Barksdale to success:

4. Get Uncomfortable
Mr. John Barksdale did not get where he is today by being comfortable. He made
his first million by seventeen because he continually stepped outside of his
comfort zone seeking new challenges.
“At the age of fifteen,” reads Mr. Barksdale’s bio, “again feeling the need to step
outside of his comfort zone to allow for personal growth, he became one of the
top sellers in his area for a satellite company by going the challenging route of
selling door to door.”
5. Find Fulfillment

must find work that makes you feel satisfied, happy and stimulated. This
approach has helped Mr. Barksdale live true to himself while finding great
success.

thousand representatives,” reads his bio. “Despite the fun that the travel industry
