Nick Cavuoto Finding Alignment
b'
Join Wes Tankersley on this episode of Shaping Success as he talks to Entrepreneur Nick Cavuoto about his story of success.
Nick\\u2019s mindset for achievement came about when he realized that people want to do something that matters. They want to make a contribution that lives on. The big question is why am I here? Who can help me get to where I need to be?\\xa0 The key to success is how to get there.
Nick started his success story by stating that his father was a drug dealer that found Jesus. He dropped out of school with an 8th grade education. One day he broke into a church, and the people there convinced him to stay.\\xa0 Nick says belief and encouragement can make a difference in the path of success. Nick is the youngest of three children who were raised heavily Pentacostal. His Dad was worried the kids would turn out how he was, so he watched their every move. By the time he came along, his parents were just concerned about not dying. As a result, Nick was a rebel that got to do his own thing.\\xa0
At 19, he failed out of college twice. He asked his Dad what he should do. His Dad suggested he help people. Through this suggestion and 100 days of therapy, Nick found his living passion. This path to success led him into ministry first with the church and then through helping people figure out how they can find their living passion. This means the most success to him because he ministers more now than he ever did in a church.\\xa0
Nick and Wes discuss how many different ways the Bible can be interpreted.\\xa0 People search for how someone interprets the Bible to what they want to hear.\\xa0
Nick\\u2019s secret to success is being a champion for the misfits, misunderstood, and the rebels.\\xa0 He says there are people that were raised in the church and found their passion with ministry, then the very people that instilled that passion turned away from them. These people want to do amazing things.\\xa0 One success quote Nick says is \\u201cyou can\\u2019t do Epic Shit with Basic people.\\u201d You set up for success by doing it scared.\\xa0 Another success quote is \\u201cFailure is a green light.\\u201d This means failure is not the end. People can learn from failure by asking themselves what can I do to make it better? What do I change?
One of Nick\\u2019s mentors is David James Leese who was a psychologist and now a Dallas monk.\\xa0 He had a 2 hour long conversation with him that changed his life. He said stop saying \\u201cI feel.\\u201d\\xa0 Instead say \\u201cI think\\u201d, \\u201cI choose\\u201d, and I believe.\\u201d \\xa0
