Ever catch yourself thinking, “If only I’d made a different choice…”? That’s if-only-itis, and it can keep you stuck in regret instead of moving toward your dreams. In this episode of The BIGG Success Show, George and Mary-Lynn share three powerful steps to cure if-only-itis and take back control of your life. You’ll discover how to shift from “if only” to “what if,” determine which goals are worth pursuing, and challenge the limiting beliefs that hold you back. George even shares his own story of how examining the fit led him back to college after dropping out.
