What if you could crush procrastination forever?What if you could crush procrastination forever? If you’re a business owner, freelancer or somebody who wants to start his own business, you’re probably struggling with lack of focus and procrastination. TCN caught up with Michael Anderson to learn more about his Success Fundamentals workshop, wjhich kicks off in Zagreb on November 8, 2018.
TCN: Tell us about this unique course that you’re teaching here in Zagreb.TCN: Tell us about this unique course that you’re teaching here in Zagreb.
Michael: Certainly. I find that in Croatia there is a lot of talent and drive. There are many people with great ideas, though they can lack two main things to get those accomplished; focus and discipline.
That’s the ability to focus on achieving their goals, and the discipline to do what it takes to achieve that goal.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have great mentors and teachers myself, had a successful corporate career, founded four businesses, and now I teach executives and leaders in some of the largest companies in the world.
I’ve had to both learn these myself, and now I teach others in how to bring them into their lives.
Overcoming procrastination, being strong when others are negative, and doing this each and every day is really what’s crucial success.
And that’s what we give attendees of the class; focus, systems to support this focus, and discipline.
TCN: That’s interesting. Who’s it aimed at?
Michael: There are a few groups that will get the most out of it;
-Freelancers often are great at their profession though need these tools to deliver consistently to their clients, while managing multiple projects and continuing to market and sell themselves.
-Business owners who feel overwhelmed, and find themselves always busy, yet not moving the business ahead strategically.
-People who have a dream – start that business, write a book, become a blogger – yet aren’t moving forward with it
-Employees who have talent, and are looking to have a long-term successful career
-Project managers, administrators and support people as well need these to organize all the critical tasks that they take care of.
TCN: Have you taught in Croatia before? Will your course be different here rather than in the USA or the UK?
Michael: While procrastination and lack of focus isn’t unique to Croatia, some of my Croatian friends joke that locals can be experts at it!
I’ve taught all over the world, and that includes Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia. The great thing is people here can be extremely driven and focused; when they have the right goal in mind, and when they have positive support, which can be lacking.
I’ve heard stories where people share about a business they want to start, and all of their friends and relatives tell them to just get a job. Starting a business is hard enough without the support of your closest allies.
There’s so much potential here, I hope that this class can give some of the people who want to rise up the support and life-long tools to bring success to them and their country. (Which by the way my great-grandfathers and grand-mothers came from…yes I’m at least 50% Croatian…)
TCN: You mention support. There are a lot of classes out there. How will your class be different?
Michael: Yes, this class is 100% focused on the people who take the class putting the systems, focus, and discipline into their life. That’s why it’s once a week for four weeks. When you’re at the class, it’s very interactive, and between classes, we have fun accountability to make sure everyone is developing positive new habits.
What’s more, students will be around other positive-thinking people who also are ready to shift their thinking and their lives. When I run classes like this, the community that is forged from the process is one of the greatest benefits.
TCN: When is it? Where are you putting it on, and with whom?
Michael: It starts Thursday 8th November at 17h – 20h, and runs the next four Thursdays at the same time. I know it’s dinner time, we’ll feed you during class…
I’m doing it with Impact Hub Zagreb, the local branch of the global Impact Hubs, who brings together entrepreneurs and social innovators to do great things.
TCN: That’s great. Where do people get more information?
Michael: Sure, here’s the Facebook event; https://www.facebook.com/events/185888008991579/
And here’s where people buy tickets; https://www.entrio.hr/event/success-fundamentals-overcome-procrastination-maximize-productivity-and-develop-the-discipline-cru-5613
If anyone is ready to take the single best step to them achieving what they want to achieve, this is it.
