Chuck Anderson,
00:00 - Recording Started
Hello, everybody, and, welcome back. This is the creative
collaboration show with Chuck Anderson, and this is the show
where we help business owners and entrepreneurs
with tips and strategies and advice that can help you
to grow your business to whatever
extent you want to grow it. And sometimes that
means a strategy or something that you implement
into your business. Sometimes that means growing and
and and and working on yourself. Oftentimes, it's
both. And so I like to invite guests here who
who align with that thought process, but also,
are engaged in work that can, help
along those lines. And so, you know,
so today's guest for sure, works
with, works with business owners as a coach and a
consultant and can help you grow your business. So today, I
have Bogdan Roju with me today. Welcome to
the show. Thank you so much, Chuck, for having me.
Yeah. And you're probably gonna see me looking to the side because your face is
over there, but my camera is over here, unfortunately.
So we'll do I'll do my best to switch between the
2. No problem. Well, you know, that's, that, you know,
that's the the cool thing about
technology. I have 3 screens as well. And, and
so I was watching myself back
on a webinar that I did. And, of course, the camera's here and the
slides are here, but then I had the chat over here, and then I had
something else over. So the whole time, I'm watching myself.
And, occasionally, I'm looking at the camera, but other times, I'm I'm
doing this. I'm looking at the other other screens as well.
That's just how it is anymore. Like, computers aren't just one screen
anymore. They're they're they're multiple screens. Alright. Well,
this show is not about computers, so we'll we'll go from there, but it's all
good. So listen. I I think
the best place to start is is
is, you know, your story and,
you know, tell everybody a little bit about about
you and the work that you do and and how it came to be
that you're you're doing this work. Sure.
I like to think of myself because, like,
everybody's a coach these days. I I don't see myself as
a coach necessarily. I'm an amplifier of money
and freedom for experts and entrepreneurs. I've
worked with complete beginners to multimillionaires.
For example, one of my biggest clients, gentleman doing a
120,000,000 a year, he was terrified to
do anything to grow his business because he believed that
he would make a mistake and then lose 1,000,000. So I quickly
showed him that it wasn't the case, and in fact, he was actually a
business badass. And that heightened level of
confidence allowed him to take serious steps
towards doubling his business.
The way that this came about was that number 1,
I became obsessed with how people work. I
was horrible when it came to people when I was a kid. I
had like, it was extremely awkward
socially. In 5th grade, I was voted
as being the most disliked kid in class. And you can imagine like,
actually somebody took a poll for that. And,
that was a big, big defining moment
for for me. And couple that with,
you know, Romania post post the revolution.
I live in Romania. Romanian, in 89,
we had communism collapse all all over the
world, including here. So my
parents were transitioning from communism to capitalism. My dad,
especially, he started his own business, but the business had,
like, a very difficult time taking off. It actually took my dad
around 10 to 15 years to have, you
know, an to experience abundance from his
business. And you can imagine the more that that left a
mark as well. So combining, you know, this obsession for
how people work and understanding that and mainly
understanding myself because the reason why that happened was because I had
no confidence. And this
idea, this relationship with money, this
is how kind of, I came to be. But before
being a coach, I actually had another passion. I I started the
first ever personal development through martial arts program, and that's
why my work is called the Warrior Shaman Business
Growth System. You know,
that's interesting because, you know, in in doing
research for this interview, and I went on
to, YouTube and and and searched for you,
actually saw some videos of you talking about
martial arts and and that. And so,
it's interesting because I always think about when I think about martial arts,
I just think about the discipline, and I think about the, you know, the
the repetition and the mastery
that goes into all of that. So so that's
interesting how you've sort of, like, connected the dots and and
and, and how you've used that now in your business.
Can you talk a little bit about that? Like, what are some of the the
principles, or what what did you learn from martial arts that really applies
to, you know, what you're doing and and, with the
work that you do with your clients? Sure. The the
core the core principle that I got from martial art was
martial arts was yin and yang. Because if you're always on the
offensive, you're losing because you're actually being the one
controlled. And if you're always on the defensive, you're still losing.
You need a healthy balance between yin and yang. Actually, everything
everything, everything is yin and yang.
You cannot grow your business without having a period
of chaos. Right? I
see this all the time with myself, with my clients. Whenever they
tap into a new level of confidence of saying, hey, this is what
I want from life. The first thing that happens, the
house gets cleaned up. Right? All of the shit, all
of the negative can can I swear on this? Oh, sure. Yeah. Go ahead. We
don't I don't think we have any kids in our audience.
