EP 67: Dorie Clark Drops Truth Bombs About Playing the Long Game and How to Make Your Own Luck

What are you willing to do to get to what you really want?


And how many times are you willing to hit a wall in the process
of achieving it?


You need clarity about what you want, but you also need to get
clear on your expectations for the results of your actions. 


If you reach out once and assume not hearing back means no, if
you pitch a major publication with three articles on your blog,
you have to adjust your expectations.


Success is a long game that requires tenacity and
consistency. 


Today I’m so excited to catch up with the brilliant and badass
Dorie Clark.


In this conversation Dorie shares a behind the scenes look at how
she built an impressive and far-reaching brand and reputation
online and off, as well as her upcoming book, The Long Game: How
to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World, and what it
means to stay steady on a path to build the business and life you
want.


Dorie Clark is an adjunct professor at Duke University’s Fuqua
School of Business and the author of Entrepreneurial You,
Reinventing You and Stand Out, which was named the #1 Leadership
Book of 2015 by Inc. magazine. A former presidential campaign
spokeswoman, the New York Times described her as an “expert at
self-reinvention and helping others make changes in their lives.”
A frequent contributor to the Harvard Business Review, she
consults and speaks for clients including Google, Microsoft, and
the World Bank.
