No BS Mastery Podcast EP 67: Dorie Clark Drops Truth Bombs About Playing the Long Game and How to Make Your Own Luck
What are you willing to do to get to what you really want?
And how many times are you willing to hit a wall in the process of achieving it?
You need clarity about what you want, but you also need to get clear on your expectations for the results of your actions.
If you reach out once and assume not hearing back means no, if you pitch a major publication with three articles on your blog, you have to adjust your expectations.
Success is a long game that requires tenacity and consistency.
Today I’m so excited to catch up with the brilliant and badass Dorie Clark.
In this conversation Dorie shares a behind the scenes look at how she built an impressive and far-reaching brand and reputation online and off, as well as her upcoming book, The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World, and what it means to stay steady on a path to build the business and life you want.
Dorie Clark is an adjunct professor at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business and the author of Entrepreneurial You, Reinventing You and Stand Out, which was named the #1 Leadership Book of 2015 by Inc. magazine. A former presidential campaign spokeswoman, the New York Times described her as an “expert at self-reinvention and helping others make changes in their lives.” A frequent contributor to the Harvard Business Review, she consults and speaks for clients including Google, Microsoft, and the World Bank.
