Ralph Zuranski: Do you follow your hunches & intuition?
Mike Filsaime: Yes I do. Pretty much like you just said, you have to be careful with your ideas. That’s where out sourcing comes in. If you can find people to manage the projects you can put other ideas out there on the back burner and move them a little bit closer to the front burner if you understand how to out source.
There’s a great expression that says “money likes speed” and I agree with that. If you do decide to take action on something, do it very quickly. Because money likes speed and money attracts speed. When you work fast you can get into this great zone where you can start bringing things to the market very quickly.
Ralph Zuranski: What specific philosophy or philosophies guide your life and decisions?
Mike Filsaime: I believe in principles so certainly that are a lot of things I’d like to do to be a better man, to be a better husband and be a better marketer. One of the specific things that I like to do is to let go and stop thinking or ever believe that I know everything.
I’m a big believer in continued learning. Again Stephen Covey & another one of the seven habits, Habit #7 says “You must continue to sharpen the saw.” So even if you start to learn and you sharpen that saws & it’s the best saw in the world what ends up happening is that months or years later that same saw built on great knowledge becomes dull if you continue to use it every day.
You must continue to sharpen the saw. I recommend that everybody be a student of learning and learn from the masters, those people that have blazed the trail. Sometimes and in most cases you have to pay for that information. But you’ll find that anything you pay for when learning from the best will come back to you tenfold.
Ralph Zuranski: What is your perspective on goodness, ethics and moral behavior?
Mike Filsaime: Again, those are life principles. Those aren’t things in my opinion that one person can say “Well that’s your view on ethics.” Fundamentally there is a difference between right and wrong. If you are even questioning it then in some cases it probably can be wrong.
We know deep down in our hearts what the right things to do are and what the wrong things to do are. I believe that in anything that you do it will attract that same thing to you. If you live an ethical life you will find yourself surrounded by ethical people.
You will have an ethical business and you will have ethical customers working with you and everything like that. Anything that you try to kid yourself with or try to resist is going to push back at you in the same way. If you’re working and you are doing things unethically it will come back to bite you. It’s just a terrible way to have a mindset to think that you can take advantage of people. You really need to just cleanse your soul and know the right things to do and live your life in that direction.
Ralph Zuranski: What place does the power of prayer have in your life?
Mike Filsaime: Well you know Ralph this something that I’ll talk from the heart and say this in a way as to not offend anyone or any faith. I will say it in some generic terms. I believe in a higher place and a higher person.
I do have a God in my life and have a very good relationship with him. In terms of quote “religion” or would I say I am a religious person? No and again I don’t want to offend anybody but I’ll speak my heart here for a second.
I think sometimes people get confused between the difference of the words faith and religion. I believe everybody should have faith. I also believe that what is religion? Religion means doing things religiously. Sometimes those rules were given to us by man not by what we believe our God is or the book that was written by God.
I believe in faith and having a relationship with God. As I said before, you know what’s right and you know what’s wrong and you know what God wants from you. So I think you need to walk that life as close to the way they wanted it as best you possibly can.
Ralph Zuranski: What principles are you willing to sacrifice your life for?
Mike Filsaime: If you truly believe in your heart that the soul goes on then our time on this earth is so miniscule that it can’t even be measured if we talk in the terms of eternity. I think we have a purpose here on earth to do what’s right and to live a life in the way that God would want us.
So what that means is that anytime you are faced with a situation and deep down, sometimes it’s very subconscious & you don’t know what to do. Your subconscious takes over and you just do what’s right. I believe that anybody listening on this call would go into a house and save a child if they knew there was a life in there, a precious life that needed to be changed whether it was a stranger or their daughter.
I think that’s I inherent in all of us. I love to see those types of stories where you see average, ordinary everyday people do great things. That is something I think is unique to the human spirit. I think that it’s blessed to see those things.
