I took so many notes – Yes the choice of paths and being willing to stick to the choice – no half in and half out. Commitment, work and recovery, I depend on recovery. Yes morning process – I must have it. I agree the choice to start the day off each day with your morning spiritual connection will change your life. Thank you Justin for your talk and pulling back the curtain more on the auditioning process.
