Summary

Shopify: Start your $1/month trial at Shopify.com/trent Hey Rehabbers, Let me ask you something real quick. And I want you to actually sit with this one. What are you waiting for? No really. What are you waiting for to finally start? To finally move? To finally become who you keep saying you want to be? Because here's the truth, and it might sting a little. Nothing in your life is going to magically start or grow on its own. Your life isn't going to build itself. Your business isn't going to launch itself. Your healing isn't going to happen by accident. Your purpose isn't going to wake you up one morning and say, "Alright, I'm ready now." You have to create it. In this episode we're talking about the one thing that's standing between you and the life you keep saying you want, and it's not your circumstances, it's not your past, and it's not your resources. It's the decision you keep putting off. This one is for the Rehabber who has been sitting on a dream. Who has been telling themselves "one day" for way too long. Who knows exactly what they need to do but keeps finding reasons to wait. Today we stop waiting. Today we move. Let's go.

It was an experience that I believe changed the personal game, person development game forever. There hasn't been an event like this in a personal development game.
