What I learned from reading Copy This!: How I turned Dyslexia, ADHD, and 100 square feet into a company called Kinkos by Paul Orfalea.
I originally made this podcast 565 days ago, and I wanted to republish it as a bonus episode for two reasons.
The first reason is I think that you're going to find Paul's life story inspiring.
He goes from people telling him that he's dumb when he's young because he can't read, because he's dyslexic, from graduating at the bottom of his class in high school to being a billionaire.
And I think you'll find a lot of his ideas both counterintuitive and valuable.
The second reason I wanted to publish this episode again is because I wanted to tell you about this fantastic conversation that Paul had with my friend Patrick, who's the host of Invest like the best.
The conversation that Patrick and Paul had will make you laugh, and you'll learn a ton about how Paul built a multi billion dollar business.
I would say a majority of the people that listen to founders also listen to invest like the best.
If you don't listen to invest like the best already, search for invest like the best.
Make sure you follow the show.
It is one of my favorite podcasts.
Patrick is now a very close friend of mine.
Listen to it's episode 299.
It's about the money.
That's a conversation with Paul.
And if you're interested in more of my story, my backstory, what I've learned from reading hundreds of biographies.
I did an episode with Patrick, which is my favorite conversation I've ever done.
That is episode 292.
It is called Passion and Pain.
And without further ado, we're going to get into Paul's amazing, amazing life story.
I hope you like this.
