P.S. I realized a rather obvious thing. Most of us listen to podcasts like this but never act on it. You can only learn and get better results from the insights when you L.P.T. – listen, practice deliberately and tell/teach others, whether they are colleagues, friends or family. I hope you L.P.T., whatever you glean from this podcast.
