Resistance.  Resistance is the War every artist must face.  Resistance is the War we all face.  It is the battle that must be won to achieve success.  Overcoming resistance is what turns the amateur into the professional.  Resistance takes many forms and fashions its way into our weaknesses.  It knows exactly how to stop you.  It knows just how to make sure you fail.  Give up.  Miserable and alone.  Resistance is what keeps most people from ever realizing their full potential.

The hardest part of any new endeavor is taking that first leap of faith.  You gotta start ugly.  So often we spend so much time, gathering information, and procrastinating for fear of how we will be judged.  But we cannot complete the journey, reach the summit, or achieve our dreams until we get going.  Starting ugly is the first step.  Listen, no one looks good doing something the first time.  Whether learning to ride a bike or start a business, it will take time to become good and even more time to be great.  That means putting in the reps.  TAKING ACTION.  That action leads to opportunity.  Opportunity leads to improvement.  Improvement leads to success, and success leads to fortune. 

Chris Krimitsos is not only the definition of Starting Ugly.  He wrote the book.  Chris learned this firsthand, after leaving TV production and starting his own business development group in Tampa Florida.  Starting Ugly, he would meet with anyone who asked.  Filing his calendar with meetings, masterminds, and milestones. Chris quickly became known as the source for business and real estate development in central Florida.  And that’s just the beginning, from there Chris launched his own podcast, helped his wife with hers, and now helps countless others realize their own dreams and goals. 

One of those thousands is me.  Chris personally changed my life with his last live Podfest event beck in Feb.  Established in 2015, Podfest gave podcasters like me, a sense of community and a conference to network and grow.  That event marked a major turning point for me personally and this podcast.  Hosted in Orlando, Florida, Podfest provided me with connections and created relationships that continue to grow to this day.  The relationships have further provided information, interviews, and introspection on how to make this podcast better.  I am still applying new concepts and systems that I learned from the experience over 9 months ago.  Chris has changed the industry of podcasting and united a group of incredibly talented people.  He has changed the path of the extraordinary podcast in more ways than I can count.  I will forever be in his debt.  Be sure to check out his virtual pod and video fests that continue to inspire and educate utilizing digital marketing.  Hear how he started ugly, figured it out along the way, and got everything he asked for.   I hope you enjoy learning from the man, Chris Krimitsos.
