Join Up Dots - Business Coaching Made Easy (With A Bit Of Life Coaching Too)

INTERVIEW: Mark A Lack: A Man Who Is Outperforming His Own Identity Our guest today lives his life by two rules. And these are two rules that by and large most people will try to keep away from, and then they wonder why they haven’t got their dream life. He believes that You can’t be afraid to take a risk. You absolutely MUST have a plan. And then if you know anything about him, he adds to the mix a huge belief in himself, a flexing hustle muscle that he demonstrates everyday, and an easy going nature that helps him reach out to the movers and shakers across the globe. As a young man, he had a burning passion to become a professional paintballer, and upon getting his first gun from his parents set out to achieve his aim.  And it seems that what he wants to do, he makes sure that he does its as within four years he had travelled the world shooting capsules of paint at people winning $300,000 dollars in the process. Even gaining the top prize of $160,000 in just one weekend. But at his core burned a question. A question that had occurred to him several years earlier, and had remain within him. Gnawing away. He asked himself  “If people can come from nothing and create insane amounts of wealth in one lifetime, then shouldn’t someone like myself coming from a middle class family who has the support from their family and lives in “The Land of Opportunity” be able to easily do the same thing?” Wow, for a fourteen year old kid that shows awareness beyond his years. He realised at any early age that comfort creates mediocrity, and pain motives change. And now after investing over $500,000 of his own money on self development, and spending time with the likes of Bob Proctor, Jack Canfield and even Arnold Schwarzenegger he is taking those personal skills and sharing them with the world with his Peak Performance Club. But how does someone at the age of 14 start thinking in such an advanced way, especially when it appears he didn’t have anything to force him to think that way? And where does he find the greatest need within the people that he coaches and inspires across the world? Well lets find out as we bring onto the show to start joining up dots, with the one and only Mr Mark A Lack.
