Setting the pace on the pursuit of happiness, this is the Ken Coleman Show, where you discover

what you were born to do and how to make it happen.

Now, helping you make Mondays great again, Ken Coleman.

A warm welcome from Nashville, you are joining a conversation about who you are, what you

were born to do, where you want to be, and how you can get there.

That's important stuff, so let's get to it.

I'm going to take your calls in a few moments and I'm going to tell a story about the early

journey for Ken Coleman. How did the Ken Coleman Show happen? Did it happen overnight?

No, no, no. It did not. In many of you are on the precipice of stepping out and it looks

daunting and terrifying going to tell you a story that I believe will encourage you because

it is my story and it got all of this moving a long time ago in a very humble fashion.

You can join the conversation 844-747-2577, 844-747-2577.

You can email the show, askitkencomenshow.com, and we'd love for you to connect with us

at our website, kencomenshow.com, social media, specifically Facebook, a great way to communicate

with me. I'm monitoring that page. You can submit questions there, comments, suggestions,

just go to facebook.com slash kencomenshow.com.com.

Well, I want to re-hit a principle that I made up based on my life because it really will touch

a lot of you where you're at. And I developed this principle based on my own journey.

I've talked about it a few times on the show. I'll talk about it a lot because people are coming in

all the time, but it bears repeating. I call it the proximity principle.

And the proximity principle says, in order for me to do what I want to do, I've got to be around people

who are doing it and places where it is happening. Very simple. Nothing profound there.
