Entrepreneur, motivational speaker, and business consultant Rafael Eliassen has always found different ways to beat the odds. At one point he was a lost and depressed janitor who had no idea what to do in life. One day he finally decided to stop feeling sorry for himself and do something about his situation so he transformed himself and worked day and night in order to build multiple 7-figure businesses from scratch and become a world-known motivational speaker. His speeches have impacted over 30 million people throughout the world. He is also helping other entrepreneurs and their businesses grow and earn more with his consulting business. Here are some pieces of advice and thoughts from Eliassen.
Which people in life inspire you the most? Why?
People who start from nothing and create the life they dream of. Because of the personal transformation and inner growth required to do this is remarkable, and I know first hand how difficult it can be.
Growth like this can only occur when you’re entirely committed, there is so much sacrifice, but it is all worth it.
What do you think makes your work stand out?
My level of passion and dedication, that it is what I love to do more than anything else. There is nowhere I would rather be than helping a client succeed.
Certainly, having logged over 10,000 coaching hours in 5 years, and having worked with over 600 clients, also does help.
