Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 620

Did you know that working less and achieving more was possible?

Dan Martell | Buy Back Your Time: Get Unstuck, Reclaim Your Freedom + Build Your EmpireDan Martell, Business Coach and Founder of the SaaS Academy, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 620, to introduce the concept of buying back your time, why he owes his success to the struggles he went through when he was younger, and how you can turn your pain into strength.

“You'll never get a penny more than you think you deserve. Your self-worth is a by-product of your identity. If you don't think you're worth it, you won't go on the journey to develop. If you don't think you inherently have more to give, you won't decide to work on the skills that are going to make you more valuable to the marketplace.”Dan Martell

Power Quotes From The Show

Hire People to Buy Back Your Time

“Most people make the mistake of hiring people for capacity. Hire people to buy back your time. Fill your time with things that evolve you. And through that, your business will grow.”Dan Martell

Self-Sabotage

“Self-sabotage comes from unresolved belief about achievement from the childhood. It is a judgment around the result. All self-sabotage is a subconscious fear around achieving what you want.”Dan Martell

Heal Your Inner Child

“The more you're willing to go into the inner child and do the work, the further you can go. The lowest you've gone is the highest you can go. That's why a lot of people that have gone through the most, actually have the most to give – if they're willing to explore that.”Dan Martell
