In this episode of Inspire Your Success podcast, I got to interview Omar Itani.  Omar was working a dream job at Google a few years ago before he decided to pursue his entrepreneurial passions and quit his corporate job. Omar is a writer, an ex-Google, and an entrepreneur. He’s the Founder of Lovers of The Sea, a brand that raises awareness about plastic pollution and helps you reduce your everyday plastic footprint. He also runs a weekly newsletter about creativity and self-development. His writing, which has been featured in Thrive Global, Mind Cafe, and The Startup, will inspire you to look inward, master your mind, and change the way you think about what it means to live a slow, meaningful, and joyful life.   Now, he’s a top writer on Medium and is passionate about sharing his passion for self-improvement with others.  When you listen to the episode, you will learn: How he quit his corporate dream job (and how you can too) What it takes to make money writing online How to keep evolving your mind to live a better life and create a thriving online business  Make sure to follow and read more of Omar’s viral hits here: 13 Rumi Quotes That Will Change The Way You Think (Friend Link) 10 Daily Habits That Are Drastically Improving My Life (Friend Link) I Left My Job at Google and Started My Own Business – The Truth About Entrepreneurship (Friend Link) Are You Ready to Start Your Freelance Writing Career? Freelance writing is easy, as long as you have one thing… CLIENTS. Without clients, none of this works.   Here’s the thing, there are so many talented writers out there who don’t get the chance to shine because they don’t know how to find paying clients.   Because honestly, there’s a lot of information out there and it’s easy to get overwhelmed and not know where to start.   If you’re like most writers, it’s easy to think… Is Upwork a scam? Should I pitch on job boards? Where can I find clients to email?

Have you started writing on Medium.com yet? Recently, I’ve had a lot of students inside my course, Freelance to 5K, ask me about Medium lately and I wanted to share some of that with you. First off, Medium is a great platform for writers. I love it and HIGHLY suggest it for all my coaching and course students. It’s clean, easy to read, and you get started today. But if you’re a brand new Medium writer, it’s hard to navigate the platform and figure out how to: Get your content read Learn what to write about  How to get featured in publications And a lot more. But in the latest episode of Inspire Your Success, I’ll help you with one of those hurdles -- getting featured in publications. To find success quickly like I did with Medium you HAVE to become a writer in publications. Otherwise, the odds of making consistent money as a Medium writer are slim (or will take a long time). Because if you don’t publish in publications, you’re relying on your own followers to read the story.  And if you’re brand new, you don’t have any (or have >100). But not all publications are the same, some are extremely difficult to get featured in while others are much more accessible to new writers. When you listen to the latest episode, you will hear: More about publications  How to get featured in publications My 5 favorite Medium publications for new writers  And a lot more. 5 Publications The Ascent The Startup P.S.

In this writing Wednesday edition of Inspire Your Success podcast, I break down a 4-week, 30 day plan to earn your first $1,000 writing.  If you've been struggling to hit your freelancing goals, you'll love this one. 30-Day Plan to Make Your First $1,000 Writing​ All it takes is one person to say yes. As soon as one client hires you to write content online, everything can change. The amount of money doesn’t matter either because getting paid to write words online is a magical feeling. My first freelance writing gig was back in 2017 when I got paid $30 to write about golf from a guy on Upwork. I remember the surge of dopamine flooding through my body when the invoice was paid. Even though I was making six figures before I quit my job to blog, that $30 proved to me that I could make money freelancing. Because if you can get one person to say yes then you can get a lot more. Because even during the chaotic times that we’re in right now, you can still make money writing. None of my clients have stopped since the lockdown and people are still pumping out content. Sadly, so many writers never get off the starting line and never get to experience what it’s like to get paid to write about your passion. To help you, I created a bulletproof four-week action plan. Follow the steps below to hit the ground running and take action on being a well-paid freelance writer.

