Are you building something that matters?

In this episode, Jeff and Shawn discuss:

  • Taking action when you run into roadblocks.
  • Giving back at every stage of life.
  • Finding a way through creative means to make it work.
  • Creating a brand people believe in.

Key Takeaways:

  • Just do something. You can’t just have the idea; you have to take action. It is not a one-time thought or one-time event.
  • You can’t hang love over the door and not give back.
  • You don’t need to do what everyone else is doing; you can do it the right way and build a trusted brand from the beginning.
  • Say “yes” first. You can always be giving, you can always be facilitating. Try to be involved.
  • Play along the way; give along the way.

"Mistakes are inevitable, and you cannot fear them, and you can't even wish them away, because from the mistakes come the big learnings, the things that matter more than even winning financially or what have you come from the mistakes. Every one of those lessons is rooted in some kind of mistake." — Shawn Nelson
