Bearded Wisdom with Les McDaniel

Does the person you're following know where they're going?

The problem with most people is that they're playing the world's most unrewarding game: Follow the Follower. We live in the crowd, yield to herd mentality and often think, act, and talk like everybody else. The problem with this kind of mentality is that there is a very high chance that the people you're following don't have the answers you need to succeed as a human being. It's even more depressing when the person that's supposed to be leading you is actually following you.

In today's episode, Les talks about the herd mentality and why it's the biggest problem most people struggle with today. Tune in to learn how you can develop the stomach to go against the crowd and increase your odds of succeeding in life.
