In this episode I talk with Calvin Wayman who decided to completely turn his life around from where he was. He tells us how he was terrified of waking up ten years from now with nothing having changed, and how that gave him the motivation to start making steps even though he was afraid to take the leap.
Questions I asked:
- What gave you the courage to start pushing through?
- How important is it to push past no?
- How can people get unstuck?
Topics Discussed:
- How to overcome fear to go after your goals.
- Stepping out when you don’t have the answers.
- How to face the “no”.
- How to build up your courage.
