The Unlimited Potential Show I Relatable Self Development: Recent Episodes
Dr. Ram and Chris Morrell
Do you have a nagging feeling that you are capable of doing, being, and achieving more? Are you unsure of how to unlock that potential? Every week, join Dr. Ram and Chris Morrell on our personal journeys to make self-development relatable and digestible. We help Achievers and Go-Getters reach their next level of success and fulfillment. Each episode contains powerful habits and strategies to help you discover your unlimited potential.
Let’s face it, we all have little quirks or do things we maybe shouldn’t do throughout the day. For example, have you ever found yourself gazing through the fridge without even being hungry? Perhaps you incessantly check your email just to see if there's anything new. Or maybe you have engaged in the act of gossiping behind someone's back. Moments like these (and countless others) in our daily lives all have something in common. Can you guess what it is? The answer may surprise you.
When you take a deeper look into psychology and learn more about why humans do what they do, you’ll discover the reason that we engage in these types of behaviors is because of our ego. Our ego is so much more than just something that gives you the “feeling” of confidence. It’s actually one of the most powerful forces that can make or break the course of our future.
Welcome back to another episode of the Unlimited Potential show! During episode 83, Dr. Ram and Chris have a deep-dive conversation all about this topic and define exactly what the ego is. We outline the unexpected ways ego can manifest in your life, and we also provide some simple ways to keep your ego at bay if it turns toxic.
This is one of the episodes you can put on the “power playlist” for the show. Even if this is the only episode you ever listen to, understanding these concepts and learning how to apply the life principles discussed in today’s episode can help unlock your next level of success and higher consciousness. We hope you enjoy and re-listen to it as much as we are.

A few weeks ago we did an episode on motivation and we covered some of the major points from a keynote speech Dr. Ram heard from Daniel Pink. He was so fascinated by some of the concepts that he talked about during the event, he had to dig deeper specifically into one of his books called “When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing.”
Today we are going to cover the main takeaways you need to know to unlock your Unlimited Potential! If you haven’t already read When here is some context about the book. It was published in 2018, and the book is made of data and research he gathered through 700 different scientific studies to get a better understanding of how big of a role timing plays in our life.
He looked at the different facets of society and culture in fields like economics, anthropology, social psychology, and others. And his goal was to give us a look as to why we make the decisions we do. But not only that. When we make these decisions, why we make them when we do rather.
He looked at fields like economics, anthropology, social psychology, and others with the goal of giving us a look at why we make the decisions we do. Not only that, when we do. Hit play to learn about the power of timing, how to optimize every second of your day, what you can do to make your business or workplace more efficient, and so much more.

At the end of the day, we all want to go to bed at night knowing we performed at our best…and every morning we should be motivated to perform at an even higher level than the day before. But what actually gives us this type of motivation? In this two-part series, we hope to answer that question and more.
If you haven’t listened to parts one and two of this conversation, go back and do so before jumping in! We cover a few powerful concepts and contexts we think all leaders should know. If you have already heard episodes 78, and 79, hit play to hear the conclusion to our deep dive conversation on the topic of all things “motivation!”
Today's episode is actually inspired by a keynote speech Dr. Ram heard recently at a conference. The speech was called “5 ways of increasing performance amongst yourself or those you work with” by entrepreneurs and author Daniel Pink.
The speech was so inspiring Dr. Ram took pages of notes during the presentation. Obviously, we knew he had to bring this level of gold to the podcast for you! At this point in this conversation, we have made a compelling case for leaders about what it takes on a practical and physiological level to motivate your team.
We have covered five simple research back methods that you can start implementing immediately. In this show, we want to drive home the concept and difference between “extrinsic and intrinsic motivation” and share how some of the biggest companies in the world like Google are using these tips and tricks.
Whether you are a leader to many, a parent to one, or just someone who wants to get better at encouraging people, we hope this series is exactly what you need to unlock your next level of potential. There is greatness inside of you, we are just here to help bring it out!

Welcome to the Unlimited Potential Show! Today we are going to cover one of the most underrated skills in 2022…
That skill is LISTENING!
If you're looking for ways to strengthen your relationship, perhaps you're trying to gain better influence over your team, or maybe you simply want to become a better conversationalist. Whatever your current goals are, this series will definitely help you get there!
It may sound funny to explain listening on a podcast, but we believe that this one episode has the ability to up-level your business, personal relationships, and even the way you speak to yourself and create habits.
Listening and learning how to hear what others are saying is a skill that you would assume would be natural for most humans. However, very rarely can someone say that “listening” was intentionally taught to them in a school setting, a family setting, or even a church setting…
The reason is simple. Most people (even our leaders) probably don’t know the importance of listening or even how to do it themselves. Don’t get us wrong…we aren’t pros at the listening and empathy game just yet, but we are actively developing the skill every day. You should too!
Hit play to hear our thoughts on listening, what human Psychology and research has to say about the Art of Listening, the monetary benefits of listening and so much more! This conversation was so powerful we had to split it into two parts. Be sure to listen to the next episode to hear the rest of our conversation!
After listening, let us know what you think! We would love to hear your thoughts. (See what we did there?) Follow the links below to connect with us and join the community!

Before you hit play! Did you hear the last couple of episodes? If so, go check those out first. Today’s show is part 3 of our conversation series. If you want the full picture and to get the most out of these powerful coaching tips, you’ll want to hear part one and two!
Think back to when you were young and ask yourself, who were the adults that had the most impact on your life? Hopefully, a few smiling faces come to mind when you reflect on the people that helped get you where you are today.
Maybe it was a coach, a teacher, a mentor, or a parent that came to mind. Regardless of how you knew them, they made an impact on you and that’s what matters the most. Most likely, because of them you now want to leave a positive impact on those around you. Isn’t that the way it should work?
When you meet a great leader or coach, it naturally makes you want to be one yourself. That same line of thinking and giving back is what makes today’s show so special. This week on The Unlimited Potential Show we are starting our new series on the great Coach John Wooden.
After his famous career as an American basketball coach, John Wooden was named coach of the 20th century by ESPN. No other team has won more than four in a row in Division I college men's or women's basketball. Crazy right?
In the final part of this enlightening conversation about Coach Wooden, we cover some of the most important principles we can all learn from. If you don’t want to up-level your leadership, I would recommend skipping this episode.
When you hear about Coach Wooden's Pyramid to success you’ll want to start leading by example and help carry out the Wooden legacy in your own day-to-day life. Listen to the end to hear how we both have found ways to form habits more effectively, how to start de-stressing more often, why enthusiasm is one key to success and more.

