Talent and Mindfulness are definitely related. If you live a mindful life you are more likely to be in touch with your talents. Some people don’t discover their true talents until they are in their teens or twenties. Others don’t discover their talents until they are well into their careers and then feel it’s too late to switch and make money doing what they love.
Some people don’t discover their talent until retirement and still others never feel they have discovered their talent, even to the very end of their lives.
Today I’m joined by my friend, Don Hutcheson, who has built seven companies and worked with hundreds of people. He hosts a podcast called, ‘Discover Your Talent, Do What You Love’. As you’ll discover, he has tremendous knowledge and insight into ‘Talent and Mindfulness’.
