#41 Shawn Anderson is appreciating the moment with his Extra Mile America, where he showcases people who go the "extra mile" in their communities.

He started this non-profit to help people go the extra mile within themselves. Shawn believes we should appreciate the moment we are in because we don't know what will happen next in our lives.

He refers to The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolie, a very powerful read, and how positive words, thoughts equal positive energy. We talked about how the news can control your energy subconsciously. One should be very deliberate in how they monitor their outside energy.

Shawn appealed to mayors across America for them to showcase people in their community who go the extra mile and the first year 23 mayors participated. Now, it has grown substantially.

Shawn has written 7 books and built a Business College. He believes these 2 things changed his life, 1) The people he has met, and 2) the books he's read. Books define who we are and what we believe.
