In this episode, Tyler and Cody explore the myth of overnight success, arguing that it is a fallacy that overlooks the hard work and dedication behind seemingly sudden achievements. They discuss public figures like Post Malone and Justin Bieber, emphasizing the years of effort and skill development that precede their breakthroughs. They highlight the importance of passion, perseverance, and the willingness to take risks in pursuing one's dreams.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The idea of overnight success is misleading; it often overlooks the years of hard work, dedication, and skill development that precede a public breakthrough.

• Successful individuals often start with a dream and take actionable steps towards it. The question "What if?" can lead to significant opportunities if one is willing to pursue them.

• Traits such as resilience, determination, and a desire to prove oneself can drive individuals to succeed, even in the face of adversity and criticism.

• Discovering what you love to do is crucial for long-term fulfillment and success. It’s important to reflect on personal strengths and interests to align them with career choices.

• Success is often the result of small, consistent efforts over time. Embracing a mindset of continuous improvement can lead to significant progress and achievement in any field.

BEST MOMENTS

"I personally believe overnight success is a complete fallacy. It doesn't exist. The amount of work that goes on behind closed doors is really what sets people apart."

"The work that must go into that to be able to learn to play, even playing an instrument while singing is a skill in itself."

"What separates the people then that are making the decision to take action compared to those that aren't? What do you think it is?"

"I think a lot of people, unfortunately, they might not know what that is."

"You could change your life in a week if you wanted to, but just take the risk because you never know."
