Success isn't something you stumble into—it's something you build.
In this episode of On the Shoulders of Giants, Jeff Wells challenges one of the biggest mistakes professionals make: starting with the how instead of the what.
Too many people chase the next job, promotion, or business opportunity without first defining what they truly want and why it matters. Jeff explains why lasting success begins with clarity of purpose, how emotional commitment fuels perseverance, and why your career is simply the vehicle—not the destination.
You'll discover why creating value is one of life's most dependable principles and how consistently investing in others ultimately creates opportunities for yourself.
If you're feeling stuck, questioning your next move, or looking to build a career and life by design rather than by default, this episode will give you a practical framework for thinking differently about success.
