Summary

"We're unhappy when our expectations of how we think life is supposed to be going are unmet." Today, join Alex (@AlexHormozi) as he guests on Diary of a CEO to discuss the pressure of external expectations set by social media and society on how life is supposed to be. He emphasizes the importance of shifting expectations and doing what makes oneself happy and talks about his perspective on work-life balance and the skill of making offers. This is part 2 of the interview.

Welcome to The Game Podcast where we talk about how to get more customers, make more profit per customer, and keep them longer, and the many failures and lessons we have learned along the way to $100M in sales. We've got roll-up-your-sleeves kind of hustle with a little bit of cleverness and a lot of heart.
