Yo, today's QOTS! Sometimes you've got to be willing to leap while you're still quivering. Here we go!

0:30.0

Welcome back to the QOTS! I'm your host, Sean Croxton, a Sean Croxton.com. Thank you so much for

0:39.4

tuning in and happy Monday to you. We've got Lisa Nichols leading off the weekend. Today,

0:44.3

Lisa is going to share a story about your dream. You know, one thing we've talked about on previous

0:50.5

episodes is when you have a dream, you kind of got to let go of the how. You got to let go of, you know,

0:58.4

constantly trying to control how it's going to happen. Because if you just keep that dream

1:04.1

and you trust that it's going to happen and you just work really hard at it and keep plugging away,

2:13.2

other direction, I would sneak. It sounds so stupid to share this out loud with somebody, but it's

2:23.2

the truth. I would sneak and I would smell her white leather couch. You guys remember she said

2:29.6

2:41.4

for 10 years, I would say, I'm gonna be on Oprah and I'm gonna smell her white leather couch.

2:49.6
