Summary

Face Your Passion: Building Your Bridge Changing something about your life is pretty straightforward.  Figure out what you want and change it. Are you done laughing? Most folks fall on the way to their dreams because they don't move, move at the wrong time, or move too fast. That's why, once you know what you want, it's time to build your bridge. Here’s how: 1) Fortify your current foundation. Save money, pay bills, do whatever it takes to create a firm and peaceful base to build. 2) Begin constructing the foundation for your new life. Go to school, network, research, and plan. Do everything in your power to assure your success with no regret. 3) When you're ready, leave your past behind, cut off the old, and begin living your new life. Be patient. Wait until you are at least 70% ready to succeed before you cross to the other side.   Success arrives when you move from a strong TODAY to a stronger TOMORROW. Don’t leap too soon, but don’t delay either.

And every year about this time, I do it again about facing your passion, about I like to talk about, but I also like to talk about building your bridge. As a guy who coaches a lot of people, the bridge is the most difficult part. So if you're trying to get from here to there and you don't know how. Listen closely today, if you haven't heard this, if you have heard it, listen again. It's, it's brand new. I mean, I'm doing it a new for you. So it's nothing, but I'm not repeating anything. Okay.

How to be happy again. And if I can be happy and bring you some energy and give you some ideas and somehow get you from where you are to where you want to go. Maybe a little bit closer today.
