EP334: Michael Alliman - Part 1: How To Find Your Rhythm Of Success

“I’m not the expert in real estate, that's why I hire
you. It doesn’t make any sense for me to learn it just to buy one
house, as it doesn’t make any sense for you to learn accounting
just to get your own numbers in order.”
-Michael Alliman
 
Creating, owning, and running our own business is really
challenging. So many things need our attention that it can often
feel overwhelming, like we can’t get our heads above the water.
The desire becomes to keep throwing ourselves at problems, rather
than take a deep breath, dive beneath the surface, and find a
place of calm and wider perspective to help us resolve
them.
 
In this first part of a two-part interview, Michael Alliman,
owner of Alliman Business Group and Reconcile bookkeeping, talks
about overcoming the things you think are holding you back to
find your own rhythm of success.
 
Michael speaks inspirationally about the way he has taken his
ADHD diagnosis and turned it into a hyper-focused superpower that
enables him to dial into detail in a way that has become a great
selling point to clients. He also speaks about the need to stop
setting unrealistic goals and punishing ourselves when we can’t
meet them.
 
If you are facing difficulties in your life or business and are
struggling to change your mindset from one of fearing your
complexity to one that embraces it, this is the episode for
you!
 
During this interview, you'll learn...



The value of embracing what your differences bring to
the world


How to shift your mindset away from fear & toward
success


The importance of getting focused on what it is you do
well
