Everyone wants the big vision.
The money. The freedom. The impact. The team. The visibility.
But are you actually willing to become the person capable of building it?
Hamish and I are coming to you poolside from Miami because we've been noticing something with business owners lately that we need to talk about.
This isn't me telling you to hustle yourself into the fucking ground.
It's about being honest about what you want and what you're willing to do to get there.
In this episode:
Why a big vision requires a completely different level of action
What happens when you stop being willing to learn
Why outsourcing everything could be costing you far more than money
The problem with comparing your chapter two to someone else's chapter 29
You don't have to build a massive business.
But if that's what you genuinely want, you can't expect the dream without being willing to grow into it.
