Check Out Charles Bradford’s Story

Today we’d like to introduce you to Charles Bradford.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I was approached by a man (who I still work with today and serves as my mentor) while I was at work and when we talked briefly and he asked me two questions…was I happy with what I was doing and do I aspire to make additional outcome outside of my job. I answered his questions and we exchanged contacts. When I went home, I immediately told people who knew NOTHING about business or people who didn’t aspire to do much. Months later he walks in again shopping with his wife. He drastically changed his life meanwhile I was doing the same I was doing seven months prior. I didn’t value the materialistic things or the lifestyle he had… I valued what he DID to get there. We reconnected and the rest is history. Now he’s one of my closest friends and mentor in business.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
The road will NEVER be smooth. You have to invest into yourself and change your mindset and the rest WILL follow. My biggest obstacle right now for me is just getting out in the marketplace Daily. I talk and connect with people from time to time but I don’t get out daily and do it CONSISTENTLY. All it takes is a second to say hello to someone and strike a conversation. You’ll never know the outcome until you try… wouldn’t that be considered selfish if you didn’t?..

Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I have an e-commerce business and I find a need and fill it with what I have!

I’m known for just stepping outside of my comfort zone and getting things done, for being loyal, and just for being a hard worker. I’m most proud of how far I’ve come and will continue to go.

What sets me apart from others?… I believe in the perseverance that I have… to continue to just go after it day by day in any way I can.

We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
True success to me is not just having any and everything you want… but to help others get to where they want to be in a way I can. But to be successful you have to be willing to be coachable/Teachable and apply.