“Falling in love is easy. Staying in love—that’s the challenge. How can you keep your relationship fresh and growing amid the demands, conflicts, and just plain boredom of everyday life?”
This famous question was asked by the great Author Gary Chapman. If that name rings a bell, you probably have read the 5 Love Languages. If you haven’t read the book, there is no question that Chapman’s work and the love language theory have touched your life in some way.
This #1 New York Times international bestseller has sold over 20 million copies worldwide. That’s not including how the ideas in this book have translated into online courses, Church curriculums, marriage counseling certifications, and so much more. Today is part one of our two-part series on the love topic!

“Falling in love is easy. Staying in love—that’s the challenge. How can you keep your relationship fresh and growing amid the demands, conflicts, and just plain boredom of everyday life?”
This famous question was asked by the great Author Gary Chapman. If that name rings a bell, you probably have read the 5 Love Languages. If you haven’t read the book, there is no question that Chapman’s work and the love language theory have touched your life in some way.
This #1 New York Times international bestseller has sold over 20 million copies worldwide. That’s not including how the ideas in this book have translated into online courses, Church curriculums, marriage counseling certifications, and so much more. Today is part one of our two-part series on the love topic!
Dr. Ram and Chris here, and today we are excited to share. If you have listened to the show for a while, you know that we think that relationships are what life is all about. You may have heard us say that you could even predict your future success by who you have a relationship with today.
If you agree, this conversation is going to be a game-changer. During Gary Chapman's years as a marriage counselor, he realized he could boil down every common relationship problem or conflict down to 5 categories. Those categories are now what we know as the 5 love languages. The best part about Chapman's work is that this doesn’t apply to just marriages.
This wisdom can actually help you up-level every single relationship you have or ever will have! Hit play to learn why this matters, how to identify your own love languages, how to start understanding people better, what love looks like to different people, and more!

Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! Today is the last part of our six-part series on the trailblazing book “How To Win Friends And Influence People” by Dale Carnegie. This book has been mentioned as one of the most influential books by some of the highest performers around the world. That’s pretty amazing for a book written in 1936!
While 2022 may seem like a world away, this book is stuffed with insight and wisdom that has withstood the test of time. If you want to create deep connections with others and positively influence the future of our world, then don’t miss this series! Hit play to join the conversation and gain foundational principles that will serve you (and others) for years to come.
Can you believe it’s the last episode in this series? If you have joined us for all six parts, you now see why this book has been trending for almost 90 years. We could probably do at least 6 more episodes about the principles Carnegie lays out for us and we would still be missing some of the wisdom hidden within the pages of this book. That can feel overwhelming, or it can feel inspiring.
A book like this only comes around a few times in history, during this episode we share our plan on how we plan to not be overwhelmed by the amount of content in this book, but how we plan to let it inspire us to take action and make a life long commitment to mastering Dale’s advice every day. When something is this rich with information, we think if you apply even 3 of the main principles, you can get at least 80% of the results promised.
Don’t believe us? Let’s put it to the test, we are going to be taking action on 3 principles that stood out to us. Try it out in your own life and let us know how it goes! Follow the links below to connect with us and the Unlimited Potential Show community.

Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! Today is part five of our six-part series on the trailblazing book “How To Win Friends And Influence People” by Dale Carnegie. This book has been mentioned as one of the most influential books by some of the highest performers around the world. That’s pretty amazing for a book written in 1936!
While 2022 may seem like a world away, this book is stuffed with insight and wisdom that has withstood the test of time.

Hit play to join the conversation and gain foundational principles that will serve you (and others) for years to come.
If you have joined us for the past few episodes, you already know this book has been a wealth of knowledge and it feels like we’ve only just scratched the surface. By now, you probably also have noticed how this book has clearly shaped the entire industry of self-development/self-improvement and the impact it must have made on many leaders and titans of business. However, nothing tests a leader and what they are made of more than what Dale left for us on the final topic…
How to change people without offense or arousing resentment. Otherwise known as, delivering negative feedback or a particular incidence where behavior needs to be corrected.

In today’s episode, we talk about the three fundamental principles of handling people. Dale Carnegie summed it up best with this quote:

While we would never willingly upset a swarm of bees, our actions towards others tend to lean towards the negative. Listen in as we discuss the importance of not criticizing, condemning, or complaining when motivating others to work alongside you. This may seem like a no-brainer but it happens more often than you think.
Join us as we discuss the basic human psychology of self-preservation and how criticizing and condemning will only build walls between you and those you interact with.

“We all get 24 hours in a day…it’s up to us as to what we do with those 24 hours.” - Sam Huff
You may have heard that quote before, maybe in a different way or from another person, but the message remains the same. We have the same 24 hours that the most successful people in the world have, so what’s the difference between them and us? Before you say “money” or “connections”, think about this.
Where are you wasting time the most?
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed and drained by your schedule, or you’ve felt like the amount of work you are putting day in and day out is not creating the results you want, then hit play. Because today we uncover the best way to achieve more by doing less in every area of your life.
Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! In today’s episode, we talk all about the 80/20 principle and how it can save you time, effort, and frustration. This isn’t just some hack or genie in a bottle that promises results with no rewards. This principle is already at work in your life, you just may not have noticed it yet.
Did you know that most companies make 80% of their profit from 20% of their clients and that 80% of their clients only bring in 20% of the profit? It sounds crazy but it’s true. If companies spent more time on the 20% that was buying and less time on the 80% that wasn’t, then logically, it’s safe to say their profits would increase. However, this principle goes deeper than just business and products.
Join us as we talk about how you can find the 20% in your life and start making the impact you’ve always dreamed of. From work to passions and even relationships, you’ll get actionable steps to pinpoint the priorities in your life and start focusing on the stuff that matters. You’ll hear real-life examples of how the 80/20 principle has made a more fulfilling and intentional life for so many people. So, why not you too?
You ready? Let’s go! Hit play to start changing your life today. For more resources or to connect with us, check out the links below!

