Key Insights

Why do you look up to certain people and companies as role models?

Looking up to industry giants like Salesforce, Shopify, and HubSpot inspires me to reach the next level. Seeing them cross the chasm and operate at a higher tier motivates me to aspire to similar heights. Additionally, individuals like Tony Robbins serve as role models in terms of influence and consistency in their work.

How does Tony Robbins' sincerity impact his influence?

Tony Robbins' sincerity is evident in his consistent behavior both on and off stage. His genuine care and emotional engagement with people create a profound connection that is rare in the industry. This sincerity enhances his influence and makes his message more impactful.

What role does faith play in your leadership and business decisions?

Faith plays a significant role in my leadership by providing a sense of purpose and calling. It helps me persevere through challenges and approach my work with a sense of stewardship. I often pray before major events to seek guidance and ensure my actions align with a higher purpose.

How do you manage the immense pressure of leading a large community and business?

Managing pressure involves recognizing that my role is a calling and not just a job. I reach out to other leaders who carry heavy burdens to gain perspective and support. Additionally, having a strong team to share responsibilities helps alleviate the pressure and makes the load more manageable.

What are some personal sacrifices you've had to make due to your role in ClickFunnels?

One of the sacrifices is the inability to turn off work completely. I miss the early days of brainstorming and the freedom to think creatively without the pressure of a packed schedule. Additionally, I feel the weight of responsibility to be the best dad and husband, which can be challenging given my public role.

What final message would you want to leave for future generations?

I would want people to understand that their work and calling are gifts from a higher source. Recognizing this can provide the courage and faith needed to pursue their goals with greater determination and purpose. It's about understanding that you are called to do something significant and running with it.
