Living a rich, happy life is driven by the decisions you make every single day.

High achievers often fall into the trap of looking to the end result of their goal and don’t realize that the journey is where their happiness lies.

In this episode of Live Life Rich, Marissa interviews author and mindset and high-performance strategist Byron Morrison about his new book and what it takes to create a happy life.

• Byron’s new book, Maybe You Should Give Up, and what its message is

• What Byron’s turning point in life was, and why things changed when he realized he was his own worst enemy
• How you can overcome the comparison trap

• Why living in the present can be so empowering
• Some practical strategies for overcoming past traumas that may keep us from moving forward
