Summary

In today's show, we discuss the topic of looking for opportunities. Many people wait for success to come to them. They get stuck in a rhythm that looks good, but is really preventing growth. This type of satisfactory mentality accepts good over great and if not tempered leads to rationalization and even justification of why someone else gets better results. Looking for opportunities starts inside first. Ask the question, "Am I even open to opportunity?" For all of us, it is easy to fall into a stagnant state of mind. Once you are able to overcome your own head trash, you can than move into application. Now that your eyes are open to seeing opportunities, you can begin learning what to do with them when they present themselves. Hosts Brian and Nate dig into this topic and how we can all make a determination to keep an open mind.
