Dreaming Big: How Being More Ambitious Leads to Better Outcomes
In this podcast episode, I discuss the importance of dreaming big and being ambitious. The episode was prompted by a participant in a “Planning Out Your Year” event I attended, who questioned the purpose of dreaming big, considering it unrealistic.
Today I emphasize the significance of setting ambitious goals and discuss my personal experiences with setting and achieving them. It touches on various challenges people face when dreaming big, including limiting beliefs, the fear of failure, and a lack of support and accountability.
