Launching Out!

Jamie Newman started the podcast "Your Best Manager" to fulfill his passion in developing better managers. Your Best Manager features interviews with inspiring Senior Managers and Leader Experts as well as offering practical advice for New Managers. When you're wanting to quit, or looking for that new opportunity, the confirmation you're looking for might not be where you expect. The answer might be in recognizing that the incredible opportunities lie beyond what you can currently see.

Have you ever struggled with productivity, discipline and focus? Being busy but feeling like you don't have anything to show for it is not fun. Listen in as we discuss these three topics and a great new tool from John Lee Dumas that can help us master all three!

Success is not built over-night. Success is the baby steps you take each and every day which, when compounded, appear as success. Anne-Marie, aka the Soap Queen, tells us about her "delusional optimism in myself and the possibilities" that pushed her to achieve what is now a successful soap making business. Whether you are looking for support, waiting for the right time, or trapped by your own fears- this episode will give you the breakdown on where to start in both crafting and achieving those goals.

Here on the Launching Out! Podcast we want our listeners to be challenged to take the next step towards their goals and embrace the unknown. In this episode with Bob Pritchett, Co-founder of Logos Research Systems, Inc, he triggers a soft spot in all of us: the fear of the unknown. Pritchett tells us to "Embrace your ignorance and incompetence…what you don't know isn't an obstacle, its an opportunity." Bob Pritchett worked at Microsoft when he began taking his hobby and transforming it into what has become a successful corporation. We all feel like imposters when we start on something new, but that's a great place to be, it means you're growing and moving forward.

We're all scared of something, and while that fear seems very real, nothing awesome ever happens inside of your comfort zone! Spend a few minutes being encouraged that even when you're scared, its important to go for it anyway! Don't let fear paralyze you and prevent you from taking the next step!
