Episode notes
Depth Perception Distorts Goals
- Most people have a depth perception problem that makes goals feel farther than they are.
- That belief shapes behavior and keeps dreams distant even if they're attainable.
Act Like You're One Decision Away
- Live in anticipation that the next person, idea, or decision will change your life.
- Expect being "one decision" or "one mentor" away so your RAS starts finding opportunities.

- Your reticular activating system (RAS) filters reality toward what you deem important.
- If you don't expect opportunities, you'll literally fail to see them even when they appear.
