32. Leading With Vision And An Infinite Mindset

It's a part of life we've all seen. The rise and fall of businesses like GM, Circuit City, and Redbox. Companies that should have had no problem stepping into a new century and yet somehow fell flat. So what caused them to fail while others like Apple, Ford, and Netflix skyrocketed? We'll give you a hint; it had nothing to do with their products and everything to do with their vision. Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential show! In today's episode, we take a deep dive into Simon Sinek's "The Infinite Game." This book is packed with information about how you can change your mindset from short-term strategies to making a lasting impact not only in your life but the lives of those you lead as well. From taking care of your employees to changing the world, you'll learn the power an infinite mindset has when it comes to your legacy.  Listen in as we discuss the importance of focusing on what matters and how finding your why is pivotal in creating the life you want. You'll learn practical tips for leading with courage, creating a just cause people will fight for, and building a team that trusts you. We talk about the five keys to an infinite mindset and how these principles helped businesses like Costco, Apple, and Amazon grow into industry juggernauts. You’ll even get a new perspective on your competitors and how they actually help you stay in business longer!
