Summary
“You can do it, but you gotta have your mind made up.” — Therese Buffini
What do all successful people have in common? They’ve made up their minds to win long before the first victory. In this episode, Brian discusses the power of a made up mind and shares inspiring stories from his own life and the lives of people who’ve defied the odds.
You’ll learn five benefits of harnessing the power of your own made-up mind, how to turn negative feedback into lessons, and the importance of making a decision, no matter how big or small.
Brian also asks the two questions to consider when you want to make up your mind to live the life you’ve always dreamed of. Whether you’re struggling to reach your goals or you just want to get motivated to thrive in 2017, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

| 0:19.3 | of success. |
| 0:20.3 | Here's your host, Brian Bafini. |
| 0:30.0 | Well, the top of the morning to you. |
| 0:34.0 | Thanks for joining me on today's podcast. |
| 0:37.2 | People always ask me, what do I listen to? |
| 0:39.2 | I've also been asked this, what do you listen to that you've produced yourself? |
