    Fairways to Fortune | Preparing for the Unexpected

    In today’s episode, I sit down with Virgil Herring to discuss adaptability, resilience, risk tolerance, and staying grounded when circumstances change without warning. We connect the uncertainty surrounding professional golf to lessons in business, where overconfidence and overextension can quickly turn success into instability. Virgil explains why having an exceptional skill is only valuable when we know when to use it, while I share how relying too heavily on my ability to make money contributed to my own financial losses. We also discuss the broader responsibility that comes with success, the people who depend on our decisions, and why strong processes help us prepare for the unexpected.
