Episode 323: Nobody Told Me My Ambitions Would Get Embarrassingly Huge When I Quit Drinking
What happens when your ambitions outgrow your current life? A few months after going alcohol-free, I was sitting at a park, on my lunch break from my day job, reading a Jack Canfield book. All of a sudden I found myself writing down the most outrageous goals.
Next fall I’ll tour the US on my book tour. I want to make millions of dollars. I want to be a top speaker. I had no social media presence, no personal brand at the time. And yet, I was so freaking audacious.
This episode is about the phenomenon of having embarrassingly huge ambitions after going alcohol-free, including four things I wish I knew when I was first starting Euphoric.
IN THIS EPISODE:
The secret side effect of ditching alcohol and my thoughts on quality vs. quantity
The value of surrounding yourself with other enormously ambitious people
What you need to be doing online to create dream opportunities, money, and influence
Why being willing to embarrass yourself is going to set you apart from the crowd
The $500 mistake that cost me a year of revenue (and what I’d do instead)
REFLECTION QUESTION
What are the goals you secretly want… but feel almost embarrassed to say out loud?
“In my social circle and the different people I would talk to, I felt like the odd one out. Not necessarily because I wasn't drinking anymore, but because instead of settling for this mediocre life, all of a sudden, I had such a big head. I was ready to go after such big goals and dreams. And it's almost as if I couldn't relate to people who didn't really understand that.”
“Working hard for something we don't care about is called stress. Working hard for something we love is called passion. That just hits home for me, especially for everything I've built. I work really, really hard. I put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into it. It's been really, really frustrating. It's been really, really rewarding. But I love it. I love it so much. You couldn't take this away from me if you tried.”
