That's the idea is, "Can you listen to other people? Can you make room in the relationship?" because you might be the greatest coder, but if you can't do those other things, you're not of great value.”Check out his book: “Don’t Take Yes for an Answer: Using Authority, Warmth, and Energy to Get Exceptional Results.”Feeling Stuck? 40+ Ways to Turn Your Ideas Into a Career – Jeff Madoff with Dave Asprey – #744“Every entrepreneur that starts a business is creating something out of nothing, that’s creativity,” says Jeff Madoff. “I define creativity as the compelling need to bring about change.”Jeff began his career as a fashion designer and was chosen one of the top 10 designers in the U.S. He then switched careers to be a director, photographer and writer.

We also get into how to tell the story of yourself and your company, and how can you get people excited about it by using both familiarity and evolution in your narrative.Check out his book: “Creative Careers: Making a Living with Your Ideas,”Want to Make Millions? Get a Mentor – Kevin Harrington with Dave Asprey – #743“One of the challenges entrepreneurs have is they’re afraid to do it,” says Kevin Harrington. “They don’t know what to say or where to go.

We talk about how you can find a mentor and how it can accelerate your career. It can help you fill in the gaps of the knowledge and skill sets you don’t have, all from a person who is thrilled to share knowledge.
