Summary

 

So often the difference between victimhood and victory is a personal decision. We’ll look at that in our Thought of the Day. And in our interview segment, you’ll meet a man I greatly admire, and who will absolutely take anyone’s excuses away, and who does it with more than a touch of magic. That and more on today’s show.

 

Bob’s Thought of the Day

 

We’ll explore:

 

  • An important truth: you cannot live in victimhood AND become a victor.
  • What it takes to be victorious and overcome tragic events or situations of victimhood: you must make a decision that you will not allow yourself to be defined by those events.
