Common sense has vanished among those entrusted to lead the country. As politics invades every area of life, it’s a struggle between retaining the country’s founding principles or abandoning them in favor of socialist government control.
As Richard wrote in Navigating Life’s Journey: Common Sense in Uncommon Times, uncertainty results in anxiety and grief. It is exponentially worse for those inexperienced in life’s challenges.
We have two choices to respond to difficulty.
- Hunker down, and wait for it to end, which appeals to the risk-averse crowd.
- Utilize the time to grow, learn, prepare, and seize opportunities others avoid to leapfrog the first group in the pursuit of life’s dreams.
In the interview, Richard and John talk about how to seize opportunities and keep pursuing life’s dreams.
