These are emotions that seem authentic—like frustration, confidence, or urgency—but are actually fear-based responses that disconnect us from our teammates and our purpose.Curtis reveals how to spot these emotional imposters, why they lead to victimhood and blame, and how to shift into authentic leadership that creates trust, empowerment, and innovation. From overcoming fear to building teams that connect at a human level, this episode is a guide for any leader who wants to build a culture where people feel safe, show up fully, and perform at their best.Transcript: https://share.transistor.fm/s/bf168437/transcript.txthttps://www.counterfeitemotions.com/

One of the most profound topics that Mary often talks about is the role of fear in our lives. Fear can hold us back, prevent us from reaching our full potential, and hinder our ability to experience true joy. Curtis J. Morley, in his book "Counterfeit Emotions," sheds light on the concept of counterfeit emotions and how they can deceive us into living in a state of fear and disconnection. Curtis explains that every authentic emotion has a counterfeit counterpart, except for one: peace. The counterfeit emotions masquerade as the authentic ones, leading us astray and creating destructive patterns in our lives. By understanding and recognizing these counterfeit emotions, we can break free from their grip and embrace a more authentic and fulfilling existence. Curtis shares his personal journey of discovering the difference between authentic and counterfeit emotions, and how understanding this distinction can lead to a more fulfilling life. They also explore the role of fear in preventing people from recognizing and addressing their counterfeit emotions. Curtis offers a masterclass and book on the topic to help others transform their lives.

Counterfeit emotions, such as shame and misery, create destructive patterns of disconnection. Guilt is the authentic emotion that connects us to ourselves, God, others, and the truth, while shame is its counterfeit. Pain and joy can coexist, but misery and joy are exclusive. Fear is the counterfeit of faith, as fear creates a future we don't want, while faith creates a future we do want. The Masterclass offered by Curtis Morley helps individuals recognize and overcome counterfeit emotions in their lives.

Curtis J. Morley is the real deal: He gets things done!  “I've got a huge, audacious goal, I want to help one million entrepreneurs take their business to the next level,” he tells Published Author Podcast host Josh Steimle.   That's why Curtis wrote his book, The Entrepreneur's Paradox: How to Overcome the 16 Pitfalls Along the Startup Journey, and works as a coach and a mentor.  Says Curtis: “There is a better way that doesn't include all the pain. I made all the mistakes, every single one of them that are listed in my book, especially in my first two companies.”  Entrepreneurs And Authors Are Prone To Imposter Syndrome   “I was thinking ‘I've never written a book, I don't know what I'm doing. All these other people are famous authors.'  “If you ask my English teachers from junior high all the way through college, they would not have picked me to write,” he says. Fortunately his editor was amazing and also functioned as a coach by helping with wordsmithing and storytelling.   On imposter syndrome, Curtis says the reason it's chronic with entrepreneurs, is that imposter syndrome is actually baked into entrepreneurship.   “You're doing something that has never been done before, in a way that's never been done before, in a market that's never been tried before,” he explains. “It doesn't matter if you're a high school dropout, or if you're a Harvard grad, you still have to figure it out like everybody else. It doesn't matter, you know, that you don't have all the answers. And that's okay. It's totally okay not to have all the answers . . . that's when the real growth starts to happen.”  Entrepreneurs who are willing to go through that journey of growth must have “an indefatigable drive to take one more step up the mountain, and it's going to be hard, and it's going to be okay, because that's all that I really need is to take one more step up the mountain.”  Apply Solid Business Principles For ‘Amazing Success'   “You don't need you don't need a Warren Buffett to be your guide up the mountain anymore. There's solid business principles that anyone can take and apply to their business and succeed.”  Curtis quotes the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which note that 30% of small businesses go defunct within the first year, and 50% go out of business within the first five years. He believes business can avoid this route by applying the proper principles for amazing success.  What Gets You Into Business Will Stop You From Succeeding   The basis of Curtis' book is that what gets an entrepreneur into business—his/her expertise, craft or skill—is what will actively prevent them from succeeding in business.  Curtis learned this lesson through experience. He became one of the top Adobe Flash experts in the world, and decided to set up a business selling this skill. But he quickly learned that if an entrepreneur spends 24-hours a day building the product, there is no time to build the company.   “That's the paradox, it's that I'm so good at something that I love to do. And I want to do it all day long. But I have to actually give up being the best in the world at something, in order to be the best in the world at building a company,” Curtis explains.  One of the pitfalls of being an entrepreneur, he explains, is that they love to wear all the hats in a company. The hard lesson here that has to be learned is that an entrepreneur must learn to delegate and trust that others will get the job done.   The second part of trust is trusting yourself. “Most people don't realize that there's that aspect of trust when you're delegating,” explains Curtis.   Writing a Book Is Like Climbing a Mountain   Curtis wrote the first two-thirds of his book before a summit to Mount Kilimanjaro. But when he returned home he scrapped all his work and began again.   “It was so much of a better book with the analogy of Kilimanjaro in there, and it actually was more fun.”  He hired an editor to help him with wordsmithing, along with the story flow and examples.   Understanding The Bestseller Lists   Before writing his book and working as a coach and mentor, Curtis worked for Franklin Covey and learned a great deal about what makes a bestselling book.   He discusses this at length in the episode, but a key point is that: “With a new release, all of the prior orders to the release date are counted in that week. So all the sales you've done before the day of launch will be piled up on that one day. If you sold 10,000 books in the four months prior to launch, then all 10,000 will count on the day of your launch.”  Promote Your Book Through Keynotes And Book Exchanges   To market his book, Curtis did a lot of what he calls book exchanges or the keynote exchanges. This involved going out to organizations he knows are interested in entrepreneurship and offering to do a keynote at zero cost if they purchase a copy of the book for every attendee.   If you like this episode, you won't want to miss these episodes:  Bestseller Opens Door To Speaking Gigs For Retired Military Leader  Turn Your Book Into Income By Being Smart With Publicity  LINKS  LinkedIn  Twitter  Instagram  EntrepreneursParadox.com  SUBSCRIBE TO THE PUBLISHED AUTHOR PODCAST  If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or anywhere else you listen to podcasts.

At the core of his new book, The Entrepreneur's Paradox: How to Overcome the 16 Pitfalls Along the Start-up Journey (Mango Publishing, March 2021) is a paradox: what got you into business (your brilliance and expertise) is the very thing that will actively prevent you from succeeding in business.

Curtis is an Inc. 500/5000 Hall of Fame Recipient who has been recognized as Utah Valley's Entrepreneur of the Year for five consecutive years. After climbing to the top of Mt.
