While I wasn\u2019t getting wet, I was surrounded by a downpour. It was one of the most amazing moments of my life.<\/p>\n<p>I was also listening to an <a href=\"http:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/blog\/category\/inner-circle\/\">Inner Circle<\/a> training at the time, and one thing jumped out at me. One sentence out of the 1 hour and 1 minute long training that made me stop, and think. That one sentence has had my brain twirling and me searching for more the rest of the day.<\/p>\n<p>You want to hear what it is?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The only thing you\u2019re missing is a decision; and your dreams lie on the other side of that decision.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Huh?

You\u2019re looking at it. This blog. This platform. This company. This team. This success. It all came from one little decision to take a look at a video. That video is right over there in the sidebar. If you\u2019re ready to make a different decision\u2026 take a look. It could change your life.
