Do you ALWAYS love what you do? I'm guessing the answer is no. There's a misconception that we always have to love what we do and I just wanted to settle it in this podcast. Of course we want to love what we do all the time but often we can't. How do we get through this and still feel empowered? How do we get through the mundane tasks to create the life we really want for ourselves? I answer this question in this podcast because I'm going through it right now as I record it.  

In this podcast I had the privilege to interview my friend Jeff Griffin while we were both speaking at a conference this past weekend. 

For those who don’t know him, Jeff has accomplished some extraordinary things.  Jeff always dreamed of playing sports on the ‘big stage’! As a kid he envisioned playing college football as a receiver. He was one-step closer to fulfilling his dream when the following summer a construction accident left him broken and paralyzed from the waist down. His life and dreams were shattered but not defeated. During those darkened days, he had a decision to make; he could stay down and quit or get back up and succeed. He chose the latter.  He played in the 2004 Paralympic games in Athens Greece and competed in Amsterdam, Holland, as a silver medalist for the USA men’s wheelchair basketball team. Jeff played in the National Wheelchair Basketball Association (NWBA) as a National Champion, and was a 4-time All-Star MVP. He was the #1 men's wheelchair tennis player in the State of Utah and won the St. George Marathon. Jeff also has two Guinness Book of World Records. Griffin started two successful business from scratch and created a non-profit organization called the ‘Road to Recovery’, which impacts thousands of injured vets and physically disabled persons.

We talk about all his next steps along the way and ones he is taking today. We talk about adversity, the best question he was ever asked and who his biggest influence was in his life.
