How to 'Go Rhino' and Achieve Massive Ambitions with David Hyner
Q: How did you start interviewing high achievers and why did you pursue that research?
He started interviewing successful people after realizing his own lack of progress at 30 and found that learning from others' thinking and habits helped him prove that big, practical action and persistence were key to success.
How to 'Go Rhino' and Achieve Massive Ambitions with David Hyner
Q: What are SMART Goals and why should people not bother with them?
SMART is often misattributed; the broader insight is that top performers don't base success on rigid SMART criteria but on taking massive, well-planned steps and maintaining consistent, hard work to achieve big goals.
Go to War With the Army You've Got With Dr. Brian EA “Beam” Maue
Q: What's your background and what was your involvement in this at the very beginning?
Beam describes being brought in to help lead Afwerx after his work on hypersonics and nuclear weapon development for a Pentagon leader, ultimately forming the mission with a small core team and expanding it through strategic leadership.
A Hand Up, Not a Hand Out with Nigel Kershaw OBE
Q: How did you go about changing people's perception of homeless people?
The approach reframed homelessness by offering a tangible product (the magazine) and a social interaction with buyers, creating a social pound moment where the buyer felt they were contributing immediately to someone's livelihood, which gradually shifted public perception.
A Hand Up, Not a Hand Out with Nigel Kershaw OBE
Q: What were the biggest hurdles and obstacles that they faced at the time?
Initially the vendors faced resistance from both people who viewed selling as begging and from charities who did not understand a social enterprise approach, but the core hurdle was reframing homelessness as work and opportunity, not handouts, and showing that the venture could be financially sustainable.
