Success is not dependent upon your position as head of the class, nor is it singularly related to being voted most likely to succeed. In fact, you can create significant success without a far-reaching vision - But you do have to dream and believe, and you do have to be willing to do what most won't. That was the not-so-secret trick that our guest today, Former Obama White House Official and current CEO of Values Partnerships and Gauge, knew and practiced. He found success despite not being the most prolific performer in school and not being the biggest visionary to dream a dream. That fact is what makes today's episode so powerful. Joshua has a message for those who don't wake up every day feeling like the world is their oyster. Today's episode is powerful, so please tune in and let Joshua help guide you to your gift.
