Should You ‘Burn the Boats’ Ahead of Your Next Goal?
Today’s episode topic comes from a reader email.
The reader was using the Marathon Roadmap to train for her first marathon, but was afraid to announce to the world what she was up to for fear of embarrasment if she fails.
Is this timid, quiet approach the right one as you set a big goal? Or should you go all in and “burn the boats”?
Today we discuss the pros and cons of going all in ahead of a new goal, and what that can mean if you’re successful or not.
