Welcome back to "THRIVE: Turning Uncertainty To Competitive Advantage"! Today's episode is going to be a game-changer. Our awesome host, Meridith Elliott Powell, is chatting with motivational speaker and sales expert, Victor Antonio. If you're into sales, personal growth, or just leveling up in life, you definitely don't want to miss this.
Victor really opens up about everything from how he tackles tasks he’s not great at—like accounting—by delegating them, to the power of being real with yourself about what you’re good and not-so-good at. We’re talking about learned optimism, the ABC model in sales, and some deep dives into mindset shifts that can make a big difference.
He shares some cool personal stories, like dealing with a leaky pipe and smashing through those invisible cages we all put around ourselves. Plus, there's a great discussion on why it's so important to focus on your strengths and how resilience can turn life's hard knocks into stepping stones to success.
One thing that really stands out is his take on risk-taking, aiming for success (not perfection), and why we need to take control of our own lives. Meridith and Victor also get into how pain can be a motivator and why it’s crucial to take action instead of waiting for someone else to save you.
So grab your headphones and get ready for some seriously motivating insights and practical advice. Let’s dive in with Victor Antonio on THRIVE!
