JAYSON WALLER UNLEASHED

Today on the show we’re talking with Barry Sanders about his esteemed football career, winning the heisman, breaking records, and being inducted into the Hall of Fame. Barry talks about how he is always raising his own bar, there is never a “top”, you’re always working, and grinding to achieve your goals. Even as a young kid Barry was consumed by football, he would watch the games every week, go out and throw the ball around, and even play his electronic football games. It was no surprise that he would go on to be one of the greatest players of all time. Barry grew up with 10 siblings, he learned how to compete with his brothers at a young age, that taught him to keep pushing himself. Barry always loved what he did and he saw success when the team succeeded, he could have had the all time rushing record in his rookie season, but he let the guys who didn’t get to play often in. He never had to prove anything to anyone but himself. Staying in the moment and not looking too far ahead has been Barry’s motto his whole life. He played with guys in high school who thought they were going to the NFL. Barry knew that he had to take things one step at a time, and become the best without losing focus on where he was.   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 Apply for a chance to receive a $10,000 business grant: https://trueunderdog.com/underdog-achievers-program/   Timestamps:   1:50 - Barry Sanders’ Family Life 3:27 - Struggles in Life 7:35 - Developing a Competitive Drive 9:40 - Barry’s Mentors 13:01 - Pivotal Moments in Life 15:49 - Treating Mistakes as Lessons 18:36 - Getting Recruited 24:18 - Playing College Football as a Freshman 28:45 - Learning From Successful Players 31:07 - Biggest Accomplishments in Football 34:51 - Getting Recognized for Working Hard 37:21 - Selflessness 40:14 - Using Teamwork to Succeed 41:28 - Coaches 44:39 - Bringing out Motivation 45:53 - Difficulty of Getting Into the NFL 50:18 - Stay in the Moment 52:19 - You are What You Do Everyday 55:02 - Raising Your Own Bar 58:15 - Hall of Fame 1:01:10 - Post Football 1:05:18 - Players Define the Game Learn more about your ad choices.

Many businesses and entrepreneurs fail when starting up because they don’t have a proper plan in place. Not just something to get you started, but a plan for the next 8 or 9 years down the road. Jayson, Jeff, Bryan and Jeff talk about looking ahead, and creating an action plan on how to get there, performing that plan every day. The business world moves very fast, that’s why getting complacent in business is like going backwards. If you’re not working to improve your business every single day, other people will be doing that work, and they will surpass you. As Wayne Gretzky once said, “Go where the puck will be, not where it is”. Staying comfortable means you’re not growing, it means you aren’t trying new things and learning from mistakes and successes! You need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable! Experience failure, and learn from those lessons.   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 John on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-leblanc-333a3b14 Follow Jayson on Instagram: www.instagram.com/jaysonwallerbam Check out our website to meet the team, view show notes and transcripts: www.trueunderdog.com   Jeff F’s Links:   Jeff F’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffrey-fratarcangeli-a2996394 Jeff F’s Website: http://fratarcangeliwealth.com/   Jeff Sloan’s Links:   Jeff Sloan’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeff-sloan-996a05163 Jeff Sloan’s Website: https://startupnation.com/   Brian’s Links:   Brian’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-elias-6790043a/ Brian’s Website: https://www.brianelias.com/   Timestamps:   1:29 - Brian Elias’s Story 3:11 - Jeff Fratercangeli’s Story 5:26 - Jeff Sloan’s Story 7:15 - Opportunities 11:05 - Get Uncomfortable 14:46 - Confidence 17:01 - Find Your Why 20:29 - Hard Work Wins 24:04 - Company Culture 28:08 - Learning From Wisdom 30:31 - Closing Thoughts Learn more about your ad choices.
