You’ve probably got this idea in your head, that the most successful people are the most talented or gifted or something like that. And I’m here to tell you that you are wrong.

If I could sum it up, I think one of the biggest keys to success is delusion: believing that you can do something that might be out of your league or get the job that you’re not technically qualified for or become a professional cheerleading when you couldn’t even make your college team.

In today's episode, I’m sharing my story of using confidence –and some delusion– to launch my pro cheerleading career and the 12 other lessons that experience taught me.

This is one episode you cannot miss. Let’s dive in.

What’s in this episode:

• [00:00] Intro

• [00:35] How delusion powered me into a professional cheerleading career

• [06:15] The #1 piece of advice professional cheerleaders give to each other

• [10:16] Why you HAVE to believe in yourself to get anywhere

• [14:40] How learning the business of marketing changed my perspective

• [18:00] Why the most talented people are not usually the most successful
