At MVU Amsterdam, on stage, I asked the audience three simple questions about their journey as entrepreneurs. 

And the answers that came back were powerful.

I want to share the questions and some of the answers with you today. 

See if you relate.

Question 1: What’s the most important thing you need to learn to grow your business?

“Marketing / social media / sales.”

“How to differentiate myself.”

“Get over perfectionism and motivate myself to start doing instead of planning and perfecting.” 

“Financial management.” 

“LEARN TO HIRE EFFECTIVELY” 

Question 2: What’s stopping you from doubling your revenue?

“I don’t follow an action plan. I get distracted.” 

“My fear of taking risks, quitting my job, and putting my family in danger”.

“I’m lacking the visibility and the operational systems. I also create an energetic barrier between myself and my wealth.”

The fear of letting go of the current practices—the ones that are NOT making money but are familiar. It’s also the not-knowing of who to hire and when”.

“Time (as I am currently working a full-time job with 2 young kids).” 

Question 3: Who would you most like to learn from in business?

“Richard Branson, because he joyfully innovates in multiple sectors. And because he is a community builder with a bigger vision of what he can help change in the world.”

“Naval Ravikant—because he is practical and simple and makes so much sense.” 

“Oprah Winfrey.” 

“Vishen to integrate strategy and implementation”

“Steven Bartlett—he learns so many insights from different successful people and knows how to talk about ideas”.

When I read these answers, I realized: business owners aren’t just struggling with marketing hacks, funnels, or ad spend.

The deeper challenges are fear, overwhelm, lack of clarity, and self-doubt. 

And the biggest breakthroughs happen when you build the right mindset, community, and support around you.

This is what we’re building next

You see, we are looking to launch an Entrepreneurial Degree due to popular demand.

This degree is designed to train people in the art of scaling businesses from $5 million to $10 million and even $100 million in revenue.

As many of our Mindvalley teachers—and I—have done.

And we’d love to get your feedback as we shape it.

Now it’s your turn

We’ve opened up the same 3 questions to you and our entire Mindvalley community today.

Because if you’re going to build a $100M business—one that lasts, one that uplifts, one that changes lives—you need more than tactics.

Take 2 minutes to answer these questions

Your voice will help us co-create something the world hasn’t seen before: an entrepreneurial path that scales both your business and your soul.

With love and vision,

— Vishen

P.S. After you take the survey, leave a comment below and let me know what you are looking forward to with Mindvalley.

  1. Hi Vishen, iam a big fan of mind valley, my life transformed to larger extent because of mind valley. Infact iam an entrepreneur today because of mind valley. But i am stuck and not able to scale it or progress, would love if mind valley can help me grow in this

  2. I joined Mindvalley with one purpose – learn as much as I could about AI – “Amplify with AI”, to integrate into my business world. However – as I immersed myself in the AI side of Mindvalley, I suddenly found myself becoming more and more engaged in numerous of the other utterly spectacular options Vishen offers us through Mindvalley – Wildfit, Paul McKenna, AI for Emotional Growth… All at no further cost to myself. AMAZING!

    I live in New Zealand, so many of the live broadcasts by Mindvalley kick off at 3am… This has been a journey for me, but I have gained SOO much out of these, that time has not been a major issue. Again – AMAZING!

    I am beyond grateful to Vishen for the contribution Mindvalley has made to my life and my businesses…

    Thankyou

  3. Hi Vishen – I have been with MindValley continuously for many years now and absolutely enjoyed the journey of evolution of my soul with the exposure and guidance that is offered in this platform. I love myself now…the version I have become now was my dream a few years ago!!! And I appreciate you very much for identifying the gap in Entrepreneurship field where coaching is necessary to break through the old and conditioned beliefs and perceived fears that slow down or prevent success. As so many changes are happening fast in business field with AI, it will be wonderful to learn from the most successful business persons who are enjoying stupendous success. I will look forward to seeing this program implemented. Thanks to you and Mindvalley for bringing the best knowledge to us.

  4. I’m curious about the Entrepreneurial Degree as someone with a Masters Degree in Psychotherapy who owns and operates a community mental health group practice and would love to see some focus on successful brick & mortar businesses in addition to online business of coaching and spiritual direction!

  5. Hi Vishen & Mindvalley:

    I just submitted my 3 answers — and I’m genuinely excited about the vision for this Entrepreneurial Degree.

    As the founder of the Drelġé Legacy Universe™ — a multidimensional empowerment brand rooted in self-mastery, movement, mindset, and mentorship — I’ve spent the last five years building an ecosystem that spans coaching, community events, podcasting, merchandise, nonprofit programs, and transformational experiences.

    What started as a healing journey through roller-skating has become a scalable legacy blueprint that merges personal growth, brand architecture, and soulful impact — and I’m now preparing to scale it to $10M+ and beyond.

    The next level requires support, community, and education that match the frequency of both ambition and alignment — and I believe Mindvalley is one of the few platforms bold enough to co-create at that level.

    Excited to see how this Entrepreneurial Degree unfolds — and happy to share my journey as a potential case study, collaborator, or contribution to this global movement.

    With love, vision, and velocity,

    — Dr. Laurant “Drelġé” Jolly (Dr. J1)

  6. Hey Vishen – I am in our Manifesting Mastery Class. The people I resonate with the most are you, David Ghiyame and Regan. This class is allowing me to become a better soull. I’d be open a Entrepreneurship Class with the content and teachers that could add value
