My guest today, on the very first episode of “Join Up Dots” is a man who quite simply changed my life.

I don’t think that there are many people alive that I could say that about.

But strangely enough until today I have never met him or spoke to him live.

He spent the beginning of his childhood in the Chicagoland and West Michigan areas, and then with all his siblings…three brothers and three sisters gained his education at the United States Military Academy at West Point NY.

Upon graduating he decided that there was a further step to go in his military life and was deployed to Iraq as a gun truck platoon leader.

You might have thought after so many years in an organised, structured environment such as the military, he would cling to a safe, organised future.

But our guest thought otherwise and set off on entrepreneurial path that has seen him write three books, become the president of his own publishing company, and generally having a kick ass life.

He travels the world with his lovely wife Courtney, his trusty laptop, and now today shares with us, the fears, achievements and success that has made up his life.

I would like to welcome to show the one and only Tom Morkes | Show notes: http://joinupdots.com/podcast/tom-morkes-episode-1/
