Discover the Power in Your Intention

Host Katie Richardson is joined by infamous podcaster and voice of authority, Rick Jordan to talk about all aspects of entrepreneurship from cybersecurity for the everyday business to how he manages to remain present in the midst of major growth. Learn the power behind intention and what you need to know as a CEO with digital information to keep your business–and life–safe on this episode of What’s Working Now.

 

3 Key Takeaways

  • As soon as you lose intention, it will grow impossible to meet your goals. Even if you don’t feel like it, keeping intention will get you across that threshold. 
  • Hackers already have access to your social security and addresses. It’s time to start worrying about what they could do with that information without the right systems in place. 
  • Stop trying to force things to happen. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do the work, but things will flow if they are meant to be in place at that time.
