471 Brad Borkan ~ Goal Setting for Adventures and Life
Manage episode 336074319 series 1066922
I'm excited to introduce this week's guest, Brad Borkan. This is Brad's third time on the show. He was a guest on episodes 422 and 370, where we talked about Adventures in Audacious Goal Setting and How Outdoor Adventures Can Help You Make Better Decisions In Life.
Now he's back, and we're talking about goal setting for our adventures and other areas of life. I find that when I achieve a goal in my adventures, it really expands my perspective of what's possible for me in other areas of life, too. And that goes both ways.
I hope you find this episode interesting and useful, and I hope it inspires you to do joyful and exciting things in life.
