Creating a more Kindli social network, with founder Martin Diamond


In This Episode: 

 

Social media dominates our current digital landscape—but is that a good or bad thing? 

 

Someone who’s trying to tip those scales more towards positivity is Martin Diamond, the latest guest on the Measure Success Podcast. He chats with host Carl J. Cox about the downfalls of current social media platforms, and how the mission of his current work is to solve those societal problems. 

 

Martin is the sole Founder and CEO of Kindli, a new “no-hate” social media app that focuses on positivity. He’s a serial entrepreneur with experience in many industries, including technology, social media, consumer products, hospitality, and law, and has over 30 years of experience as a sole founder/CEO of his own companies. 

 

Listen to the full episode for more on what makes Kindli different from other social media platforms, the holes in the landscape that Martin hopes the app will fill, his inspiration behind starting the company, what routines have helped bolster Martin’s work as an entrepreneur, and more.

 

Here’s a Glimpse of What You’ll Learn: 

 

  • What was missing in the current social media landscape, and how Martin hopes his platform, Kindli, will fill those gaps
  • More about the problems with fake accounts on social media, and why they’re contributing to the “new battleground” of today’s digital era
  • How Kindli’s platform is different from other social platforms, and why everyone has to go through a specific authentication process before they can unlock all the app’s features
  • More about the Kindli platform’s oversight over users’ content
  • Why Martin chose to ban political content and conversations on the Kindli platform
  • How Martin grew the Kindli platform, including which celebrities were involved
  • Why purpose is more important to Martin now than money, plus how he measures Kindli’s success 
  • Why the power of routine and regimentation has been so important in Martin’s life and work
  • How Martin measures success in his personal life, and how he “turns off the clock” when he’s done working
  • The book Martin would recommend—and why it’s not actually a business book

Day 7 - One Week officially in the Books

Working on that daily habit to exercise again. 7 Push Ups completed. Starting to get that strength back. For those following, there will be a point that you need to break up the push ups into different sets. That is ok and makes sense. Here's my recommendation, whether you do the push ups from your knees or standard push ups, try to do the most amount of reps in a specific set right before you are unable to do anymore. Rest two minutes and then start your next set. Another option is to split the sets in different parts of the day. As you build strength, you will be able to do more reps in each set.
