Welcome to Darin Daily On Demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better

every day.

Here's your success mentor, Darin Hardy.

Good morning, so today I am delighted to take one of your questions in what we call

our Ask Me Anything segment.

Okay, this one comes from Jeff who asked, what is the best approach to take with friends

who I love for sure, but who are subtracting from my new way of thinking and attacking

my focus on growth and achievement?

I know they mean well, but they still tease me about how narrowed my focus and how I'm

not into certain things anymore.

I don't have the time or inclination to give up six hours on a Saturday to go play golf

or four hours to watch a football game every week.

Well, the first thing here, Jeff, is we know how you feel.

Well, at least all of us here on Darin Daily know how you feel and what you are dealing

with.

It happens to all of us when you discover that you are the misfit, the rebel, the troublemaker,

the round peg in the square hole, you are the crazy one, the one who sees things differently.

But Jeff, you know, while most around you see you as the crazy one, we want you to know

we see greatness.

This is such a common phenomenon for us strivers, those of us with the desire to be great,

that I mentioned it in the greatness interview.

Let me remind you about it here.
