The Gap and The Gain

This is the fourth Note I’ve created on one of Ben Hardy’s books, and The Gap and The Gain delivers one of the most powerful distinctions I’ve ever encountered. Co-written with Dan Sullivan, it shows why so many ambitious people stay stuck in dissatisfaction: they measure themselves against an impossible ideal rather than against the progress they’ve actually made. Once you really get the difference between the GAP and the GAIN, you can start building more happiness, confidence, freedom, and momentum right now by measuring backward, appreciating how far you’ve come, and using even difficult experiences to grow stronger and wiser. Big Ideas we explore include The Gap and The Gain, Harmonious Passion, #1 Hour in Your Day, Three Wins, and how to Become Antifragile.