Perfect. So all the shit that
was buried deep down comes
to the surface for you to deal with. And
it's a natural rhythm of life. Right? We we like to
talk about balance as entrepreneurs. Balance is a.
Balance is knowing when to sit and when to move, right? Because
balance having this this idea of balance of
nothing moving, that means that you're dead.
So everything when it comes to my work has this yin andang
approach. The warrior shaman apparent opposites. They're not.
It's spiral because the warrior feeds the shaman, the shaman feeds
the warrior. The shaman heals limiting beliefs
and turns trauma into treasure. The warrior
allows you to tap into higher levels of confidence So
that you go after bigger projects, bigger clients, charge
what you're worth, and thrive. And
couple that with business strategies, personalized
business strategies. What I find usually is that you pay for business
coaching, buying great strategies that are lead generation
sales, service delivery, but then you're because
your mindset doesn't match your the level of your business strategies, you'd never
really fully use it. You don't believe you deserve success. You don't
believe that you can handle
or learn these new strategies. So you kinda either procrastinate you, put
it to the side, or
you kind of half ass it. Right? The same
thing happens with mindset. You buy some mindset coaching. Right? You get a bit of,
a better handle on your emotions. Maybe you learn a bit about manifesting
more abundance, but then it's like, okay. But how do I actually generate leads in
sales calls? I love to give the people I work with
both. I I don't believe in cookie cutter business strategies. I didn't
I don't believe in cookie cutter mindset approaches. I need to understand exactly
what's going on. See exactly what's kind of
driving you and what's blocking you. And then
together, of course, I give suggestions, but it's like,
you know, if I give you a system, my system,
and it works for you, I failed as a
coach. My definition of
success is I awaken the business owner inside of you
who can create the systems, the tools, the mindset, everything that you
need to elevate.
Interesting. Yeah. Because and that's where you see so so
much of coaching, especially in
business, is, you know, use my strategy, use my
tactic. And, and then and,
of course, we always need to be learning
about how, you know, tactics evolve and how the
technology evolves, and that's just good information and keeping us up
to date. But then how to apply it, real that's where
we apply our own creativity to it and and then but, also, what do we
bring bring to it? Yeah. A 100%.
And what I find is that the how really doesn't matter that much. The
how is easy. You find the how online on YouTube. It's
free. Right? What matters is the who.
Mhmm. Who you're being when you're using these strategies? Are
you being your most confident self? Or are you being the
version of you who's full of fear and doubts? Right? You might
have the best sales script. If you don't believe in yourself,
if you don't believe in what you're selling, doesn't
matter. The how doesn't matter. It's all about the who. Who are
you choosing to be in this moment?
No. That's, that's a really good point because I I tell the people in
my group program all the all the time that, you know, what it
because they ask me, you know, what does it what does it take, you
know, to sell at higher prices or to sell this
higher ticket program or, you know, or it could be some other
question. And the the answer often comes
down to confidence when you can speak about it
with confidence. And the question always is, does
your program help people? And if the
answer isn't yes, you're gonna have a really
big problem selling it. It doesn't matter the price point. It doesn't
matter the features and the benefits. It doesn't matter the bonuses and all of that.
It's does your program help people? Do you truly believe that it
helps people transform or to get a better result?
Yeah. And, you know, like, 2 things come up. The first
is you'd be surprised how many people have
exceptional results and still doubt themselves when it comes to selling more.
I'll give you, I'll give you a concrete example. One of my most recent clients,
This guy who, his
specialty is helping experts make more money
in 5 days than they do in a
year. He runs a done for
you 5 day challenge service, sets everything up for
his clients. One of his clients was making 5
k a month. With the 5 day challenge, he made a
$160,000. Another one of his clients
made $460,000. And
my client was struggling to make any sales. He didn't make he made zero
sales in
the past 3 months. And I'm like, dude, what are
you doing? Why are you not talking about these case studies we're off to bat?
Why isn't it on your, you know, talk about strategy? Why isn't
this the first thing that people see on your your profile? Fine. Right?
You say you help them more make more money in 5 days than the whole
year. So what? Where's the proof? Right? And we worked on his
confidence. Amazing results. No
confidence. Mhmm. 1st week, 6 k.
Next week, 4 k. The the other week, 10 k.
