Real world success rarely follows a straight line?     On today's show, we break down why progress doesn't move in a perfect upward trajectory and why plateaus are not a sign of failure, but a normal and necessary part of growth.     If we think of success as a staircase instead of a straight line, we can better understand how lasting results are built in layers. First, you create a strong foundat...
