Ian McKay makes his grand appearance on Byproduct Performance Podcast in what is guaranteed to be an episode you'll listen to again.
Today we discuss passion and how it fuels the work we do. We touch on how we approach and adapt a mentality of "Burn the Boats" while understanding and knowing the difference between forward for now, but never loosing the understanding of how to build the boats.
It's less about burning it down and more about signifying a trust in yourself to move forward, to accomplish a goal and know at the end of the day you're putting yourself in a situation that you'll figure it out.
I hope you enjoy this discussion as much as I did. This is a helpful reminder to seek out conversations that challenge the depth and understanding in yourself and others. Find your passion, make a difference, recharge your battery, laugh a lot and don't be afraid to shit the bed every now and again.
Go forth and do good!
As per requested by Ian here is the passage I so elegantly stumbled my way through during the podcast.
"He stood on the precipice of the world and wept. Not for the wonder that stood before him, not for the extravagance of sights on his journey. He wept for the loss of adventure. In that moment he knew his unparalleled pursuit had become his demise."
