Why do we let challenges cloud our successes? Why do we overlook the tough work it takes (and lots of hard times) to reach a successful endpoint? And how can we overcome our feelings of failure and stuckness so we can move into action toward the next goal? 

Let’s answer these questions in today’s episode of Leadership Live. In a fascinating conversation with Joel Green, CEO and Founder of Pro Level Training we hear about Joel’s retirement from professional basketball to focus on building a business that really makes a difference. He’s the National Director of Nike’s Sports Camps and the author of the book, Filtering, The Way to Extract Strength from Struggle. Listen to his story and how you can learn to filter.
