E242: “Re-Inventing the Meaning of Success” – Sammy Warrayat Interview

Sammy Warrayat, founder of The Financezilla brand and host of the Successful Millennials podcast, shares his thoughts on how he became a successful entrepreneur so young. In his 20s, he planned to exit the corporate world by the age of 30, and was able to achieve that goal partly by constantly asking himself “what if?” What if he didn’t let imposter syndrome get in the way of trying new things? What if he approached success as a mindset, and not as an endpoint in a journey? By combining his analytical nature with his intuition about business, Sammy has been able to take measured risks in his career and see them pay off. He aims to help other millennials to accomplish the same thing. KEY TAKEAWAYS Routine equals discipline. If you are disciplined about the goals you have for yourself, you will achieve results. There are five tenets to success: physical and mental health, money, passion for one’s career, relationships, and overall happiness. Warrayat concentrates on his age range (24-32) because he thinks that subset of millennials is ignored by many self-development coaches. If you focus on improving your “areas of weakness”, you will see faster overall improvement in both your career and personal development. BEST MOMENTS “What topic can I narrow down…that I feel I can provide (consistent) value on?” “My fear is one thing, but my desire to help even one person supersedes that.” “One of the best things about social media is seeing that there is a lot more (than the typical 9-5) out there. Financial freedom is the new goal.” “If you chase your passion in one area, all of a sudden it opens the doors of possibilities in other areas of your life.” ABOUT THE GUEST Sammy Warrayat is a podcaster and entrepreneur based in the state of Georgia, in the U.S. After spending over five years in the corporate world where he was a statistics analyst, he knew he wanted a career that was more challenging, and where he could also inspire others to become more independent. His talent for numbers made him a natural at day trading, which led him to financial consulting and coaching. Sammy considers his success a direct result of discipline and ability to thrive under pressure, and his personal goal of continuously improving all areas of his life. When he has any spare time, you might find him travelling, playing basketball, or reading self-development books.
