Are you living your dream life, or are you living someone else’s dream?
Many people make big life decisions based on what other people want, which can lead to an unfulfilled life.
How long will you wait before you grab the reins and become the leader you were destined to be?
Mike grew up thinking that he would follow in his father's footsteps by becoming a scientist, so he did.
He got three science degrees and began his career as a water chemist.
Then everything changed. Three days after 9/11, Mike signed up for the military.
He went on to serve for 8 years, with 1 year on active duty in Iraq.
As harrowing as that sounds, Mike came out alive, on top, and used the skills and life lessons he’d learned to write 5 books, build and sell 4 companies, and work with over 400 others.
Today, Mike is a serial entrepreneur, scientist, speaker, trainer, Army veteran, father, and author of 5 books.
On this episode of the #IAmMovement podcast, Mike and I discuss why he decided to leave his job and join the military, how he overcame the labels he was given in order to follow his dreams, and how he went from being a scientist to being an entrepreneur.
