Jon Giganti, a seasoned sales professional, former division one collegiate athlete, and author of the USA Today bestseller 'With Intention.' John shares his journey of writing the book, rooted in his early experiences with motivational literature and his struggles with performance in sports and sales. He discusses the concept of living with intentionality, overcoming obstacles, and managing 'intention deficit disorder,' a term introduced by Dr. Russell Barkley.
