In this episode, I speak with coach and mind-strategist Will Polston, the Founder of Make It Happen. Will's mission is to empower one billion people to transform their excuses into results to benefit themselves, their family, their friends, their community, society, humanity and the universe - what he calls the Ripple Effect.Will is a brilliant young man and a natural ally for my own One Billion Happy mission. Like many of us whose paths drifted toward self-development, Will grew up equating money with happiness. After having a "lightning moment" at a Tony Robbins event, he broke down in tears as he finally recognized the obstacles holding him back from his true life purpose. He began pursuing it aggressively and now helps others do the same.Listen as we discuss:Finding a grand ambition to serve as your 'north star'The Navy Seal-inspired mentality for getting closer to your purpose in focused stepsWill's 'Scrooge Method' for identifying and eradicating obstaclesHow finding one positive in a negative situation can unravel an infinite chain of benefits and silver liningsThis episode is part of our Silver Linings theme.Instagram: @mo_gawdatFacebook: @mo.gawdat.officialTwitter: @mgawdatLinkedIn: /in/mogawdatConnect with Will on Instagram @willpolston, on Facebook @willpolstonmih, on Twitter @willpolston and make-it-happen.co.ukDon't forget to subscribe to Slo Mo for new episodes every Monday and Thursday.
