#62: They Never Get It: Overcoming Excus...

JAYSON WALLER
About this episode

Join Jayson Waller on the BAM Podcast (Business Attitude and Money) as he dives into a thought-provoking episode about the fundamental disconnect some people have when it comes to understanding life, putting in the necessary work, and embracing success. In this captivating discussion, Jayson emphasizes the prevalence of excuses and avoidance in our society, highlighting how individuals often hinder their own progress by seeking reasons to fail rather than finding ways to thrive.

Drawing from a powerful analogy of a donkey and a tiger arguing over the color of grass, Jayson sheds light on the futility of trying to change people's minds when they are set in their beliefs. He passionately urges listeners not to waste their energy and talent attempting to convince those who refuse to "get it" or acknowledge the truth. Instead, he encourages embracing a mindset of focusing on personal growth, striving for excellence, and overcoming adversity.

Jayson doesn't shy away from addressing the negativity and criticisms that often accompany success. He exposes the envy and judgment of average individuals who lack the drive and determination to pursue greatness themselves. With raw honesty and personal experience, he shares his journey of building successful companies, facing setbacks, and rebuilding from rock bottom. Through it all, Jayson stresses the importance of staying focused, avoiding excuses, and seeking reasons to triumph.

Don't miss this inspiring episode as Jayson Waller challenges listeners to rise above mediocrity, break free from the confines of average thinking, and create a path to extraordinary success. Tune in and discover how to overcome obstacles, silence the naysayers, and unleash your full potential.

HIGHLIGHTS

"Don't waste your God-given energy and talent trying to convince donkeys of what the f*** the grass color is. If they're not your people, move on because they don't get it."

"Average people will never be extraordinary. Average people will never do anything great. They're just not capable of doing it. They're just too lazy. They find excuses."

"Find reasons to be successful. Find reasons to win. Find reasons to overcome adversity. You've got to stay focused and not make excuses."
