James: It's that saying that a lot of people know this saying or have heard it, you get what you want by helping other people get what they want.
Consciously, subconsciously versus yeah, yeah, I help people get what they want.
I get what I want.
No, no, you truly have to embrace that and embody that.
And I find that's what makes the difference because it's a shift in a frame, a shift in energy that you're coming at people with, a shift in attitude, a shift in behaviors, and a shift in focus.
James: And, of course, your focus determines your behaviors and your behaviors determine your results.
Host: And so initially, initially, I applied to a local newspaper and I was going to be at an opening for a freelance reporter.
I was like, Oh, I'll do that.
I like the idea.
Well, I got my first freelance article, and I got the green light to write it.
The article was about how COVID-19 has affected small businesses.
And I got the interview. I did the interview.
I was working on the source material, and I got it to the editor, and the editor was like,
Yeah, we're not going to be a good fit.
He just cut me right off and excluded me from all the stuff he had added me to.
We're going to pass on hiring you.
Good luck with your endeavors.
And to say it was a bombshell at the time, I was like, wow.
Had I stopped there, I never would have been where I am today.
James: I bet that was a gift.
I bet that was the gift in the universe.
Host: It was, it was.
Host: Because I took that, and I said, you know what?
All right. Okay.I see you, buddy. I'm just going to go do my own thing.
And I got on Substack and I created a publication.
