Today’s guest is the perfect example of someone who defied the odds mostly by choosing a different story for his future. […] The post 246: Leader by Choice? Yes, says Andres Valdes first appeared on Read to Lead Podcast.

Andres Valdes shares the 7 inspirational decisions that helped him overcome failures, setbacks, and life's punches by using self-leadership to turn adversity into an advantage.

Andres Valdes has been punched in the mouth by life more than once. He grew up living on a factory floor, lost both his parents, and soon turned to a life of crime. It was at his lowest point, after toying with the law, that Andres realised he could turn his experiences into opportunities. Despite blow after blow, today Andres has used these experiences to become a successful global leader (and Diplomat) inspiring individuals and organisations to live, love and lead ON purpose, to make an impact, not just an income.

He has been a US diplomat for over 12 years so he's acquired vast international leadership and management experience. he speaks multiple languages and he has led teams as small as 2 to as large as 200 in 8 countries. Now he is a part-time entrepreneur using his international experience along with his personal story of overcoming financial, academic, and family setbacks to inspire motivated individuals through his keynote speaking, writing and advising. Not forgetting he has written for the Everyday Power Blog, Thrive Global, and Medium. He has also spoken to corporate staff, students, and mastermind groups and finally but not least he is also a lecturer at the Leadership School. His one-sentence summary of his book: "Brainwashed into believing I was disadvantaged because of family, financial, and educational circumstances, I eventually realized those same setbacks could be turned into an advantage once I started leading myself by choice instead of by chance. Looking back over my life, I identified 7 specific decisions I made and that anyone can make to help them live with more purpose, passion, and perseverance."   For more information about Andres visit his website andresvaldes.com and connect with him on Twitter.
