Todd Herman’s award-winning high-performance achievement system is used by athletes, entrepreneurs, and companies around the world. In a world obsessed with five and ten-year plans, it’s easy to get so caught up in the big picture that you forget to take the smaller steps you need to get there. Believe it or not, any goal you make should only be 90 days out. Todd and I met through a mastermind run by Taki Moore, and I’m excited to finally have him on the show!
