Ep 26 Stay Gritty Baby #entrepreneurialtip

Welcome everyone to the 26th episode of Professor P's Podcast. This year, once a month, I will be bringing you entrepreneurial tips. The topic for this show is GRIT, which is important in the foundation of being an EMPOWERED entrepreneur but also to live the EMPOWERED life.

You are going to need paper and pen for this episode and honestly for most to all of my episodes you will always want to keep paper and pen. I will share several stories. All of them should give you encouragement and inspire you. One of the stories I just shared with my students this past week.

Deshauna Barber - American model Ms. USA 2016. She suffered from some low self-esteem. A woman found her in Target and told her that she could be the next Ms. USA. She started competing in the state pageants. She tried for six years in a row and was ready to give up “it is failing epically”. Leslie told her to keep trying. Finally in her seventh year she won the title of Ms. USA and life changed dramatically. In the words of Leslie “If not you, then who”. “At times our purpose drops in our laps as if heaven threw it by accident. Do not fear failure. But please be terrified of regret. Giving up is the birth of regret. There will be hundreds of moments of people telling you no. You will hear more no’s than yeses in your lifetime. We will fail and fail a lot.

Don’t be afraid of no’s be afraid of a yes that you have prematurely destroyed because you have decided to quit before the clock strikes 12. You have rights to your no and your YES is undeniable. Your yes is far more powerful and purposeful than any no you will ever receive.

Wisdom is gained through experiences. Failure is one of the greatest producers of wisdom. Wisdom is attracted to and accessible to all. When wisdom speaks it is true. Wisdom produces durable revenue. To have the talent of wisdom you must listen to it. The art and power of listening.

What have you accepted that you can alter if you negotiate from a different perspective?

So, if you are ready to be inspired, encouraged, and gain some knowledge that will do you well in entrepreneurship and in life, then you need to jump into this episode and let me know your thoughts.
