Description
On today’s show, we interview Joe Tedesco, one of our successful alumni who joined our program back in 2016 and completed an $81,000 business with a profit of $15,000.    What is unique about Joe’s story is that he was the very last intern hired that year (it was early to mid-April) and he had to figure out very quickly how to get started in this business. But he had a very strong mindset that helped him become one of our top managers that year.   For Joe, failure was not an option. He was driven and motivated, even though no one had ever done this before, starting late in mid to late April and running a successful business that was one of the tops in the country.   Today, Joe is a sales manager at Skyline Solar and he is also the owner of Tedesco Painting, an interior restoration company   In this episode, Joe is going to talk about this incredible journey and the lifelong impact this experience had on him.   He will also share how our internship motivated him to stay in college, will talk about how being an underdog was a very powerful motivational tool for him, will share some of the most important lessons he took away from YEAA, will reveal the key secret to becoming the best leader you can be, and so much more.   Enjoy!

The importance of having a strong mindset in order to succeed.  Some of the most important lessons Joe took away from YEAA.
