Mindset – The Invisible Glass Ceiling

Jonathan Green is the founder of ServeNoMaster.com.

For ten years he was just like many other Americans that were a part of the education merry-go-round. In 2009, he peaked in his profession. With a fresh masters degree in hand, a published dissertation and experience teaching at a university in London he accepted a position at one of the top twenty universities in America.

Years of planning and strategy came together to land him his ‘dream job.’ When his first paycheck came he began to realize that his dream was an illusion. Locked into a lower salary than he imagined for his thirties, the future began to look very bleak indeed.

Then a miracle happened – an ex girlfriend called his boss and actually got him fired. It was the worst day of his life, but also the best day. He would never have had the confidence to start his own business full time without that kick in the pants.

Within six months he was making more money than at his “dream job” and less than two years later he was making more than the lady who fired me.

So many people these days are learning that having a job is not a form of security. You can lose your job at any moment for thousands of reasons that you have no control over. Every day more super-qualified people are kicked back into the job pool and they start to flounder.Everything on Serve No Master is to prepare you for that day, even if it already came. You don’t have to quit your job, but opening up new online revenue streams can protect you.

In this interview you will learn…

  • Why we grow up thinking we need a big machine to protect us
  • On not wanting other people to have power over your destiny
  • The importance of knowing if you are motivated by positive or negative reinforcement
