  • Why Most Entrepreneurs Fail (And How to Be the Exception): Lessons from Brian Will
    Dec 24 2024

    In this conversation between Jim and Brian Will, motivational coach and rags-to-riches entrepreneur, they explore the entrepreneurship journey, emphasizing the importance of resilience, motivation, and understanding one's 'why.' Brian shares his unconventional path from adversity to success, discussing the challenges of self-sabotage and imposter syndrome, and the critical lessons learned from early business failures.

    3 Key Takeaways:

    • The Critical Nature of "Why": Brian emphasizes that a strong "why" is critical for overcoming setbacks and achieving success. Without a clear, deeply personal reason driving you, failure can cause many people to quit.

    • Self-Motivation Over External Motivation: Brian argues that relying on external motivation, like seminars or pep talks, often leads to failure. True success comes from within—your "why" must be so strong that it becomes your intrinsic motivation to move forward, no matter the obstacles.

    • Overcoming Imposter Syndrome: Everyone, no matter how successful, faces imposter syndrome. The key to overcoming it is to keep moving forward, despite doubts. Just like a running back in football who keeps their feet moving when tackled, success comes from relentless forward momentum.
