00:00:00:00 - 00:00:07:15 Unknown Welcome to fuel your dry. 00:00:07:15 - 00:00:31:21 Unknown Guys, what is going on? Welcome to Fuel your Drive. I am your host, Josh York, and we have a great episode in store for you today. A little housekeeping before we start, guys, please like, share, subscribe. Leave a review a rating. It means the world to me. I greatly appreciate it. Today I want to talk about risks. And, I actually put together a whole document here of what I want to talk about because 00:00:31:21 - 00:00:34:01 Unknown I would never be where I am today without risks. 00:00:34:01 - 00:00:50:19 Unknown And if you want to level up, get to the next level, you know, increase revenue in your business, have more opportunities, you know, and have that confidence that is earned through risk to be able to do bigger and better things, you have to take risks. 00:00:50:19 - 00:00:54:15 Unknown Okay. So the first thing we're going to start out with is understanding that 00:00:54:15 - 00:01:03:03 Unknown taking risks is hands down like it's essential for growth, success and reaching your full potential. 00:01:03:05 - 00:01:20:06 Unknown You have to understand something. The majority of people are not willing to take risks because they're scared. They're afraid something is going to happen. They're afraid is not going to work out. Let me tell you something. It always works out. And let me tell you something else. If you believe in yourself and believe in what you're doing, it doesn't matter. 00:01:20:08 - 00:01:40:20 Unknown Because no matter what risk you take, it will work out. But it starts with the belief. And then you start to surround yourself with the people that you're going to do this with. They have to believe too. And if they don't believe in you as the leader and you're taking those risks, they're not going to they're not going to feel comfortable in, you know, taking a risk to come and be part of your company. 00:01:41:02 - 00:01:42:20 Unknown So number one, 00:01:42:20 - 00:02:07:19 Unknown growth comes from discomfort okay. Everyone in the world likes to play it safe. When you play it safe, you stay in the same place. When you take risks. It forced you to get out of your comfort zone. And that is where the real growth happens. And that's on different levels mentally, physically, emotionally. Opportunities will never, ever come to those who wait. 00:02:08:00 - 00:02:27:14 Unknown The action takers are the money makers. Okay, you got to always be impatient with action and you have to be patient with results. But you want big rewards. Well, fortune favors the bold, and that comes from making bold moves. Most people, as I've talked about in the past, are waiting for the perfect time sun to be shining. It's supposed to be amazing out. 00:02:27:14 - 00:02:37:08 Unknown Birds are chirping. No, taking calculated risk is putting you in the position to seize the most amazing opportunities, and you have to make sure you don't wait. 00:02:39:03 - 00:02:59:01 Unknown I have failed much more than I have won, okay? And failing is also a part of winning. Failing is a lesson. It's not a loss. It teaches you and every risk that you know, that obviously carries the possibility of failure is always going to carry a possibility of it. 00:02:59:03 - 00:03:21:11 Unknown But so what if you fail? You have to be understanding. You have to understand. You have to be willing to fail. And failure will teach you what doesn't work. And that's how you learn from those failures. And you don't make that mistake again. The most successful people in the world have failed time after time after time, and what separates them from the people who do not succeed is they don't stop. 00:03:21:11 - 00:03:22:11 Unknown They don't quit. 00:03:24:02 - 00:03:53:20 Unknown Next one is that confidence and resilience. It's build is built through risk taking. The more risks you take, the more you overcome the challenges each time. Like I talk about counting that those hands, you lose your mindset. Okay? You become stronger, you become more confident, and you develop the ability to handle more adversity. Right. And that's going to also help in making future obstacles much easier for you to navigate around. 00:03:54:14 - 00:03:56:10 Unknown But but listen, here's the bottom line 00:03:56:10 - 00:04:12:15 Unknown success requires bold action. And I talk about action all the time, and you will never build anything great or never have a fantastic career or relationship or anything. If you don't take risks, playing it safe is always going to lead to the just a normal life. You don't want to live a normal life. 00:04:12:19 - 00:04:23:00 Unknown You don't want to be normal. Nothing great is normal. Okay? Nothing. Risk takers become the leaders in this world, the innovators in the game changers. So you have to be willing to take that risk 00:04:23:00 - 00:04:27:19 Unknown and let me tell you, and this is what I'm going to I'm going to leave off here. 00:04:27:19 - 00:04:33:21 Unknown Regret is worse than failure. The pain of just sitting around saying, what if? 00:04:33:22 - 00:04:50:01 Unknown What if you know what I can't stand? I can't stand when I tell people about what I do for a living. And it's, you know, I thought about that. I was going to do that, but you didn't. But you did it because you sat around wondering. It's about action, right? And taking those risks ensures you will live a life without no regrets. 00:04:50:01 - 00:05:04:03 Unknown Because it will always work out. And at the end of the day, it's about calculated risks, not reckless ones. Prepare right, assess and take action. That's how you're going to win. That is the only way you're going to win. 00:05:04:03 - 00:05:10:08 Unknown So I hope this is helpful. I don't want to sit here and and you know, and dive too deep and get into too much more information. 00:05:10:08 - 00:05:22:23 Unknown I like to keep it short and sweet. I want to provide value. And I hope I did that today. Guys, have a fantastic day. Make sure you get out there, take risks, keep moving the needle until next time. Fuel your drive. See you. 00:05:23:10 - 00:05:38:15 Unknown Login. You know my name? My name is legit.
