Achieving monumental success can create a lull. A lull can sabotage you because it makes you rest on your oars. You are not advancing forward. You are going soft. But don’t worry about it. This is reversible. I have been there, too, and I have undergone a mental transformation to create drive and momentum again. In today’s solo episode, I offer a roadmap so you can use failure as fuel for success.
These are some of the topics I cover here:
- The lull that comes after success can sabotage you
- Meaning of mediocrity creep
- Influence of David Goggins’ work in my life
- How I created momentum for myself
- Advice for achieving sustained excellence
When nothing feels like success, you will maintain your high standards. And you will continue being a limitless MD. So if you notice you’re going soft, just focus on self-care, recommit to action, go back to your weekly reviews, and connect again with your why. Be vigilant about this, and you will achieve sustained excellence. Until next time.
“If you’re really crushing it, it’s hard to maintain that hard level, that high engine of ingenuity, engine of drive and forward momentum.” - Dr. Vikram Raya
