Embracing Progress over Perfection: A Conversation with Ray Loewe on Success and Designing Your Life

Ever felt that striving for perfection is holding you back? It's time to reframe your perspective. In a rich conversation with our guest, the remarkable Ray Loewe, we put a spotlight on the power of progress. Ray, with his storied experience in the financial services business, shares his journey from striving for unattainable perfection to accepting progress as a true measure of success. This narrative isn't just ours, it's interwoven with lessons learned from failures, and the realization that progress, not perfection, sets us on the path to reaching our potential.

But there's more to life than just chasing targets. Inspired by Ray’s insights, we venture into the art of designing one's life. We challenge the myth that success is all about focusing on our weaknesses and instead, we explore the power of individuality, of crafting our destinies, and the importance of leaving an unfinished project for a lasting legacy. And as we navigate through these thought-provoking topics, we also touch base with sports, drawing inspiration from Michael Jordan's journey. We look at how luck, education, networking, and yes, even podcasting play a role in shaping our opportunities. So join us, as we embark on this enlightening journey of self-discovery and growth.

About Ray Loewe, The Luckiest Guy in the World:
A few years ago, Ray sold his 45-year-old financial advisory business to a team that he carefully chose to be caretakers of his clients, many of whom had become personal friends. This done, Ray immediately started a new business, one based on his strengths, skills, passions and what he felt is needed and important.

Ray is a two-time All American US Masters swimmer, looking forward to competing in his 80’s, 90’s and perhaps beyond. Ray and his wife of over 55 years, Sandy, have traveled the world together, visiting all seven continents, and 47 of the 50 states, and continue to travel!
