    #164 - Your Environment Is Killing Your Potential (Here's How to Fix It)

    In this episode, we explore the profound impact that your environment and the people you surround yourself with have on your personal and professional growth. Referred to as 'killers,' these individuals are your role models who embody the skills, motivation, and mindset you aspire to have. We delve into how subconsciously or consciously, your environment and the people in it can either elevate you or cap your potential. The discussion covers how shifting from a limiting environment to one filled with high performers can radically transform your mindset, outlook on life, and ultimately your success. The speaker shares personal anecdotes, the importance of being reliable, and practical tips on how to meet and connect with these high achievers.
