It's a Good Life Episode 028: Cultivating an Unshakable Character
“Your Character Is Your Destiny” — Joe Niego
Webster’s dictionary defines character as, “The traits and features that form an individual.” Your character is, then, you who are. In this episode, Brian Buffini interviews Joe Niego, who’s not only America’s top listing agent, but also Brian’s best friend. Joe delves into the concept of character, outlining the three endangered character qualities—discipline, endurance and courage.
You’ll learn why character is created a choice at a time, the role planning and accountability play in the process, and the importance of breaking through quitting points. This episode will help you make wiser choices every day.
