How the Best Get Better -- with Bedros Keuilian

Who do you learn from when you're already at the top of your field? How do you get the motivation to grow when you're already, frankly, pretty awesome? Maybe there are worse problems to have… Okay, there are definitely worse problems to have. But as entrepreneurs, this is the challenge that we all hope to face at some point. This week we travelled to Chino Hills, California to interview someone who knows a ton about the top tier of personal development: Bedros Keuilian, CEO and founder of the Fit Body Boot Camp empire. Bedros has one of the fastest-growing franchises on the planet, so when he thinks about improving his business and himself, he describes his current state as being like 211º degree water –– he just needs one more degree to make a monumental impact. While there's a lot you can do at 211º, at 212º you have steam. It's the difference between cooking an egg and powering a locomotive. As tempting as it might be to stand on top of that mountain and pat yourself on the back, there's so much to be gained from continuing to improve yourself, even when you're at the top of your field. He maintains the same mindset he had as the fat, broke foreigner he describes from his youth, even though he's now an ultra-fit kajillionaire. Self-development is the highest priority not just for himself, but for his employees (who he describes as working at a "self-development company that happens to be in the fitness industry.") But where do the Bedros Keuilians of the world plug in? Just as his clients plug in to him for advice and growth, he needs to learn and recharge somewhere. Listen this week to learn where to find your built-in mentors, why you want to be a fighter jet, and why Bedros would rather get attacked by a shark right now than go write the next chapter in his book. (And why he's gonna go write the next chapter in his book right now anyway.) Enjoy the show, Mike
