In this episode, I talk about the importance of using the F word to guide your decisions and how it can be a powerful tool to help you make better decisions. I've been doing this for over 10 years and it's almost like following your gut, but then it's kind of like an amplifier. So many people say, words that were never said, "I really wish I wouldn't have trusted my gut." Those words have never been said, but to take that level further, it's anytime you're presented with an opportunity, no matter what it is, it could be to go on vacation with a friend, a new business opportunity, an event that night, whatever it is... if it doesn't feel like an F decision, then you shouldn't do it.