In a matter of minutes, Will Smith and Chris Rock made entertainment history in an incident that’s now known as “the slap heard round the world.” However, there are some important lessons we may have missed in between all the drama. Today, we take a dive into the movie that won Will Smith his first oscar, along with our thoughts on this viral moment.
Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! Whether you saw it happen live, caught it on social media the next day, or you couldn’t care less about Hollywood, it’s safe to say the moment was shocking. On today’s episode, we briefly talk about the incident at the Oscars, the responsibility actors have when it comes to their personal lives, and our thoughts and official review on the powerful movie that is King Richard.
SPOILER ALERT!: We talk about specific scenes from the movie and what it taught us about creating and planning for success! If you haven’t seen this movie, but it’s on your to-do list, you may want to skip over a few sections. Either way, we hope you enjoy this episode and watch King Richard during your next movie night.
Though Will acted impulsively that night, his character Richard Williams, father of tennis legends Venus and Serena Williams, was anything but impulsive. Join us as we talk about Richard's uncompromising conviction in the movie, the simple 4 step framework that supports this “whatever it takes” mentality, and the lessons we can learn from those who have walked the path of success.
In the movie, King Richard has a step-by-step plan written out before his daughters are even born. His laser focus and expectations for their future teach us the importance of clarifying your vision and creating actionable steps to reach your goals. Listen in as we talk about the power of persistence, conviction, and belief and how Richard used these concepts to instill lasting values, balance, and humility into each of his daughters. Leading them to become some of the most successful athletes in the world.
We were blown away by the subtle lessons we learned from the King Richard movie and hope this encourages you to tap into your Unlimited Potential and go after your dreams with everything you have.

Welcome back to another episode of The Unlimited Potential Show! This episode is our last in a three-part series on Phil Jackson’s “Eleven Rings the Soul To Success”. Phil Jackson is one of the most impactful coaches and players of all time. He has coached prolific teams like the Chicago Bulls and the Los Angeles Lakers to multiple NBA championships.
With nine championship rings for coaching and two as a player under his belt, it’s safe to say he’s figured out the winning strategies it takes to get your team to the top. There were many things that influenced Phil’s time as a coach but one of the biggest influences was the book “Tribal Leadership”.
Join us as we dive deeper into the “Eleven Rings” mentality by taking a look at a foundational piece of leadership used by Phil Jackson. It all comes down to culture, More than your strategies, more than your systems and processes, more than the structure of the business. Because without a strong culture those areas will never reach their full potential.
Listen in as we talk about the influence that culture has both inside and outside of work, the five stages of tribal leadership to be aware of, and the role as your tribe’s leader. Learn from some of the best out there like Pixar, Viome, and the legendary Chicago Bulls of ‘96 on how you can grow a culture that leads to inevitable success.

Do you remember the story about the tortoise and the hare? It’s that classic tale of a rabbit who was so confident in his abilities that he ended up snoozing and losing to the turtle who should have lost by a landslide.
Of course, being confident in your ability isn’t a bad thing, but when it leads to stopping you in your tracks, it’s time to change your perspective.
Join us this week as we dive into the concept of confident humility and how you can learn this vital skill for yourself. Just like the rabbit, we as people can have overconfidence in one area or another, this can lead to stagnation, tension in relationships, and even missing out on something big. Today we go over the practices and mindsets you can instill to make sure that you never stop growing and learning.
Listen in as we talk about the importance of finding what true confidence is and how the strength of humility can accelerate your growth and knowledge. You’ll hear how scientists stay at the top with cognitive flexibility, how to spot false confidence, why differing opinions might actually strengthen your own, and the importance of being humble in all that you do. If you want to be a highly effective person then learning confident humility is a great place to start.

This book is profound and chalked full of wisdom that we are dedicating an episode to each individual habit. Hit play to join our conversation into habit number 5, the habit of seeking to understand!
Think of the most exhausting conversation you’ve ever had. You may have felt like you were talking in circles and the person in front of you was not taking any of the advice you had to offer. Now take a moment, and think back again. Were you listening to what they were saying, or were you just waiting for them to be done talking so you could get your point across?
If you answered yes to that second part, then you aren’t alone! Join us as we talk about the most effective way for you to communicate with others. It all starts with empathetic listening, what that means is you listen to understand the other person, not to talk back to them. This is a key habit of being a highly effective person and it’s one that we think could change your life forever.
We go over the three principles of seeking to understand, and how you can use this skill to meet the needs of others and truly make a difference with those around you. The best leaders are the ones who can empathize with those they lead and show they truly care. Whether you’re talking about taking out the trash or dealing with a client’s complaints at work, you’ll get the best tips and practices to listen with intention and walk out feeling better than ever before.
This episode is packed with examples and wisdom on just how important it is to master this skill. So, sit back and listen in because what we have may be just what you need. To find the resources we mentioned in this episode, check out the links below!

“You don’t have to blow out the other person’s light to let your own shine.” - Bernard M. Baruch
If you’ve ever worked in an office, chances are you’ve experienced or seen some questionable practices. The business world (and many other industries for that matter) is known to be highly competitive and “dog-eat-dog”. However, when it comes to being a highly effective person, the only way to victory is for everyone to win.
Join us as we discuss the principles of what it takes to live with a win-win mentality and create a culture of cooperation instead of competition. We talk about the importance of teamwork and how that goes deeper than just rooting each other on from the sidelines. You’ll learn how you can develop trust, loyalty, and real connections with everyone in your life to upgrade your team and make it across the finish line. Learn key principles, like why vulnerability gives you strength, loving people according to how they receive it, knowing when to stop depositing and when you should withdraw, and even how you can avoid being taken advantage of!
This episode is full of practical tips to help change your mentality, take you out of your head, and start serving others and making the world a better place. To join our private Facebook group and get more exclusive content, check out the links below!

You may have had this week before. It’s super busy, with lots of emails, phone calls, texts, dinners, and things that keep you running around. Then at the end of the week, you realize all that work you did got you nowhere closer to your end goal.
So, how can you skip the distractions and get right to what matters?
Today we take a dive into personal management and how you can practically create a workweek that has you cutting through the noise and intentionally moving that needle forward. We talk about the 4 principles mentioned in the book, how to know what is a priority in your life, and the two practices to help manage your time more effectively.
Sometimes, like that workweek above, our lives get so inundated with information and things we need to do, we never stop to think about WHEN we need to do them. Our world is run by apps, notifications, reminders, and all sorts of things that make it seem like everything is urgent. But with the 4 quadrants tool, you’ll be able to separate the ‘urgent’ from the important and all the degrees in between. Listen in as we give practical tips on how you can effectively plan your week in advance, prevent emergencies and distractions, and even how you can hone in on your life’s vision.
We hope this episode encourages you to pinpoint your priorities and take the steps towards your dreams. For more resources, check out the links below!

