That time I was told to QUIT!?

https://youtu.be/Thl48B2bAfo

Today I talk about the time I was told to quit trying to living my dream, right to my face! It was a difficult time in my life, and felt like I was being kicked while trying to get up on my feet. It turns out that at the time I was getting mad and upset and just needed to spin the situation into a different light to give me the confidence to power through the negativity.

00:00:29 –> 00:00:35
walk that we went on today's topic I

8
00:00:35 –> 00:00:42
want to talk about the a time that I got

9
00:00:42 –> 00:00:48
told to my eyes eyeballs the eyeballs to

10
00:00:48 –> 00:00:53
quit when I was going or about to do

11
00:00:53 –> 00:00:58
when faced with starting the dreamers

12
00:00:58 –> 00:01:02
podcast and getting started

13
00:01:02 –> 00:01:06
it's something that it's you know it has

14
00:01:06 –> 00:01:10
weight on my mind but it obviously i'm

15
00:01:10 –> 00:01:14
sitting here holding my lovely daughter

16
00:01:14 –> 00:01:18
ava grace and i wouldn't be able to do

17
00:01:18 –> 00:01:23
that if I just gave up and quit like

18
00:01:23 –> 00:01:27
someone told me to do right to my face

19
00:01:27 –> 00:01:32
you know it really waiting on my mind

20
00:01:32 –> 00:01:37
for quite awhile there when it happened

21
00:01:37 –> 00:01:41
it happened like right after I was just

22
00:01:41 –> 00:01:44
getting started

23
00:01:44 –> 00:01:50
I'm so like a little over two years ago

24
00:01:50 –> 00:01:56
and it was like it was kind of took me

25
00:01:56 –> 00:02:02
back a little bit so I'm like hey you

26
00:02:02 –> 00:02:08
know I'm i know what i'm doing i have

27
00:02:08 –> 00:02:12
this uh all this experience and in

28
00:02:12 –> 00:02:15
business and I understand where i'm

29
00:02:15 –> 00:02:19
coming from as far as like what I'm

30
00:02:19 –> 00:02:23
leaving and when i'm giving up because

31
00:02:23 –> 00:02:28
I've I gave it three years of thinking

32
00:02:28 –> 00:02:33
before I decided to give all that life

33
00:02:33 –> 00:02:38
up to do my own thing and here i am

34
00:02:38 –> 00:02:44
two-and-a-half years later doing it so

35
00:02:44 –> 00:02:53
you know when have you got to remember

36
00:02:53 –> 00:03:00
sometimes people really love you I and

37
00:03:00 –> 00:03:03
they want the best for you and they

38
00:03:03 –> 00:03:07
think they know what the best is for you

39
00:03:07 –> 00:03:11
even though they don't really know the

40
00:03:11 –> 00:03:15
situation or what they're what they're

41
00:03:15 –> 00:03:19
talking about because maybe they don't

42
00:03:19 –> 00:03:23
even have an experience that that gets

43
00:03:23 –> 00:03:26
them there or maybe they're just jealous

44
00:03:26 –> 00:03:31
because they gave up on their own dreams

45
00:03:31 –> 00:03:37
and you know they're dirges quitters or

46
00:03:37 –> 00:03:41
in some cases haters but but a lot of

47
00:03:41 –> 00:03:45
cases it's because people you know they

48
00:03:45 –> 00:03:49
they want to show their their love and

49
00:03:49 –> 00:03:53
compassion for you and they don't want

50
00:03:53 –> 00:03:56
to see struggle or whatever it is but

51
00:03:56 –> 00:04:00
you know what

52
00:04:00 –> 00:04:06
it's it's tough to hear it

53
00:04:06 –> 00:04:11
uh and and I didn't want to hear it was

54
00:04:11 –> 00:04:15
not obviously they want to hear because

55
00:04:15 –> 00:04:22
i'm here today to talk you know I

56
00:04:22 –> 00:04:28
survived all that so I you know that's

57
00:04:28 –> 00:04:34
why one of the reasons why I go really

58
00:04:34 –> 00:04:41
hard at the idea that i want you to take

59
00:04:41 –> 00:04:47
that step back and realize what it is

60
00:04:47 –> 00:04:52
that you want to do with your life and

61
00:04:52 –> 00:04:56
and do the research before you start

62
00:04:56 –> 00:04:59
making all these ideas like oh well this

63
00:04:59 –> 00:05:03
is gonna work and that's going to work

64
00:05:03 –> 00:05:09
you know really a way your your your

65
00:05:09 –> 00:05:13
strength of what you're great at and

66
00:05:13 –> 00:05:16
what you could be better at or what you

67
00:05:16 –> 00:05:20
can get someone else to help you do on

68
00:05:20 –> 00:05:24
that journey and and then go for it you

69
00:05:24 –> 00:05:28
know do that continue to do the research

70
00:05:28 –> 00:05:32
continue to learn continue that not just

71
00:05:32 –> 00:05:35
have the experiences and do it but the

72
00:05:35 –> 00:05:39
learn from those experiences and get

73
00:05:39 –> 00:05:44
better at the things that you want to do

74
00:05:44 –> 00:05:49
like Avis trying so hard to want to talk

75
00:05:49 –> 00:05:53
to this microphone that she's like she's

76
00:05:53 –> 00:05:56
reaching out for it but I'm not going to

77
00:05:56 –> 00:05:58
tell her to stop but I'm gonna keep

78
00:05:58 –> 00:06:01
