<p>I’ve been reworking this episode for the past several weeks. I had it all nicely laid out. You see, this episode was supposed to be part 2 of my process on finding my niche, but no matter how much I want my life to play out in an orderly, serial tv sort of fashion, life just isn’t that clean cut.</p><p></p><p>Instead, this episode is about fear. Not so much the dreaded fear of heights or the dark or even the fear of failing. Rather, I want to talk about what that fear does to us, and how it impacts our decisions even when we might not realize it.</p><p></p><p>Some themes to ponder:</p><p></p><p>-Fear does not need a present threat, it just needs past experience</p><p></p><p>-Life is coming from you, not at you</p><p></p><p>-It’s important to recognize when fear is the one calling the shots</p><p></p><p>-Treat adversity and opportunity exactly the same; run straight at it.</p><p></p><p></p><p>John Maxwell wrote an entire book of poetry!

<p>We’ve got a problem on our hands. I started Sleepy Dog Creative blissfully ignorant of a couple key issues right at the center of it all. Now, I’m on a journey of soul searching, whiteboard sessions, and conversations from trusted friends to figure it all out.</p><p></p><p></p><p>Some themes to ponder:</p><p></p><p>-The more specific you can get about what you do and who you do it for, the more stable and successful your business will be.</p><p></p><p>-Pay attention to who hires you. You might have identified your target market.</p><p></p><p>-Pay attention to how the people around you describe what you do.</p><p></p><p>-Be patient with yourself, and enjoy the journey.</p><p></p><p></p><p>Check out Jeremy’s social media company, Impact Social!</p><p>Website: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.impactsocial.io/">https://www.impactsocial.io/</a></p><p>Instagram: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/impactsocial.io/">https://www.instagram.com/impactsocial.io/</a></p><p></p><p>Special thanks to Jeremy Wagner, Ryan Mjoen, Josh Shumaker, John Maxwell, Austin Sabella, Michel Sharritt, and Annie Bell</p><p></p><p>Featured Music:</p><p></p><p>“Make It” by Cody Fry</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/1fL5tgvy2oXDq46T9VZ49d?si=974f01ee5d5d410b">https://open.spotify.com/track/1fL5tgvy2oXDq46T9VZ49d?si=974f01ee5d5d410b</a></p><p></p><p>Our Theme Song is “ok” by quinn from space :)</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/4BXDGt7eVH18ex2DoVNSAO?si=4d0d9f21c4ca4cd7">https://open.spotify.com/track/4BXDGt7eVH18ex2DoVNSAO?si=4d0d9f21c4ca4cd7</a></p>
