Summary

You've probably heard Chris mention that The Third Door novel by Alex Banayan has changed his life and redefined what he believes is possible. It's a novel about Alex's "wild quest" to interview the world's most successful people and understand how they got their start in order to help others get after their own dreams. Chris and Jare got to sit down with Alex Banayan and ask him questions to dive even deeper. This one's great for those who have dreams they are afraid to start, or are seeking clarity about what those dreams are to begin with.
