I guess it works but the human experience doesn’t allow for that.” - Chris Leon “I had to take on adversity from a battle perspective. I had to go to war, I had to defeat adversity. That worked for a very long time, but it doesn’t work for me anymore so I had to find a new way.” - Chris Leon “That’s the thing that kills me the most, when people play the game hard and they play for 5 years and stop before they blew up on year 6 or they work doing things they have for 40 years then get sick when they finally stop to do their dream.” - Host Dave Swillum Chris’s Links Chris’s Website IG @coach_chris_leon @movewt Resources Noted In This Episode Understanding The Mind Waking Up From Work Podcast Links IG / Tik Tok / Clubhouse / Twitter / HiHo Follow & DM Me! @davewakeup Merch To Support Us!
