Failure is loud. You remember it.
Almost is quiet. And it lingers.
In this episode, I speak directly to you about the subtle regret of “almost” — the job you almost left, the conversation you almost had, the version of yourself you almost became.
Almost feels safe in the moment. It protects your ego. It keeps your identity intact. But over time, it quietly erodes self-respect.
We explore:
Why “almost” feels more comfortable than committing
The hidden cost of staying 90% brave
How incomplete decisions dilute momentum
The difference between failure and hovering
Why the final 5% often changes everything
This isn’t about dramatic leaps or reckless moves.
Listen when you feel stuck at the edge of something.
The pain of failure fades.
