051: Andy Puddicombe – Being Prepared For Challenges

Six Figure Side Gig w/ Dr. Mark Costes - Build a six figure part time business BEFORE you quit your day job

Welcome to another episode of The Six Figure Side Gig Podcast!

In today’s episode I describe how my transition from a full time dentist to a full time entrepreneur and part time dentist are a result of great business systems. Because I have been able to incorporate those same business systems to not only the dental practice side of my business but also my other business endeavors, a recent shake up in how my time and focus is structured has been much easier. My dedication to my morning ritual that includes guided meditation has allowed me to maintain the energy, patience and balance I need for this demanding time. Today I am sharing a great Ted Talks with you from Andy Puddicombe on the topic of meditation. Andy has a fantastic app I utilize everyday as part of my morning ritual called Headspace. If you have tried meditation and have been challenged by what you may think the principles are, you might be very surprised to hear what Andy shares in this clip.

All of that and more on today’s episode of The Six Figure Side Gig.
