#32: Steven Pemberton – From Trauma to Triumph, Emotional Detachment, Faith & Free Will in the Entrepreneur's Life
The Josh Boone Show
The Pitfall of Impressing Others with Material Possessions
The speaker shares their experience of wanting to prove themselves and impress others by showing that they don't need certain things like connections or schooling to succeed. This led to poor financial decisions, such as buying an expensive truck, in an attempt to showcase success. However, the speaker realizes that trying to impress others actually makes one look bad and limits their potential for growth. They learn that in order to go further and faster in business, it's important to align with others and seek guidance from mentors or coaches. The speaker acknowledges that their toxic view of being a solopreneur hindered their progress. It wasn't until facing bankruptcy that they realized there might be a better way to succeed. They attribute these tendencies to childhood experiences and reflect on distinguishing their own thoughts from those influenced by their upbringing.
