5 Key Takeaways from The Interview

1. Have the right forms of motivation

Money & material possessions are some of the lowest forms of motivation. They will wean with time because you are chasing an emotion that fades way.

The highest form of motivation is fulfilling a purpose. Find your purpose.

2. Build relationships by serving first and asking later

Your network is your net worth. Hack success by surrounding yourself by people who have “done it” and build mutually beneficial relationships with these individuals.

Utilize their guidance and advice; appreciate their time and consideration.

3. Be strategic in your pursuits for interviews– find the gatekeeper!

Cut through the middlemen, pitch your value to people at the top and don’t hesitate to pick up the phone

4. Developing social media is about building your brand – Be consistent!

Develop one channel at a time. Know who your audience is.

Provide value and trigger emotion. Be goal oriented.

5. Speed of implementation

With everything you do, approach it with urgency.

Time is one of the things you NEVER get back so be mindful of it.
