in this last podcast episode we go over the last three questions. The tenacity question, the fulfillment question, and lastly the significance question.The best way to describe the Tenacity question is by a quote from H. Jackson Browne. “Rule #1 take one more step. Rule #2 when you can’t take one more step, refer to rule number one. “ 🔥🔥 Need I really say more? Listen to the podcast friend and develop more tenacity! The Fulfillment question is very important. Because sometimes we can just be in work mode and not really align working on our dream with being satisfied as we work towards the goal. Be intentional to take notes on how you can wake up fulfilled every day!The Significance question is the last question of the book and will empower you to keep going when you don’t feel a personal motivation to work towards your dream.  Enjoy!!(00:15) What are you excited about?(1:25) The Tenacity Question(03:45) Watch your vocabulary (08:00) Changing our Mindset(10:12) Meet our Sponsor(10:46) How to move closer to your dreams(15:18) Our Next Book!!(15:45) The Fulfillment Question(18:00) How so we wake up fulfilled everyday(19:15) Understand the Fulfillment Gap(24:00) The Significance QuestionSpecial shout out to our sponsor Rachel Broadwell our preferred mortgage loan originator on the Shut the Fear Up Podcast! Follow us everywhere on social media! @shutthefearup on Facebook, Instagramand Twitter.   ***Dr. Marie Cochran is a certified leadership coach and trainer  with the John Maxwell Program.

In our personal lives, our marriage, and in our finances, it has always proven to be the common denominator in shifting things for us.
