  • Season 1 Retrospective Part 1
    Welcome Dragons! Today we look back at the first season of the https://plainordinarydragon.com (Plain Ordinary Dragon) PODcast. We compiled some clips and highlights from each episode to share with you today along with some of my thoughts on each. I had a fun time editing this episode, and I hope you get as much joy out of listening as I did editing. This, however is only the beginning. There were too many great clips to get them all in on one episode, so next week we will finish up with part 2 of the retrospective. It’s always good to look back and see what we can learn from the past so we have more success in forging the future.

From business to life choices to relationships, persistence is key. On today’s show, I discuss some of my challenges and some of the ways that I view them and the solutions to overcoming them.

About Plain Ordinary Dragon

From the publisher's feed

Plain Ordinary Dragon was originally born as a concept back in 2006, while I was going through the Dale Carnegie class “How to Win Friends and Influence People”. During one of the exercises, I came to realize just how amazing each and every person in the class was, if, I took the time to really get to know & understand them. Not just the folks who have accomplished impressive feats, built businesses, hiked the Appalachian Trail, or participated in historic events, but the single mom who has overcome a deck of life stacked against her to successfully stand on her own terms or the woman who lost her family in 9/11 or, You.
