With doing the calls for 1 of 7 this week, I received some interesting feedback.

Delayed action is frequently the largest determining factor in our success (or lack thereof). I learned this the hard way on a late night drive home from Chicago. As you’ll soon find out, my delayed action caused me some pain, a bit of embarrassment, and certainly created an uncomfortable situation. Listen to see how pinching it doesn’t pay.

Last week I received some feedback from a long-time listener. Truthfully, it wasn’t so pretty. She thought certain episodes sounded a bit forced and that maybe it was time for me to stop podcasting.
