How To Break Through Limitations - Bobby...

Ali Abdaal
About this episode

What’s involved in the equation for success? Some say its talent, innate intelligence, education, privilege, grit, or simply dumb luck. Regardless of how many of these things you think may or may not be on your side, my guest this week will show you how to level up your motivations and aspirations to get the success you want.

Bobby Seagull started his life from humble beginnings living on a council estate in East London before rising to fame as captain of Emmanuel College Cambridge on the BBC quiz show University Challenge. He’s now a school maths teacher, author and the go-to maths guy for the BBC on a mission to encourage people that they can achieve anything they set out to achieve.
