On Today's Episode:

Greatness isn’t reserved for the lucky or privileged few. Success and wealth isn’t a right that anyone has been denied by bad luck of the draw either. Possibility is within your control when you learn to use the pain and live the life you’ve been given better than anyone else and you learn to see opportunities. But you have to execute to make sh*t happen!

Eric Thomas has been motivating people for years and is bringing his energy and passion to Impact Theory to share the keys to success. Eric, also known as the hip-hop preacher, is a speaker, an entrepreneur, educator, and author. He’s taken the hard path in life, not by choice, and learned how to achieve greatness by relentlessly executing.

You can achieve greatness but you have to take action and be accountable to yourself first and foremost. Think about what it is that you want to be best at and give that your total focus. Tom often says, ‘action cures all’ and Eric is living proof that action is a must once and once you release all of your excuses, you can become unstoppable.

“If there’s another mountain to climb, climb it!” -Eric Thomas
