“The truth that I've found with myself, but also very successful people that I've been exposed to, is the one rule they don't want us to all know. And that is they're all making it up as they go along.”Success is not a straight path. Chasing down a dream will be fraught with rejection, loss, and pain. The key to achieving success is to be resilient and creative. Continue to take steps in the dark, not knowing that the path is there. Don’t let perfectionism hold you back. And ask for help. This is the advice of two time Emmy Award–winning talk show host, motivational speaker, and entrepreneur, Mario Armstrong. He risked everything to follow his passion and made a hit TV show out of creative solutions and the unwillingness to settle. About the Guest:Mario Armstrong is an Emmy award-winning American radio and television talk show host, entrepreneur, podcaster, and public speaker. His web television series, Never Settle, provides the advice and tools to help others hustle mindfully to pursue their passions. He is also the Digital Lifestyle Expert® on NBC’s TODAY Show, CNN, NPR, and more.

“What it means to have a practice is that you show up tomorrow even if it didn’t work today.”That is what Seth Godin, entrepreneur, best-selling author, guru, and marketing hall of famer, has to say about The Practice, his methodology on finding your true voice. The Practice is not about making art, writing a book, or working as a manager. It is about being an artist, a writer, and a leader. What is it that separates those who have creative hobbies and those who fully embrace their creativity? It is the work and not the outcome. It is finding and listening to the uninhibited inner genius. It is being generous and it is moving forward without guarantees. And it is about giving yourself the grace and forgiveness to be unsure, to feel like an imposter, and to fail. Because once you start The Practice, it doesn’t become easier, it becomes normal. About the Guest:Seth Godin is an author, entrepreneur and most of all, a teacher. In addition to launching one of the most popular blogs in the world, he has written 19 best-selling books, including The Dip, Linchpin, Purple Cow, Tribes, and What To Do When It's Your Turn (And It's Always Your Turn). By focusing on everything from effective marketing and leadership, to the spread of ideas and change, Seth has been able to motivate and inspire countless people around the world. In 2013, Seth was one of just three professionals inducted into the Direct Marketing Hall of Fame. In an astonishing turn of events, in May 2018, he was inducted into the Marketing Hall of Fame as well. He might be the only person in both.About The Practice:Seth Godin’s new book launches today, November 3rd, 2020.This elegant little book will inspire artists, writers, and entrepreneurs to stretch and commit to putting their best work out into the world. Creative work doesn't come with a guarantee. But there is a pattern to who succeeds and who doesn't. And engaging in the consistent practice of its pursuit is the best way forward.The Practice will help you get unstuck and find the courage to make and share creative work. Godin insists that writer's block is a myth, that consistency is far more important than authenticity, and that experiencing the imposter syndrome is a sign that you're a well-adjusted human. Most of all, he shows you what it takes to turn your passion from a private distraction to a productive contribution, the one you've been seeking to share all along.With this book as your guide, you'll learn to dance with your fear. To take the risks worth taking. And to embrace the empathy required to make work that contributes with authenticity and joy.Finding Seth Godin: Buy his book: The PracticeWebsite: https://www.sethgodin.com/ Blog: https://seths.blog/ Twitter: @ThisIsSethsBlog Listen to his podcast: Akimbo: A Podcast from Seth GodinCheck out his Akimbo Workshops: https://www.akimbo.com/ To inquire about my coaching program opportunity visit https://mentorship.heathermonahan.com/ Review this podcast on Apple Podcast using this LINK and when you DM me the screen shot, I buy you my $299 video course as a thank you! My book Confidence Creator is available now! get it right HEREIf you are looking for more tips you can download my free E-book at my website and thank you! https://heathermonahan.com *If you'd like to ask a question and be featured during the wrap up segment of Creating Confidence, contact Heather Monahan directly through her website and don’t forget to subscribe to the mailing list so you don’t skip a beat to all things Confidence Creating! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
