In today’s episode, Jayson Waller is joined with his friend and PowerHome Solar Director, Joe Cabban to discuss “The Only Real Failure” in life, being a quitter.
Jayson and Joe look back on both of their past events that could’ve gone differently if only they had persevered, including quitting sports in their early days. They talk about Jayson's appearance on David Meltzer's 2 Minute Drill Pitch Show where entrepreneurs from all walks of life compete each week for more than $50,000 in cash and prizes; five contestants have just two minutes to deliver their most convincing pitch.
Jayson's partners were trying to convince him to quit PowerHome, but instead of giving in to the pressure of his colleagues, Jayson decided to go ALL IN, because winners don’t quit! Jayson and Joe also derive life lessons from NFL moments, including those from Jayson's favourite team - the Detroit Lions.
“Don’t Quit, That Is The Only Real Failure!”
