Forced resets sound horrible, but are they? In this episode, we go back and hear the stories of four individuals who, instead of choosing to give in to defeat, they decided to change with the circumstances and try again. A forced reset isn't always welcomed, but it could be a wonderful thing when faced with failure. It depends on which direction you choose to take it. Do you take a twisted moment and make the best of it, or do you head down the path of "whoa's me"? Hear the stories of the ones who never gave up. Did things always go their way? Not at all! Some became successful and changed in the middle of being successful, to become more successful. Some finished their commitment to providing for their family before giving in to their heart's true calling. Some were too stubborn to stop trying. Others were backed into a dark corner only to find out that their escape was a typewriter and a coffee shop.

Eventually, that same guitar got him out of Odessa, Texas, and landed him in Nashville, where he had songwriter dreams of making it big. Things didn't go as plan. He moves away from Nashville and becomes a full-time nurse to make ends meet, but that's not where his story ends. That's where it began. Cliff might not have "made it" in Nashville's traditional sense, but he's making it work for him. Cliff traded his nursing job to be a full-time performing artist. Traveling the world and making a living doing what he loves and to us here at Rock The Reset, we call that, making it.
