Brant Menswar – The Science of Good Decisions

Brant Menswar is our guest. Brant�€™s an award-winning musician, sought-after speaker, and a critically acclaimed author and I think you�€™re going to love him. Let�€™s be clear�€� and consider yourself warned. Brant�€™s got some strong opinions�€� and he�€™s not afraid of unleashing them.

For example, Brant believes that unless you can identify your 4 to 5 non-negotiable core values�€� you can�€™t do ANYTHING on purpose.  He also believes that about 99% of us are winging it, and that�€™s why most people aren�€™t getting the results they want or living the life they were meant to live. 

He�€™s got some great stories and statistics to back this up�€� but more importantly�€� he�€™s got some powerful strategies to help us get clear and make some awesome stuff happen.  Plus, we�€™ll be talking about Brant�€™s new book called BLACK SHEEP.

MORE ON THE BRANT MENSWAR EPISODE:

So�€� we�€™ve all heard of Walt Disney.  He was wildly successful and he truly dreamed bigger, thought better and did more than most could imagine.

Now�€� even though most of the planet recognizes Walt�€™s name, most people don�€™t know that it was really Walt�€™s brother Roy�€� who helped to make a lot of that success possible.  

Walt was the visionary�€� and Roy was known for getting things DONE!  He was involved in making so many of Disney�€™s biggest wins happen.  In fact, Roy pulled off finalizing and opening Epcot Center after Walt had passed away.

Now, one of my all-time favorite quotes comes from Roy Disney.  Maybe you�€™ve heard it.   Roy Disney used to say�€� �€œWhen your values are clear, decisions are easy.�€Â 

Brilliant�€� right?  When your values are clear�€� decisions are easy.

Well�€� in today�€™s interview with Brant Menswar, we�€™re talking about ways to help you to get clear on YOUR values�€� and as a result�€� you�€™ll be able to make better decisions and feel really good about them too!  Brant�€™s got some great stories, some powerful strategies AND we�€™ll even mix in a little neuroscience to bring it all together.
