| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Nobody Told Me. I'm Jan Black. And I'm Laura Owens. What's the secret to success? What's the |
| 0:19.0 | formula for achieving your biggest goals in life? Our guest on this |
| 0:23.8 | episode, Hal Elrod, says the answer to those questions is simple. Hal is the author of the |

| 0:35.5 | The Two Decisions that Move Your Biggest Goals from Possible to Probable to Inevitable. Hal, thank you, called The Miracle Equation, the two decisions that move your biggest goals from possible to |
| 0:39.0 | probable to inevitable. Hal, thank you so much for joining us today. It is not only as an honor to |
| 0:45.4 | be here, but as a former radio DJ and now podcaster, Jan and Laura, you have like the best |
| 0:51.4 | voices I've ever heard. Oh my gosh. Thank you. Starting off with flattery. Yeah, I don't know if you were born with that or I think you practiced, obviously, because he's done a lot of episodes. But anyway, so it's an honor to be here, and I was super impressed listening to you guys introduced the episode. Wow. Thank you so much. Wow.
