Summary

Can you imagine living a life that is so amazing you don’t believe it’s actually possible? Gary Keller says that you’re never more than five years away from where you want to be – if you intentionally surround yourself with the right people, follow proven models and systems, and implement the guidance given to you, you are no more than five years from that seemingly-impossible life. In this episode, Brindley Tucker shares a remarkable story, for the first time on a public platform, that demonstrates how you can go from an incredible low – a rock bottom that most of us will never have to face – and still turn your life around. The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We recognize the importance of occasionally stopping to acknowledge what we're experiencing in our lives... and we shared this story because we don't want you to wait until something horrible happens that forces you to acknowledge it. We suggest that you begin by asking for help. Step One: Identify where you need help. If you reflect on your life, what is the ONE area that you most need help? Step Two: Identify who you can ask. Who is somebody that will be receptive to helping you? Step Three: Open up your calendar and identify when you will reach out to them, and then take action. In this episode you will learn... [14:30] Why you're not responsible for your first thought (but you are responsible for your second). [18:10] How enlisting the right support can reveal something great that you may not see in yourself. [32:20] The ONE thing you need to do before you can surround yourself with the right people.
