#1233 - The Illusion Of Progress And How It’s Holding You Back
Following the trend can be exciting and may feel like progress. It's true that there have been people who got their break and succeeded from trend hopping, but most of the time, they are the exception. In today’s episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about the illusion of progress that holds back dream chasers. They highlight examples of the illusions of progress that people base their career or business decisions on. You have to look closer and be critical about measuring your progress. It might be a delusion, and your decision based on it may put you at risk.
