Things are always changing. Needs, wants, laws. If you're not ready to respond to those changes, you're going to be left behind. That's especially true when new competition is coming for you. Do you take a risk and innovate, or do you stagnate and also risk being yesterday's news. Also, how much is your word worth? Do you back up what you say? Do you lie? Do you "cry wolf"? And do your lies affect the lives of others? If you can only make one promise today, make a promise to listen to this new episode of Second Shot!

At some point in your life, you've been rejected. Your crush turned you down for a date. You didn't make the team. Someone else was hired.

And when you do go your own way, do you plan to fail? Most of us think about how great the outcomes can be, but the real trick is being ready to fail (and fail hard, sometimes.) You can certainly count on something good happening if you give this episode of Second Shot a listen!

While you're at it, share some of that with your neighbors! The power of positivity is on full display in this week's Second Shot!
