Oct 02, 2022•7 min•Season 4Ep. 199
Sandra started planning for retirement before it happened... sort of. She wanted to travel, so she got a van outfitted for it. But she knew she wasn't going to travel ALL the time, just like she wouldn't be staying in her "sticks & bricks" place ALL the time. She also knew that life couldn't be planned completely - her favourite quote (author unknown, so we can't attribute it to somone) - is: You can't plan your life...

Joe Templin knows that it's impossible to be perfect. And it's impossible to strive for excellence 100% of the time. But he also understands that it's the microdecisions that we make each day that really determine which direction we're going in life.
