People tend to make excuses by telling themselves stories about why others are more successful or have better circumstances, attributing it to factors like looks, talent, or luck. Such stories allow them to stay in their comfort zones and avoid making changes or putting in the work to achieve their desired life. The reality is that everyone has the potential to succeed, but many choose not to pursue it due to laziness, resistance to change, or fear of taking action.
What is greatness? How is a successful person different from someone who is great? Why doesn't the average person pursue greatness? What does it take to be considered great? How do you cultivate greatness in your life? In part 2 of the Recalibrate series, Andy Frisella gets more philosophical and unpacks his thoughts on a topic that is profoundly important to anyone who wants to live the best possible life.
