In today’s episode, Kevin and Alan discuss the fine line between healthy self-belief, arrogance, and self-doubt. They examine why some people feel motivated by a clear path while others resent what it requires, how current skill level can distort your view of future potential, and why knowing what to do is different from doing it for years. This conversation will help you assess your confidence with more honesty, patience, and precision. _______________________ NLU is more than a podcast.
