Welcome to Episode 269 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra.

In this episode, I talk about PATIENCE.

In this episode, David shares with you the ninth chapter: PATIENCE

Episode 269, focuses on the virtue of PATIENCE. From both Amateurs and Professionals their success hinges on their PATIENCE when things do not go as expected and when they do. In the episode, David shares some ideas on how to develop patience and how to use it to your advantage.

Professional Mindset Individuals know that their continued success relies heavily on being patient and exercising patience in all that they do especially when they have to play the LONG GAME.

Amateur Mindset Individual may be satisfied with occasional success and their level of patience certainly shows. Always remember and never forget: The Professional never allows occasional success to be the norm, to ALWAYS DRIVE TOWARDS SUCCESS is what the Professional Mindset Individuals will always work towards and believe in.

As we continue our journey from Amateur to Professional, thus we must continue to remind ourselves to CREATE WIN-WIN situations in all that you do. Start Strong! Stay Strong! Finish Strong! Be Strong! & Have Patience!

The Professional never allows occasional success to be the norm, to ALWAYS WIN is what the Professional Mindset Individuals will always work towards and believe in.

The Professional is still at it, still putting in the work all in the effort to create their own luck. To STACK THE ODDS in their favor.

In this episode, David shares with you the first part of the eighth chapter served in two parts: STACKING THE ODDS.

Episode 267, continues to focus on STACKING THE ODDS. Some say must fight a fair fight. Some say the only way to truly win is to do what it takes by having the ODDS stacked in your favor.

Isn't stacking odds just like cheating? Yes and No.
Yes, in that you are doing everything within your power to get that advantage over others. You wrote one book when they wrote zero. You ran a marathon while others run the half-marathon. You climb Mt. Everest while they can never get out of Base Camp. You put in the work to better yourself while they rest on their laurels.

NO. In that it is NOT your fault nor are you to blame when other choose to put in the barebones minimum and wonder why they lost.

Darwin's Survival of the Fittest or those that adapt to change are the ones that are going to win, to succeed.

Consistency is what make us better and through PRACTICE we get there faster. We get there faster and then we want more. To get more we have to continue to PRACTICE. However, to get more requires a new level of PRACTICING. To get more we now have to elevate our level of PRACTICE from AMATEUR to PROFESSIONAL.

In this series, David shares with you the second part of the fifth chapter served in two parts: FEEDBACK (part 2).
Episode 262, focuses on those that have a Professional Mindset and how Feedback is a critical component of all relationships of all types. This includes the relationship we have with ourselves. As Self-Leaders we are growing, learning, and experiencing life. This also means that as we put ourselves out there, we might not always be giving off the vibe we intend to or are presenting ourselves in a not so positive light. This is where feedback comes in.
For the Professional, feedback is how leaders grow. Feedback is also how leaders help others grow. In this episode, I mention how the Beatles and David Bowie used FEEDBACK to continuously improve, get better, and remain relevant.
The Professional also knows that feedback is part of life. That is why the Professional Mindset Level individual will hunt high and low for Feedback. They will take the feedback and use it to grow and getter. So, Get Better.
Whether you are an Amateur or Professional or on your way from the former to the latter, I invite you to listen to this 13-minute episode, as you will hear my perspective on FEEDBACK and how to apply it to YOUR life.
As we continue our journey from Amateur to Professional, thus we must continue to remind ourselves to CREATE WIN-WIN situations in all that you do. Start Strong! Stay Strong! Finish Strong! Be Strong!
