Carl launches today’s show with a reminder of those nerve shaking moments when we attempt to change lanes, only to find a car hiding in our blind spot.
We have personal blind spots as well – gaps between perception and reality. Left unchecked, those personal blind spots can cause serious crashes in our life, relationships, and business.
Carl provides keys to identifying your personal blind spots and action steps to compensate or adapt to them.
In today’s show Carl references the works of Claudia Shelton and Sara Canaday

In this final broadcast of 2013, Carl asks the question of how we view the upcoming new year – do we feel a sense of fear, apathy, or anticipation. He lays the foundation for the belief that we have choices in how we perceive changes in our life.
Fear becomes a matter of choice – one that we can control. Apathy produces nothing and is also a choice. Anticipation provides the greatest environment for growth and improvement.