For over the past 30 years, this book has remained in the top 10 selling books for business and leadership. This book is widely considered the best and most influential leadership and business book of the 20th century.
With high praise like that there’s no way, we couldn’t check this out for ourselves! After diving in, we knew this couldn’t be just one episode. This book is profound and chalked full of wisdom that we are dedicating an episode to each individual habit. Hit play to join our conversation into habit number 1, the habit of proactiveness!
“Sow a thought, and you reap an act;
Sow an act, and you reap a habit;
Sow a habit, and you reap a character;
Sow a character, and you reap a destiny.” - Samuel Smiles
Have you ever had a moment where things are not what you expected or planned, everything is building up, and then suddenly you just snap? You aren’t the only one, we’ve all experienced a time when emotions ran high and maybe we didn’t handle things as best as we could. But here’s where the habit of proactiveness comes in.
Before you say “But I am proactive!” It may not be what you think. Listen in as we talk about how the habit of proactiveness starts with your own self-management and the very thoughts you think. There’s a reason this habit is the first one to master because how you approach the world is crucial to how effective you are. We talk about the unique power of choice that all humans have as well as the understanding that the only thing we can really control in this world is ourselves.
Just like the quote above, it all starts with your internal dialogue and how you choose to approach the obstacles between you and your dreams. You’ll learn the three practices that are guaranteed to have you living more proactively and breaking free of a helpless mentality. As well as the other gifts and tools that can help you manage your emotions and take back control of how you respond to the world around you. The best way to instill change in your life is to start with yourself, once you’ve mastered this there isn’t anything that can keep you from your goals.

Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! Today is part two in a two-part series on “Failing Fast”. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to part one yet we encourage you to go listen to episode 43 and follow up here!
How do you fail your way to success? Well, the short answer is to just try. But before you get overwhelmed, failing doesn’t have to mean a life-altering decision. It may take some courage sure, but it’s the little failures that ensure our road to success. We talk about the sunk cost fallacy and why the work you’ve already put into a project shouldn’t be a factor when making decisions for your ideas. You’ll gain insight into how you can use this to help save you time, frustration, and even money.
Join us as we discuss the balance that you can maintain in your life while also failing fast, and how you can use the small failures to accelerate you towards your goal. You’ll get a look into the principles that brought success to some of the biggest names out there, as well as what we can learn from children about failing fast and having fun with it. We have practical tips on how you can apply this framework to your life, job, or any challenge that comes your way.
This episode will leave you feeling inspired and motivated to go out and fail as fast as possible. So gather your courage and take the leap because just on the other side is the potential you’ve been looking for.

Do you remember learning how to ride a bike? That momentous moment of taking off your training wheels, learning how to balance, and setting off. Of course, none of us got very far, there were lots of falls, scrapes, and bruises. But we didn’t stop, even if we crashed into a curb, we’d dust ourselves off and always get back on.
If the old saying is true “you never forget how to ride a bike.” How come we don’t take the same approach when it comes to life and reaching our goals?

Through journals kept from his entire life Matthew McConaughey tells stories of wisdom, hardship, courage, and the lessons he’s learned along the way. Join us for part two of this series as we take a dive into “Greenlights”. If you haven’t heard part one we encourage you to go back and listen and join us when you’re ready!
Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential Show! In today’s episode we talk about an important overarching theme within the book. That is the power of solitude, and why it’s important for each of us to take our time and really learn who we are. Through the stories of his past Matthew McConaughey has been able to relearn lessons from hardships or moments where he thought he had a redlight. But through a different perspective or “looking in the rearview mirror” he was able to see the good in what was seemingly bad.
Listen in as we talk about the concept of viewing life as a verb and understanding that it doesn’t end the moment you reach your goals. It’s what McConaughey calls living for your eulogy and its a concept that has been talked about in various methods here on The Unlimited Potential Show. You’ll learn how thinking outside of the box and living life how you were made to is key in not only telling stories that are worth hearing, but also how you can spread wisdom and knowledge of your own.

Imagine if your past was written in books. Or even better, imagine if your past thoughts were written in books. What would you learn? What patterns would you see? This is the exact approach Matthew McConaughey took when writing his newly celebrated book, “Greenlights”.
Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! Today we take a deep dive into Matthew McConaughey’s “Greenlights” and the power he has recently brought to the self-improvement industry. Through journals that he has been keeping throughout his whole life, successes, failures, lessons, wonder, and more. Matthew has pieced together a theme throughout his life on how and when to deal with challenges. We talk about what he labels as his “McConaissance” and how he began the journey of looking into his past.
Join us in this two-part series as we discuss the journey Matthew had to go through as highly popular rom-com heartthrob to unbranding himself and re-emerging as a deep and genuine actor. You’ll hear how he came up with a way to engineer your success by “catching all the greenlights” in life. We talk about how every red light has the potential to become a green light. Sometimes, what we thought were red lights are actually green lights, it just takes looking at it from the rearview mirror to see it.
So, hit play, sit back, and listen in as we talk about how you can change the trajectory of your life and start loving failures, celebrating successes, and living your life to the fullest.

You’ve heard the term IQ before, it’s a static number that doesn’t really change over time and is used as a basis of your intelligence. But IQ isn’t the only thing you need to succeed in life, in fact, we’d say that it’s not even the most important. When it comes to managing and succeeding in your life, emotional intelligence is THE skill to learn. The good news is? You can grow this skill for the rest of your life.
Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential Show! This week we start a new two-part series about the importance of emotional intelligence. Emotions are a part of our everyday lives, whether we acknowledge them or not. We are constantly dealing with emotional stimuli whether it’s from other people, work, or our environment. There is something that is pulling at our attention. So, what would happen if we were able to identify and manage all these emotions? In this episode, we discuss the difference between IQ and EQ and the power that emotional intelligence has to skyrocket you into success.
Join us as we talk about the four categories of emotional intelligence and how you can master each one to become a more effective communicator. You’ll learn practical tips and tricks on identifying your emotions, processing them, and making the best choice not just for you but for other people around you. We talk about moments where high EQ was fundamental in changing an environment, why you should test the limits of your emotions, and even how you can pass this vital skill onto your children.
IQ scores may boast problem-solving power, but when it comes down to your future and potential in everyday life, emotional intelligence takes the cake. So grab a fork and dig in, because this is just the beginning of unlocking your unlimited potential.

