In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of creating a nest egg so you can retire. In discussing this, Kelly notes that she was a saver from a young age. Literally putting aside 20% a year. She was taught this by her dad who made her read the classic book Richest Man in Babylon. It truly is a fabulous book that really explains the concept of saving and compounding interest. John points out that he wasn’t that enlightened when he was younger. He didn’t really save in his 30s and 40s because he thought he would hit it big at some point in his entrepreneurial career. Fortunately he did. But it wasn’t a good strategy not to be embracing savings from a young age.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept that lots of people feel. I thought I’d be further along by now. Both Kelly and John have experienced this. Kelly experienced it when she was about 35 and finally making the leap to entrepreneurship. She always envisioned that she would be an entrepreneur from a very young age. But at 35 she’d never made the leap. John experienced this when he was both 40 and 50. One of the things to do to overcome this is you must establish a personal mission statement.

That’s really the starting point for accelerating your success in life.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about the most significant things they’ve learned this year. For Kelly, it was reaffirming her resilience. For John, it was learning the disc profile. Understanding that he is a D. He’s an action taker and does things fast and is focused on tasks. Whereas John’s precious wife Ginger is a C. She does things slow and is a perfectionist. Also focused on tasks.
