    363 - Step Into Greatness: How to Be Your Own Hero

    360 - Advice for the New Year

    At the end of the year is always a good time to step back and think about the year to come. Maybe you have some goals that you want to accomplish. Maybe get in better shape and eat better or pick up a new skill. But have you thought about what kind of attributes you want in the next year? In this episode I give you some words of advice of how to approach the new year. “Things do not touch the soul, for they are external and remain immovable; so our perturbations come only from our inner opinions." —Marcus Aurelius Meditations IV.3 Send us a text Want to be a more effective leader?
