Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: Get Lucky With Mister Lucky with Mark Lachance

[1:17] – Mark shares something that he believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.

Meditation is a secret weapon. People don’t believe it’s true. They don’t want to take the initiative or the time to meditate.

[2:44] – From 5 to 250 employees in 2 years — Mark shares how to emulate the blitz scaling technique.

It takes the willingness to hire the right people, fire the wrong people, and continually add to it. Roll your profits back in, and back in, and back in.

[4:24] – One of the biggest mistakes that people make when they’re going through rapid growth.

The entrepreneur’s dilemma, is when a founder / entrepreneur believes they have to be the smartest in the room (or in the company).
The way to avoid entrepreneur dilemma is to drop your ego and swallow your pride. Hire people that are a lot smarter than you to do the jobs you’re not good at.

[8:08] – The importance of the use of language in leadership.

Using empowering language is huge. Pointing out people’s positive attributes versus ripping them down and pointing out their negative attitudes goes a lot further.

[9:40] – Some examples of using positive language

He had an editor he thought was a phenomenal writer. When he told him this, his body language perked up, he became wide-eyed, and he was really happy.
Empowering language will get people to rally around you and work harder for you versus trying to get out of anything to do with you.

Put people in a position where they will succeed.
