What if the reason you feel stuck isn't a lack of motivation… but a lack of clarity?

In this episode of Quest for Success, Dr. Jerry Cunningham walks you through how to create a personal mission statement, define a compelling vision for your life, and build a vision board that actually works. This isn't about motivational fluff or wishful thinking. You'll learn how clear goals reshape your focus, how identity drives behavior, and why your brain performs better when it has a target to aim at.

By the end of this episode, you'll know how to stop drifting and start deciding, so your time, energy, and habits align with the future you want to build. If you're ready to move from hoping things improve to intentionally designing your next season, this episode will give you the framework to begin.
