#31 Run Your Own Race Apr 02, 2023

Show notes

It's so easy to fall into the comparison trap. Don't waste your time and energy comparing your place on your journey to where others are and feeling bad about it. Likewise, don't be judgmental of those a few steps behind you. Also understand...they might not even be in the same race!

#28 Spring Forward...and Not Just on the Clock Mar 13, 2023

Show notes

Daylight Saving Time and the whole idea of flipping the clock back and forth seems so archaic. Why do we still do it???
Well, this episode isn't really about that! It's about asking, "What else are we still doing that just doesn't make sense anymore?"
Using the DST debate as a backdrop, Dave asks you to ponder what would happen if we put all of our practices and routines on the table and really examined them to see if they are worth continuing. If you were starting from scratch...right now...would you still do it this way? Let us know what you think using the #DaveBurgessShow hashtag on social media!!!
