In this episode, Eric and Elan talk about when you believe there is always a solution, you will make the effort to look for it. If you don’t believe it’s possible, you won’t try hard enough. If you have to overcome every reason in your head why you can’t do something, you’ll never make the progress you want. Choosing to believe that you can do something will help you look for solutions to problems and lessons from mistakes. It will give you the energy to work hard because you believe your efforts will be rewarded. Without this belief, nothing else matters.
