Posted by Stacey on February 3, 2011

In this interview of the Full Potential Show, James Rick interviews Fred Gratzon, self-proclaimed “laziest man in North America.” and author of “Lazy Way to Success – How to Do Nothing and Accomplish Everything”.

Fred is the founder of  The Great MidWestern Ice Cream Company. His ice cream was voted as being the “Best Ice Cream in America” by People Magazine, official ice cream of the Olympic team and the Reagan White House. Fred shares his story of having lost “his baby”, the ice cream company, and then going on to start a long-distance phone company that eventually grew to revenues of over $300 million a year. Both ventures starting from scratch, no money, no resources, etc.

Fred’s approach to life is do what you have a passion about. Tasks that he doesn’t care about or have a passion for, he delegates to people he knows can.

Some things we can learn from Fred are:___________________________

1. Have a passion for what you want to do. Your enthusiasm will show and open doors for you.

2. Be persistent when facing obstacles. Don’t give up on your dream._______________________

3. Learn from your mistakes and carry on.____________________________
