I am officially dropping the Career Pivot Masterclass this week. Right now, there are people whose jobs are being replaced by automation, and because of the pandemic, more people have had the time to think about what they actually want out of their lives. If anything good has come from COVID, it is that it forced us to slow down. Maybe you are feeling unfulfilled with work, or you are just ready to move on and start something new altogether. Your next move is found in developing skills. And this is the most opportune time to actually make a career move, because everyone else is standing back. The methodology of this masterclass is what I have used to build multiple businesses and work in several different industries. This week, I am opening the vault and letting you have access to some closely held gems. The masterclass is five days of value. You will be able to put this stuff into action and get results. If you want to know the details of what I am going to be talking about over the next five days, then listen to this episode. Resources MentionedCareer Pivot Masterclass Hosted on Acast.

I have an opportunity for you, and a really important question...What would happen if Quentin Tarantino sat you down and asked you to write the script for him and he would be the hero?

I wanted to share a really cool article that inspired me. I hope it can help you become mindful about how you show up in the world. It's about Kevin Hart. If you haven't already read his book, you should go do that. He started his career as a comedian when he graduated from high school. He was doing gigs at The Laugh House comedy club in Philadelphia, doing whatever he could to run with people on the comedy scene. He was aggressive, and he did a lot of impersonations in his comedy. But he was missing the key to making connections in his career. Listen now to learn what he was missing...

"You have to figure out what your own aptitudes are. If you play games where other people have the aptitudes and you don't, you are going to lose." - Charlie Munger If you don't know Charlie, let me introduce you to him. He's the guy who helped Warren Buffet get stupid rich. I bet you know Warren Buffet. I want to share a quote from Charlie Munger with you, because I want you to understand what nobody is telling you. Everyone is telling you that you can be anything you want to be, and I am not saying that's not true. What is more true is knowing your aptitudes. Know what you are good at and what you are not good at. When you know your skills you stay in your lane, and when you stay in your lane you can double down on what you are good at. Why would you try to be a professional golfer if you can't even play mini-golf? Doubling down on your skills is they key to being successful in life.

If you are ever going to put yourself out there, one of the key things you will need is confidence. You can be confident in one area of your life, and lack confidence in others. So I am sharing 11 pillars that can help you build your confidence. Trusting yourself - most people don’t trust themselves, they go against their desire and nature. Society also does a great job at reinforcing this lack of trust. Knowing thyself - along with not trusting, many of us have not a clue what we’re great at, how we learn, or our bodies. Not letting your past determine who you are today - Confident people know they can’t change their past but they don’t have to live in itSaying No - confidence people will flat out tell you no without fear of rejection or feeling like they “owe you one”Focus - they don’t waste time on things that aren’t the main thing. Playing to win, not just playing not to lose - Kobe never walked into a game thinking how can I just get through this one. The Mamba Mentality is total domination. All or nothing Practice the 3 mindsets - The abundance mindset, resilience mindset, and growth mindset are what they live by Makes health a priority - Physical and mental health aren’t just something that’s put in the back burner, it’s numero unoAsk for what they want / what they’re worth - It seems like we magically get what we want but the truth is we simply ask and aren’t ok with anything less than what we deserve Welcomes feedback - Confident people aren’t afraid to get direct feedback on their work, performance, etc., they actually welcome it but not from critics or haters Asks/gets help where needed - Believe it or not, confident people still need help and they aren’t afraid to ask for it eitherLinks A brief hisory of my story part 1A brief hisory of my story part 27 Laws of Mindful Living BookJoin The My Free Skills Community Hosted on Acast.

If you haven't listened to last week's episode, go back and do that now, because this is a continuation of that episode, where I tell my story and share how I got to where I am now.After leaving my job, I started an entertainment company with two of my friends. After doing that for a while, I felt inspired to build a business online, so I could do some more traveling. That is how I discovered podcasting. As I was working on getting started with podcasting, I was consulting on events on a freelance basis to make some money, and I was reminded that I didn't like to organize events. I decided to focus on podcasting, because I felt that it was going to be the next big thing. Podcasting started to take off with me, and it gave me a platform to build relationships. I struggled a lot starting my podcast business, but it gave me the opportunity to travel again, so I lived in Guatemala for a month, got into a relationship, and traveled around for a while. I found myself wondering what the point of was of everything I was doing. I returned home and did a few odd jobs. As soon as I found a client that would pay my expenses, I moved to Columbia, and I jumped into building a startup with a friend. The startup went south, and I lost all self confidence. I ran out of money and had to come back home. I felt like a complete loser, and I started the process of rebuilding. This was the point where I decided to start working on my book, but it was difficult to be creative when I was in survival mode. Once I got my business up and running again, I went to Thailand for a month. I knew that I was going to be moving to New York to work on a startup, so I wanted to enjoy a month in Thailand. When I got back to the USA, I moved to New York to work for a tech startup.Next, I want to work on being of more service to others. The biggest thing I can help people with is understanding the importance of learning as many skills as possible. Right now, due to the state of the world, most of us only have time. There is a lot of down time, and there are going to be people who come out of this further ahead, because they made use of that time. I want to help people help themselves by acquiring skills that can serve themselves and their community.What I learned... Most people don't hit their stride until their late 30sResilience is extremely importantThe market will always give you feedbackBeing a starving artist isn't great. You need to be thriving in order to be creative.Links A brief hisory of my story part 1 https://www.iwannabefamous.co/podcasts/a-brief-history-of-my-storyA brief hisory of my story part 2https://www.iwannabefamous.co/podcasts/a-brief-history-of-my-story-part-27 Laws of Mindful Living Book https://the7lawsofmindfulliving.comJoin The My Free Skills Community http://www.skillsfam.com Hosted on Acast.
