EPISODE 165
Separating the Wanna-Bes
from the Gonna-Bes:
Motivation, Grit, and Discipline
Your Recipe for Success looks something like equal parts of three things. Motivation, the spark and desire. Discipline, your habits and structure. And Grit, your capacity to overcome challenges, adjust, and persevere. Mike shares some of the research that’s been done on these topics and ways you can integrate them to get your closer to where ever you want to be.