20 k in 2 weeks. Right? Why? Because that was
the missing component, confidence. And, you
know, the second thing that popped up when you were you were sharing about your
clients, and it's interesting, this just came to Like we have this,
this phrase what does it take? What what it what
does it take to get a specific result? Right? But what if replaced we
replace it with what does it give?
Right? What do you need to give? Or rather
who do you need to give to the world to achieve that certain
result? Are you bringing your best self to this table?
And your best self is like there's nothing like there's no perfect version of you
but there's definitely that future super successful version of you that you're
aiming for. Bring that version of you here in the now.
Market like that person would. Sell like that person would.
Lead like that person would. Have the standards
that that person would. And you're giving the
world a whole new energy, and the world is giving that back to
you in many different ways. Mhmm.
In business conversations I hear so often, you know, a lot of
there's a lot of, lot of emphasis on strategic
planning, in goal setting, having your
vision, and all of that. And what I really hear you talking
about, what we've really, you know, honed in on here in this in this
interview is because we have talked not at all about
strategy. We have not talked at all about, you know, vision and all of
that. It's really about, it's really
about, you know, confidence. And like you said, you
know, who do you need to be to to to get that
result? So,
I'd love to hear a little bit about the
conversation that you are having with your,
potential clients. Are they coming to you where they
already realize that there's something going
on internally, or are they still looking externally? And
then, in in other words, how open are
they to looking at that, or are you then having this conversation and then
helping them to see that, wait a minute. It's maybe not this
tactic that you need. It's really more just inside
of you is where we need to work first.
It it that's that's great. That's a good question.
And, you know, to kinda circle a bit back, strategy and vision are
essential. Right? There is no way you can build that level of confidence with how
it's having a vision of where and who you wanna be. There's no way you
can bring that version of you forth. There's no way you
can create it's like
yeah, it's again the yin and yang idea. Now in terms
of the people coming to me, it it depends on the person. I
mean, if we're talking about a shamanic healer,
right, of course, they're gonna be a lot more self aware
of, hey, You know, my my energy is a bit off. I'm not really,
you know, being in my I'm not flowing, let's say, a lot. That's kind of
the language that will be, used. Or I'm not into my
abundance and into scarcity and so on and so forth.
Whereas the majority of, in terms of awareness,
it's okay. I I just need more
clients or I need better clients. I just need a way to get more leads
through the door. The general tendency is
to look at the outside, the external events
happening. And, yeah, that's kind of where I focus
my marketing as well. Right? There is, like, you have to soften the
mind first, the physical mind before you can reach the heart.
So they're coming to you with some degree of openness about having that
conversation, and you're not necessarily having to convince them, well,
you know, that, you know, you're you're you're looking externally,
but we also need to be looking internally. And
It depends. It depends. It's like, I
speak to where the client is. I mean,
if strategy is the most important thing, what I usually like to do
is talk strategy and show them how simple
strategy is, and it's, like, not a big deal. And then
say, hey. Guess what? You know all of this.
So why do you think you're not doing it? Well, you know, because
and then we get to the core. And that's where it really comes
out. Yep. Right? You hear it all the time, you know, in,
you know, procrastination. You know? And and that's another,
you know, word that comes up in in my group coaching program, which
I've been running for, you know, this is, I think, 13
years now that we've been running it, and
people know what to do. You can give them the steps. You can give them
the checklist. You can give them the procedures. I can give 2
people the exact same set of instructions. 1
will take that and run within an Excel, and
the other one appears to still be at the starting line.
And then when you unpack, it's like, you know, I'll get the question, like,
how do I stop procrastinating? And I always you know, I've this is something
that I it's a question I journal about. It's a it's something that
I, look to understand more and more.
And my today's understanding of procrastination is
is really a matter of clarity. And what I find is when
people know what they need to do, but they don't do it, there's
there's there's there's some still something that they're
unclear about. And and maybe
it is like, oh, if I do this new thing, I'll be undoing all these
other good things that I have in place, like like like the
the, you know, the case of your client. But,
you know, I'd love to hear your opinion on on on
procrastination, why people aren't doing what they need to do even though they need
to do it. I think you're you're on point that it's
clarity, but what where
people miss the mark on is which
dimension are we talking about in terms of clarity. And here's what I
mean. One of
my clients, a copywriter, she was making good money. You know, she was making
6 figures, but working like a like a maniac.
