The idea of "following your passion" often misleads entrepreneurs into thinking they should only do what they love. In today’s episode, Alex Hormozi breaks down this myth and explains how passion is about finding something meaningful enough to endure the hardships that come with it. From grinding through sleepless nights to tackling a plateaued business, Alex emphasizes that all life paths come with challenges. Success and failure are on the same road. The difference is the willingness to keep going, even when it hurts. Find something worth suffering for and embrace the pain because it’s the price of progress.
