The following is a summary of Episode 72 of my podcast, The Engineering Career Coach (TECC) Podcast. I will summarize the main points in this post; however, you can also listen to the show through the player below, the website, or by subscribing on iTunes. I offer a career-changing tip at the end of each podcast session.

In this session of The Engineering Career Coach (TECC) Podcast, I interview Hal Elrod who absolutely changed my life earlier this year with his book The Miracle Morning The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8AM).

Hal Elrod is the best-selling author of The Miracle Morning which is highly regarded as one of most life-changing books ever written. Hal actually died at age 20, hit head on by a drunk driver, was dead for 6 minutes, woke up in a coma after 6 days and faced the news that he may never walk again. Not only did Hal walk, he went on to run a 52-mile ultra-marathon, become a hall of fame business achiever, international Keynote Speaker, success coach, hip-hop recording artist, and multiple time #1 bestselling author.

Listen to this session and learn how to improve your engineering career and life in just an hour a day. Here are some points Hal discussed about the miracle morning process:

  • Why the miracle morning process is different:
