We all have a story we tell ourselves. Whether it is true or not is a question we must ask ourselves because this story determines our path toward the future. If the story is not true, we could be undermining our chance at success. In today’s episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about the story we tell ourselves and how it affects the course our lives are taking. They share their own stories, their beliefs, and how it has shaped their lives. Sometimes the story we believe holds us back from opportunities that could help us achieve our goals. It determines the kind of path we take and how soon we achieve our dreams. We need to learn to validate negative stories to stop fear in its tracks and steer our course toward our goals.
