How can some people be so persuasive while others can’t seem to convince anyone to do anything? On an average day, you probably have several opportunities to communicate your ideas and feelings honestly.

info_outlineI always recall my junior high school journalism teacher challenging us on grammar and content for what we selected to include in the yearbook. He said, “One day this book will be the reflection of your work and the documentation of your classmates dreams so make sure you use good, better, best.” His words stayed with me but, at the time I didn’t realize they were more than a grammar lesson from a funny old man.
Most people look back on their life and wonder what they could have accomplished if they’d only been more decisive and committed. You can avoid that kind of regret by choosing to become the best at the thing that brings you joy. Ask yourself, what do you want to master? How can you turn you good into your best?
Your greatest potential will involve one of more of your strengths. That is, the thing you’re good at. Most strengths can be applied to any endeavor with a focused approach. Mastery requires commitment. It’s the commitment to develop yourself, overcome obstacles, and to put in the necessary time. It’s not just about effort and skill. It’s about being intentional with time and focusing on successfully reaching the goal.
In this episode, I share real and practical tips to help you along the journey of living your good, better, best life.