But no matter how hard she works, she couldn't go over
12 Canvas. Right? And
she wasn't even a client. We did this, session together.
I had her connect with her father. Her father had passed
away for maybe over a decade
and the thing that she connected with was one of the last
things that her father told her on her deathbed.
Can you guess what that was?
Unheard on on his deathbed. Yeah. I'm I
I nothing comes to mind instantly about that.
He said, don't be greedy. Don't
be greedy.
That can be interpreted a lot of ways. And and and
then, you know, if that and then installs a belief,
you're gonna start acting in accordance
with that. Wow. Yeah. And what does don't be greedy mean?
My client was procrastinating selling to higher local
clients even though she made her clients millions. She was
procrastinating showing up and saying, hey, this
is who I work with. These are my people. And she was just saying that
comfort zone of, hey, you know, at least I know the money is coming in
every month. Right? So the reason why she was procrastinating
was because in the back of her head, she still had that image of if
she became too successful, she would disappoint her father.
We removed that, and then she made 25
cameraman. Wow. Minimum effort Mhmm.
Compared to the hustle and grind she was dealing with, with
before. So, yeah, it's a 100% that's clarity,
but it's not that obvious
where you need clarity in. So in this case,
it there's clarity, but there's also a belief
that if I'm being bold, then I'm also
dishonoring what my father said and that I'm being
greedy. By wanting more, I am being greedy. That's that's what I
hear you saying. And so so that's where belief so it's kind of
like so so clarity, but underneath
all of that, that may be leading to the unclarity
is this this belief that
because I could see the, you know, sort of the tug of war that be
could become you know, happening in in one's
mind. It's like, oh, I know I need to charge more. I know that my
work is worth more, but I also made this promise
not to be greedy. So, therefore, I you know, that that
it's out of alignment, and that's going to lead to unclarity. I'm
unclear about what I believe, and I'm unclear on what I'm even
allowed to charge because it doesn't align with
with, with with what I was told and
now what I believe. Right? And so Yeah. Interesting.
I could unpack that one all day because and, again, this is the the
that pursuit of not only understanding it more
from my own perspective, but then how how
do I improve the, when I'm coaching people,
how to improve the the coaching that
then is delivered to them. And, no, there's no one
size fits all answers. There's always a there's always a layer
underneath it. Right? And it's like, what is that? And in this
client's case, it was don't be greedy. In another client's case,
it could be some other, you know, belief or decision that
they have made that puts them out of alignment when they
want more. Right? Yeah. And, you know,
I I think a lot of us are more afraid of success because it's a
new world. Mhmm. And it's comes with a lot of
uncertainty. Because, like,
you try something, you fail, you can go back to what you know.
Mhmm. Yeah. I just I find
the whole thing fascinating. So I wanna turn
the the conversation a little bit more to the
work that you do because I think for anyone listening in here
who is I mean, our our audience are entrepreneurs,
different you know, various different levels, growing their business. And I think that if
there's one thing that we all have in common is there's always
a there's always a goal. There's always a you
know, I wanna build this thing. I wanna grow this thing. I you
know? And, and and it's not always
money, but the way we often measure ourselves and our
success is, oh, I do this much per I do 6 figures a year
or 7 figures a year or 8 figures a year or 9 figures a year,
whatever it is. And so wherever you're
at in that journey right now, and you
might be finding that maybe you have stayed at the same
level for a certain period of time, unable to
kinda break past that. Or you have a
goal, and for some reason, you have not been able to
realize that goal. So I wanted to ask you a little bit about you know,
for anyone who's listening in who might be thinking about that, you know,
what what what is your advice in terms of some of the next
steps they should take to, you know, maybe look at things
differently and, you know, to take some new steps
to towards getting a a better result.
It's difficult because it's
very personal to each person. I mean,
if just logging into YouTube and following I'm some sometimes it works. It's like
the right information to hit hits you at the right time, and it
knocks you over the head so strongly that you instantly
create a a huge shift. But
it's difficult to understand what's holding you back because it's
you know, my coach is I don't have eyes in the back of my head,
you know, to see what's, what's going on, to see myself from from the
outside. The best thing you could do is if you don't have
people who like,
having someone who can clearly see things for you, we're always so much
better at seeing other people's challenges and and
the solutions for them as long as we can tell them the truth.
