This episode is about how to get a better job by beating your limiting beliefs. 
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. You've probably heard this quote before. It's supposedly from Wayne Gretzky, the Hall of Fame hockey player who scored 2,857 points in his career and it spread like wildfire in recent years.    It's easy to see why this quote speaks to something that we all experience and struggle. Especially in our job search.   
 Have you ever looked at a job listing or a potential promotion and thought to yourself, I can't do that. Maybe you've  gone as far as to not apply to a particular position because you didn't think you had the requirements or maybe right when things were working out for you, you stepped on the brakes and slowed down because you were too scared of what would happen if you kept going.   
This is something we all do in some form or another, and I call it self elimination. Self elimination is the process of removing yourself from consideration based on your own insecurities  and it's often tough to navigate because how do you know if you're self eliminating or if you just really aren't qualified for the job?   But unfortunately, the effects of getting it wrong can be massive. Self elimination leads to stagnation. 
It causes us to only reach for and accept positions that we know will be comfortable in. By definition, this keeps us locked in a cyclical pattern, limiting our earning potential, limiting our ability to serve our family and our larger community, and even in some cases affecting our overall happiness.  
So it's a real problem. Let's talk about it.
