868 Brian Grazer: The Art of Human Connection

PEOPLE ARE BETTER THAN WIFI
Often, we have talent. We work hard and practice our craft.
But something holds us back from reaching our highest potential.
Often the things holding us back are fear, doubt, and a lack of self-confidence.
Do you have trouble talking to new people in crowded rooms?
Are you able to make eye contact when speaking to your peers?
Those are some of the things we need to do to improve our relationships.
If not, we could be limiting our growth potential.
Making better connections is possible, and the rewards are tremendous.
It’s up to you. Become more than the work, be the story behind the work.
Allow people to connect with that, and there are no limits to what you can accomplish.
In today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk about how the importance of making personal connections with the author, film producer, and movie legend: Brian Grazer.
