Why Do Some Succeed and Other Don't | Ep 59
In this episode, I break down why some people crush it while others stall—even when everything else is equal. From my own experience in lending, I show how success isn’t about luck or resources but about how fast you act and adapt. You’ll hear the mindset shift that separates top performers: move with 70% certainty, not perfection.
I also share a simple three-step framework to build adaptability—spot problems early, reframe challenges, and act fast. Whether you’re in business, sales, or sports, this episode will help you move quicker, pivot smarter, and create momentum when others hesitate.
