You Have to Earn the Life You Want | Sal Frisella & Will Compton

from The Burn Podcast by Ben Newman · host Ben Newman

What are YOU willing to build before anyone else believes it's going to work?In this throwback episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with Sal Frisella and Will Compton for a raw conversation about betting on yourself, doing the work before the results arrive, and having the courage to pursue something when there are absolutely no guarantees.Will shares the journey behind building Bussin' With The Boys—from taking a chance on an idea and a broken-down bus to creating one of the biggest platforms in sports media. Sal opens up about facing adversity, losing things he once allowed to define him, and rebuilding his life around a deeper sense of purpose.Different journeys. Same lesson.The life YOU want isn't earned when everything finally works out. It's earned during the seasons when nobody can see what YOU see—when the results aren't there, the recognition hasn't arrived, and YOU still choose to show up.Ben, Sal, and Will dive into the power of acting as if, why action often has to come before belief, and how discipline, relationships, mentorship, and service become more important as success grows.Because eventually, success becomes about more than what YOU can accomplish.It's about who YOU become.It's about who YOU bring with you.And it's about the impact YOU leave behind.This conversation is a reminder that sometimes YOU have to jump when you can afford to drown, trust the work, and become the person capable of carrying the opportunity you're asking for.Don't wait for the results to give YOU permission to believe. Do the work until the results have no choice but to follow.---------------------------------Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/KWQ0pZa7QDAListen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben’s latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet’s work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a messageOrder my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewmanConnect with me everywhere else:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693
