In this episode of the Revenue Builders podcast, our hosts John
McMahon and John Kaplan talk to professional golfer Dennis
Walters. In 1974, Dennis was paralyzed from the waist down in an
accident, an injury that could have put an end to his golfing
career. But rather than give up on his dreams, he chose to ‘get a
new dream.’ Through perseverance and innovation, Dennis developed
an adaptive way of putting, going on to win prestigious accolades
such as the Bob Jones Award, the Ben Hogan Award, and an
induction to the World Golf Hall of Fame.

QUOTES

Dennis on starting the Dennis Walters Golf
Show: "As I started to perform, right from the very
first show, I told people how much I loved to play golf and how
everyone told me it would be impossible to do. And what I was
trying to do, among other things, was to show people what's
possible not only in golf but life itself. I try to encourage
them to do things in their life that the thought was impossible.
As everyone said, golf would be impossible for me."

The traits that make a successful man, says
Dennis: "The only way I know how to do it is through
hard work. And I think this applies to selling, it applies to how
you conduct your life, it depends on how you treat others. But I
think there's no substitute to hard work and perseverance. If you
can put those things together, I think you can be successful at
anything."
