This is a conversation about the difference between getting ready and showing up. &amp;nbsp; Connect with James&amp;nbsp; IG: @James_silvas&amp;nbsp; Tik Tok: @James_Silvas&amp;nbsp; YT: youtube.com/jamessilvas Web: www.Bethatonepercent.com Web: www.JamesSilvas.com &amp;nbsp; Be That 1% Podcast http://bethatonepercent.com <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/40233175/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/item/40233175
