Manage episode 518668780 series 3662121
Talent may open the door, but only coachability keeps you in the room. Pride destroys potential, while humility multiplies it. In this episode, Papa O breaks down why the men who rise in life aren’t always the most gifted — they’re the ones who stay teachable.
