On this episode, Les Brown explains how conquering yourself and mastering your mind…is the first step to winning in life.

On the off-chance that you haven’t heard of Les, you owe it to yourself to go to YouTube and watch one of his many videos. If you don’t come away inspired to take on the world, you might not have a pulse. Les inspires listeners to examine what they’re doing with their lives and to ask themselves if they’re truly giving and getting all they can from life.

Les has been many things in his career in addition to being a motivational speaker. He was a member of the Ohio House of Representatives, a radio DJ, a talk show host and an author. Just before Paul talked with Les, he was given the great news that he was cancer-free.
