Brian Swan and the One Method to Have the Perfect Day Every Day

We all have an expiration date. 

Are you making sure you are doing ALL THE THINGS you want to do before your time comes? Or are you leaving them for later?

Brian Swan (@unstoppablesurfer) is the co-founder of the Unstoppable Branding Agency & founder of Unstoppable Beard. He went from being a robotics engineer to becoming a semi-pro surfer & online entrepreneur. 

His Unstoppable Family became the 1st digital nomadic family & has created multiple successful businesses online from E-commerce, consulting, marketing. branding & PR. 

This has allowed him to become an expert in BRANDING and MARKETING and he taught ME more than a few things during this episode! 

After reaching corporate success and at the very peak of their corporate careers, Brian and his wife Rhonda (@rhondaswan) realized they wanted to live life to the fullest. After a HUGE financial setback, they decided to grab their suitcases and travel around the world… it’s been 12 YEARS and they’re still at it!

Brian is a big proponent of bringing happiness to your life RIGHT NOW, and in this episode, he provides strategies that you can IMPLEMENT TODAY to start creating the life you really want. 

Brian shares his ONE EXERCISE to create the perfect day every day! Plus, he explains the S.U.R.F. method that has allowed him to reach balance in his life. It allows him to GET ORGANIZED and have time for himself, his work, and his family. 

In S.U.R.F., S stands for Set up your day for success; U for uncover, discover, declare; R for revenue-generating activities, and F for family and friends. He goes in-depth into each of these aspects of his day and it is SO EASY to implement this method in your life. You won’t regret it!

Brian emphasizes the fact that changing your life is simply A DECISION you have to make. Ask yourself: “if I knew I was going to die in six months, what would I be doing right now?”

If the answer is not a resounding: “exactly what I’m doing!!!”, then what are you waiting for? IT’S TIME TO MAKE A CHANGE!

Brian also talks about how he and his wife have built six-figure businesses, and how they have empowered their 13-YEAR-OLD daughter to do the same! 

Hanalei (@hanaleiswan) is a fashion designer and an entrepreneur thanks to a simple question they asked her when she was just a child. “What if you could be who you want to be when you grow up RIGHT NOW?”

Are YOU who you want to be?

If you are ready to bring happiness into your life TODAY don’t wait another second. TUNE IN!
