What happens when your lifelong dream slips through your fingers—and you believe the door has permanently closed?

In this powerful episode of The Mark Divine Show, NASA astronaut Anil Menon shares the untold story behind his journey to space—from repeated rejection, self-doubt, and believing the odds were zero… to rebuilding belief, training his mind, and ultimately earning his place among the world’s most elite explorers.

This conversation goes far beyond spaceflight.

You’ll learn:

- How to rebuild confidence after failure

- Why mental training matters more than talent

- How belief reshapes behavior—and outcomes

- What elite teams (NASA, SpaceX, SEALs) do differently under pressure

- Why it’s never too late to reopen a door you thought was shut

Anil’s story is proof that resilience isn’t about grinding harder—it’s about aligning purpose, belief, and disciplined mental training.

If you’ve ever felt behind, doubted yourself, or questioned whether you missed your moment—this episode is for you.
