It would be so easy to pass judgment on an individual who appears to be nothing more than a pile of trash, literally. Today we're continuing our conversation with Tim Eggebraaten. Judgement is difficult to avoid, and sometimes necessary, but it's also unhealthy to be cynical and negative all of the time. And finding the balance might take you your entire career. This is p
