WAIT, Broke the Wagon! Here's How:
Episode 39
Tuesday, 25 November, 2025

This episode dives into the quiet truth most people never admit out loud: starting something is easy. Following through is where the battle begins. A lot of people open a business, step into a new career, or launch a big idea… and then freeze. They wait. They assume the world will come to them. They hope momentum will build on its own. It doesn’t.Hans breaks down why “waiting to see how it goes” is one of the most dangerous habits in business and in life, and how it slowly suffocates progress before it even begins. This conversation is about taking ownership, taking control, and refusing to let luck decide your future.You’ll hear real talk on showing up even when motivation is low, building habits that carry you forward, stacking small wins, and why action—consistent, imperfect action—is what separates the successful from the stalled. If you’ve ever felt stuck after starting something important, this episode will remind you that your next level doesn’t appear by watching… it appears by doing.This one is designed to light a fire, push you forward, and get you back into motion. You started for a reason. Now it’s time to make it happen.Support the show
