G2G - The Mindset of an Entrepreneur w/ Archie Merigold

January 16, 2024 • Jonathan Tillger & Geoff Edie • Season 4 • Episode 140

When I first got started in sales I was encouraged to start reading and listening to personal development greats like Jim Rohn and Zig Ziglar. I remember how much this expanded my mind in the first few years. I learned new philosophies for business and life, but one quote always stood out to me.

“When the student is ready, the teacher appears”

To me it was a saying without meaning. Because it hadn’t been proven to me… yet.

Looking back now I can see that I’ve been blessed with many teachers along the way. Some taught me a lot, some a little. Some stayed for years, and some faded away almost as quickly as they appeared.

But I learned from all of them.

At this stage in my life I still listen to the teachers I had early on, but their messages aren’t mind blowing as they once were, for the simple fact that I’ve applied most of what I’ve learned from them. Yes I’ve grown as a person because of it, but I was ready for the next level.

That’s when a new teacher appeared.

Our guest on this episode of “Guide 2 the Grind” is Archie Merigold, the epitome of an entrepreneur. In the 80’s he gave up a good job to start a business. After finding massive success with that he began investing in real estate and eventually got into land development.

I’ve had the good fortune to connect with Archie in my personal life, and I’m learning a ton from him. Trust me when I say you don’t want to miss this interview.
