Gord Nicodemus: Changing Your Experience of Me

In this episode of Alignment First, I sit down with Gord Nicodemus to talk about building real freedom on top of the foundation you already have. We dive into chasing a dream job that paid less than boxing groceries, walking on at Oregon State two days after tearing his MCL, teaching entrepreneurship through lemonade stands and engineering investments in his rental car business that return 50 percent over two years. Real, actionable ways to become the fittest leader possible.

Key Takeaways

1. The job you dreamed about may not pay the bills you actually have. Build accordingly.

2. Your body will give you a setback. Your decisions decide what you do with it.

3. Systems are your decisions on paper. Write them down once. Reuse them forever.

4. Teach your kids to control what they actually control. Attitude. Energy. Effort.

5. The W-2 is one stream. Aligned leaders build more than one.
