It wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows, though. Pedro wanted to achieve wealth faster and soon got into a situation where he owed a lot of money to his friends and family.

5 Lessons I learned from my Life-threatening Illness (and 9 Day Hospital Stay)

 

I just had my follow up appointment with my Doctor after spending almost 9 full days in the hospital...

He told me, "Shane, you were 2-3 days from your organs failing... or worse.  Thank God you went to the ER when you did. This kills people. It could have killed you."

Here's what happened...

I came home a few weeks ago from a speaking event in Florida.

Over the next few days, I felt super tired all the time. 

You know the feeling, right?

Where you just can't "wake up" all day, or find much motivation to do anything?

103... That's when I got a little scared.

My brother sent me a text to check on me and I showed him the thermometer...

Today’s guest on the Shane Sams Show is Greg Hickman of AltAgency! For years, Greg was in the mobile and text message marketing space, but then he transitioned into building funnels and automation for entrepreneurs.

Shane Sams and Greg Hickman go way back. In this episode, they dig into Greg’s journey into entrepreneurship and how he was one of the first people that Shane and Jocelyn paid to help with their online business!

They talk about how focusing one doing one thing for a specific group of people helps to move the needle faster than being a generalist. Specialization is what gets you paying clients and customers to move your business forward. Just because you’re doing a lot of things in your business, that doesn’t mean that you’re making progress. It’s better to be the glacier than the prairie fire!