If you were to imagine your perfect future self, who would they be? Everyone wishes they could go back and give their past selves advice on how to avoid struggle. But what if you could talk to your future self now and avoid that altogether?

In today’s episode, we talk with coach, entrepreneur, and speaker Dr. Wasi Saleem.

Bear with us now, but imagine for a moment that you’re a competitive eater. Imagine that in your next competition you have to finish a huge steak surrounded by vegetables, buttered rolls, and potatoes. But the only thing that matters to win is finishing the steak. You probably wouldn’t go for the sides first, this could waste time and cost you your victory. Instead, you’d go for the giant steak because it's the thing that matters the most right?
So what are you focusing on? The meat or the sides?
This may sound like a strange analogy but maintaining focused on what really matters to win is a skill that is sadly becoming rarer and rarer. In today’s episode we take a look into the book “Deep Work” by Cal Newport where he explains his simple process to eliminating distractions and finding the deep focus you need to reach any goal.
If you’ve been listening to The Unlimited Potential Show you’ve heard us talk about accelerated growth and a big part of tapping into that acceleration is sifting through the distractions and keeping your eyes on the prize. You’ll learn practical ways to shed your shallow work, exercise your brain, and upgrade your concentration. Plus, how you can create a schedule free of distractions that allows your deep work to thrive, saving you time and energy.
It’s easy to get distracted by the little things but by practicing these simple steps you can create a deeper, more productive life and career.

A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn a reputation by trying to do hard things well. - Jeff Bezos
Above is just one of the brilliant quotes from Jeff Bezos. If you are thinking about “wait, where do I know that name from?” You may know him better as the man behind all of the brown boxes at your doorstep.
Jeff Bezos is the founder and former CEO of Amazon. As you may already know, Amazon has grown to one of the largest companies in the history of the world. The remarkable thing is they did all within the last quarter-century. Industries ranging from books, groceries, media, arts & crafts, apparel, plus many more have changed the way they do business all thanks to Amazon. Companies now have to compete with their faster shipping times, competitive prices, and easy buying process. (That’s just scratching the surface)
It’s safe to say the world of online purchasing is all playing by the same rules...Jeff’s rules.
We believe that learning from the people that have helped create the world we live into today is one of the best things you can do for self-development. That is why today on the Unlimited Potential Show we take a look into the life and mind of Jeff Bezos and what made him the richest man on the planet.

- What it’s like to work at Amazon

It's a part of life we've all seen. The rise and fall of businesses like GM, Circuit City, and Redbox. Companies that should have had no problem stepping into a new century and yet somehow fell flat. So what caused them to fail while others like Apple, Ford, and Netflix skyrocketed?

Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential show! In today's episode, we take a deep dive into Simon Sinek's "The Infinite Game." This book is packed with information about how you can change your mindset from short-term strategies to making a lasting impact not only in your life but the lives of those you lead as well. From taking care of your employees to changing the world, you'll learn the power an infinite mindset has when it comes to your legacy.
Listen in as we discuss the importance of focusing on what matters and how finding your why is pivotal in creating the life you want. You'll learn practical tips for leading with courage, creating a just cause people will fight for, and building a team that trusts you. We talk about the five keys to an infinite mindset and how these principles helped businesses like Costco, Apple, and Amazon grow into industry juggernauts. You’ll even get a new perspective on your competitors and how they actually help you stay in business longer!
So, put in your headphones and get ready to take notes because you do not want to miss this chance of growing your potential and leaving a lasting legacy in this world.

We all like to indulge from time to time, allow a piece of cake here, skip a gym day there and so on. However, sometimes these allowances become bad habits on a subconscious level, ones we don’t even realize we’re doing. It feels good at the moment, but it may take the course of your life way off track.
Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential Show! In today’s episode, we take a deep dive into the book Atomic Habits: Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results by James Clear. Join us as we discuss the impact even a small habit may have on your health and mental state. For example, those five cups of coffee may have more significant consequences down the road than you think, and breaking a habit is almost more challenging than creating a new one. We cover all this and more while working through our own atomic habits.
Listen in as we talk about the 4 step process of cue, craving, response, and reward to create any habit easily. We walk step by step through the habits we want to implement, as well as the micro habits that keep us from our Unlimited Potential. You’ll learn precisely what will work and what will set you up for failure, as well as reducing a new habit down to 2 minutes, and even the best three ways to break a habit. From spending hours on our phones to waking up early and exercising every morning, we all have small practices that can either improve or degrade our lives. Which way will you choose?
To hear more about atomic habits, hit that play button and grab a notebook because this episode is jam-packed with useful information!

One thing about Unlimited Potential is that you have to commit to being ok with change. You must be open to learning a new way of doing things and the best way to grow is to know where you start. Personality tests are a great tool to know exactly where you are in your journey.
They show you the box; all you have to do is break free.
Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show. In today's episode, we deep dive into The Big 5 personality test and how it can give you some amazing insight into how you think and work as a human being. We go over the main five categories of the test and their subcategories, and how they define where you are in a crowd of 100 people. We discuss attributes like agreeableness, conscientiousness, and even neuroticism. There are many outlier effects on people's personalities; stress, excitement, frustration, to name a few, are all things that change how you view yourself and the world around you. Knowing yourself can drastically help how you interact with others at work or home.
Listen in as we find out more about ourselves and how we use personality tests not to tell us who we are, but so we have a measurable place to start. You'll learn the balance of negative and positive traits and how you can use them to grow in your Unlimited Potential no matter what. Join us as we talk about our results, how we've improved since college, where we want to be, and how we plan to get there. There is no bad outcome to a personality test, only information that you can capitalize on and grow past.
We hope this episode gives you a look into how you can use these tools to enrich and upgrade your life!

