H2H Lightning Round

What is holding you back from greater success? If I only know what I know, it could be holding me back from who I can become. The only thing that could be holding me back is me.

Who do you look to the most for advice? Viktor Frankl. Joseph Campbell. Carl Jung.

What is your best personal productivity suggestion? Discipline gives me freedom.

What is one thing that has you excited to be working on right now? Talking to Bryan Kramer and my book because it is something I am extremely passionate about.

If you had to start over tomorrow knowing what you know now but you don’t get to take the money with you, just the knowledge, what’s the first thing you would do to build your career back up? I would ask myself “How can I make an impact today and with who can I serve today?”.
