Have you ever felt completely overextended in work or your personal life? How much of this was because of choices or opportunities that were presented to you that may seem great at the beginning but in time proved to not meet your intended goals or outcomes?

This week's Firefighter Craftsmanship podcast we dive back into the fantastic Jim Collins book titled Good to Great and specifically look a the Hedgehog concept.

In this episode we cover:

• What is the Hedgehog concept and why is it filled with sound advice?
• Things we can do at our level to define and hone our hedgehog concept
• How to build personal wins using the hedgehog concept and how it can benefit all areas of our lives
