Summary
This episode is personal. I take you back to a defining moment in my career—when I thought I was on track to become a partner after years of dedication… only to be told it wasn’t enough. What followed were two conversations that changed everything: One that helped me understand the value of my time And another that forced me to make a decision A close friend told me something I’ll never forget: If we’re still having this conversation months from now… it’s a hobby. And my wife gave me the clarity I didn’t know I needed: Pick a lane. This episode is about: Knowing when you’re wasting time vs. building toward something real The difference between support and motivation Why unclear expectations can cost you years And how the right voices in your life can push you to act If you’re at a crossroads—career, business, or life—this one is for you. 🎯 Key takeaway: You can get money back. You can get opportunities again. You cannot get your time back.This episode is personal.
