Story
Dan Sullivan, the world's leading coach for highly successful entrepreneurs, wants you to know that achieving 10X growth is exponentially easier than striving for 2X growth. Most find this idea confusing at first because simply imagining 10X growth causes them to think they need to do 10X more work to achieve it. However, being a 10X entrepreneur is nothing like what most people think.

When Elon Musk was a kid in South Africa, he was regularly beaten by bullies. One day a group pushed him down some concrete steps and kicked him until his face was a swollen ball of flesh. He was in the hospital for a week. But the physical scars were minor compared to the emotional ones inflicted by his father, an engineer, rogue, and charismatic fantasist.

Have you ever wondered why some people are super-achievers and seem to go from success to success while others never seem to get out of the starting blocks? In my 40 years of coaching high-achieving entrepreneurs, I’ve noticed that they all go through a process to help them break through to the next level of success. I call this process "The 4 C’s Formula". The 4 C’s Formula is a universal process that can be used by anyone who wants to achieve greater success in any part of their life.

The world would be a better place...
Jim has created a process that could make the world a better place if every person used his process with the most important people in their life. As a working mother of 5 young children quality one on one time is something that doesn’t come often. I absolutely LOVE the large family dynamic, but find that I wish I had more time to spend with each child individually. This is the perfect solution to my problem. I cannot wait to schedule my first set of board meetings.
