Ep15. A conversation with Carlo

“You have to realize that sometimes stubbornness can be a good thing. Not wanting to give up on it, wanting to continue on it” – “Open yourself up. Be willing to put yourself in an uncomfortable situation, and learn from it. Trust that if it’s still interesting to you, then it’s worth pursuing             ” - “You can’t necessarily look at an end goal and think: I can do that. You need to look at the end goal and think: How do I get myself to there. If I can do this little bit, and then from this little bit I do this, and then this, and this…, yes I can get to that end goal” – “I really want to do this, but I have no clue how to do this!” – “I really think that’s a key part of starting your process: talking to people and sharing what your goal is. It’s so easy to keep that goal internal and be afraid to talk about it, be afraid to share it, because you’re worried about what other people are going to say. You open yourself up to negativity, you open yourself up to positivity, but you have to start that process of opening yourself up and getting feedback. You don’t have to take that negative feedback and dictate whether you’re going to move forward or not. Focus on the positive, because those are going to be the cheerleaders in it” – “Through your uncomfortableness is where you make the best changes” – “You have to be willing to put in the hard work. You can’t be afraid to the hard work that is going to come with achieving your goal” – “Does it spike your curiosity? How do I know what my passion is? You don’t have to know, you just have to follow your curiosity!” – Carlo’s song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5KgsubkMCA
