About this listen

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. It’s about finishing what you already know needs finishing. Listen when you feel stuck at the edge of something. Listen when you keep saying “soon” or “maybe.” Listen when you’re ready to stop rehearsing life — and actually live it. The pain of failure fades. The regret of almost lingers.