We’ve all had moments at work where someone made a snappy comment, or there was some passive-aggressive communication happening. Are you the type to walk headfirst into that conflict or do you hesitate at the first sign of trouble?
Don’t get us wrong, dealing with conflict is never a fun conversation to have and it leaves most people with more stress than they care to handle. So we don’t blame you for wanting to walk the other way, but here’s some good news. Our guest today is an amazing conflict resolution coach for Asian American leaders, Jerry Fu. He began coaching Asian Americans in 2017 to help with conflicts at work, with their families, and even within themselves. Jerry talks with us today about how growing up in an Asian family there was lots of conflict and hardly any resolution. We discuss how different cultures and growing up in different families has a great impact on how we handle conflict resolution and how that can even affect our self-view.
Listen in as Jerry talks about the clients that he’s helped dig a little deeper, and how working through the struggles or miscommunications in their life has helped them create better relationships with their boss and their families. Jerry discusses being proactive in your relationships to foster growth and not discontent, as well as looking at it from a different angle, why you should always be honest with yourself, and how staying too deep in your mind can stop you from any growth. You’ll learn practical tips that you can apply while addressing conflict and upgrade all areas of your life.

Today’s episode hits home for us, with Father’s day coming up we wanted to do an episode specifically for all the dads out there. Over the past few years, we both learned firsthand that being a dad is one of the toughest challenges, and most of the time it’s hard to make sure we’re doing the right thing. However, to say raising kids is all bad would be wildly inaccurate.
The truth is, we will never truly understand exactly how important and impactful it is for us to parent our children. The choices our kids make, the careers they choose, what they dream about at night, the friends they make and everything in between is dictated by what we do and say as Dads.
You may read that and your chest starts to get tight and you think...what if I mess them up?
The pressure can start to set in quickly, right? We totally understand. That is why today we want to reframe or maybe rewire your thoughts around parenting and being a Father.
Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential Show, our guest today is Blake Brewer, CEO and founder of The Legacy Letter Challenge. He is a father on a mission to help 1 million dads be more successful with their kids by writing Legacy Letters. You’ll hear how The Legacy Letter challenge got started, and how the worst day of Blake’s life created a passion for helping dad’s connect and inspire their children.
Listen in as Blake talks about his own dad and the impact he made in Blake’s life by writing a letter filled with love, advice, and encouragement that would bring comfort in the most painful time of life. You will learn about the true importance of Fatherhood, the one thing your kid may need to hear from you and more. By the end you will know how you can write your own legacy letter, and leave a lasting impression on your kids that will have them feeling loved and understood even after you’re long gone.
Disclaimer: Everyone in the family is welcome in this episode! You don’t have to be a Dad to be impacted by Blakes story. The last thing we will say is this episode gets emotional at times as Blake shares the story of when his dad passed. If you have recently lost a loved one and this hits a little too close to home, we encourage you to dive into our past episodes and come back to this one when you are ready.

“Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision.” - Winston Churchill
In today’s episode of the Unlimited Potential Show we dive into the topic of courage and confidence, and how you can use these two virtues to create a mindset that will never stop chasing your dreams. Some of the world’s most courageous leaders have felt fear before, the difference is they’ve embraced the feeling of uncertainty and vulnerability and used their own personal ambitions for success to guide their paths towards their goals. We dig into the mindsets of powerful leaders like Tom Brady, Conor McGregor, and Brene Brown to see what exactly holds us back and how we can overcome it.
Listen in as we talk about the importance of vulnerability, how fear can’t stop you, the difference between a good success and a great success, and how going after your natural passions will accelerate your growth. We discuss the aspect of shame and how it can distract us from what we truly want, how to combat this shame and understanding that even if nothing is perfect it’s still progress.
This episode is full of encouragement to embrace your vulnerabilities and tips to grow your confidence naturally. When we start changing our mindsets about the hurdles we have in our lives, we start making life changing decisions and we believe these two things are the keys to unlocking your unlimited potential!

We discuss the importance of true deep sleep, how to be more aware of what your body is reacting to and the power our bodies have through healing itself. Shawn has insight into our bodies natural rhythms that often get upset due to work, stress, diet, and lack of sleep and how regulating these areas can give you major improvement in your physical and cognitive health. You’ll learn some tips on how you can give your body the exercize it needs, using active recovery, how to get the best sleep, and how fasting can change your body for the better.

Do you pay attention to your energy levels throughout the day? Sure you may need that cup of coffee in the morning but what about after lunch, or even just midway through your work day? Maybe it was your lunch, or you didn’t get much sleep, or perhaps your body has been running on fumes much much longer than you think.
Today we have a really awesome guest, and friend of the show Shawn Tolleson! Shawn was a professional Major League Baseball player whose active but stressful lifestyle lead to a breakdown of his body. This lead him to become a health advisor and found Tolleson Health Advisors a business that helps people “turn back the clock” in their bodies by process of working with their body, not against it. Shawn talks about his time in the MLB and how the fast pace, short sprinted workouts, and long periods of stiff rest caused a life that had no energy and was painful.
We discuss the importance of true deep sleep, how to be more aware of what your body is reacting to and the power our bodies have through healing itself. Shawn has insight into our bodies natural rhythms that often get upset due to work, stress, diet, and lack of sleep and how regulating these areas can give you major improvement in your physical and cognitive health. You’ll learn some tips on how you can give your body the exercize it needs, using active recovery, how to get the best sleep, and how fasting can change your body for the better.
Listen in as Shawn discusses the heart behind Tolleson Health Advisors and his mission to spread as much of his knowledge to as many people as possible so that they can live a life free of pain without breaking the bank. With unlimited potential comes great responsibility, Shawn exemplifies this take on responsibility and talks about the importance of your why and how your potential can be used to make a difference in other people’s lives.

When we look at top athletes, musicians, and geniuses we tend to think that they got where they are because of talent and maybe a little determination. But did you know that talent has nothing to do with how far you’ll go in life?
Today on The Unlimited Potential Show we dive into Grit: The Power Of Passion And Perseverance by Angela Duckworth. We talk about how you don’t need talent to achieve your goals in life and even how being talented in an area might actually harm you. Anybody has the power and ability to become who they are with one simple principle.
We discuss some of the top athletes from Michael Jordan to Michael Phelps and just what it took for them to become household names and even history makers in their industries. There is something across the board you can find within professional athletes, musicians, or scholars and that is how it all came from within themselves. They were able to dig deep and find the true grit of persevering despite all odds to take the top spot and become the best that they could possibly be.
The good news? You have that exact same ability within you.
So join us as we talk about what we believe are the two principles for success, how you can increase your own grit, deciding what you want to go for with unlimited potential and even some tips to increase your physical and mental self in everyday life. Your unlimited potential is right in front of you, if you will only be willing to face the hard stuff and push through.

