Mindset, Resilience, and the Power of Small Steps with Jordan Benjamin

Feb 26, 2025

Jordan Benjamin is a mindset and sales expert passionate about helping people unlock their full potential. With a background in sales leadership and coaching, Jordan shares insights on resilience, professional growth, and the power of mindset. He emphasizes the importance of taking action, embracing failure, and building a strong network for success.

Three Key Quotes from Jordan Benjamin:

  1. “The best ideas don’t come from grinding at your desk—they come when you create space, like taking a walk or being in the shower.”
  2. “Authenticity is showing up as an imperfect human. None of us have all the answers—we’re all making it up as we go.”
  3. “It’s not about winning or losing—it’s about winning or learning. Every failure is a chance to grow.”

Jordan Benjamin joins the podcast to explore the power of mindset, resilience, and authenticity in professional and personal growth. He shares actionable strategies for overcoming fear, embracing failure, and developing habits that lead to success. From taking small steps to seeking coaching, Jordan’s insights help listeners find their catalyst for lasting change.

Five Key Takeaways:

1. The Power of Nature and Taking Breaks

  • Stepping away from work for a walk or time in nature can spark creativity and reduce stress.
  • Short breaks can be more effective than grinding through mental blocks.
  • Small moments of mindfulness, like deep breathing, can improve focus and decision-making.

2. The Mindset Shift: Growth vs. Fixed Thinking

  • A growth mindset helps you see obstacles as opportunities rather than dead ends.
  • Failure is not the opposite of success—it’s a part of the process.
  • Reframing challenges as learning experiences builds long-term resilience.

3. The Importance of Coaching and Accountability

  • A coach provides an outside perspective that helps you see blind spots.
  • Real change happens between coaching sessions, through consistent action.
  • Accountability helps reinforce new habits, making long-term transformation possible.

4. Authenticity as a Strength, Not a Weakness

  • True leaders embrace their imperfections and encourage vulnerability in others.
  • Everyone struggles with self-doubt—imposter syndrome is normal, even for top performers.
  • Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

5. Taking Small, Consistent Steps Toward Change

  • Massive change starts with small, manageable actions (e.g., one deep breath, one extra sales call).
  • Repetition strengthens habits and rewires the brain for success.
  • Making a goal easy and achievable increases the likelihood of long-term commitment.
