What to listen for: Facing fears can lead to personal growth and confidence Skydiving was a pivotal experience for Gresh in overcoming his fear of heights Childhood experiences can shape your personality and adaptability Entrepreneurship was a natural path for Gresh, influenced by his family's background. The importance of taking calculated risks in career transitions Failures can lead to valuable lessons and resilience in entrepreneurship Self-mastery is a journey that requires daily commitment and self-reflection It's essential to listen to your inner calling, even when faced with external doubts “You did something you were afraid to do, which I think is probably, I think the most powerful thing for me.” Facing fear and taking action is an empowering experience. Overcoming fear often leads to personal breakthroughs and self-discovery. Every small victory over fear builds a stronger sense of self. Your bravery can motivate others to face their own fears. True power comes from stepping outside your comfort zone. “If there's something that you're afraid of, it doesn't have to stop you, it doesn't have to paralyze you, you can still continue to do it.” Fear is natural but doesn't have to be a barrier. Taking steps despite fear reduces its hold on you. Facing fears strengthens mental and emotional resilience. Continuing to act shows fear doesn't control your choices. Fear can coexist with progress—you don't have to wait for it to disappear. About Gresham “Gresh” W. Harkless Jr. Gresham “Gresh” W. Harkless Jr. is the founder of Blue16 Media and CBNation.

Instead, you can focus on creating a platform and inviting experts onto your show to share their insights.   He motivates podcasters to focus on their unique voice, rather than trying to imitate others, as authentic content will naturally stand out.   In addition, Gresham inspires others to embrace the journey and the mistakes along the way, as they are part of the learning process.   Episode Link: Rogier Giersthove Podcast   Check out our CEO Hack Buzz Newsletter–our premium newsletter with hacks and nuggets to level up your organization.

Gresh explains that the goal is to help entrepreneurs, CEOs, and business owners increase their success in business. Gresh then introduces the concept of 'start time', which refers to the morning routine or sacred time that individuals spend being intentional about their success. He shares a personal story about her dog, Star, and how Star's impact on her life led to changes in her morning routine. Gresh emphasizes that the morning routine doesn't have to follow a specific set of activities, but rather should be tailored to individual preferences and goals. He highlights the importance of beginning the day with the end in mind and working backwards to achieve desired outcomes. Gresh mentions that the morning routine can include elements such as mindset rituals, movement, planning, and fuel. Gresh also emphasizes the importance of consistency and starting small when implementing a morning routine. He shares his own morning routine, which includes waking up early, reading the Bible, journaling, exercising, and hydrating. He explains that his morning routine helps her stay grounded, increase productivity, and create momentum in her personal and business life.
