Lewis Howes: Creating a Playbook for Life

At the age of just 24, Lewis Howes found his pro football career abruptly ended by injury. He collapsed into a depression, paralyzed by fear and overwhelmed by the prospect of rebooting literally his entire life (with no money, no degree, and nothing to fall back on). But unwilling to accept defeat, he broke the massive challenge of reinventing himself into a series of smaller, manageable goals that he took on way by one. It started with simply getting his butt off the couch, and ended with where he is today— one of the leading voices in the new generation of lifestyle entrepreneurs, bestselling author and host of the wildly popular School Of Greatness podcast. Join Lewis for an inspiring and motivating conversation about how to push yourself out of a funk, dream big, and use the power of goal setting to achieve things you once thought impossible. In our talk we discuss: * dealing with adversity using it propel you * giving yourself challenge and a deadline achieve your goals * Creating structure around your day to boost creativity ... and much much more.
