Episode notes

At forty-three, you're not really into quantitative self to the same degree that a lot of other people can go to. Where do you have a kind of a, again, a rule surrounding that? Ou maybe you're like saying, ha, you know it. Data's going to help me make decisions, but at the end of the day, like, i have to have a a measured balance between the two.

From the vault this week, we have Jon Acuff – a New York Times bestselling author of multiple books. In this episode, we discussed Finish: Give Yourself the Gift of Done. John's delivered some other great stuff since this discussion, including a book called Soundtracks that I highly recommend you check out after listening to this conversation.

Jon helps some of the world’s biggest brands tell their story and has appeared on CNN, Fox News, Good Day LA, and other major media outlets.

We discussed a sampling of the topics in his book, Finish, which includes planning, prioritizing, and reaching the state of finished no matter what you’re working on.
