Most men are infatuated with leading others in some capacity. I get it, I believe the capacity and desire to lead is hardwired into our DNA. That said, too many men want to lead others without effectively leading themselves.

Today, I am joined by former Navy SEAL and New York Times Bestselling Author, Leif Babin, to talk about recognizing excuses you craft for yourself, why brutally honest assessments are crucial, how to build "Leadership Capital" with others, and how to best lead yourself before leading others.
