Here is the school of podcasting that gave me my podcasting skills. It took me from knowing nothing, to launching with simple and easy-to-follow videos and detailed action plans. How To Build An Engaged Audience (Weekly Live Webinar)

Special thanks for this show goes out to Joel Boggess of the ReLaunch podcast. I was introduced to Kimanzi after Joel interviewed me for the The ReLaunch Show. Kimanzi was also a guest on The ReLaunch show. Listen to episode #55 (How He Doubled His Income: Kimanzi Constable)! (After listening to The ReLaunch Show, give them some great feedback on iTunes, okay? That is one of the most important acts you can do for a podcaster.)
Kimanzi’s books are all avaiable on Amazon.
Kimanzi also recommends “48 days to the Work You Love”, by Dan Miller.
Also mentioned on the show was John Lee Dumas and his podcast, Entrepreneur On Fire. (John’s interview will be released on August 4th!)
Almost everyone is a “regular” person. But some people are “extraordinary.” Kara Counard is regular, too, but she acts “as if” she is actually “extraordinary.”
We can all act “as if” we are successful and extraordinary. It is a choice. But in all honesty, it can be a difficult choice. And most people don’t try.
I hope that you are one of the people who will try to act extraordinary.
Kara never sits still. She was working as a bartender, a Starbucks barrista, an appraisal service, a figure model for several art schools, and was a free-lance graphic design artist, all at the same time. Photography was not part of her life plan. She thought starting an Etsy store was her future. But she listened to her customers and in the process created a business–all because she filled the needs of her customers. She gave them what they wanted!
It’s not always the person who was naturally gifted who wins. It’s not always the person with the best tools. Sometimes it is the person who refuses to quit, who faces the challenges and never surrenders.
But you also need to make sure that you are truly making progress. If you aren’t making any progress, maybe then you need to step back, critically assess your plan and make the necessary changes.
A teenager gets off the train in New York City, and as he leaves the station carrying his violin, he spots a police officer. Walking up to him, he asks, “How do I get to Carnegie Hall?”
Without missing a beat, the officers says, “Practice, son, practice!”
Kelly Bucheger doesn’t live in New York City, but rather Buffalo, NY and he shows why success happens when you find your calling in ife and then never let anything become an obstacle in your path. He is a jazz saxaphonist and he shares how he found success in the Twin Cities of Minnesota, then left and moved to Buffalo where he knew no one, and rebuilt a successful career in performance and composing.
And then, if you still don’t succeed, then what? Do you keep trying the same thing? I hope not. If it didn’t work the first three times, why do you think the fourth will be different.
Knowing when to keep going and when to pivot to a new direction is the key to success. Let’s talk about how to make that decision.
