Welcome back for Episode 21! This episode is not only a masterclass in business mindset, sales and public speaking - it's an inspiring story from a man who' insights and experiences not only get you thinking, but leave you an evolved version of yourself. Shukeel A Chohan spent years in the financial services industry, and lost everything not once - but twice. The first time in 2008 when the worlds economies fell apart, where he lost the biggest deal of his life at the moment the ink was drying on the contract worth £200,000 - he also saw his income fall by 80% literally overnight. This is the story of a man who's lost it all, hit rock bottom, and worked hard and smart to get it all back again. In his words, 'it's not how hard you fall that matters, it's how you pick yourself back up'. But what part did the legendary Jim Rohn have to play in all this? Well, he probably saved Shukeel's life... and I'll let you listen to the podcast to find why! Shukeel has given YOU, the Optimised Crew, a fantastic special o
