As an entrepreneur, having a vision board and writing down goals is a REALLY good practice to have, but without taking action, the reality is that whatever visions and goals you have are simply not going to be reached.
Taking massive action is what serial entrepreneur, Tom Smyth, is all about, which is why he was able to catch the attention of influencer Grant Cardone and also survive his business almost being decimated during the pandemic.
In this podcast interview, Tom and I talk about his accountability board, moving his business forward by taking massive action to reach his goals that led him to Grant Cardone and his team, and how he has no time for those who waste time by saying no so that he can continue to grow his business by earning the trust of those who work for him, one of the pillars of what intuitive branding is all about.
