Do you struggle with feeling stuck and trapped where you are? Are you so focused on the possibility of failure that you can’t see how to make that first step? Many of us hold back from pursuing our dreams because we don’t want to take the risk of failure. But is the risk of never changing an even bigger risk?

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.
Quotes from the show:
- “The fear is what if you go after it and fail?” @CalvinWayman
- “What if I woke up in 10 years and nothing changes.” @CalvinWayman
- “The ones in life that make it, don’t quit.” @CalvinWayman
- “Negotiations don’t start until after the first no.” @CalvinWayman
- “You can’t put your worth in the result.” @CalvinWayman
- “Courage is being scared and taking a step anyway.” @CalvinWayman
