Top takeaways
Seize the "W.O.O!"
A W.O.O is a Window of Opportunity-a precious, unrepeatable moment that can impact, redirect, and even reshape our lives, once we recognize and choose to seize them. Brian describes how we can seize and act upon the Windows of Opportunity that we encounter to transform our lives. Growing is all about creating opportunities and your Window of Opportunity enables you to see and seize opportunities you create.
"The past is history. The future of mystery, the gift is now. That's why we call it the present."
Being fully present is the key to building people, trust, and balance

@Gillian135 I have to constantly remind myself of this with my kids and my spouse. It’s ridiculous how easy it is—especially with smarphones, headphones, tv, etc—to neglect to be fully present for others. It’s a work in progress…

Yea he makes such a good point here. Energy is infectious and taking ownership of your own energy is such an important thing we can do. I like that he leads by example here with his energy 🔥

@Joseph-Hollingworth this is close to the law of attraction but explained in the right way I feel. Also @Joe-Clark loving your mindset stuff. You might enjoy this 🤷
2 years ago·2 likes·Nice episode Sam. The story about his daughters and the telephone was great. Brian is one of those interviews where you just kind of step back and let him monologue. That said, you did a great job of letting him do his thing.
