My Thoughts on Crossing the T’s This Week · OneLegUpAlex Media

• 0:01
  Here's your host, Alex Garrett. All right, Well, this week,
• 0:08
  as you know, I felt like I spent my time crossing the t's in
• 0:13
  hopes of dotting the eyes on the dotted line. What do I mean by
• 0:17
  that? Well, I crossed the tees with Tavern Community, who celebrates one
• 0:22
  year today. Wow, what a journey that's been for Ben Schwartz. And
• 0:27
  if you have listened to my prior one leg up show you'll know what I
• 0:30
  mean. And also travel to Talkin' Yanks with Aaron Boone Monday night. So
• 0:37
  yes, on Monday, I was crossing the t's in hopes that would give
• 0:41
  me confidence to dot the eyes and maybe sign a contract. See right now,
• 0:48
  I've crossed the t's and I look at this from a philosophical perspective.
• 0:52
  Sorry if that's boring, tea, but philosophically crossing the teas means I've done
• 0:56
  the first step to making sure that this podcast has more legs than I do.
• 1:03
  I am crossing the t's, whether it be with Tavern Community or Talking
• 1:07
  Yanks, and maybe out of all that it will give me the confidence to
• 1:15
  go up to someone and say, hey, invest in my show, invest
• 1:19
  in this podcast. Help me put this podcast on ready help me sign the
• 1:22
  dotted line, and I not through the communities, but you never know things
• 1:30
  like that could happen. So I looked at what I did Monday as outreach,
• 1:34
  as getting out there and spreading the message and the name of the one
• 1:40
  Leg Up brand because I believe in that brand. I am crossing the tees,
• 1:48
  not the two teas and Garrett, although that is kind of funny,
• 1:51
  crossing the t's in the name of networking and I think to that in one
• 2:00
  day and put in my full time work effort as well. It showed me
• 2:07
  the possibilities are there to not only live in the four walls of a full
• 2:13
  time job that I get to be on the air with and then I get
• 2:15
  to produce for and hold my editing skills, but then to break those walls,
• 2:21
  through those walls and expand branch out, go beyond and crossing the t's
• 2:30
  with tavern Yanks, tavern and talking Yanks, Now that's funny. Tavern Yanks,
• 2:34
  tavern and talking Yanks gave me the confidence to continue looking and searching for
• 2:40
  great guests, great ideas, great events to go to in hopes that maybe
• 2:46
  one day those eyes will be dotted and this podcast will be sponsored, and
• 2:53
  this podcast will be on the air. It just takes the right messaging,
• 2:55
  the right marketing. I hope to have Ryan on. He is a New
• 3:02
  York City local marketer. I encourage you to follow him as well at b
• 3:09
  Underscore de la Cruse. He does a lot of marketing and he told me,
• 3:15
  tell your story more. But to me, this podcast is about finding
• 3:20
  out how others have one leg up. I guess I show it by rollerblading
• 3:23
  every day, and I visually show you how to have one leg up in
• 3:29
  the city. But then there are others who are actually putting in the work,
• 3:32
  putting in the action and rising the ranks and getting that leg up in
• 3:37
  their industry that I want you to hear from. But for me to cross
• 3:42
  the t's with tavern community and talking Yanks the same day, different fields,
• 3:47
  but same kind of mindset of networking, of getting the brain out there,
• 3:51
  of meeting Aaron Boone, meeting the manager of the Yankees, I mean,
• 3:54
  that was so cool, and now it actually happened was really special. But
• 4:02
  in addition, in addition, I will say, it's given me the confidence
• 4:12
  to go out there and find someone will help me dot the i's. Now
• 4:16
  we've crossed the t's this week. Now, how do we get this podcast
• 4:21
  get on the dotal line and sign something remarkable that don't change this podcast,
• 4:27
  I don't boost this podcast in a reasonable way. That is what this week
• 4:35
  helped me get confidence with. And actually networking is always sort of like an
• 4:42
  extra step in the process. But if you have the confidence who go out
• 4:45
  there and roll lade or however you get to work, or ever you get
• 4:46
  to where you're going to these networking events, if you have that confidence to
• 4:50
  step out the door and say I'm gonna meet new people today, that's your
• 4:55
  first step in crossing your tea's. The old thing I'm going at is we
• 5:00
  all want to cross our t's and dot the i's and make sure everything's buttoned
• 5:03
  up. But to do that, you've got to take those steps. And
• 5:08
  it just happens that tavern community and talking youanks both have teas. So I
• 5:13
  crossed those te's and pushing toward dotting those eyes and putting this podcast further out
• 5:21
  on the map. That is a goal for twenty twenty four. And I
• 5:26
  posted today at three pm. Because of the power of three, the energy
• 5:29
  of three Buddy Harrison took a land in Suffolk County and made it a venue
• 5:35
  where nine million people get to watch baseball and root on the ducks. And
• 5:46
  he only wore the number three. So that energy of number three is carrying
• 5:50
  me this year, and maybe that idea of all right, we've crossed the
• 5:56
  t's literally with tavern community and talk Yanks. Now we've got to take that
• 6:01
  confidence. Say hey, sign me up. You want me to cover events?
• 6:04
  Help me? I can help you. Sign me up. I'd like
• 6:10
  to dot the eyes. I'd like to dot the eyes on the dotted line
• 6:14
  if you will, though there's no eye in my name. You get the
• 6:16
  point. We've crossed the t's. Now we take that confidence as a podcast.
• 6:30
  I take that confidence as a podcaster and work to dot the eyes and
• 6:34
  sign the dotted line to something bigger and better on the Alex Garrett Podcast Network.
• 6:42
  We'll talk to you soon.
