Episode 287 - People Are More Important Than Things

Having a successful business and being a prosperous entrepreneur was a priority for Randy, but his driving force and inspiration came from his parents. Seeing his friends coming up to his house to hang out with his father gave Randy a clear picture of what he was supposed to pursue in life: being a good husband, father, and friend was way more important than anything else.

Today, I have the pleasure to receive a dear friend and a great person, Randy Garn. Randy is an Entrepreneur, Investor, Advisor, and Coach. He is the author of the book "Prosper", recently re-edited and relaunched. Randy specializes in guiding leaders through a personal and professional transformation; he is a High-Performance Coach and Partner at High-Performance Institute with Brendon Burchard. 

In this episode, we had a fantastic conversation about the journey of becoming who we want to be, how our habits impact our lives, and the importance of valuing people over things. Randy shared some takeaways from his book and some nuggets of wisdom about the 6 high-performance habits. We also talked about gratitude, personal and professional relationships, and the relevance of defining our goals.
