Today we have AJ Jacobs, a New York Times bestselling author, talk about his newest book Thanks A Thousand: A Gratitude Journey. Von Eaglin gives a short snippet into how your struggles can determine your success.

A.J. Jacobs is an author, journalist, lecturer and human guinea pig. He has written four New York Times bestsellers including his book, Thanks a Thousand, that he speaks with us about. AJ has an infectious spirit and truly tells us the secrets into why we should appreciate the little things in life, as a result we express gratitude daily.

Von Eaglin, a licensed professional counselor, answers the question: What are you willing to suffer for? When it comes to success, so many of us just focus on the end goal but don't realize the struggle and suffering that comes with the grind. For example, Bernadette talks to us about her early days at pizza patron and how she worked 700 days without a day off! Von and Bernadette discuss how important it is to embrace the struggles to reach your successes.
