Summary

With it being the beginning of the year, I’ve been thinking about what it means to be coachable. I’ve made a ton of business mistakes in my life, just as anyone has. But because I’ve always had a coachable mindset and been surrounded by mentors, I’ve always walked away from those mistakes with priceless lessons that have guided me forward. This episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience isn’t just about me giving advice to you. This is about the advice that my mentors have given me and the impact it had on my life and business. This is about lessons learned and how they got me where I am today. I’m going to share the most helpful wisdom I’ve ever received about building a brand, running advertising, doing the work, and much more. And if it worked for me, chances are that these lessons will work for you – but only if you’re coachable. Because as you’ll see, a person without a coachable mindset would’ve taken this advice a lot differently.