Having somebody who can speak the truth to you whether you're just starting
out and
maybe a friend who's honest with you and gets what you're doing with the
business, gets the vision, gets you, gets your goals, Right? And
can really support you and tell you, hey. You know what? I I feel like
this is like you're not showing up really here in this way. Right? Whether
it's be being having more discipline or,
more confidence or, you know, whatever that is.
And if you're a higher level, that's even harder to get on the around you
because you're higher you're surrounded by people who
don't wanna fall from your grace, who look up to you,
and that's even harder. But, yeah, that's that's
kind of it, having that external perspective
with a 100% honesty and they don't give a fuck if
they upset you, that can be very cathartic
and can launch you forwards. And as long as you take it through your own
filter and see how it fits, you try it out. Right? Does this this
is good for me? Do I feel good applying this or do I see the
potential in it or not? Right? But at
least you get to try out something new, like a a
new shirt or something like that and see how it fits.
Yeah. We can see what we can see at the end of the
day. So but that's fine. Right? It's okay. I
I I think a lot of the pain and frustration is
feeling like if we don't figure out ourselves, we somehow
failed. It happened. So that's a really
good point. I think, you know, what you're really speaking to there, and I know
it was a very tough question to answer, but but, really,
that's the benefit of of coaching is that it's you know,
so many people do try to answer this for themselves.
And, you know, what if you just had a conversation
with someone like Bogdan who could help you
to ask different questions, who could see things in a different
way? And, and and everyone's
answer is going to be different. So what is your
answer? What is the thing that,
that you need to become aware of and where changes can be
made that can, lead to, you know, bigger
impact, bigger results in your business. And I'll make sure that all
your, all your contact information is beneath this
video. And then if you're listening to this on podcast, it will be, right there,
in the show notes. And, reach out to him.
And and so now, before we run out of time, I know that
you also have a podcast, and, and so I wanted to ask you,
what what is the best way for people to connect with you and reach out
to you? And, and then tell us a little bit about your podcast as well.
Thank you. Thank you, Chuck. Yeah. And it doesn't necessarily
have to be, you know, a coach. Somebody who can be
honest with you. That's that's the number one thing. And if you don't have somebody
like that, yeah. Sure. You know, find the right coach for you.
But, yeah, best way to get in touch with me would be my Instagram. I'm
playing around with, a lot with Instagram
reels. I'm trying I'm making them funny and,
educational using a bit of a martial arts flair. Like,
the other day, I was like, how many business growth insights can I
share while hitting these dog toys with nunchucks and
so, like, silly stuff like that because of my twisted sense of humor?
But if you wanna learn more about my work, YouTube or the
podcast is called Real Freedom Elevator. I interview 6 to 9
figure earners to talk about what freedom is for them,
how they're strategizing and optimizing their businesses for freedom
because not everyone signed up for, you
know, 12 hour, 14 hour workdays and not seeing your I mean
they're fine as long as you have that quality time
in and you're loving yourself first
because you're the source of the business.
Mhmm. And, yeah, that's what we do in the podcast.
Fantastic. Well, we'll make sure all those links, the Instagram
and the podcast and whatever else you wanna send me, I will put that
right beneath this video and in the podcast show notes. And I
encourage people to go and have a listen. Go check out YouTube. Go check out
the podcast. Reach out. Connect with Bogdan on Instagram.
And, and, you know, obviously, you can if you're if
you're here listening right now, you know that it's time well spent.
And and so, now before we bring this episode
to a close, because this all of this has been amazing, and we've done this
really deep dive into, you know, you know, really, what does
it take to, you know, grow ourselves and grow our business.
And, you know, a big part of that journey over the last 30 years has
been what I've learned from some great thought leaders in terms of
books, some that talk about business strategy,
others that talk about, you know, really what it takes to, you
know, grow ourselves and and be successful. And,
I certainly have my favorite book. So while I have you here, and
I ask this of all my guests, if you had a
book that you would recommend to someone is, you know, a
must read or maybe they're even their next read.
And I know it's challenging to pick only 1, but if you were to pick
one book to recommend, which book would that be?
Could I could I give 2? Or there's Okay. I can I've done that for
other guests, so I I will, I will allow it today. There you
go. The books that that had the highest
impact on my life personally were The Magic of Thinking Big by
David Schwartz. This is actually first
ever personal development book I ever read. And the second
one was The Surrender Experiment by, Michael
Singer. Really? I have not read either
of those. I've I've heard of the first one. The second one, I've not heard.
