EP42: Brandon Carter - Inside the Mind of a 2-Comma Club CEO
Manage episode 224670494 series 2131668
Thanks for joining another episode of Dropset Gorgeous Radio! We’re kicking off 2019 with my friend and special guest Brandon Carter. To put it lightly, Brandon’s resume is STACKED! He is an Instagram influencer, business fitness coach, Keto transformation expert, former model and he owns multiple businesses. His knowledge of the fitness industry is as impressive as his many accomplishments, and I’m excited for him to share this valuable information with all of you!
- Brandon’s reason for business coaching
- How Brandon is able to work with a wide variety of clients
- The drawbacks of starting multiple businesses
- The qualities and characteristics to look for in a team
- Brandon’s journey of earning money illegally to earning money legally
- The importance of keeping a calendar and allocating your time appropriately
- The value of actually being present in the present moment
Although Brandon Carter enjoys success now, his journey to the top was far from smooth. Hailing from a rough neighborhood of Chicago’s south side, he was sent to military school after getting in trouble as a young teen. He found refuge in training and returned to Chicago expecting more trouble but instead was able to share his knowledge with others.
Besides personal training, Brandon had a talent for the drums, keyboard, and making music. He had a short-lived stint as a recording artist and music producer as part of the Sony label, but was dropped after a merger with BMG. Dejected and unsure of what to do next, Brandon turned to selling drugs. Eventually, he was scouted by a modeling agency in New York but stayed mixed up with drugs. It was not until losing friends to murder and prison and even losing his own father to suicide that Brandon decided to walk away from drug dealing. He now makes an honest living helping others make sustainable changes to either their health or business.
Powerful Quotes to Remember:
- It’s hard to take someone who’s already good to great, but anyone who does the work is going to get results they want.
- I’ve made every mistake. I’m able to show both my successes and my losses to my students.
- The man who chases two rabbits doesn’t get either one.
- 1400 people die a day from obesity-related health issues. We have the opportunity to help change that.
- Learn from someone who has already been through it. Get advice from them and listen!
- Sometimes you have to be humble enough to go to the back and let others take charge.
- Every week has 168 hours. 56 hours for sleep and 56 hours for work. What are you doing with the other 56 hours?
- Nobody gets the best of you when your attention is divided. Be present in the moment.
