465: The Story I've Never Told

HAL ELROD
About this episode

Are you the type of person that is afraid to take chances in life due to self-doubt and fear of rejection or embarrassment? Self-doubt and fear of failure can be paralyzing at times, but I’ve found that breakthroughs happen when you take risks and put yourself out there.

On that note, today’s episode is a special one. I’m sharing the potential preface to the Updated & Expanded version of The Miracle Morning book coming out in September. It includes a story I’ve never told before and the risk I took that led to an incredible breakthrough.

You’ll also get a peek behind the curtain of the development of the Miracle Morning Movie, why I decided to go through with the movie during the hardest days of my battle with cancer, and I also share the key lesson I learned from this experience and how you can use it to reach your own breakthroughs.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • How mustering up the courage to meet one of my favorite authors turned into something beyond what I could have ever imagined!
  • The power of breaking through your fears and creating your own luck.
  • How Robert Kiyosaki, Mel Robbins, and Robin Sharma came to be in the Miracle Morning movie.
  • The #1 lesson I learned from today’s stories and how you can apply it to your life.
