    It's no secret that Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs drives and motivates human behavior. Each stage is the motivating factor behind what you are doing and why you are doing it. When it comes to business, these needs only intensify when it comes to you and your employees. 

     

    Suppose you want to create a successful business where the success is mutually beneficial for everyone involved. In that case, you must start w

    The Purpose Chasers

    According to Abraham Maslow, all humans operate inside a Hierarchy of Needs. The Hierarchy of Needs includes Physiological Needs, Safety, Love and Belonging, Esteem, and Self-Actualization. These needs are what drive and motivate human behavior. When it comes to business, creating a vision for your employees to align themselves with is the key to recruiting and maintaining employees. 

     

    This week, I'm sharing a quick overview of the 5 Stages of the Hierarchy of

    This week, I'm sharing the lessons learned from terminating two individuals who are near and dear to me. Terminating employees who are like friends and family is one of the most challenging decisions I've ever had to make in business. But one of the most valuable takeaways is the importance of asking how YOU can do better. How can you be a better leader and team leader? What areas can you improve on to future-proof the relationships in and out of your company?

    If you're an active listener of the show, then you might remember Episode 100, where I chatted with Nathaniel Bruno, Owner of Community Solar Authority, about my entrepreneurial journey and how he helped me get started. It was a fantastic conversation about the two main lessons I learned in entrepreneurship and the incredible insight I gleaned from Nat's own experiences. Well, Purpose Chasers, I decided to bring him back for an all-new episode.

    If you lead your business with honesty and integrity, you’re setting yourself up for a successful company. While building a scalable company isn’t for the faint of heart, it is doable and it can be done the right way. You just have to nurture your relationships and honor your previous agreements. 

     

    But sometimes other people don’t always hold their end of the bargain. One of the key lessons I share this

    If you’re an entrepreneur, business owner, or industry leader, then you’ve more than likely heard the phrase, “cashflow is king” or “cash is king.” Just because you make millions of dollars a year doesn’t mean you pocket millions of dollars. On paper, it may look like you’ve made tons of money per job, but in practice, you may be losing more money than you even realize. But what if I told you there’s a better strategy? One that can ensure you’re getting

    This week, I’m sharing how my company went from $0 to $1.5 million in solar sold in a five-month span. While many people see this as a wild unicorn, luck of the draw experience, there’s just no such thing. By putting systems and automations in place, doing the work with honesty and integrity, building relationships with our clients, and keeping them in the know at all times, my team and I were able to grow and scale in an authentic way.

Did you know that many of our decisions are operated out of fear? What opportunities we say yes to and others we say no to typically depend on how we allow outside forces to influence our decisions. But whether you recognize those fears or not, you are still the only person that is in control over your life. It is important that we start giving credit where credit is due. You are in control. Don’t let what happens to you decide what you do with the circumstances that you have been given. 

 

This week on Purpose Chasers, as promised I am sharing part two of the power of choice. Specifically, I am talking about the victim’s response to choice and how people make decisions out of fear. I am sharing with you what leads to decision making, or lack thereof, and how we can show up in our own lives. Ultimately, nobody can make the decision for us. Oftentimes we give outside influences too much credit for our decisions. But, remember, you have the power to choose the life that you want to live. Don’t allow outside influences to dictate how you show up for yourself. 

 

Topics Discussed:

  • Recognizing pressure and persuasion as self-limiting beliefs 
  • Why saying yes to everyone is operating out of a scarcity mindset
  • The difference between extending gratitude and taking credit for your actions
  • How God, the Universe, Therapy, and Coaches can only carry you so far