In this episode, I cover 7 reasons why most freelance writers (and freelancers in any niche for that matter) fail. My goal with Inspire Your Success podcast is to help you SPEED up success and I'm confident that avoiding these seven mistakes will drastically help. I’ve failed a lot since I hit publish on my first blog post in January 2016. But failing can teach you a ton of great lessons — as long as you are looking for them. As Bill Gates said, “Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can’t lose.” Learning from my failures is why I’ve found my version of success as a freelancer — being able to work at home, publish content online, and never go back to a 9–5. But sadly, a lot of writers have the same goals but give up too quickly and never get to reap the rewards. I’m confident that if you can avoid these seven mistakes, you can find more success than you thought possible.

This is Episode 29 of the VulnerABLE Podcast!Growing up he'd get picked on for his size, which would build an ego that was just masking low self-esteem. Now he's a successful freelance writer, and inspiring others to find personal and financial freedom!As a kid, he would face people picking on him, mainly because of his size. This would give him a constant drive to prove people wrong, which would give him an ego that caused more problems than solutions. It might have seemed like it was helping him because he’d have no problem climbing up in his career, but eventually, he'd realized that it wasn’t really what he wanted. Throughout the past few years he's taken a deep dive, and really looked within himself. His realization that his past had left him with low self-esteem has allowed him to grow and become more vulnerable. When he finally decided to leave the six-figure corporate career, he figured it would take no time to become a successful entrepreneur. He took a swing at a few different ventures, and thought he’d found his calling when he started blogging about personal finance. Then, he realized although he was enjoying the writing part, blogging wasn’t the most profitable way to go about it. That’s when he discovered freelance writing, and is now finding the success and freedom he was looking for. Now, he’s offering freelance writing coaching, and has started his own podcast called Inspire Your Success. At the end of the day Michael wants to help as many people as he can find a way to gain more financial and personal freedom in their lives. For more information on Michael Leonard you can follow him on social media or visit his website, also check out his podcast: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iammichaelleonard/ Website: https://www.inspireyoursuccess.com/ Podcast: https://apple.co/2XsD81A

Sometimes success isn't about always doing more. Often times, it's about doing less. Drop these seven things from your life and I know you'll find more success than ever. 7 Things to Give Up to Become Successful 1. Impressing Others Don't compare your life to someone else's highlight reel on social media. The only person to compare yourself with is your former self. 2. Doing Shit You Hate 2019 is the year to stop doing things that don't bring your fulfillment and joy. Life's too short to spend time on things that are killing your energy and fulfillment. 3. Not Believing in Yourself Belief is a choice, choose to believe in you. While you might need to put in the work to reprogram your subconscious beliefs, it's worth it. Check your old stories and reshape your beliefs. 4. Trying to Be Perfect No one is perfect, despite what you see on social media. It's okay to have flaws, every human does. Focus on improving and show others how you deal with your imperfections. Remember, 70% done is PERFECT. 100% done is FAILURE! 5. Toxic People The five people you spend the most time with have a HUGE impact on your income, happiness, motivation, and other areas. Don't waste time with people who aren't motivated and are dragging you down. 6. Impressing Others People are going to judge you regardless of what you do. Quit trying to impress others and start impressing yourself. 7. Thinking Small Life's too short to not thing BIG. Ask yourself, will you feel better by thinking and achieving small or thinking big and getting to 80% achievement? Because even if you "fail" you're going to be way ahead of where you would with small thinking.

Welcome to the first episode of Inspire Your Success podcast. My name is Michael Leonard and I'm so glad you're here with me today.  I started this blog (inspireyoursuccess.com) and podcast to help you build an online business and learn the habits of successful entrepreneurs. In this episode, I document why I left a cushy, 6-figure job in 2017 to pursue entrepreneurship. At the end of the day, I was unfulfilled and knew I was meant to do more than sit at a cubicle for the rest of my life. When I left, most people thought I was crazy. The craziest part is that when I quit, I had $0 coming in. In fact, I had only made $200 from my blog ever. Luckily, I saved a lot before quitting so give myself the chance to bet on myself.  I knew I had to burn the boats to take the island. Now that I've been on this journey for nearly two years, I want to share more about my story with this podcast to help people like me. In this podcast, I'll be sharing experiences of my journey and interview entrepreneurs, coaches, authors, and successful people to share their secrets.  Thanks so much for being here with me, I look forward to inspiring YOUR success!
