Here’s an insane quote from this episode that you’ll love.“Most people don't take the action they need to take to become the person they're intended to become because they are afraid of something.They're afraid of fear, they're afraid of the fear of failure, the fear of how people are going to perceive them if they fail, the fear of how people are gonna perceive them when they're starting out and they suck and they're cringey, they're afraid of the fear of rejection.All of those things are a self-imposed limit that prevent you from becoming the person that God intends you to be.If you genuinely care about making the world a better place, about helping other people, you owe it to yourself, your family, your community, to overcome those fears, conquer those obstacles, and be a better version of yourself every single day. And if you can conquer those fears, you take action, and if you're always taking action eventually you will win.The first step is just overcoming your fear.”Parker McCumber - Business Coach, Serial Entrepreneurhttps://www.parkermccumber.com/https://www.instagram.com/therealparkermccumber/How The Hell Are You Doing This?
