We live our lives on auto pilot falling into the same traps that complicate our existence, but feel powerless to change our circumstances as if a force greater than ourselves is in control instead. 

In this episode of Business Talks with the Rebel Entrepreneur, the Rebel Entrepreneur herself discusses the reasons behind the gap and some strategies for switching off auto pilot so you can take action.

What is success? Well, that depends on who you ask. For some, it's measured by the money in their bank account or how many possessions they have. For others, the meaning is totally different. Everyone's definition is as unique to them as their fingerprints.
