Episode 014 | The Relationship is Everything
15/01/2018 Duration: 46minThe relationship between instructor and student is paramount. As is the relationship between you motivation and your ultimate success. Businessman and friend Marc Dean joins us to talk about his experience getting his Private Pilot License. Things weren’t right where he started and Marc’s gut feeling was that he wasn’t in the right place. Are you in the right place? Listen as we talk about common issues like: Student/Instructor relationship, Flight School vs. Flying Club, Concentrating on the process and craft vs. “beating the numbers.” Sometimes a little mentorship goes a long way. Marc needed some and I’m glad we met. Congrats to Brian Juarez for winning the iPad Airway Manual Case!
