About this episode:
What if you could override fear, silence the inner critic that prevents you from taking a leap of faith, and live your true purpose? Today’s guest believes that the journey of getting out of your own way begins with a surprisingly simple question: what if it DID work?
That’s according to Omar Madrano, a highly successful entrepreneur and business coach to those who are ready to crush the fear that is keeping them from achieving their highest potential. Omar is also the author of the book, What If It Did Work?, and the host of the podcast of the same name.
Today, we talk to Omar about some of the obstacles that get in the way of our success and how to get over them. Tuning in, you’ll learn how to eliminate the worst-case-scenario thinking that plagues so many of us, prepare yourself for the inevitable sacrifices you’ll have to make along the way, and flip your thinking from “what if it all goes wrong?” to “what if it actually goes right?”
If you have a great idea but you haven’t launched a business yet because fear is holding you back, this is the episode for you!
Topics discussed in this episode:
- A quick disclaimer about Omar’s ‘tough love’ approach
- The fears that hold us back from pursuing our dreams
- How ‘someday’ is getting in your way
- Why entrepreneurship isn’t for everyone
- Putting in the work to find success
- How to prepare yourself for the inevitable dark times
- What it means to be a “vacation CEO”
