Episode Synopsis

Why Struggle Is Your Secret Weapon
Most people run from hard times. They avoid struggle like it’s poison. But what if I told you that’s exactly why they never win? This video from some years ago reminded me today of the importance of this message.
Here’s the truth nobody wants to hear: struggle is your secret weapon. When you start from zero, when everything feels impossible, that’s when you build the muscles you need to succeed.
Think about it. The person who gets everything handed to them? They crumble the moment things get tough. But you? You’ve been in the trenches. You know how to fight.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:


Why starting from zero gives you an unfair advantage


How struggle builds the exact skills you need to win


What successful people know about embracing challenges


The mindset shift that changes everything
