Why Plan B Is Destroying Your Success | Ep 64
Manage episode 520349369 series 3585368
In this episode, I walk through the lessons I learned after meeting Chris Gardner, the real man behind The Pursuit of Happyness, and how his story reshaped the way I look at goals, discipline, and commitment. I explain how a dream only becomes real when it’s supported by a clear, daily plan, why most New Year’s resolutions collapse before they even begin, and how reverse-engineering a vision into micro steps creates unstoppable momentum. I also share how Chris’s resilience reminded me that eliminating exit ramps — mentally and practically — is what allows Plan A to truly thrive. By the end of the conversation, I want you to feel equipped with a realistic framework for turning ambition into action.
