“It’s not about ‘what am I going to get?’ or ‘what am I going to achieve?’. It’s ‘who am I going to become?’.”
Marx Acosta-Rubio
In this episode of The Modern Man, I’m joined by Marx Acosta-Rubio, a family-first business and lifestyle strategist, CEO of Focal Point, and self-proclaimed “dumbass” who helps people double their income and double their time off. Today, Marx is sharing the fascinating philosophies behind his strategies for a productive, thoughtful life.
He shines light on why we think we’re succeeding when we’re not and how to break free from the rat race and leverage your strengths to build the life you deserve. He also shares a simple, yet life-changing way to love people better, which he calls The Love Strategy.
This episode proves that if you change the way you approach life, your life will change for the better!
