The Butterfly Effect: How Small Decisions Lead to Unbelievable Opportunities | Josh Painter

In this week’s episode, Josh Painter shares his inspiring journey of taking risks and how it eventually paid off. And how he has found a way to create the best version of himself ever, going against living the life that others expect of them.


“I get a text from the office manager, and it says do you want to work with some investors in San Diego? And this is just a concept that I talked about in the book and sometimes you just say yes to things and then figure it out later and you don't always have to know the reason or where it's going, but for whatever reason, I said yes, I remember thinking of all these questions and just said, just figure it out, yes. And he goes, okay, great, they'll be in the office on Thursday, you're going to meet with them, and I was like, oh, that escalated quickly.”


Josh talks about the crucial moments that altered his life, like taking a job working at the jail at 21, investing in real estate after a shocking phone call, and embracing opportunities even if he didn't feel ready (say YES!). He also stresses the importance of hiring coaches to help you reach your goals. Tune in now to hear Josh's story and learn more about the power of taking chances!


Josh founded the Best Version Ever community after realizing that most people live a life that others expect of them, not a life true to themselves. Unfortunately, he was living this same life, moving from one job to the next, barely getting by, and almost losing everything at one point.


Since then, Josh has built and sold a successful real estate company, started a charity organization, and lives his Best Version Ever by helping others crush their goals and reach their full potential in all areas of life.