The entertainment industry is a huge part of our lives, and when we think of the amazing movies, tv shows, and stories that have been created we all have to acknowledge the behemoth they came from. Hollywood is a giant in the entertainment industry and only continues to grow, the stories that come from the west are sometimes incomparable.
What if your life could be just like a Hollywood movie?
On today’s episode of The Unlimited Potential Show, we have a world-class marketer, storyteller and owner of The Hollywood Approach Kristina Paider.

Kristina has an open conversation about her struggle with panic attacks and how she overcame them by finding her why, acknowledging her flaws, and using her ‘can nots’ to her advantage.
This episode is full of amazing insight that will have you taking a look into your past to find strengths you may have forgotten about and also how accepting your flaws only allows you to grow faster instead of holding you back.

Imagine this, your team at work lets something falls through the cracks, it’s a big responsibility that failed because of miscommunication. When your higher-ups ask what happened will you tell them that a certain employee failed, that another group didn’t meet your deadline, or will you as the leader take the blame?
Today on the Unlimited Potential Show we take a deep dive into Jocko Willink and Leif Babin’s book “Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead And Win” and what it takes to become a truly great leader who grows and supports those below them. We talk about the importance of ownership and how it can tear down a victim mindset setting you up for true freedom and control over your life. As leaders, managers, and even employees taking responsibility for everything in your life can bring better more detailed communication that will upgrade your career, relationships, and goals!
We discuss some key characteristics of extreme ownership that both Jocko and Leif talk about within their book and how they apply to your everyday life. With astounding imagery and some intense stories from their time in the Navy SEALs you’ll understand exactly what they mean when they talk about the importance of shouldering the blame, choosing the right thing to do, detailing communication, and even going so far as to making sure your intentions are communicated as well.
Grab a pen and paper because this episode is full of some really important mindsets and practices that we believe will upgrade every area of your life! To find the book or join our private Facebook community with more inside knowledge check out the links below!

If you’ve listened to The Unlimited Potential Show you’ve heard us talk about the importance of mindset and how it can make or break where you want to go in life. Today’s episode is the second in a two-part series going in-depth into which mindset is holding you back and what can slingshot you into success. If you haven’t listened to the first part yet, stop this now and check out our previous episode!
In this second episode, we talk about how you can start incorporating the growth mindset into your life, and how it can affect our kids, athletics, business, and even leadership. Listen in as we talk about the conversations we can have without kids to instill a growth mindset and how kindly telling them the truth can actually create more motivation and realistic expectations for the work they have put in.
You’ll learn about a study of Olympic swimmers that found not one of them was considered the best swimmer at their high schools and how being naturally talented doesn’t necessarily dictate how far you go.

If you’ve listened to The Unlimited Potential Show you’ve heard us talk about the importance of mindset and how it can make or break where you want to go in life. Today we start a two-part series going in-depth into which mindset is holding you back and what can slingshot you into success.
Carol Dweck is a Stanford Psychologist who has pioneered the idea of the ‘Fixed vs Growth Mindset.’ If you’ve ever said to yourself, “That’s just the way I am” then you may be a victim of a fixed mindset. We discuss the difference between a fixed and growth mindset, how you can identify them within yourself, and even how it may have been ingrained in us since elementary school.
Paying attention to your everyday life, what you say, how you behave, and what you think of yourself is a big indicator of where you are in your mindsets and how you can better yourself with just a few simple practices. You’ll learn how to differentiate in your own life where your mindsets differ and how you can improve in every area even if you previously thought it impossible.
So listen in as we deep dive into Carol Dweck’s book and analyze it with open minds and ears. For more information about the “Mindset” book, or more information about others we talk about in this episode check the links below.

“Your level of success will rarely exceed your level of personal development because success is something you attract by the person you become.” - Jim Rohn
If you’ve been around business or you’re an entrepreneur you know that every quarter there’s a point where you have to take stock, see what is working, see what is not working, and come up with solutions to any issues you find. However, as humans we tend to lean away from the issues that might be causing trouble in our lives.
Have you taken stock of yourself lately?
Today’s episode is a special one, we have our first guest Shivam Khanna! Shivam is a managing partner of the GS Dallas group, a graduate of Southern Methodist University, former CEO of Need For Health Group, and in his free time he enjoys playing volleyball, teaching at his temple, and spending time with friends and family. You’ll learn about an amazing tool that Shivam created when he noticed a disconnect between his professional life and his personal life.
You’ll hear how Shivam realized that the tools he was using every day in the professional world to keep businesses in a constant state of growth could be applied to his personal life as well. While his life at work was growing and flourishing he found himself asking if he was truly where he wanted to be, and from there created an amazing Self-Analyzing template that covered every area of his life from goals to weaknesses, desires, fears, and even analyzing the reason why he reacts the way he does.
Join us as we learn more about the Self-Analyzing template, breaking through limiting mindsets, and even facing your fears head-on! You’ll learn how to use this tool to take stock of every area in your life and begin to find incredible growth and transformation in areas you may have never even thought about.

Hey, Dr. Ram and Chris here! Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! As you already know if you listen to our show, preparation is important, right? People spend months getting ready for their wedding, their first day on the job, people spend years in school preparing for their career of choice, the list goes on.
In our culture, it seems like preparation is only applied for big moments in one’s life. What if we approached everything with that level of preparation and intentionality? Mind, body, spirit, career, family life, all of it.
This concept is why in today’s episode we are talking about the warrior mindset and the monk mindset and the importance of balancing the two. This is a concept we read about in the book The Buddha and the Badass: The Secret Spiritual Art of Succeeding at Work.
Listen in to hear our thoughts on this approach to living, how mental preparation is often more important than physical preparation, putting yourself in the mental state and mindset for success is of the utmost importance, and so much more.
PS: Today we kick off the show with some of the hardest ‘would you rather questions we have ever answered. We would love to hear your answers too, DM us on Instagram or LinkedIn! Check out the links below.

Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! Let us ask you a question, do the phrases “I’m horrible with remembering names”, “I’m not a good cook.”, “I’m not a fast learner”, or “I am a bad reader”, sound familiar?
Our lives can be dictated by phrases like this. Negative thoughts and limiting beliefs are the number one thing holding you back from reaching your Ultimate Potential. What if you could increase your learning and maximize almost every part of your brain with only a few simple tricks?
Lucky for us, you can!
This week we talk about the potential to exponentially increase your learning ability and memorization power. We know, it sounds impossible but you’ll learn about Ji Kwik the author of “Limitless” a national bestseller that will have you retraining your brain to memorize and process things 10 times faster than before. We discuss Jim’s journey and how he went from the boy with the “broken brain” to a brain coach and best-selling author.
Today, we say put the pen and paper DOWN and engage the episode with all five senses. We’ll acknowledge two mindsets that keep everyone from learning faster and give real-time exercises so you can experience much faster memorization in just a few minutes. Learn about this life-changing method, and even hear some of our personal limiting beliefs that we need to work on.

Einstein, Newton, Tesla, these are names we all know, they are amazing thought leaders, innovators, and radical thinkers that brought ingenuity and wonder into the world. These radical thinkers are still around and in today’s episode, we talk about one of the biggest out there, Elon Musk.
We discuss the amazing advances technology has made within the last 20 years from giant computers in the ’80s to the ever-growing popularity and science of esports. These things show off the complexity of the human brain and the unlimited potential of what we as human beings are capable of. But every once in a while, there is someone that exceeds even the big expectations of growing as a human race.
Diving into the mind of Musk and any other radical thinker is something we believe deeply in here on the Unlimited Potential show, we talk about Musk’s professional history, how he has built and sold multiple million-dollar companies and continues to do so. We discuss his vision, how he builds the future through his mindset, and even how he keeps up his seemingly endless ambition.
Join us as we deconstruct Musk’s psychology and how it has gotten him to create life-changing inventions, as well as our own thoughts and takeaways from his methods and ideologies. Unlimited potential is available if we are willing to believe and let ourselves see things from a different perspective.

Have you ever wondered what makes entrepreneurs like Gary Vee run? He has tons of pursuits, is always changing, always learning and it’s not just copious amounts of caffeine that makes him successful.
In today’s episode, we discuss two different mindsets that might have you reflecting on how you react to other people. Think about when someone tells you that you’re wrong, do you tense up and get defensive, or does it strike your curiosity? You can’t have a right or wrong answer to this, but it may give you insight into just what kind of mindset you hold, the soldier or the scout.
We talk about the balance needed between these two mindsets and how you can practically work towards a more open mind that will have you growing, changing, and learning faster than you ever have before. Understanding where you are in your journey for unlimited potential comes with being honest with yourself, and those around you to create stronger, more valuable, and more communicative relationships.
Admitting you are wrong and changing your mind is not a sign of weakness, but rather, is the ultimate strength.

I want you to take a moment and think of a time that made you truly happy to be alive. Where you were, what you were doing, who you were with but also that feeling of overwhelming gratitude. As human beings, we want nothing more than to live a life of success and happiness.
What if you could practice that feeling every day?
In today’s episode, we talk about the power of gratitude and how it can dramatically change your life emotionally, mentally, and physically. Gratitude has been linked to better mental health, better relationships, self-awareness, and a sense of fulfillment, along with a long laundry list of other health benefits including lowering stress, improving emotional resilience, and even reducing pain. With that being said this is a concept that we incorporate in our daily lives and believe in so firmly that we have dedicated an entire episode to it.
You’ll want to listen to this episode multiple times because it is packed with information about how you can take the simple practice of gratitude and breakthrough what is holding you back from truly finding happiness. You’ll learn practical tips you can use daily to push back negativity and mindsets that would keep you from reaching the next level.
Take what you can now, and come back when you’re ready to go deeper because gratitude is the key to unlocking your true unlimited potential.

If you follow the self-development world you may have heard that Matthew McConaughey came out with a new book.

We as humans are complex and diverse beings. If you were to call a meeting with 100 of the most successful people you know and ask each of them to candidly share their journey to success, you would be there all night listening to 100 different stories.
However, when you push past the differences and look a little closer you will see there is one thing in common in every great success story. That common thread is known as mistakes.
If you have been in Corporate America or played competitive sports growing up you have probably have heard an eye-rolling amount of “learn from your mistakes” pep talks in the past...we get it.
That is why today we have an honest conversation about mistakes and how we can use them to reach our highest potential. Hear first hand what we learned from observing our heroes and how they handle their mistakes.
Here is a hint: It turns out there are no failures in life, only failures to learn from those mistakes.
Listen in to hear the exact 4-step framework we use to turn mistakes into learning opportunities, how to choose the hard things in life for long-term impact, the number one skill every leader should develop, and more!
P.S. don’t make this another podcast you listen to and forget. Every week we invite you to implement at least one takeaway you got from the show in your own life. DM us on Instagram and let us know your biggest mistake this week. We can celebrate together!

Have you ever started a passion project just to have your motivation fizzle out? If this has ever happened to you, then this episode is for you!
An analysis of the world’s most successful, passionate, and driven people reveals that starting with your why is the way to unlocking your deepest, most long-lasting inspiration and motivation.
In this episode, we also discuss the critical importance of sleep in your emotional and physical well-being. To quote Maria Popova, a writer who’s best known as the curator of Brain Pickings, “We tend to wear our ability to get by on little sleep as some sort of badge of honor that validates our work ethic.
But what it is is a profound failure of self-respect and of priorities.” In this episode, we give you easy to implement, practical tips to optimize your sleep habits and to take your focus, energy, and wellbeing to the next level.

Do you find it difficult to stay disciplined in your life? Often times, we define freedom as doing whatever we want, whenever we want.
If we are truly free, that means we should also have the freedom to say no whenever we want. That means saying no to that bag of Cheetos. That means saying no to that late-night binge on Netflix. That means saying no to sleeping in…
In this episode, you will learn about how being disciplined is the ultimate freedom. You will also learn that being great in your life starts with doing the tiny things to the best of your ability. Lastly, you will learn how taking, small, consistent actions will have a radical impact on your life!

Has fear of failure kept you from pursuing your biggest ambitions? Fear of failure often holds us back from achieving our next level of joy, fulfillment, and happiness.
In this episode, we analyze the world’s highest achievers, such as Elon Musk, and break down the psychology that allows them to pursue such ambitious goals.
We also provide a 4 step framework on how to address the fear of failure in your life, how to learn from and move past failures and how to set up a culture of failure to push your life to the next level.
