About this episode

Today's episode is all about figuring out what you're good at. So many people spend hours a day trying to "round themselves out" or wonder why they can't do certain things. When in reality the keys to success rely on focusing in on your strengths. Figure out what you are good at and do it, forever. For example, I'm one of the only people I know that can work 18 hours a day every day. Thats my competitive advantage, that's what I'm good at... so I do it. Find what that is for you and you will never look back.

Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
