Watch now to learn more about Patrick, the reality about motivation, and how you can develop a mindset that will help you achieve success! Quotables “Fundamentally, mindset’s a lag indicator of your belief system. So if you believe you can or you believe you can’t, just like Henry Ford said, you are correct.” “The key here is to break ourselves from the belief that we need to be motivated and appreciate that your success is not based on your level of motivation – your success is based on your willingness and commitment to do the work every single day, whether you like it or not.” “When you are confronted with your truth, great clarity is brought upon the moment – and that’s the beauty of an epiphany.” Links Website: Patrick Precourt https://www.patrickprecourt.com Website: RCN Capital https://www.rcncapital.com/podcast Website: REI INK https://rei-ink.com/
