Rob shares a personal story about his hiking experience in Scotland. He describes how walking in the mountains is like a metaphor for life and the journey of success, and reflects on the importance of having a vision, taking the next step, and not looking back.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Being open to change and planning for new experiences can lead to personal growth and discovery. Just like in walking or in life, having a clear idea of where you want to go and a plan to get there can help guide your journey. Looking back can hold you back from progress and hinder your journey towards success. Sometimes, it's necessary to pause, reflect, and recharge before continuing on. Taking time to rest can help maintain motivation and prevent burnout. BEST MOMENTS "And the point I want to make here is that walking is like life. It's like the journey of success, or the hero's journey, as I seem to talk about on every podcast."  "You don't know how good things can get. You really do not know how good things can be if you have the faith to step out into your own journey."  "Just keep looking the next step in front of you and taking the next step. And you climb to what you think is the next summit, and then there's another. You don't know what's beyond the next turn."  "But I kept trying and kept looking. And then eventually I saw a path where somebody had trodden before. Like a great poem, The Bridge Builder. Thank you for those who went before and trod the path."
