In the buzz surrounding the latest Mission Impossible release, one unexpected interview moment with Tom Cruise stood out to me — not for the stunts he pulled, but for the mindset he shared around setting and achieving big goals. Instead of just the typical “work backwards from your vision” advice, Cruise offered a grounded, grace-filled approach; one that honors the learning curve and embraces the humility of starting at the crawl, no matter how far you’ve come. He shared the exact method he uses to go from crawling to sprinting (sometimes literally off a building). It’s simple, powerful, and removes the pressure to have it all figured out. We’ll break down the difference between your action list and your learning list — and how giving yourself permission to grow might actually be the key to finally making your own “mission” possible.
