According to Business Insider, "Million Dollar Listing" star Ryan Serhant hit rock bottom as an actor before he became a successful real-estate broker in New York City.
He performed in off-Broadway shows and worked as a hand model before switching gears to sales.
On Business Insider's podcast "This is Success," Ryan says that reality hit in 2008 after his debit card was declined.
Ryan explains, "My debit card declined at Food Emporium on 59th Street trying to buy a pack of tofu, and then cried on the subway ..."
The top performing NYC real estate agent said, "That was, like, that moment for the rest of my life that I wanted to run away from as hard as possible, and I had to be shameless about it."
The 'Million Dollar Listing' star says that success comes from a combination of balancing fear, confidence and motivation.
Ryan adds, "Because if you're just afraid all the time, you're never going to do anything. And the flip side, if you're just totally confident all the time, you're going to be an a--hole, and no one's going to ever want to work with you."
