TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

  1. Any jump starts when the little voice won’t go away. Listen to it.

  2. Make a plan. Put away money, look for the people who will support you, try it out part-time.

  3. Let yourself be lucky. Don’t wait for full certainty – that’s where jumps die.

  4. Embrace failure. Look forward to it.

  5. It won’t become “more” overnight. It starts with the mini, unsexy steps that can make it something more.

  6. Use your adversity to your advantage. Hardship helps.

  7. Envision yourself as the baker, the jewelry maker, the pro squash athlete. If you don’t, no one will.

  8. Find your one north star – the one person who lives in the same terms you believe in.

  9. Say you can crush it. Because you can, and you will.

  10. Dream big, act small.

  11. Success happens from facing the failure and the restarts, and coming back the next day.
