S4E15: Real & Raw - The Art Of Making Things Happen With Steve Sims


Listen Later

You don’t grow from success. You grow from failure.

When we fail we’re discovering what doesn’t work, and we are taught what not to do in the future.

If you’re ready to hear more about letting go, moving on, and learning from failure, listen to episode 15.

My conversation with Steve Sims was powerful and inspirational. The energy and excitement he brings is absolutely contagious, and I loved every minute of it! Steve Sims is the founder and CEO of the luxury concierge service Bluefish. In 2017, he published a book, “Bluefishing: The Art of Making Things Happen.”

Steve shares with me more about himself, what he’s been up to, and how things are going with his consulting and coaching company. Steve tells me about the powerful moment in his life at age 15, where he saw the vision of his life. He talks about the effect that it made on his choices from that moment, and how he was ultimately able to break the cycle. He now helps others break the cycle by identifying their failures, keep moving, and take action on what they’ve learned from those failures.

We break down the key points in Steve’s book, “Bluefishing: The Art Of Making Things Happen”. I read this book prior to having our conversation, and was absolutely blown away and honestly had wished I would have read it 10, even 20 years sooner. One of my top three values that’s also discussed in the book is initiative, so I could really relate in terms of taking action.

We discuss finding your passion, motivation and ignorance, and the importance of not listening to naysayers, negative self talk and sabotage. We talk about the benefits of being comfortable in uncomfortable situations, as well as seeing the silver lining in all situations.

Steve and I share our breaking and turning point moments in life where we felt like we gave into our negative self talk, focused on the wrong things, and in a sense “sold out”. It was great to connect and relate to him on this growing experience in my own life.

I love Steve’s analogies and insights. I’ve taken away so much value and insight that i'll be implementing on my own path to building my good life. As Steve said, now is a beautiful time to focus on the most greatest asset you’ll ever have which is you. So when you’re ready , tune into episode 15.
