Today, I want to share a powerful poem with you by Sadhguru, an Indian mystic and humanitarian. I listen to this poem at least once per month during my meditations, and at this time of year, I think everyone could benefit from reading or hearing it as well. The poem asks several questions throughout that will make you think and reflect on how you spend your time. At the end, I have a little challenge for you to think about as you head into a new year.

They say they’re just waiting for the perfect time or opportunity, but that never actually happens. I’ll share how this relates to why I started my podcast and where I record my episodes... and here’s a hint - it’s not in a glamorous recording studio that I dreamed up.
