Everyone dreams of escaping the 9 to 5 office routine. It's natural to want more freedom, autonomy, and creativity in your life. Embrace unconventional opportunities, take calculated risks, and never be afraid to dream big. Jason Duncan believes one key to getting autonomy is by defeating the "Hero Syndrome," which can often get in the way of progress.

Escaping the daily grind opens up new opportunities that allow you to define your own working structure and make the most of the limited time we have. Tune in to listen to Jason for a unique perspective and gain insight into how you can create an extraordinary quality of life.

Episode Highlights

01:09 - There's this thing I refer to as "Hero Syndrome," and the hero syndrome affects every entrepreneur. Nobody escapes it. And at the beginning, what the hero syndrome does, it teaches us that we are the hero and if it's going to survive, we must save it. So, the businesses on our shoulders, we fly from town to town, we save the crying babies, we save the damsels in distress, we put out the fires, we do everything. We're the hero, we wear the cape, we wear it proudly. And that is fine in the first stages of any startup, of any business. The problem is that's not sustainable, long term.
