Goals DO Come True with Doug Bennett

S2E6: Creating a Niche with Donna Grote McGrath

Doug interviews Chris Dillon, the automation expert who shares his secrets to success. Chris reveals how setting clear goals and implementing clever automation strategies can transform your business and personal life. Discover the power of creating "Mickey Boat moments" for your loved ones and learn how to achieve your dreams while enjoying the journey.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Automation removes regular tasks and sets clear expectations with prospects, nurturing them through the sales process without removing the human touch.
Setting specific, measurable goals with a deadline helps break down the steps needed to achieve them and removes the pressure of daily targets.
AI will fundamentally change many aspects of work, but it's an opportunity to utilise it to make life easier rather than a threat to jobs.
Creating meaningful experiences and memories for loved ones, or "Mickey Boat moments," is a powerful motivator for achieving business success.
Passion for what you do is essential for overcoming the challenges of running a business and staying motivated.
Understanding that prospects have lives outside of your business and making it easy for them to engage with you is crucial for converting leads.
Small, consistent improvements (the "1% task") can lead to significant changes over time, so focus on long-term progress rather than short-term gains.
Don't bring people into your life who don't align with your core values, even if they offer financial benefits.



BEST MOMENTS

"I class [automation] as two different things. One is the removal of regular tasks... and secondly, it's the act of using good automation to set really clear expectations with prospects and not removing the human from the process." 

"My fundamental purpose is bringing those moments, more moments to myself, more moments to my loved ones, and more moments to the good people that I surround myself with. That's what drives me." 

"People massively underestimate what they can do in five years and massively overestimate what they can do in one." 

"If you're setting a goal for the sake of setting a goal... if you don't have a passion for what is going to get you to that goal, then you'll never get there because there's so much about running a business that isn't easy." 

"Too many business owners think, right, they're not getting back to me. They're not picking up the phone. They must not be interested. It's like, no, they just have a life. And they don't care about your phone call more than their life."

S4E10: The Art of Automation with Marketing Automation Expert Chris Dillon

In this episode, Doug Bennett interviews real estate mogul Jason Yarusi, who shares his inspiring journey from directionless bartender to successful apartment complex investor. Jason reveals the life-changing event that sparked his transformation and the powerful goal-setting strategies he used to build a real estate portfolio of over 3,000 units.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Clarity and self-awareness are crucial for setting meaningful goals that align with your true desires
Embracing failure as a learning opportunity is essential for personal growth and achieving success
Establishing a morning routine that includes meditation and exercise can lead to improved focus and productivity
Breaking negative habits and replacing them with positive ones is key to creating lasting change
Surrounding yourself with positivity and abundance is necessary to overcome the inevitable negativity in life
Investing in large apartment communities can provide greater opportunities for success and economies of scale
Involving family and friends as passive investors can help fund real estate ventures while diversifying their portfolios
Defining your goals and working backwards to identify the first step is crucial for taking action and building momentum



BEST MOMENTS

"I started out having no goals, right? And so I guess the goal of having no goals was my first journey, right?" 

"Big doesn't always mean riskier. It means that there's more opportunity for an investment to be successful"

"It's important to have a goal, but it's also important to understand when the goal needs to change to get you better on the path to where you want to be." 

"We have to make sure we, we oversupply on abundance and positivity because that little bit, that little nugget of negativity. It causes havoc, it disrupts your day in a massive action." 

"You are putting yourself in bad places, bad spots, having bad decisions, and you're getting bad results. Now you want to go back and do that same thing, and now you can't be angry if you're going to get bad results."

S4E09: Mastering the Mindset of Success with Real Estate Investor Jason Yarusi

Host Doug interviews Dr. Donese Worden, a passionate entrepreneur and health expert. They dive into the importance of prioritising health for entrepreneurs, discussing the "7 Pillars" of health that everyone should monitor. With a fun and informative conversation spanning from sleep to spirituality to bowel movements, this episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to optimise their well-being and achieve their goals.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Entrepreneurs often neglect their health, but it's their most important asset for success
The "7 Pillars" of health are: sleep, body, bowel movements, energy, mental state, relationships, and spirituality
Monitoring bowel movements can provide valuable insights into overall health and potential issues
Food sensitivities, not just allergies, can significantly impact health and should be tested
Setting goals in all areas of life, not just business, is crucial for well-being and success
The body has an amazing capacity to heal itself when given the right conditions
Entrepreneurs have the potential to solve the world's broken systems through innovative thinking
Focusing on one area of health at a time can prevent overwhelm and lead to steady improvements



BEST MOMENTS

"Number one asset is actually you. Without your health, you can't do any of it." 

"Most of the time it's within your reach. It's your diet, your lifestyle, your, you know, you're not, not exercising." 

"The goal is learning to connect to something greater than yourself, feeling it every day." 

"Entrepreneurs, we're the ones that are going to save this planet, save our systems, save our economies, save our, uh, our politics." 

"The medical system is broken. The political system is broken. The environment is broken. Everything right now is pretty much broken systems, but we can fix them."
