Weathering the Storms of Unplanned Events

Episode 48 of The Business Development Podcast with Kelly Kennedy focuses on the theme of perseverance and taking action despite setbacks. Kennedy emphasizes the importance of moving forward and doing the things that need to be done, even when they are difficult or uncomfortable. She shares personal experiences of facing challenges and acknowledges that things don't always go according to plan, but it is essential to maintain a positive outlook and continue making cold calls and taking risks in order to achieve success in business development.

Kennedy also discusses the concept of imposter syndrome and how it can hold people back from reaching their full potential. She advises listeners to push through the feelings of being an imposter by taking action and continuing to do the things that feel uncomfortable until they no longer feel like an imposter.


Key Takeaways:


  1. Take action and keep moving forward to help your business and personal growth.
  2. Don't be afraid to ask for what you want, whether it's a raise, promotion, or a meeting.
  3. Overcome imposter syndrome by taking action and doing the things that make you feel like an imposter until you no longer feel that way.
  4. Expect setbacks and obstacles in business, but don't let them hold you back. Pick yourself up and keep going.
  5. Find the positives in difficult situations and maintain a positive outlook to keep yourself motivated and moving forward.