So tell us a little bit about both of the books just so we can
kinda get the idea. The the the thing that I
remember from the book was actually the first page. It just stood out to me
so much. Like, there's this sales, board or whatever. There
was, like, recapping the sales numbers for the month.
And it's like, Carl, you
know, Carl sold 5 times more than any of you
than the average. Why is that? Is far Carl 5 times smarter
than you? No. Or, you know, whatever. Did he work 5
times hard? No. He just thought 5 times
bigger than you. That's like, you know,
it just blew my mind. And the surrender experiment by
Michael Singer, this guy who just wanted to be a yogi and meditate in the
woods, He made a decision one day that he was just going to
trust life no matter what.
And he would he would talk about these things that would
happen and he'd be like, oh my god. You know, this is the
horrible what are we gonna do? But then he would just center himself
saying, you know what? There's a purpose for this. And then
immediately after, this huge
opportunity opens up for him every
single time. So it was a huge lesson
in the sense that what we love to call negative
is actually opening a tremendously
big door that we previously didn't have access
to as long as we keep this
love and trust and and, yeah,
confidence that it's it's working for us, that life is actually
working for us. Incredibly powerful book.
Wow. Amazing recommendation, and I'll add that to our
library. And, I will put the links to that, beneath the
video and and in the podcast as well. Mhmm. What's your favorite
book, Chuck? My favorite book?
I've got several, and, of course, it is, so
difficult to to, to pick
just 1. But there's one that I have
listened to and relistened to
again and again and again. And it's a book
that was written in the twenties called The Game of Life and
How to Play It by Florence Scoville
Shinn. And it's interesting
because it again, it's not about a certain thing that you
do. It's it's really about who are you
being, what, you know, what what do you believe,
that, you know, if you don't believe something is going to happen,
then it's not going to happen. And and so it's like,
and so to really be mindful
of the things that we say and the
beliefs that we have, and do they align with the result that we
wanna have, in our life? Do I wanna have a
thriving business? You know, is it a business that I
enjoy and love that's growing? Am I in
a relationship that is loving and thriving?
And, you know, there are just so many different scenarios
in that business and then, or in that book. And then
also stories of people who, you know, the
throwaway comments like, oh, you're a you're a pain in my
ass or or whatever. And and then all of a sudden, that person has
a medical condition, in that part of their body.
And, and so, you know, we have to be,
careful of the things that we say. There was a
story in there about a person saying, yeah. If I
if I if I keep listening to people like you, then, I'm
gonna end up living in a box. And, and
so, within a few years, that person had
a financial, upset. They lost their home,
ended up being homeless and living in a box. And, you know,
so it's you know, we have to be very mindful of the things that we
repeat, the things that we say, the things that we
believe, and are in the in true alignment. And we
might be joking and we might be sarcastic, but our subconscious mind
does not know that. Right. Mhmm. So that's I'll
I'll list that book in the in the show notes as well. It's a it's
a great book. It's a very easy read. In fact, you can find the
audiobook for free on YouTube. That's, it
it's a it's a it's a good one. Game of life and
how to play it. Yeah. The game of life and how to play it.
And so who knew that somebody in the twenties was so wise?
So It's it's So, anyways,
Bogdan, thank you so much for the time, in this interview.
This has been amazing. And so it's,
you know, I I think we could spend hours really unpacking, you
know, so many of these things. But at a high level, I think it's it
gives business owners a a place to look and
also a place to connect to, you know, to to have these
conversations and and to really look at things differently.
And so if we were to, end this episode with just final
words of wisdom or piece of advice that you wanna leave people with, what
would you leave them with here today?
You're stronger than you know.
So true. You're stronger than you know. Great words
to end this episode by. So, Bogdan, thank you so much for
being my guest on this show, for,
our audience who's still listening in and getting value from everything
that you, learned here today, and I want this to be
time well spent for you. I would like you to take one thing
that you identified or that you thought about or stood out to
you, in this episode, and I want you to identify
an action step that you can take today towards
that. Maybe it's reaching out to Bogdan. Maybe it's reading one of these books.
Maybe it's some other idea or maybe something that you've been putting off or like,
you know what? I was gonna do this bold thing, and I have not been
doing it. I'm gonna go and take a step towards that today. Go and do
that. And, you know, despite the challenges,
despite the obstacles, believe that you can do this.
Keep moving forward. This has been the Creative Collaboration Show.
I'm Chuck Anderson, and we'll see you on the next one. Thank you, everybody.
