The Art of Success
Last weekend while on a road trip, I was listening to the first of a four part series by David Neagle called The Art of Success.

Read MoreWhat is Your Comfort Zone?
How do you know what your current comfort zone is? Everything you are experiencing in your life right now is directly proportional to your comfort zone. If you are making $50,000 per year, $75,000 per year is outside your comfort zone. If you are living in a mediocre marriage, a great marriage is outside your comfort zone.
