THRIVE Co-host:

Leadership builds success. The best investment in life is you. That’s right, you. It’s the one thing that gets neglected in life the most. It’s not a selfish act. Unhappy with his 9-5 career aka job, David decided to free himself and start working to help assist other millennial’s and entrepreneurial minded people. This episodes co-host is a fellow Thrive: Make Money Matter attendee. David Byler first attended the Thrive event back in 2015 and roomed with me at this year’s 2016 event. He took the plunge after investing in Tai Lopez’s 67 Steps course. After this event, he saw the importance of continuing to be learning and investing in yourself. This investment has led David to create the brand SuccessByLeadership.com.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

[spp-timestamp time=”06:28″] Thrive 2015 was Davids first event ever and it changed his life forever
[spp-timestamp time=”09:09″] The 67 Steps to forming a habit and Opening the doors to knowledge
[spp-timestamp time=”11:04 “] The reason for David going to Thrive was about seeing success in the flesh. Growing up in a small town in West Virginia, money was always seen as a bad thing.
[spp-timestamp time=”13:00″] You need an emotional trigger to help get over the fear of failure to ultimately take action.
[spp-timestamp time=”14:43″] What inspired David to start SuccessByLeadership.com. For David, it started with a lot of unhappiness.
[spp-timestamp time=”16:41″] Before investing in Tai Lopez’s course, David had never made that sort investment before. He always followed the course that people around him followed.
[spp-timestamp time=”19:49″] The Quarter Life Crisis
[spp-timestamp time=”21:29″] David has always liked finance and has been a natural saver. Watching people he managed, mismanage their own money and watching their lives spiral out of control drove him nuts.
[spp-timestamp time=”25:43″] Practices from the book, Profit First
[spp-timestamp time=”28:12″] Being efficient and effective with your money by dividing money into multiple accounts
[spp-timestamp time=”29:23″] Most people don’t control their money, so making more money won’t solve the issue
[spp-timestamp time=”30:40″] If you don’t like what you have, you have got to start thinking about what else can you do. Then you can start taking small steps. It’s not going to happen overnight.
[spp-timestamp time=”34:43″] If you want to build your freedom, make sure you build a successful team behind you.
[spp-timestamp time=”36:08″] David helps businesses with their production needs and helps people with their finances allowing them to build the life of freedom they want.
[spp-timestamp time=”37:48″] The freedom trifecta – Financial Freedom, Location Freedom, and Time Freedom
[spp-timestamp time=”40:31″] You got to get to at least one event every year. You must go invest in yourself.
[spp-timestamp time=”46:43″] It’s not always about entrepreneurship. It is about providing value. Don’t just go to events in your industry
