Welcome to Season 5, Episode #1 of Discover the Leader in You! I have a question for you today? Why is it that some entrepreneurs thrive while others just go through the motions and not see the results that they desire? More on that question in a minute, but I want to share…We’re back after a brief sabbatical!

Continued from above: Now some might say, I didn’t have the opportunities other people had, or I just didn’t know the right people or, it just wasn’t meant to be! Well, I have to share with you today that it’s all about mindset and embracing a winning attitude of no matter what you may encounter, you must keep fighting your way through it until you realize your dreams and your goals.
