In this episode, Jordan and Gary discuss:
Conquering your fears by tackling them through trial and error.
Rugged individualism and being dependent only on yourself, not others.
The importance of character and its significance in building relationships.
Key Takeaways:
A relationship is built over time, you have to build trust and respect in order to lead.
People need to learn in the safest environment possible. Once they have learned the skill then you gradually apply and increase the amount of pressure they are under.
You must learn to lead yourself first before you can lead others.
"Things come down to that one moment, the moment you think to yourself this is it, I’m all in."— Gary Denham
