“Name a legend who didn’t have a legendary team or a legendary coach.”

This Hidden Belief May Be Sabotaging Your Abundance

Brendon Burchard shares a powerful truth most high performers miss: creating significant life changes is more dependent on an understanding of sociology than psychology.

While personal discipline and habits matter, the real breakthroughs happen when you surround yourself with people who see possibilities in you that you don’t yet see in yourself. You’re likely stuck not because something is wrong with you, but because you’re an A player performing on a B field.

The path forward isn’t about working harder or gaining more information. It’s about investing in the right rooms, whether that’s a mastermind, a volunteer group, or a team that elevates your thinking and challenges your timeline for what’s possible.
