Ep#174 TNR 2.0 the Return Interview with Neal Woodson
Neal returns to the podcast to discuss what he has been up to and his new book "Giving a $#!+: How A Willingness to Be Inconvenienced Can Transform Your Business, Work, and Life." Great discussion about how we approach work. Are we focused on wealth creation versus value creation? Do we focus on the things we can easily measure rather than those that are hard to measure?
