Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week I'm eager to replay a conversation with Bill Wooditch. Bill is the founder and CEO of Wooditch Enterprises. He works with Fortune 500 companies like AIG, Old Republic, Zurich, and Bank of America to improve their sales and leadership. He appeared regularly on Steve Harvey's “Act Like a Success” show and has also appeared on CNBC, Fox, and CBS. He has written for Inc., New York Daily News, and the American Management Association. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone who wants to succeed and learn how to use their indispensable failures to get there faster! TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…..it's the serious student of success that treats failure as the indispensable teacher. Unless you're able to first move through the pains of rejection and the fear of the attempt, you will not be able to move forward to create the lifestyle you dream of. The key here is to be dispassionate about failure and check your irrational fears, ego, and the fear of losing prestige because this can paralyze your progress. Bill shares some wisdom and strategies for addressing fear, failure, and the pursuit of success. WHAT I LOVE MOST… it's a pleasure to have someone on the What's Next! Podcast who talks about fear of failure and having the courage and fortitude to lean into the kind of discomfort that leads to success.

For this episode, I welcome Bill Wooditch. After spending a year at a dead-end job with a foreclosed future, Bill Wooditch created his renowned “Always Forward” mindset and forged his way from the impoverished backwoods of western Pennsylvania to create a multi-million-dollar company, which he continues to lead today. As a professional speaker, Bill uses his experiences to inspire individuals to pursue personal development and professional success. He is the author of Always Forward and Fail More, a Wall Street Journal bestseller. The hard-won lessons he shares in his books and keynotes are designed to shorten the distance between where you are now and where you are determined to go in the future. We open this episode with Bill sharing his background story. Bill grew up in western Pennsylvania, having to march to a certain drum all the time because his father was a Pennsylvania state policeman. Ironically, Bill was a rebel from a very young age and didn't deal well with authority. His rebellious nature got him a job in a factory and while his friends went to school, he had to stay home and go to work. Bill shares how living this life, feeling like there is no future in front of him, scared him to death. This is when his parents decided to give him one more chance and send him to school. Bill then talks about his experiences during his college years, and how the biggest lesson he learned was how to connect with people. Bill believes that college is still important today for the right industry, for engineers and scientists, but he doesn't believe that it is the only way to become successful. This was a tough mind shift for him because he was a huge believer in college experience because it worked for him. Together we then dive into discussing the good and the bad that Bill learned during his career that served him in moving forward. He explains how doing things the “corporate way” never came naturally to him, and he discovered the magic formula the hard way, by failing. He found that the true formula was to simply connect with people. Bill is a firm believer that putting people in a box and trying to make them conform to the “rules'' is not beneficial for anyone. His philosophy is that only a great leader can hire exceptional people and allow them to be great. We also discussed what Bill's company does and how he discovered his niche. He shares how his regional insurance brokerage firm The Wooditch Group is a holding company for a couple of companies that transact property and casualty insurance-related business. This platform allowed Bill to follow one of his other passions, which is public speaking. Eventually, all of this led to him writing his books, in which he poured his essence into, Always Forward and Fail More. Today, he doesn't spend that much time on the corporate insurance side because he has an amazing team behind him, so he is able to focus on having high-end conversations with successful people. Eventually, Bill explains the difference between large and small goals. According to Bill, it is important to have huge aspirations in life, but you have to have small goals in between because accomplishing those small goals will give you the boost that you need in order to keep moving forward and eventually accomplishing your large goals. Otherwise, you will just have a fantasy that will eventually disappoint you and set you back. Bill shares that the difference between inspiration and motivation is that motivation will go away after a while. Lastly, we discuss the importance of first giving value. Bill believes that in order to differentiate yourself from the masses you have to think in terms of value. You need to keep in mind that the arbiter of the value is the client. This, as he called it, “servant mentality” attracted his customers and made him stand out. He built his entire business on giving value first.

Notable Quotes: “I was a rebel without a clue.” Bill Wooditch “I hated the most important thing that we have to do to make success real and that is work.” Bill Wooditch “We all need a little fear in our lives to be able to move forward, and I had a big dose of fear: doing the same things for 8 hours a day, with no future in front of me.” Bill Wooditch “When I was growing up, there was no discussion - you are going to go to college, that's what you do, otherwise you're a loser, high school education is not enough. I just don't think it's the case anymore for a lot of folks.” Mike Simmons “I found the magic formula the hard way, by failing. The magic formula was just to connect with people.” Bill Wooditch “You are not going to win every heart, you are not going to influence every mind. Why don't you just meet them as people? ” Bill Wooditch “People who were born to communicate, people who were born to connect, born to have that really dynamic interaction with people, if you hide them away you're just weakening them. Like Superman with kryptonite.” Mike Simmons “Great people will be great, you just have to get out of their way a little bit.” Mike Simmons “It is not about controlling. It is about inspiring, cultivating, and working together as a team.” Bill Wooditch “If you don't have a lot of activity in sales, you have nothing.” Bill Wooditch “So many people are stymied and paralyzed by the anxiety of doing something wrong.

