Stop Going It Alone - Lone Wolf Will Take You Down

You think being a one-man army is a strength.

That if you just grind a bit harder, get a bit better, be a bit faster.

You’ll finally catch up. Finally get the respect, results, and rest you deserve.

But it’s bollocks.

That mindset is draining you. It’s slowing you down.

Instead of being a strength it is likely holding you back and creating pressure across your life.

This episode is for you if you’re secretly overwhelmed, burning out, and still telling yourself it’s fine.

It's not.

WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT

The Lone Wolf myth is seductive.

You wear every hat. You power through.

And everyone around you thinks you’ve got it handled.

But the truth?

Trying to do it all yourself is Low Value living.

This week, one of the men inside High Value Man shared how results had improved in the last 6 months.

He’s a brilliant project manager—but as the business owner, that role was burning him out.

Six months ago he finally recruited a senior project manager who could take over that role.

Sounds obvious that it would work but so many of us don't do it.

This is what Dan Sullivan calls the trap of “-er” thinking: "If I can just be better, faster, stronger" … all solo.

You think you’re saving time, money or ensuring quality — but you’re actually just draining your power.

The antidote?

Who, not how.

Build the team. Focus where you create the biggest results.

That’s High Value. That’s leadership.
