Contributing editor Brendon Burchard joins SUCCESS Insider for this special bonus episode. He shares his story of how the fundamental principles of Coach John Wooden’s Pyramid of Success helped him during one of the darkest times in his life. Burchard highlights the first building block of the Pyramid, Industriousness, how he applied it to his own life and how you can do the same.
Favorite quote from this episode:
“I chose industriousness to make it very clear that it involves more than merely showing up and going through the motions. Many people who tell you they worked all day weren’t really working very hard at all, certainly not to the full extent of their abilities. An appetite for hard work must be present for success. Without it you have nothing to build on.”
—Coach Wooden
