Building Mindset Muscle with Elan Gelfand

32 minutes

Elan Gelfand is a 20-year-old podcast host, mindset enthusiast, and the driving force behind the "Abundant Thinking" podcast. Inspired by his mother's resilience through challenging times, Elan channels his passion for learning, personal development, and financial independence into creating environments where wisdom from all walks of life is shared. Despite his young age, he’s already amassed over 100 episodes focused on turning ordinary mindsets into extraordinary breakthroughs, tapping into deep conversations with high-achieving individuals to uncover the mindset frameworks behind success. With a relentless optimism and a commitment to consistency, Elan brings fresh perspectives on growth, pressure, and carving out one’s purpose.

Takeaways:

Purpose is Personal and Evolving: Elan’s story demonstrates that finding your “why” often comes from personal hardship and a desire to support others—particularly family. Staying connected to this purpose provides the resilience needed to weather challenges.

Consistency Breeds Progress: Both Elan and Mick stress that success isn’t about quick wins but steady action. Setting contracts with yourself and sticking to long-term goals helps turn vision into reality—even when immediate results aren’t visible.

Learning is a Superpower: Elan’s journey shows the importance of being curious, seeking wisdom from others, and constantly asking questions. Whether in leadership or personal growth, learning from experience and from mentors is key.