Bill Wooditch’s journey started out as a long-haired, beer-drinking failure. Crippled by fear, he couldn't seem to sell water to a dying man in the desert. His biggest fear of all was selling himself short and not living up to his full potential. By adjusting, adapting and mastering the art of authenticity, empathy, and relentless activity, he transformed fear from being his worst enemy, into his greatest secret weapon.

When you think about success, it’s easy to get caught up in how we move forward in life. But failure is often a predecessor to success or any kind of achievement. It was Churchill who said that “success is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.” If you are open to learning, your failures can teach you more than your successes. Bill Wooditch, author of Fail More: Embrace, Learn, and Adapt to Failure as a Way to Success, explores how to learn from failures in order to achieve success, in this interview hosted by John Golden.

In this episode of Hack the Process, Bill tells us how he optimizes his work and his life around freedom of choice, what knowing his own limitations showed him about how to structure his business, and why he believes his greatest mentors came to him through reading ancient philosophy.
Bill Horan talks to Bill Wooditch, author of FAILMORE. Bill will discuss why he says if you want to be successful you should fail more, why failure only stops you if you don't get back up, why success or failure is a self-fulfilling prophecy, what he means by "the cycle of avoidance," and why for most of us being a victim is a choice.

Kelly talks to Bill Wooditch, CEO of risk management company The Wooditch Group. His new book, Fail More, speaks to the need for individuals to embrace their mistakes as a way to grow and thrive.
For most people, the messages they received in childhood continue to have a major impact on the ways that they think and operate in adulthood. Of everything we were told growing up, the idea that failure is wrong, and a sign of lacking capacity can be one of the most detrimental. My guest today, Bill Wooditch, is an entrepreneur, speaker, and author of the forthcoming book Fail More. His message—that failure is a key learning tool—is helping people let go of the old message to avoid failure, and smash through the limits they may have once created for themselves.
This week I had the pleasure of joining Bill Wooditch on his show “The Unstoppables,” where he interviewed me about my life and work. The conversation ranged far and wide, from one of my first jobs, to understanding how we can turn fear into fuel for our biggest goals. Talking to Bill left me feeling energized and inspired, and reminded me of how we can step into our full selves to become unstoppable.

Bill Wooditch is author of “Fail More: Embrace, Learn, and Adapt to Failure As a Way to Success” and a motivational speaker with a risk and financial background. He is founder and CEO of The Wooditch Group, a risk-management and corporate insurance firm. He mentors and teaches clients skills to harness the lessons of failure to create success driven opportunities. His approach is a physical, intellectual, spiritual and emotional journey based on 25 years of real life experience. Bill’s first job out of college was at Liberty Mutual making insurance cold calls. It wasn’t a job he necessarily wanted, but it was an opportunity that he was determined to make work. On Bill’s desk, he had a ruler that read, “Activity Rules Success”. He made that phrase his motto for his work at Liberty – making the most calls he could everyday and noting what worked and didn’t. He figured that if he had the most activity and just kept pushing, he would eventually have a break though – and he did. “What do you really want?” Bill uses this question often in presentations. Most are too afraid to do whatever it takes to make it. Perseverance has gone by the wayside and most want the easy job or quick success without the work. Bill has lots of “get tough” talks and works to put people in a growth mindset rather than a fixed mindset. With everyone having their own internal version of success, Bill teaches that first knowing: 1) What you are, and 2) Who you are, is how progress is made in figuring out how to reach that success.

On Jean-Paul Sartre's Anti-Semite and Jew: An Exploration of the Etiology of Hate (1946) and "Black Orpheus" (1948). How can we best understand the psychology of racism? Sartre condemns anti-Semitism as denying the facts of the human condition: the responsibility for fixing problems and not blaming them on a demonized other. But he also criticizes "the democrat" for a humanism that pretends we're in a post-racial world, calling instead for "concrete liberalism" that treats Jews not as abstract individuals but as real people in an an oppressed situation.

In this episode of “Surviving to Thriving: Overcoming My Darkest Moment,” I talk with best-selling author, speaker and business owner, Bill Wooditch. Bill grew up in the backwoods of Western Pennsylvania where his mom had a singular goal: get her kids out of their dead-end factory town. His father was a strict alcoholic who never validated him, so Bill had his own mission: rebel at all costs. That meant growing his hair, smoking, drinking and working in a factory… essentially closing the door on his own future. One day as he grabbed his bologna sandwich and started off to work, he looked back at his mom who had tears in her eyes. Her worst fear had come true. Bill was on his way to nowheresville. That feeling of disappointing his mom fueled Bill to leave his factory job, go to college and change the trajectory of his life. Listen in as he shares his path to monetary success as a top sales person at a Fortune 500 Company, then to life success. He talks about the importance of transparent communication and that to find happiness, you really have to know yourself. Today Bill is on a mission to help people improve their lifestyle options physically, intellectually, spiritually and emotionally. Learn more about what he does at http://billwooditch.com/
