2. This episode is a family affair, in which Val
and his brothers Vince and Charles reflect
on the journey of launching a video podcast
and now having 10 episodes, as well how to
deal with the fear that stops the most from
going for what they want.

3. Key Topics
Val’s Journey
Val was struggling in life and business, building something
completely from scratch. Now, it’s all coming together – people
are benefiting from Val’s journey. Everyone has to start
somewhere.
When people become successful, they can make it look easy,
but there is so much work that goes on behind the scenes and
there are no shortcuts to success.
You have to be willing to take one step at a time and then one
day, you will look back and see how far you’ve come.
How to Achieve Success
No matter what your background or current career is, most
businesses only have a certain level of success that you can
reach – unless you are working for yourself.
Even if your first attempt at a new endeavor feels like a
failure, you just have to tweak your goals, regroup and keep
going.
Understand that setbacks are just a part of the journey
and won’t affect how successful you will become as long as
you keep taking steps forward.
Even in the gym, it takes some people years to get to
where they are now, success doesn’t happen overnight.

4. Overcoming Fear
Even the strongest of us have fear but realize that courage is also
there too and you have to let that courage drive you.
You may not begin to move forward until you feel completely fed
up with where you are, but there is no timeline on courage.
Be aware that you need a circle, find a support system that can
help you.
People can unintentionally stick around energy that drains them.
Try to stay away from people who bring you down, don’t believe
in your purpose or try to force you to be someone that you’re not.
Meeting like minded people will help you to open your mind to
the possibilities in life.
Finding Yourself After Feeling Lost
Focus on searching for who you are and committing to personal
development to find self-love, awareness, and create new
passions.
Love yourself first. With social media, we see ‘perfect’ lives every
day and some people love other people’s lives more than their
own – live your purpose, focus on and put more energy into your
own life.
If you don’t feel like you are where you are supposed to be,
conserve your energy by dialing back and spending more time
with yourself and your ideas.
You may not get to the point where you admit you are lost until
you are in so much pain, but you can change your life before you
get to that point.

5. Key Quotes
“We’re so in our mind about things that we forget to experience life.”
“Once you get on top of that mountain, it’s irreplaceable. You can’t get that
anywhere else.”
“People are afraid to start in a place where they could potentially be
embarrassed. People are so afraid to start with low numbers, but everyone
who has started has started with low numbers!”
“There is a certain power that derives from overcoming your fears, and
within that power, you start to create opportunities for yourself.”
“You have to be open in order to find spiritual energy. You have to be open
to refocusing your mind and have a clean slate.”
“Look in the mirror everyday, really look at yourself and say ‘I Love You’.”
“If you don’t, from the bottom of your heart, have that conversation with
yourself and want it so bad that it hurts, you aren’t going to find yourself.”
“Ask yourself the right questions. What am I good at doing? What do I enjoy
doing? What am I good at doing that I enjoy doing?”
“This whole 9-5 thing isn’t going to make you rich. It can make you
comfortable in life, but that’s never the goal. Continue to be uncomfortable
because that’s where the fruit is.”
