In this episode…What does success mean to you? Would you define it by the amount of money you make, the family you build, or the business you grow?
For Andrew Bernstein, success means being fulfilled in whatever you do, whether work or family-related. Having spent years working alongside top NBA players, Andrew learned there are four pillars to success and that success comes at a cost — being obsessed with what you do, curious about your craft, relentless in your pursuit, and overcoming obstacles will cost you time, energy, and resources, but the reward is worth it. Andrew has experienced the benefits of challenging himself and accomplishing his goals while maintaining respect for the people around him. His advice is to build trust and nurture positive relationships with others. Never give anyone a reason to distrust or doubt you.
