This is what we spoke about during the episode

  • It's the journey that counts, not the destination.
  • “The secret of change is to focus all your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” — Socrates

  • Changing the way that you think about yourself will shift all of your actions. And therefore your life!
  • “Twenty years from now you’ll be more disappointed by the things you did not do than the ones you did.” — Mark Twain
