Stephen Byers's Linkedin Analytics

"In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure." My drive and passion have been always to help others grow and succeed. Upon graduating from the University of Dallas with a Bachelor's Degree in Business, I realized through my education and experience that helping others grow and succeed is one of the most rewarding aspects of business. Knowing that I have developed and acquired the skills necessary to assist others in helping them succeed not only as a businessperson but also as an individual, I am excited to meet new people and give others the best opportunity to grow into the best version of themselves. I once heard a story about a young individual who wanted so badly to be successful. He goes to this man who then tells him to meet him at the beach early the next morning. He meets the older man bright and early only to see him wading in the shallow water. The older man tells him to join him in the water only to be surprised by him dunking him underwater. The young man is squirming and gasping for air. The old man pulls him out and asks, "while you were underwater, what was the one thing you wanted to do?" The young man says, "to breath." To which the old man says, "if you take the same mentality of wanting so badly to breathe to being successful, then you will succeed." This little story is just an example of what it means to have the desire to be successful. Your fear of drowning cannot overthrow your desire to breathe. Keep a positive outlook on your success and have the desire to succeed, and you will accomplish more in your life than you think.
