The Action Catalyst
Nothing Starts with No, with Bill Rancic (Entrepreneurship, Food and Beverage, Television, Business)

Who's the person you always wanted to meet but never have? I was always a huge fan of Frank Sinatra. And he's someone I just loved and just thought he was so cool. I loved him. I was fortunate enough, I met Neil Armstrong about 15 years ago. I was at an event speaking in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and he was also speaking. And that was someone on my list.

I never thought in a million years I would meet him and we had dinner together. I'm a huge aviation fan. Unbelievable to be able to have dinner with him.

I plan out my next day the night before. So I'm a big legal pad guy and I pick out what I'm going to wear the night before. So when I get up, I'm going. It's ready to go. No thinking about it. That's it. I'm a big list guy and I get real satisfaction from checking the items on the list.

It's a tough question. For entrepreneurs, it's kind of a blessing and a curse because oftentimes you have that never satisfied mindset. And it's something that I'm trying to improve upon. I think when you climb the mountain, you got to stop and look what you just did instead of trying and staring at the next peak that you have to climb. So for me, I celebrate successes along the way.

And it was something I learned from training for a marathon. When a competitive marathon runner starts the race, he breaks it down and he says, I'm going to get to mile five in this time. And I'm going to get to mile 12 and 15. And he has little celebratory mile markers along the way. That's kind of how I approach things in life.

I look at the bigger picture and that's in the back of my mind, but then I set little ones along the way and I take time to celebrate those little victories on the path to the larger one. What's something significant you've changed your mind about recently? That's another great question. Wow, these are awesome. I think...

You know, I think I've changed my mind a little bit on being flexible in life. And I think having a child makes you do that. You know, when I was in kind of growth mode and in business mode, you know, I was very regimented and, you know, kind of very precise. And I think having a child, you know, you have to kind of be a little more flexible and you got to slow the train down.

And I think that's okay in life. You know, you go through different seasons in life and You know, you don't want to have any regrets. And for me, I've learned to kind of be okay with working less. And I don't need, you know, I think I know when enough is enough. And I think I always wanted more and more and more. And now I'm like, okay, well, if that doesn't happen, that's okay.

You know, God's got a plan. And I'm learning to surrender more, where I used to try to muscle it myself. And now I just kind of hand it over to the big man. And I never grew up with money. And now that we have achieved a little bit of success, we realize that, yeah, my mom was right. Money doesn't buy happiness. My parents were both school teachers.

So that was ingrained into my head and I didn't want to believe them. And they were right. It's about the people that you surround yourself with in life. It's about the relationships and And I think being a good steward with the gifts God gave you, I think that's ultimately the mission in life. You got to use the tools that you've been given and use them wisely.
