“It takes a certain heroic characteristic to be successful in a world that has different views on how to be successful.” — Brian Buffini
Although a person develops their character based on the adversities they face in life, we’re not preparing people, as a culture, to thrive in our current age of entitlement. In this episode, recorded at Buffini & Company’s The Peak Experience seminar, Brian Buffini delves further into the Oz Dynamic and shares strategies to develop three key characteristics sure to help you succeed in a world that is headed toward entitlement. You’ll learn how to develop the giant within, cultivate the heart of a champion and foster a warrior spirit. By the end of the episode, you’ll be inspired to grow your mind, heart and spirit and hone your heroic characteristics.
