Becoming an Epic Entrepreneur, with Bill Gilliland

Becoming an Epic Entrepreneur, with Bill Gilliland

Episode 57. “…everybody's talking about the great resignation. I think it's just the great reshuffling.”

 Bill Gilliland is an award winning business coach, best selling author, presenter, and a 5X business owner and entrepreneur.

Bill found his true purpose in coaching other business owners to success and has worked with 100's of business owners to achieve EPIC results, while also helping them achieve their personal goals.

Bill is currently one on the top ActionCOACH business coaches in the world and is on a mission to provide world-class, life-changing business coaching and education to 10,000 entrepreneurs. 

Bill loves to teach entrepreneurs how to live out their purpose and he shares some of his insight with Linda.

  • “People sometimes think that their accountants should be their coach. They want to be your accountant. They want to do your numbers. They want to be your tax person. They can give you great advice and you should have a great accountant, but most of them don't want to be a coach for you or your business.”
  • “If somebody’s generally happy and they make a lot of money, they’re probably still going to be happy. If they're miserable and they make a lot of money, they're still going to be miserable.”
  • “If you think that money's going to make you happy that isn't going to work. You need to get yourself worked out first and then you can enjoy the money.
  • “If you don't get help, then you don't have any freedom. You end up working a hundred hours a weeks and missing soccer games and those kinds of things.  Define success for yourself.”
