The one thing I ask of my clients is bring in an attitude of curiosity. We will have a magical session. If you
00:00:07
don't, it's probably best you off. I'll give you a little example. I had an
00:00:10
individual who's a high performer. We had a little half hour and had a conversation response with, "Yeah, hey,
00:00:17
listen. I don't want to waste my time and your parents' money." I got an email
00:00:20
from the mother. David, I listened in on that and I just want to thank you for being so blunt and honest with this
00:00:27
person. I felt so excited about finally someone is speaking some truth.
