JAYSON WALLER UNLEASHED

Today on the show Jayson talks about the two options in life going forward or giving up. He talks about his first year starting PowerHome Solar, how much he had to sacrifice to achieve his dream, how much he was willing to put into himself and his company in order to succeed. Jayson talks about how if you start quitting on yourself, there is no chance that you will come back to it. You’ll have the “what ifs” that will slowly eat away at you, put in the effort and endure the pain now, and whether you fail or succeed you’ll always know that you did everything you could possibly do to succeed!   Links:    Follow True Underdog on IG: www.instagram.com/true_underdog Reach out to Jayson directly at jayson@trueunderdog.com Follow Jayson on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jayson-waller-/ Follow Jayson on Instagram: www.instagram.com/jaysonwallerbam Check out our website to meet the team, view show notes and transcripts: www.trueunderdog.com   Timestamps:   1:00 - Hitting That Stop Sign 1:42 - Struggling Year One of PowerHome Solar 3:49 - If You Quit, It Will NEVER Happen 5:21 - Saw the Light at the End of the Tunnel 7:59 - Giving Everything to the Business 10:26 - Putting in 100% Effort 12:18 - You Can’t Defeat Yourself 14:09 - Building a Team That Doesn’t Quit Learn more about your ad choices.

Today on the show Jayson is talking about the three categories of people, and why the last two are toxic to be around. You have the people that are excited for you and stick around as your supporters, these are the ones you need to keep around and have a relationship with.  The second category, being the people who are intimidated by  and don’t want to speak up or talk about you, these people are scared, they can’t achieve what you have, and they don’t like it. The third category are the haters, the ones who are so jealous of your success that they need to talk crap about you behind your back. These people can fuel you if you have the right perspective, let their jealousies and hatred motivate you to keep going. We’ve all been in these categories, it’s up to you to stay in the first category and keep the people around you that are going to lift you up.   Links:    Follow True Underdog on IG: www.instagram.com/true_underdog Reach out to Jayson directly at jayson@trueunderdog.com Follow Jayson on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jayson-waller-/ Follow Jayson on Instagram: www.instagram.com/jaysonwallerbam Check out our website to meet the team, view show notes and transcripts: www.trueunderdog.com   Timestamps:   0:36 - Rule #1 F*ck the Haters 1:11 - First Category of People - Excited 1:43 - Second Category of People - Intimidated 3:04 - Third Category of People - Haters 5:01 - We’ve All Been in Every Category at Some Point 7:02 - Why Haters Suck 10:02 - The Goal is to Get to Category One Learn more about your ad choices.

Today on the show Jayson is talking with John LeBlanc about coaching and how effective it can be if you treat it correctly. It can be difficult and uncomfortable to be told how to improve, especially if you’ve been set in your ways for a long time, but Jayson is trying and growing from his CEO coach, learning what he does well and what he needs to improve on. Jayson and John talk about how a coach can be a teacher, a motivator, and a cheerleader all in one. Finding the right coach for you is important as well, it’s ok to disagree with some of the teachings of your coach, but if you fundamentally disagree with almost everything they are saying, it might be time to look for a new one. Coaching is vital to achieving your goals in both business and personally, challenge yourself by finding the right coach for you!   Links:    Follow True Underdog on IG: www.instagram.com/true_underdog Reach out to Jayson directly at jayson@trueunderdog.com Follow Jayson on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jayson-waller-/ Follow Jayson on Instagram: www.instagram.com/jaysonwallerbam Check out our website to meet the team, view show notes and transcripts: www.trueunderdog.com   Timestamps:   4:21 - Learning the Skill of Being Coached 8:40 - Getting Thrown Out While Coaching Girls Softball 14:44 - The Struggle Allows You to Grow 18:02 - Accepting Coaching Makes You Stronger 19:56 - Coaching Can Make You Uncomfortable 24:34 - Always Looking to Learn Learn more about your ad choices.
