The Hidden Tax Holding You Back

Sahil Bloom
About this episode

There are certain taxes of life that we must happily pay:

  • Periods of loneliness are a tax on personal transformation. To achieve the growth we want, we need to accept that there will be periods when we've left our prior environment and have yet to find our new one.

  • Boredom of routine is a tax on long-term success. To earn the win in the light, we have to embrace the boring basics in the dark.
  • Imposter syndrome is a tax on growth. To unlock the growth we asked for, we need to accept that we will be pushing beyond our current competencies and feeling like an imposter in doing so.

But there is one tax of life that we must actively reject:


The Ignorance Tax.
