One of the fastest and most effective ways to learn a new skill and level up in your life is to surround yourself with people who have already mastered what you aim to. This is a key lesson that Nate and Bethany Smith AKA Your Cashflow Couple join us on the show today to discuss. Our conversation opens with some background information about our guests and they talk about Nate’s career in the military and how it has influenced their journey into real estate. One of Nate and Bethany’s big strengths is the entrepreneurial mindset that they both share and they talk about how they formed this and the role it has played in different ambitious projects that they have realized in the past. A big pattern for Nate and Bethany is their habit of aiming to connect with the most accomplished people in a particular field in order to learn from them, and they weigh in on how this has influenced their current business plan and life more broadly.
