The Driven Crowd
As a personal injury trial lawyer over the last 18 years, I have met, helped, and worked with a lot of very driven people. From clients to other attorneys, vendors, healthcare providers, and people all across the business and personal spectrum, there are a lot of driven people out there. Even so, they each have unique passions, hobbies, and eccentricities. You can’t necessarily tell from their personalities, their careers, or their background who the driven people will be in any given room. However, one thing I have noticed is that no matter where their passions lie, driven people tend to surround themselves with other driven people. Each episode, we sit down and talk with a different driven individual and try to break down what drives them, how they use that passion to overcome setbacks and failures, as well as dive into their secrets to success. If you want to learn from other driven individuals, then tune in here and join, The Driven Crowd.
