What identifies you? Is it your degree? Your job? Sometimes our greatest achievements and proudest moments can become pigeonholes and limiters of our potential. 

Welcome back to another solo episode of The Tactical Leader! Today I'm sharing my takeaways from last Monday’s episode with Taylor Cu. Taylor is one of those guys that just blows me away. His personal mantra, “No one will outwork me,” is evident in the content he puts out and the empire he’s building for himself.

[03:11 - 08:57] My Takeaways

• How Taylor has been able to pivot and shift through transitions
• He not just confined to one profession or passion, instead he's aligning himself, his brand, and his identity across everything he's doing 
• Taylor doesn’t let what he does pigeonhole him 
• Optimum vulnerability
• Boxing ourselves into what we do
• Our job description is not our identifier 

[08:58 - 10:42] Closing Segment

• What to expect this Friday with Taylor Cu
• Coming back with tactics focused on communication, social media, and action steps attached to aligning who you are as a younger person, and communicating that through a new age platform like social media

Key Quote/s: 

“He's all of these things where he's aligning himself his brand, his identity across everything he's doing.” - Zack Knight 

“What I like about Taylor is that he went to college, right? But he didn't let that pigeonhole him. He’s a mechanical engineer, but he didn't let that pigeonhole him. With everything he's doing, I really took away the true authentic self that we can apply to situations.” - Zack Knight  

“I have these identities. And I am so guilty of focusing on them and never thinking about if I truly am beyond those labels that I put on myself.” - Zack Knight
