After 9/11 I had to shut down a business I built and loved. All activity came to 100% full stop. It was painful to move one. I tried a few things but just couldn’t get my MOJO working.

Time was fleeting. I was missing opportunities because of my inaction. I had to spend my savings, stopped working out, and frankly felt lost.

✅ Acknowledge the setback

✅ Leave the past in the past and don’t look back

✅ Create a new possibility

✅ Align with people who have a “get it done” mindset

✅ Create attainable goals that will build on future goals

??????? ?????? ????? ?? ???? ??????.

?Renewed Energy and Creativity

?Opportunities opened up

?New connections wanted to be a part of what I was doing

Listen in to my conversation I had with Hall-of-Famer speaker and best-selling author Dr. Willie Jolley on How To Turn A Setback Into A Comeback.
