It comes from taking that first imperfect step forward ;)

Also, I talk about talent and the fact that it is often overrated. For some people, it can even become an excuse to do nothing, but once we understand that everything can be learned and humans are built for progress, magic starts to unfold.

It is all about the journey, not the destination.

Enjoy!

Also,  I talk about the book the Dip (by Seth Godin) and how winners use strategic quitting as a tool to realign with the things that matter.

The podcast finishes with the story of Mozart and how quitting/saying "No" became fundamental for him to become the Mozart we know.

Both were not "ideal," but they were necessary to become the person I am today.

What you do with that starting point is up to you. The journey ahead is what matters, not where you started. So go out and make a difference.
