    The Layover Trap (Why Successful Leaders Stop Growing) | Ep.4

    Why do successful leaders stop building what they set out to build? Comfort gets you in, and the fear of losing it keeps you there. Imagine leaving Lagos with a plan to build your life in London. You stop in Dubai for a short layover, and eleven years later you're still there. Every reason for staying makes sense. That is the Layover Trap: when a major win turns a temporary stop into a permanent destination, and comfort makes the decision for you. In this episode of Builders Bible, we look at: - How comfort after success quietly replaces purpose, at work and at home - Why a promotion, a growing business, or a good season can make leaders stop asking what comes next - Resource guarding: why we protect what we have, even when it costs us what we set out to build - Loss aversion: why the fear of losing a comfortable life feels stronger than the promise of what's next - Three questions to ask yourself today to find out whether you are still choosing your life or just maintaining it Staying can be the right decision. This episode helps you make sure it is one. ABOUT BUILDERS BIBLE Builders Bible is a person-first leadership advisory and executive coaching practice for founders, executives, and successors.
