Like when I used to coach people wanna one, I’d always, my first question to be like, okay, pull up, what you’re playing for the day was today and they’ll be like, well what do you mean?
Brandon:
I was just gonna like answer emails all day and and go post something on social unlike, and that’s why you’re paying me money to tell you what to do because you can’t figure out what to do on your own.
Brandon:
You need to be a disciple to a plan of action, discipline yourself to have a plan of action and be a disciple executing upon that plant every day.
