You have two options: Face your fears and pursue your dreams or sit back and surrender.

We all have those two voices in our head -- one that is motivating us and pushing us to be successful and one that is holding us back in fear. Every morning, we make the decision about which to listen to.

In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Patrick Bet-David acts out these opposing voices and encourages you to listen to the one that wants you to succeed and will push you to pursue your passions.

Having a purpose and a positive mindset will not only drive you in the right direction but also increase the value of your time as well. Click play to learn more.
