Welcome to the John Maxwell Leadership Podcast. My name is Jason Brooks co-hosting once again with Mark Cole.

And we are back this week with part two of Put Your Dream to the Test.

In this episode, John is talking about the ownership question, which is, is my dream really my dream?

And John's going to pick up and give us some ways that we know we are genuinely owning our dream.

So if you haven't, go to Maxwellpodcast.com forward slash dream, click on the bonus resource button

and go ahead and grab the notes for this lesson because you're going to want to write down what John is talking about.

Mark and I'll be back in just a few minutes to talk with you a little bit about what John is sharing.

And I thought, oh my gosh, great story ever told. This would be amazing.

And I opened it up and the pages were all blank. They're all blank.

I thought, the greatest story ever told, there's nothing.

And I looked at her and she was watching me as she could see the puzzle.

You know, great story ever told. There's nothing in the pages.

She said, go to the front book.
