I read a simple story in an email I got a couple of weeks ago and it stuck with me. I know I talk a lot about wealth and success on the podcast, and it's because I think they are powerful and impactful. I also believe every one of us is capable of creating both.

But there is one quality that I believe is way more important... Love.

That's what this short story is about, and I thought it was a powerful reminder.

So I am sharing it with you on 5 Minute Friday in Episode 528.
