How to win big, lose it all and rebuild smarter.

We're thrilled to share some incredible insights from our latest episode of the ScaleX Insider Podcast, where host Brendan McGurgan had the pleasure of meeting up with and chatting to Eric Partaker , a true expert in peak performance and purposeful scaling. This episode is packed with wisdom that can transform both your personal and professional life. Here’s a sneak peek of what we covered:

3 Timeless Takeaways:

1. If you can go through life and not need things to feel smooth and easy, with a high threshold for pain, it makes life a lot better. I don't need things to feel great all the time or perfect and I know having been through so much that I'll get through it.
2. I got this from Steven Pressfield which is a professional vs amateur mindset. An amateur believes that feeling generates action but a professional believes that action generates feeling. The problem with an amateur mindset is that you wait around to feel something before moving to do anything but if you have a professional mindset where you take action, the feeling tends to follow it.
3. Just be intentional. In the same reason you come up with your whys for companies and organisations, why wouldn't you do the same for yourself. If you can come up with a brand for a business, why not brand yourself? Do it with intentionality and ask yourself "what does great look like for me?"

2 Inspirational Quotes:

1. "At 6:30 pm, an alarm goes off on my phone labelled "World's Best Husband and Father" to prompt the question, "How would the world's best husband and father walk through that door right now?
2. "I lost nearly my entire life savings that I had put into the restaurant chain. We’ve since rebuilt to a higher point and level of wealth that exceeds anything we had before, living the phoenix out of the ashes story.'

1 Reflection Question:

A core topic throughout the conversation is why we should be "Anti-Fragile" rather than resilient with rather than being able to take hits, how do you take hits and grow from it. How do you currently handle setbacks or challenges in your business and do they make you stronger or hold you back?

Eric’s journey and insights are not just inspiring but actionable. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a professional, or someone seeking personal growth, this episode offers a roadmap to achieving your best self.
