Chris and Ben discuss reaching the idea of personal potential.
They touch on the following:

    • This idea in psychology was proposed by American psychologist Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" in the journal Psychological Review.
    • [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow%... ]
  • Ben equates leveling up in life to that of moving through levels of a video game.
  • The importance of discipline and how it can impact your success and achieving your full potential.

3 WHAT NOT TO DOs when pursuing your fullest potential.

  1. Avoid the shortcuts and hacks
  2. Make Excuses. Take responsibility and move forward.
  3. Don't mismanage your time.
