Have you reached your fed-up threshold? Are you tired of settling for good, rather than aiming for great? Are you ready to leave your comfort zone? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this episode will inspire you to make use of those feelings and take the leap from a good life to Best Life.  

Although it sounds like a simple thing, the skill of decision-making is what differentiates champions from the rest of the population, in business and in life. In today’s episode, we discuss how champions make decisions, the mindset that guides their decision-making process, and how you can become one of them. 

The power lies entirely within you to stop worrying about what you can’t change, focus on what you can, and change your life, and the lives of those around you, for the better.
