E92: Interview with Rick Jordan, CEO & Founder of ReachOut Technology

After experiencing a near-death experience, our guest, Rick Jordan, promised himself that he would take control of his life more effectively. This was able to fully enjoy it with his family and also spend more time helping other people. Today, Rick shares more about this power of control he has harnessed, cybersecurity in business, the importance of balance and moderation, ethics, and more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Everything should be taken in moderation. This advice not only applies in health but also in relationships—especially if we want to nurture the long-term ones. Rick is a compassionate person. And sometimes, he thinks that this has also caused him and the other people harm.

When we’re too empathetic, bad people take advantage of it. This will not be beneficial to either of you.

Rick puts an interesting perspective on the meaning of ‘fire in the belly’. Rick believes that it is something that keeps you going and doing to get to whatever the destination is. It’s involuntary, uncontrollable. You go for something as long as you don’t feel content—as long as you don’t feel fulfilled. That’s how the fire in the belly functions.
Believe in your power and take control of your life. It’s easy to achieve your goals or even just tick off tasks on your checklist when you take responsibility and set your boundaries. We also vanish uncertainties and our fears when we just go for it. Get educated and strategise your life.
Rick is one of the most trusted voices in cybersecurity. It isn’t a new practice per se, but companies have a hard time utilising this (and other IT services). Rick is here to help you optimise its valuable impact on the growth of your company.

BEST MOMENTS

“It’s those tragedies that will lead you into things that are extremely positive.”
“Compassion is my superpower and my kryptonite at the same time.”
“Trying to be someone who you’re not and trying to be other people is not something anybody should try to do.”
“Educating yourself does actually work. You have to go out and desire for more knowledge to improve whatever area in your life.”
“I have complete control over the outcome that I want.”
“Everything is permissible but not everything is beneficial.”
