This week's Misfit Entrepreneur is Eliot Marshall. Eliot is a former Brazilian Jujitsu title holder and UFC fighter turned entrepreneur. After retiring from UFC in 2011, he co-founded the Easton Training Center, a globally renowned martial arts school specializing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai kickboxing. Easton has expanded to 7 locations across Colorado. It currently employs over 150 employees and does over $6 million a year in revenue. Additionally, Eliot is also the host of the Gospel of Fire Podcast, sought after public speaker, and best-selling author of The Gospel of Fire: Strategies for Facing Your Fears, Confronting Your Demons, and Finding Your Purpose. And it's these things in addition to the lessons learned in building his business that I want to dig into with him today. www.EliotMarshall.com Eliot says that he was very lucky. It started with being born to 2 amazing parents in the USA. From there, it was a lot of failure. He first wanted to be a pro- basketball player and he failed. The he wanted to be the Brazilian Jujitsu world champion and failed. He then wanted to be an MMA champion and failed there. But, he has succeeded at staying in the game and using his failures to get himself to success. Talk to us about why you think you are so lucky? He walked into a mall in 1998 and met a man starting a new Brazilian Jujitsu school and started training with him. He got hurt and quit after a month and this led to his meeting his first girlfriend. A year later he came back and wanted to train with no money to pay offering to clean and help around the gym and the guy just so happened to need his first help and hired him. He lost his last fight in MMA and because he had downtime as he wasn't a winner and on to the next step, he has down time and found his first building for Easton training and got it. That kicked off the business. Other things have happened, but the story of Eliot is that every time something seemed to go wrong, it was the next step needed in his path to get where he has come. You have a chapter in your book called “Why the F$%k vs. What the F$%K,” explain what that means… A lot of people wake up and ask,, “What am going to do today?” That is the wrong question. The right question is “Why am going to what I am going to do today?” Once you are clear on why you are doing things. Why your day will look a certain way. Why your life will be a certain way. Then you can really design the life you want to live. Your why will enable you to have meaning and purpose. Everything starts with why. Once you know your why, you get can get through just about any how. How does someone find their power? It starts with passion. Your power exists in your passion. Putting all his energy into his passion for martial arts, Eliot not only created a massively successful business, but also found his power and that is teaching people that they can do anything if they put their mind to it. They can accomplish. But, he had to convince himself that he could accomplish first, and he did. Find your power and go share it with the world. You went through some mental health challenges. What did you learn to overcome them and how did you do it? He grew up in a bi-racial family and there was a lot challenge. His mom was Jewish, and dad was black. His house was vandalized often and even had swastikas painted on it. It was a rough childhood around him. His family was great. All he had was karate because it was based on results. But he grew up with a feeling that he was not safe. As he grew up and started to win in martial arts he started to equate people liking them with being able to beat them up. He felt a lot of pressure to perform and always win. It was 100% self-imposed. He wrapped his whole identity up into fighting and not being safe. When did you have your breakthrough and choose to change? Eliot had to break down first. He literally had a mental breakdown. It happened over a month having panicking attacks, not being able to sleep, having friends talk him off a ledge. At one point, he couldn't sleep for 2 nights and his wife said to him, “Why don't you do your day as if you had a good night's sleep. Just pretend.” At the 22 min mark, Eliot tells the story of what happened next. It's best to listen. He learned to focus on now and not worry about the past or the future. He learned to put little routines in place that made him better. Talk to us about the habits you have developed that help you succeed. Eliot meditates every day. You can find guided meditation on YouTube for free. Eliot uses mala beads as a trigger to help calm himself in time of stress. Eliot also has a gratitude practice that he does after meditation. He then goes through his pillars of who he is every day. He is and always will be a husband and father. He is a teacher. He is also a student. He is a fighter. He is a survivor. He reminds himself of this every day. “There is only 1 thing all of us have never failed at. And that is making it through your very worst day.” Talk to us about breaking through your mental limits…. Having a teacher or coach to help you is critical to help with breakthroughs. At least to accelerate them to happen faster. Eliot relates a story of one of his teachers and climbing sand dunes at 10,000 feet and carrying another up it. He had another time with a coach climbing a mountain and carrying a partner up the side of the mountain. The challenges were to get the guys to accept their death because it is possible in the cage in MMA. It was in these times of great risk that he learned he could do more. He learned that the biggest competition is with himself and it is being better tomorrow than you are today. Lessons learned from competing in MMA that have helped you in life and business? You have to walk into the arena of your life. You are going to get knocked down and going to lose. Fighters no this and accept it as part of the path forward. No matter what happens, you must get back up and walk into the arena of your life. ​ You built a very large multi-7 figure business that is based in a close contact sport. How did you make it through the pandemic and what principles have you use to build it? The business is better because of the pandemic. It made them figure out how to really make it happen and not only succeed but thrive. They had to close their schools. They brought together their team and started doing trying and failing until they got it right. Their systems and communication got better. Eliot and his partners took pay cuts to ensure everyone made the same or better and could stay in employed. “You can be a victim or you can be a victor. Things either happen to you or happen for you.” They established clear core values that everyone knew. They had a clear hierarchy and communication structure for getting things done. They had a clear vision for what they would do and how they would execute.   Best Quote: You can be a victim or you can be a victor. Things either happen to you or happen for you.   Eliot's Misfit 3: Get a morning routine that starts your day with success. Create your pillars. Who are you? What is unbreakable and cannot be shifted. Only compete with you. Don't care what the world things.

