Most people believe progress gets easier when constraints disappear. More money. More time. More people. More resources.
That belief is comfortable and usually wrong.
In this episode, Brian Gubernick breaks down why constraints don't block progress… they shape better strategy. High performers don't shrink the goal to fit the limitation. They keep the ambition high and let the constraint force smarter thinking.
Using real-world examples from companies like Southwest Airlines and Airbnb, Brian shows how limitations create focus, eliminate lazy solutions, expose false assumptions, and drive true differentiation. This isn't about waiting for perfect conditions, it's about designing around imperfect ones.
If you're feeling boxed in right now, that pressure might be exactly what you need. Constraints create clarity. Precision beats comfort. And the right limitation could be the very reason you win.
