The WIN-WIN Effect

In this episode, I take you through the things that get in the way of achieving, maximizing, and activating the greatness inside of you.  I'm only going to talk about five -- I call them the 4 Fallacies that Trap Leaders & Kill Futures.  Those 5 fallacies are (1) I'm a decision machine, (2) I need to be selfless, (3) I'm on my own, (4) I'm responsible, and (5) I know the truth.  Believing in those 5 fallacies put me in a place that I've come to call the Valley of Uncertainty; it's a place where entrepreneurs and leaders of all kinds go or fall into or get trapped; they zap energy and they zap competence and they zap thinking about the future. I discuss each fallacy in this episode and what I did to recognize them and then overcome them.  I hope this episode inspires, activates, and maximizes your willingness and your ability to start telling the story you want to tell, the one that will make your future your property.If you like this episode and want to be the first to know when new ones are released?

In this episode, I talk about the walls we build around us that not only prevent you from leading the life you are capable of living, but they also obstruct your view of what's on the other side -- where your future is.  I talk about how you can identify those walls so you can start chipping away at them and start to see what's out there -- behind the walls -- and become exactly what you want to become.If you like this episode and want to be the first to know when new ones are released?

In this episode, let me share the importance of setting goals. Whether short-term or long-term, goal setting is the way to go for a fulfilling life. Goals help you focus only on the direction you want to go; it allows you to measure your progress and enables you to overcome procrastination. At the end of the day, achieving your goals are a reward in and of itself.
