Episode 781: The Ten Best and Worst Deci...

JAMES WEDMORE
About this episode

What if you could look back on your life and say, "that was one of the best decisions I ever made"? How do you learn the art and science of making those incredible, life-changing choices? Last week in Part One of this mini-series, I shared my list of the worst decisions, but today, we're diving into my 10 best. I don't just share these for the stories; I share them for the lessons behind them.

We're pulling back the curtain on the surreal synchronicity of my proposal to Jenni, and the powerful tapes that cracked me open and led me on my spiritual path. I'm also revealing the business decisions that formed what Business By Design is today, why I made the bold choice to move to Sedona, and so much more.

Ultimately, it all comes down to one powerful thread. If you want to make more decisions that you're proud of, you need to hear what it is!
