Speaker: Anthony Harrell Jr
What is one specific way Detra’s coaching, podcast, or message changed the way you think or approach your life or goals?
Anthony Harrell Jr: I like to say that this coaching has helped me become more organized and more solution-oriented when it comes to attacking my goals. One thing that Dietra is, she's the true definition of at first you don't succeed, dust yourself off and try again. She is the type of person that will provide a plan B, C, D, E, even F. Because the bottom line is, she's not gonna let me give up. She's not gonna let me try a couple of things and just, go down in the gutter. That's not who she is, because if there's a will, there is a way. She's gonna keep pushing me to my limits until I actually become successful in whatever I attack. And that's one thing I appreciated the most because I, after a few trials and tribulations, me, me personally want things done immediately. I have to, I have to realize I need to take a step back and actually find some structure. I have to fail over and over. I have to fall down 7 times just to get back up 8. And with Dietrich being by my side, it's, it's, it's. It's been a game changer, that's for sure.
Share a moment when something Detra said inspired you to take action, trust your next step, or see an opportunity you hadn't noticed before.
Anthony Harrell Jr: So for a while I thought I was on the chopping block at my job, and I was, I was sitting with Deidre talking about it as far as, what's going on, what's happening, how can I improve. So when I broke down my various tasks and what I do on a day to day basis. She made it very clear that, I just had to sit back and be still, I can't let my emotions run over me, because those same emotions could be the very reason why they escort me out the door, so. She referenced, she referenced a scripture to me at one point, Psalms 46:10, where it says, Be still and know that I am God, and that right there I actually took it a step further with that, I fasted for 3 days, and on day 3 I went to my superiors and asked for a raise, and they actually gave me more than what I was asked. So I was like, OK, alright, sometimes you just need that reminder like you are doing OK, you're doing just fine, you just have to be patient with the process and trust the process. So I can definitely appreciate that.
If someone was considering working with Detra or following the I See Fishes Framework, what would you tell them?
Anthony Harrell Jr: I would say, listen, just, just finish, just finish. You're gonna find days, you're gonna find time, you're gonna find every excuse to miss the coaching, miss the meetings, miss the podcast, you're gonna find every excuse to not, to not see it through because you're not seeing the results you want in the fashion that you wanted. One thing that I would, one thing that I strongly encourage anybody out there who wants to, follow the I see fishes framework. Just keep going. Don't start it. Don't start it just to not finish, OK, like, cause once again, we as human beings, we're impatient, it's OK, but just keep going because you never know how this program could benefit you in your life.