Eliot went on to the Ultimate Fighting Championship, after which ultimately, he was released from the UFC. He returned again briefly but ultimately retired from MMA. Competition.

In addition to being the co-owner and head instructor at Easton Training Center, Eliot became the head coach of Elevation Fight Team, one of the country's most highly regarded MMA teams. Despite his success as a business owner and coach, in the summer of 2015, Eliot suffered through a bout of severe anxiety, insomnia, and depression, which he hadn't experienced since his adolescence. Relying on support from his friends and family in conjunction with ongoing therapy, Eliot has been able to overcome his anxiety and now seeks to help others who may be suffering from a similar affliction.

In his book The Gospel of Fire, Eliot shares his story of breaking down and learning to build himself back up by acknowledging his shortcomings, accepting his challenges, freeing himself from fear, and maximizing his opportunities.

What's true strength: beating up a tough opponent, or admitting the tears you shed when the fights are over?On this episode of the ROI Online Podcast, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt Eliot Marshall shares the many lessons he's learned as a bullied kid turned UFC fighter turned business owner—and how these lessons apply to life outside of the ring as well.Since he was a young kid, the only place Eliot felt like he fit in was the Martial Arts Academy. He struggled to make friends at school, and with his half-Black half-Jewish heritage, found himself the victim of bullies more than once. But fighting was a way to work through his pain and fear. It became his passion, and he grew stronger, he turned that passion into a career.During fights, the fear of death creates an adrenaline rush unlike anything else. Eliot felt alive, strong, and free. But, while fear was his greatest strength in the ring, it makes life outside the academy very difficult. He has struggled with constant anxiety and dark episodes of depression. Fighting isn't a life-long gig. Eventually, you get to a place where you need to start something new. For Eliot, that something new was his own Martial Arts Academy, the Easton Training Center in Colorado. He began teaching his skill to others. As rewarding as teaching was, he still found himself in the depths of depression. He stayed up late, crying and wrestling with the pain inside of him. His students stayed with him during that period. Their late-night phone calls and weekly support kept him going.Eliot believes what really makes a man isn't how hard he can punch or how much he can take. It's showing up, setting an example, and sharing the highs and the lows. It's easy to pretend like everything is fine, but acknowledging when you're hurting and when you've messed up is much more difficult. He practices this regularly with his kids.Eliot shares his story in his book, The Gospel of Fire. He also hosts a podcast of the same name. His school has become one of Colorado's leading martial arts schools, with 7 locations across the Denver area.You can learn more about Eliot here:https://eliotmarshall.com/Listen to Eliot's podcast: https://eliotmarshall.com/category/podcasts/Read Eliot's book: The Gospel of Fire: Strategies for Facing Your Fears, Confronting Your Demons, and Finding Your PurposeRead the books referenced in this podcast:The Four Agreements by Don Miguel RuizGet your copy Steve Brown's book, The Golden Toilet.

Shaun and Chuck welcome Easton Training Center owner and head coach of the Elevation Fight Team, Eliot Marshall, to the show and discuss the culture and structure of training for the team, Justin Gaethje's technical improvement under Trevor Wittman, whether he prefers a Khabib or Conor McGregor matchup next for Justin, Drew Dober's big leap forward over his last several fights, particularly against Alexander Hernandez, why Alistair Overeem has been able to continue competing at a high-level now into his forties, Cory Sandhagen's next fight, being able to use the word “failure” without being personally attached to it, and much more. First, The Athletic MMA's own Josh Gross joins the show to debate whether Jon Jones should fight Francis Ngannou next or not, how the fight might play out, the odds that it actually happens, and more. And, the guys hand out their second-ever unanimous Interim Title of the Week to close the show.
