“How do you put an elephant in the refrigerator?” Children sometimes ask absurd questions, and having a conversation with them can be both amusing and exasperating. But their simplistic view of things can open up a whole new perspective for adults. Today's episode sparks from Sharran's conversation with his 5-year-old daughter. This seemingly innocent dialogue shows you a powerful way to sequence your actions to produce the desired outcome. So, tune in to this episode to discover how a simple father-daughter conversation turned into a lesson in achieving success. 

 “The ingredients don't make the pecan pie; the recipe does.”
