Episode Synopsis

In this Episode: In this episode of the "Achieve Results NOW!" podcast, hosts Mark Cardone and Theron Feidt discuss how to identify and overcome the weaknesses and limitations that are holding you back. They introduce the core concept using an analogy: successful people have their foot on the accelerator (motivation, taking action), but many also unknowingly have their other foot on the brake (limitations, missing skills, or a bad attitude). This podcast provides a tactical plan to identify and remove that brake. The hosts note that many people set the same goals year after year (like fitness) and fail, leading them to believe they are the roadblock and give up. The solution is to identify the specific skills or attitudes that are missing. They outline three steps to overcome these limitations: 1.   Seek Specific, Candid Feedback: This is the hardest step. Ask 3 people you trust for honest, behavioral feedback (e.g., "How is my approach with people?"). The most important part is to listen to the feedback without getting defensive or letting your ego get in the way. 2.   Look at the Data (Self-Check): Objectively review your results in key areas of life (finances, health, career). Identify your "frustration list"—the areas where you're stuck—and then determine the specific skills or habits you're lacking. 3.   Prioritize and Create an Action Plan: Take ownership and avoid a "victim" mentality. Review your list of weaknesses and pare it down to the top 2-3. Then, pick just one to focus on, and create a 30-60 day action plan to develop new habits and overcome it. They also note that sometimes the right action is to delegate a weakness that isn't the best use of your time. The episode concludes by emphasizing that taking focused action on a single weakness is the key to breaking through and achieving results.
