| 0:07.4 | low? And the answer, if you're listening to this, is probably yes. And I'm going to be talking about |
| 0:13.4 | which areas of your life and what it looks like and what you can do about it instead. Firstly, |
| 0:19.3 | you've got to identify, am I setting the bar too |
| 0:21.4 | low? And I'm going to tell you what's wrong with setting the bar too low because pretty much everything. |
