22 - Murray D - How a Graceless Gringo Became a Salsa Sensation
Unstagnate: Live an Unconventional Life | Expand Your Comfort Zone | No-Nonsense Personal Growth
I put time and effort into learning Salsa, but it didn't go anywhere. Why do some people learn dancing better and quicker than others? A few months back, I got to see my Scottish friend, Murray dancing with some of my female friends in a house party. They weren’t experienced Salsa dancer, and yet, he made them feel great and look great while he was doing it. Everything he did was smooth, effortless and graceful, and he was having a ball. And to top it off - 12 months before, he had no clue how to dance Salsa, let alone teach and lead a partner. Wow. This is exactly what I wanted when I...

If you're curious the elements were: 1. Finding Yourself 2. Having a strong "Why" 3. Taking Action Outside of Your Comfort Zone 4. Generosity and Sharing I was pretty excited and caffeinated when I recorded this. I thought it was just going to be an initial draft - but it came out pretty...
