Episode 2963:

Steve Kamb highlights the vital difference between fleeting motivation and lasting inspiration, showing how true progress stems from the hard work and perseverance of everyday people.

Quotes to ponder:

"I AM inspired by normal people like Joe, who dropped 130 pounds in 10 months while working a desk job and traveling two weeks a month."

"Perfection is the enemy of progress."

"Real achievement is full of blood, sweat, tears, boogers, illnesses, and competing commitments."
