790 Be the Greatest You with Trent Shelton

Author: Lewis Howes April 29, 2019 Duration: 59:13
YOU WERE BORN ON PURPOSE. We often think of purpose as something we have to “find.” But what if purpose is something you already have? What if you are your purpose? It’s not something that is temporary or can be taken away. It’s your essence. Other people can tell you what you’re good at. But at the end of the day, it has to resonate with you. On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk about purpose with a former NFL player who reinvented himself after football: Trent Shelton. Trent Shelton is a former NFL wide receiver who is now considered one of the most impactful speakers of this generation. He reaches over 60 million people weekly through hard-hitting videos and unprecedented engagement. Though based in Fort Worth, Texas with his wife and two children, Trent connects with people all over the world through his speaking engagements. Trent says that he has a magnet inside of him that drew him to his calling of speaking. He says that we all need to find our magnet. He believes that to be the greatest you, you have to find peace. So get ready to find out what really matters so that you can continue to stay true to yourself on Episode 790. Some Questions I Ask: What do you regret about the man you used to be?
