Audience Comments

- “This webinar had so much good advice, presented in such a straightforward, simplistic manner, but the thing that has stuck with me the most is when Marc talked about recognizing what your best is each day. Sometimes my best is highly productive, but sometimes my best is doing the bare minimum. As a perfectionist and a completionist, I lose momentum quickly if I cannot achieve my vision for a task immediately. So I took Marc’s advice as permission to be realistic each day about what my best really is.” — Amity
- “I felt that the explanation of the 80/20 concept was exceptional. I have heard of this same concept and even used it in different applications. However, explaining it as an overall tool for life in general as easy of a concept as it may seem, had never crossed my mind until it was explained this way. I personally feel looking at my life from this point of view will really aid in improving myself.” — Russell
