A rare handful of leaders, artists, scientists, and entrepreneurs seem to have Teflon in their heads.

Most people will die without ever discovering what they were truly capable of. Not because they lacked the talent. Not because life dealt them a bad hand.

Nothing remarkable has ever been built inside those four walls. No business worth running, no body worth living in, no relationship worth waking up to.
