In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, we have an impressive guest, Christopher Ryan shares insights and wisdom on living the best version of yourself in all aspects of life, accountability hacks, handling fears and inadequacy, how to easily build relationships, the secrets to a mastermind group, and the benefits of GoBundance!
Christopher Ryan is a serial entrepreneur, investor, CEO of GoBundance, Founder and President of Paredigm Enterprises, a consulting firm helping individuals, companies, and nonprofits realize their goals; and the Texas and Puerto Rico Chair for TIGER 21, the premier peer-to-peer learning organization for ultra-high-net-worth individuals.
This incredible man values education, health, sports, and religious upbringing. He first started in the business when he was 17 years old. Just like the whole world, he also faced some form of adversity but did his best to get through, and develop strengths around it. Chris strongly believes that life is all about driving significance and mastering your lives.
Likewise, the measure of contribution to this world is not based on the success that you have but finding your real purpose to make your life worth living for. Chris emphasizes that life is so short, therefore, prioritize health, relationships, family, and help other people achieve their significance in order to be more fulfilled, and happier!
