@jkeyesauthor is the former CEO of 7/11 and Blockbuster 🤯. I asked him the biggest driving factor of his success that enabled him to become a CEO of two multibillion dollar companies. #wealth #entrepreneur #financialfreedom #career #motivation

what industry did you decide to pursue a career and had the blessing to be former ceo of seven eleven also was former chairman and ceo of blockbuster so you were the ceo of seven eleven and blockbuster i was the ceo of seven eleven and blockbuster yeah what was the biggest driving factor of your success that enabled you to work your way up and become a ceo of a multibillion-dollar company like seven eleven yeah i've got three things for you i'll give them together my gift first change people hate change everybody has changed harvey mackay a friend of mine bestselling author says the only one that likes changes a wet baby
and it's true people react differently to change and they like go i don't want to do this i don't want to do this will change is reality and change equals opportunity so i've coined that expression ceo is all about change equals opportunity if you embrace it you'll see that if i respond to this change and others don't i'm gonna turn that into shareholder value the second is confidence because when things change you lack confidence you're like oh no woe is me what's gonna happen right but confidence is all about preparation so the more you prepare the more you can win the third is about clarity simplicity the hardest thing in the world is to keep things simple so i think it was michelangelo or somebody that said true elegance is in simplicity i can't lead if you can't understand so it's up to me to keep things simple and clear change confidence clarity you want to know the path to being a ceo of a company or your life it's those three things
