Meet Willman Morcillo

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Willman Morcillo. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Willman , we’re so excited for our community to get to know you and learn from your journey and the wisdom you’ve acquired over time. Let’s kick things off with a discussion on self-confidence and self-esteem. How did you develop yours?

Growing up, I realized early on, that putting the way I feel about myself in the power of other people, was going to be shaky, at best. Even if they had good intentions, it was my life and my experience of life that was more important to me.
It took a while for me to navigate those with actual good intentions and those pretending to be helpful.
The basic criteria for this was, how I was left after interacting with someone. If I was uplifted, their intentions were good. If I was left diminished or doubtful or confused, their intentions were not good for me.
You can ask if sometimes people can come down hard on you and it’s useful. It could be, but the truth is that you are still the only one that can decide if it’s helpful or not. For example…years ago, a business coach came down hard on me and I felt pretty awful. Maybe he was trying to be helpful but he upset me more than helped me. But I decided afterwards that I would take value from it despite his demeaning delivery. Still my choice. I think it should always be one’s choice. I hope this is clear.

Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?

I’ve been a professional musician in Southern California, as well as South Korea, for over 20 years now. I’ve managed a nightclub successfully and co-produced salsa dancing Meetups that went from 20 people to over 750 in 3 years, with events all over Seoul.

I’ve been a professional soccer player and Olympic Development Coach as well, helping players pursue their high school, college and professional dreams.

I also coach people individually and in groups to create powerful context shifts that alter the quality, fulfillment and results of their lives.

Ever since I was a child, the thing I have found most fascinating, as well as frustrating and fulfilling, is personal relationships. The people we love, the people we work with and our social circles. I’m committed to making all of it better and smoother and more enjoyable for all of us, and ultimately, that is the purpose of my life.

“Better human relations. Anywhere. Anytime. No matter the circumstances.”

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

1. A clear vision. If you really don’t know where you are going, then you will end up anywhere and everywhere. If you don’t have clarity, then pray or chant or ask for that. How will you know when you have clarity? You’ll be in action right away.
You won’t be talking about it or thinking about or looking any deeper. You’ll be “IN IT.”

2. Self determinism. An absolute, unwavering faith in yourself, your vision, and / or what you do. If you don’t have the skills or knowledge, it doesn’t matter, as long as you have the desire and commitment to get better and learn. What if things aren’t going well? Get out of that “headspace.” You need to be in clear waters in order to convert your dreams into reality.

3. Surround yourself with well intentioned people. How do you know who they are exactly? Here’s a tip…The people you talk to are surrounded by good people, doing well in life and being well supported when they need it too.

4. Never give up on your dreams. There is nothing wrong with them. Maybe they need a better plan and some reorganizing, but the dream is perfect the way it is.

5. Whatever happens, is your journey to make. No matter who’s fault you think it is. If it’s bad, devote all your energy to getting out as fast as possible, so you can spend your time on what’s truly important to you and your loved ones.

Okay, so before we go we always love to ask if you are looking for folks to partner or collaborate with?

I’m looking to connect with people that have other resources that would compliment mine.

For example…I’ve got content to educate and inspire people with, so I’m looking for people that are in charge of groups, or if someone has a venue we can use to host an event. Online marketing skills as well. These are just a few examples.
