What if “follow your passion” is the reason your self-improvement and personal development efforts keep stalling out? In this episode, Kevin and Alan break down why passion without structure leads to poor decision-making, inconsistency, and short-lived progress. They explain the deeper principles that create long-term growth, the identity-level shifts most people skip, and the real system behind sustainable success.
If you’re serious about consistent habits, better decisions, and a life built on clarity rather than clichés, this conversation gives you the strategic perspective most people never access.
