Reaching Soloist Nirvana: Exploring The Five Mindsets for Success

Does soloist nirvana exist? Why yes it does…

Which is why Jonathan and I dig into the five mindsets that soloists can master to build their dream business:

The value of having an externally focused mission—and why it may take some time and exploration to find yours.

Thinking like an investor—how to make bets with high upside potential while minimizing your risk.

The role of experimentation in building your business—even when it feels risky or vulnerable.

Why you want to discover your genius zone—and become brave enough to align every aspect of your business around it.

Overcoming guilt to hire the home support you need to work at your best.

“I feel like I’m totally unemployable at this point.”—JS

“People who are at the very pinnacle of this soloist life, they look at every decision as…is this going to bring me closer to where I want to be?”—RM

“Look, it’s a bet—you’re making a bet. And if you’re not a gambler…you want to de-risk the decision as much as possible.”—JS
