Lacy talks with David Yebra, U.S. Army veteran and Director of Training and Leader Development at the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. What would it mean to become a better version of yourself? Director Yebra describes the extraordinary power of our own minds to both limit and guide ourselves into a future we envision. Why take the time to envision a future you? Well, “you cannot create what you cannot imagine.” Director Yebra shares ways he uses his mistakes, is vulnerable with his support team, tests his capabilities, and adapts to a situation to help him reach big goals. You can apply these approaches toward any goal… for your health, relationships, job performance or career.
