Surging Forward Podcast - A Podcast Devoted to the Working Class
Seize the Opportunity The opportunities are there you just need to seize them. You can be successful in the trades based on the right choices you make.

Success is about making a difference. It is about being a leader. Leadership is not about power. Often people in leadership think they deserve respect, but respect is earned. Respect does not come automatically...

Episode 88 Priorties
Surging Forward Podcast - A Podcast Devoted to the Working Class
Priorities To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 3 In order for us to be successful we need to set-up priorities in our life.

Surging Forward Podcast - A Podcast Devoted to the Working Class
What is Your Why? (What does this even mean?) Being successful in the trades require skills. It requires that you learn the physics involved in how things work and what is going on. But before even attempting to learn these skills you need to understand “your why”. Most people never really stop to think about their “why”. This is the reason that many people are not Surging Forward in their life. They just go about living day to day going where the wind blows. These people have no goals. They never sat down and took the time to ask: Why am I...

Often they are looking around at others and comparing their lives to them. They think that those people must have the golden touch because everything they do is perfect. Often people do not share their struggles and put on a facade that everything is great, but deep down they are struggling. We can’t look to others for our success. The real question is: What do...
