Episode #211
Curate an environment of excellence by surrounding yourself—physically and virtually—with people and inputs that reflect where you want to go.
Take small, proactive actions to prototype new paths (networking, informational coffees, part-time transitions); action opens doors and clarifies direction.
Own your situation and mindset; use adversity as a productive pause, and let strong dissatisfaction fuel decisive change aligned with your values and family.
figure out what you want to do and start pursuing. As you pursue, as you take action, any action, new trails will come into sight. New doors will open and you'll discover different opportunities that you never even knew of. You may learn that the trail you're on isn't what you want to be doing, or you'll learn that it's easier than you think or it's harder than you thought.
When the hate for where we are becomes so strong, that's when we'll change, right?
You're a product of the five people you spend the most time with.
A story like yours. (51:29)
Eric is a Pathfinder who I wanted to have on the podcast. By Pathfinder I mean Eric is in alum of my coaching program, Reveal Your Path. When you witness a radically transformed life it’s proof that you can change too. I’m bringing Eric on today not to talk about my program but because he is an example of your ability to create change in your life, get out of a rut and live an extraordinary life, not just despite your failures but because of them. Eric was in an unfulfilling job. It was comfortable but he knew there was more in him. He knew that he was leaving too much on the table and he didn’t see a way out. I’ve known Eric for a long time but we hadn’t talked to each other for quite a long time before reconnecting a few years ago. You’re going to find his story very relatable and very powerful. And you’re going to leave this episode inspired, energized and excited because you’re going to fully understand the steps that he took to get out of his rut and onto his path so that you can too.
