About This Episode:

Most of us share the faulty belief that if we just DO something long enough, or well enough, with enough grit and determination, we'll finally BECOME the person we want to be.

right now to make your goals and your intentions a reality. Not what do you have to do,

You can be as happy as you make up your mind to be.
