Summary

My guest this week is Jim, who is taking a course that will license him for his motorcycle. But his teacher is wasting his time, he thinks. The teacher is an egomaniac; he’s self-absorbed, annoying, and so all over the place that Jim is afraid he won't pass the test. How will Jim see past the stressful thoughts that are upsetting him so greatly? Join Jim and me as we do a little motorcycle maintenance on his mind. Let's do The Work.
