Ok, tell the truth—there’s gotta be a project you started but didn’t finish. For me, I’ll admit, there are lots of those. Sometimes, I realized the need to quit, which may have been legit. But in other cases, it was due to my not having had the tenacity to go all in Rocky Balboa-style, and stay in the ring for the long haul.Our brains are wired for NOW and not as much for LATER. While this has been important for our overall survival, it has some negative side effects. That's because, as all of us know, so many of the awesome things we want in life take time. To use a phrase of my guest, it can take many "at-bats" to get the good stuff.   So, to take us on a ride for that good stuff, my guest, one of the world’s top executive coaches and a professor at Duke University’s school of business, Dorie Clark (https://dorieclark.com/about/), will explain how and why to go for the long game. Coincidentally, the title of the book we’ll discuss is her latest, The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World. I’m not alone in my love for Dorie’s work. Among the many accolades her book has drawn, Forbes Magazine said, “Dorie's book helps us … create the kind of interesting, meaningful lives we all seek."   So, listen in as Dorie and I get into it to help you get inspired to override your short-term brain and get up to bat for the long game.
