Summary

Is the fear of the unknown holding you back from going after what you really want in life?

Success doesn’t come from staying comfortable—it comes from stepping into unfamiliar territory, embracing challenges, and doing the work you've never done before.

On today's show, I want to uncover why doing hard things is not only necessary—but actually transforms your brain and rewires you for long-term, unstoppable success.

So join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3398 as we go over how to identify your most important goals, why most people never start, and how you can become the person capable of achieving more than you ever thought possible.

Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

0:27.6	Welcome back, everybody. Let's dive into this Monday's Mindset and Motivation Monday show with the week on the Cabral concept. It is a topic that I love to be able to talk with,
0:32.7	not only over with myself, but my private clients every 12 weeks as we start a new 12 week year.
