“You cannot swim for new horizons until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.” - William Faulkner What is the gap in your life that stops you from going from who you are right now to who you want to become?  I’m no stranger to traumas. I’ve dealt with tragedies my entire life. But beyond the seas of sad personal stories, I want you to understand that being intentional also needs hope. You are the story that you create. What do you want to tell the world?  In this episode, listen as I talk about how to live with hope and combat being stuck with where you are by being intentional. Highlights:  ✅ If you do not identify with the person you need to be, you won’t be able to achieve things.  ✅ You are either growing or dying. You have to know that you are meant to grow. You are meant to live and not just merely exist. Fill the gap to reach who you want to become. Some important stories in the episode: ✍? (7:05) Recalling my experience of how traumatic it was to deal with cancer.   ✍? (19:50) Reflecting on George Harrison’s song, Got My Mind Set On You ✍? (31:39) Reflecting on Abraham Maslow’s book, Future Visions. ???????? Do you feel that you are not in control of your life? Are you ready to live to your fullest potential? You can take back control of your life. Join the Mi365’s Start One Stop One Challenge now. You’re going to get seven masterclasses plus a whole load of extras: 1. Who + Why + How = Success 2.
