In this episode David shares a strange experience with a customer.  He shares initially he debated whether to ask the gentleman to leave because he was rude and agitated.  But he realized something was going on in this mans world and he's at his breaking point.  As David helps the man they begin to chat about his day.  David comes to realize this customer had an extremely hard week and an even worse day.  When the customer is checking out at the register he begins to sob.  Unsure of what's happening, David ask him if he's ok? The gentleman then explains no one has shown him a single act of kindness and its all he needed.  A simple reminder that we can make a difference but just by being present in the moment...and being kind to others.

This is a lost episode David never released. In this episode David gets an email asking him, "How did you always stay positive?" He shares how difficult it was to always stay positive and he learned choosing your attitude matters. In the beginning he allowed everything to affect his attitude which damaged his career. David shares insight that being negative creates an environment of people not wanting to work with you. He learned to make a conscious choice to stay positive. Learn to step away from the environment, reset, and come back in to do your job. Also, learn to stay objective about your environment. Some environments are so toxic you may need to make a change.

In this episode David defines why its so important to stay a student of life.  You will continuously face challenges in life which will require your leadership.  Your leadership in life will help shape your decisions and changing your life.  Life is filled with unpredictable obstacles that will push you to your breaking point.  How hungry are you to learn?  In school we sacrifice time to learn and earn a degree.  How much time have you sacrificed to invest in yourself?  It all comes at a cost…time.  David shares how he didn’t know how to build a website or podcast but his hunger to figure it out became obsessive until he did.  It's time to take action.  Stop waiting….DO IT NOW!
