Ep 24: Scott Peckford – Harnessing Willpower to Achieve Success

Episode Summary:
Scott used to be a paramedic before becoming a mortgage broker. The transition was not without challenges. At the outset of his new career, he was told right up front that he wasn't cut out for this job. However, that didn’t deter him from achieving his objective. “I needed to be told I couldn't do it,” Scott recalls, and he still believes that was the best thing that anyone could’ve done to him. It pushed him to do all in his power to get to where he is now.
