I got dinner with an entrepreneur from Kyrgyzstan. (also interviewed her on my podcast!) She founded a law-tech agency that helps companies incorporate in Kyrgyzstan. Right now, sheās based out of Malaysia, studying to improve her English. And traveling around Southeast Asia to grow her business. I couldnāt help but be inspired. During our dinner, I asked: What brought you to Bali? She said: āThe people.ā She told me how lonely she felt. How she couldnāt find people like her back home. How she couldnāt find her people. The Entrepreneurs. Dreamers. Builders. Sheās traveled over 6,884kms to find a community. To be around people where she felt like she could be herself. That would support rather than judge her. A place where your big dreams are normal. Not ātoo much.ā Not āunrealistic.ā That's why I built the Inner-Circle Community. A 12-week community to help you:
If youāve been feeling like youāre doing this alone... Maybe it's time to find your people too. And you wonāt need to travel over 6,000kms+ to do so. Doors are open for two more days. Reply āPEOPLEā and Iāll send through more information. Stay Limitless, Michael "would travel 6,884kms for durian and community" Lim |

He said this: āYour network will determine your success.ā He talked about how his first start-up failed. And he went broke. The one thing that saved him? The people he knew. Not...
My email yesterday struck a chord. I received emails like this: While I love hearing from you guys, these emails break my heart I canāt help but feel terrible. I know exactly what it was like to be in this position. Iām not in my 60s, but Iām familiar with being and feeling stuck. 2 years ago, my first business was failing me. I did well in my first year. But I didnāt build my sales engine. My clients ghosted me. A big proposal fell through. I got hit with a massive tax bill. I couldnāt deny...
I would say sorry, but Iām not sorry at all. In fact, I enjoyed it. And he started it. (So itās really his fault) Matt reached out to work with me last year. He told me he was stuck. He couldnāt crack a monthly income goal. He had been working with a coach who wasnāt getting any results. Even after six months of work together. He still had: No sales system. No offer clarity. No real progress. When we started together, we tore down his biz. Rebuilt his offers. Simplified his message....
