How to Deal with Adversity with Ray Hilbert
As entrepreneurs, it’s a pretty regular part of our journey to have to deal with adversity. The problem is that sometimes, the challenges we face can leave us feeling totally overwhelmed, confused, and alone.
If we are to be successful when dark times like this appear, we need to quickly move past them – but how do we do it?
In this episode of the Bright Ideas podcast, I’m joined by Ray Hilbert, co-author of the best selling business book, “The Janitor”. I read Ray’s book a few years ago and absolutely loved it, so when I had a chance to have Ray on the show, I couldn’t pass it up.
During the conversation that I had with Ray, you are going to hear us talk about:
- how he nearly lost all his money and his marriage when things in one of his companies went really bad
- how the period of adversity led him to make some pretty big realizations and what he did as a result
- the new organization that he created and how this organization is helping over 700 other business owners to succeed
- the six principles in his book
- and so much more….
If you are experiencing a challenging time in your business or your life then Ray’s book, and this interview, are well worth checking out.
