E509: Life Update – Mike Jackness’ Plans for the Next Year

Today, Dave and I are diving into some events this year that have led to me ultimately choosing to let go of all my brands.

We discussed a little bit on the last podcast episode, but Dave and I also discuss the rest of my plans for the future and moving towards embodying The One Thing. 

Here’s a few specific questions that Dave tossed out: 

  • Were your other businesses being negatively impacted while you were a CEO for this previous project?

  • What’s the maximum amount of businesses should a person have while giving a reasonable amount of attention to? 

  • What’s the next business for Mike?
