Summary

Motivation is great.

Inspiration is amazing.

Positive affirmations make you feel good.…

But if those things were enough, wouldn’t you already have the life you've been dreaming, writing, visualizing about?

I know that might sound harsh but if using all the pleasant and abundant thoughts haven't gotten you to where you want to be, then *maybe* it’s time to use a different tool…

It might be time to go to the “DARK SIDE"... on this episode of the Own Your Future Podcast I'm going to tell you EXACTLY what that is and how you can use it to keep going on the days when you want to quit.

When nothing else is working THIS could be the tool you need.

Listen... you need DIFFERENT TOOLS for different times because let’s be honest, between the negative news and your own insecurities, just trying to STAY MOTIVATED is hard.

So I believe you need to arm yourself with as many tools as possible, especially right now.

Get ready to EMBRACE your “dark side” so you can become unstoppable as you pursue your next level of success.

And remember to check out the full episode with Tom Bilyeu where we dive deeper into this and so much more, it’s probably one of the most IMPACTFUL interviews I’ve ever done.
