I'm the same way. When we have massive dreams, we tend to look for the fastest way to get there and run. The thing we usually don't do is ask the most important question: am I truly building something that can scale with or without me?

You develop discipline by creating better habits. Chris created habits that improved his mindset and maintained his health. Mindset is critical for overcoming fear and taking action. One of the most important mindset shifts that Chris made as part of KW was learning to succeed through others. When you have the right people, the fear of losing control transforms into relief.   Even with support, you can’t achieve everything you want to accomplish in your life and your business if you’re health isn’t close to 100%. You can’t let your health fall through the cracks when you are focusing on your business.
