87. The Power of the Long-Term Play (vs. Getting Hung Up On Short-Term Timelines)

This is definitely not my most articulate, succinct podcast, but I think there's something here that's worth sharing – and it'll continue to evolve. The older I get, the more I see the value of shirking American culture's "quick results now"/focus on short-term time horizons and focusing on the long game. Let's talk about it, and I'd love to hear what you think! And as I mention at the end, if you'd like my travel checklist of things to calendar for each personal trip you take, you can get your copy here. Hope it's helpful!
