Hidden Potential

Mark Carroll
About this episode

Today I talk about a book that I've been reading called "Hidden Potential" by Adam Grant, which discusses personal growth, success, and the myths that surround it.



Why are certain people more successful and make it in life?



Are they born smarter than everyone else?



I dive into the following and share my thoughts on:



- Characteristics of successful people

- The 3 Keys to Success and my thoughts about it

- My personal experience of breaking down barriers

- How this applies to fitness, the gym, and life
