The Jordan Harbinger Show
1129: Russ Swain | The Good Mormon Who Made Bad Money

Coming up next on The Jordan Harbinger Show. How can I think outside the box? And I thought, okay, remember that postage stamp? That was clever, and it was thinking outside the box. And I will say, being clever doesn't prevent you from doing things that are stupid. It enables you to do more grandiose forms of stupidity.

And my friend Mike says, but you can't beat yourself up about that. Without those mistakes that we make, our lives would be little more than a paper puppet show. He says, the name we give our mistakes is experience. And if you can accept that, forgive yourself and move on and learn from it, then you're maybe there's something cathartic about this. So that was the approach we took.

And it was cathartic to just open up, give yourself a little bit of self-acceptance and say, you know what, we make mistakes and we move on from them.

Yeah, that was my first attempt at counterfeiting. After art school, there was one potential job in Ogden, Utah. It was an advertising agency. They were looking for an art director. And they said, we don't want to see anything but a resume. And I thought, well, how am I going to stand out among the other applicants.

And so, the resume that I sent in, I said, if you're reading my resume, it's a testament that I know how to think outside the box because I hand painted the postage stamp in which it came in. And they quickly grabbed the envelope and they were rubbing their finger over it, examining it. My gosh, the postage stamp was hand painted. That's pretty damn creative.
