A Journey to Mastery

As a veteran who has spent extensive time navigating the complexities of post-war life, I deeply resonate with Brandon's Path as portrayed in 'Programmed to Fail.' I can't help but wish this remarkable book had been available to me a decade ago. Brandon adeptly addresses a multitude of issues that resonate with athletes, entrepreneurs, and fellow veterans like me.

This book has been instrumental in helping me recognize the remarkable journey I've undertaken and, more importantly, the incredible path that still lies ahead. My heartfelt gratitude for this transformative work.

Came at the perfect time

Brandon’s "Program to Fail" is a powerful and relatable exploration of self-sabotage and personal growth. As I read through the book, I found myself deeply connected to many of the challenges and patterns described. Brandon’s insights into why we often set ourselves up for failure felt like a reflection of my own experiences.

What makes this book stand out is not just its identification of common pitfalls but its practical advice on overcoming them. Brandon offers actionable strategies for creating positive habits, breaking negative cycles, and building resilience. His approach is both thoughtful and accessible, making it easy to see how these principles can be applied to everyday life.

I’m excited to start implementing the strategies outlined in "Program to Fail" and see the impact on my own personal growth. Brandon’s book is more than a guide; it’s an invitation to transform the way we approach our goals and challenges.

The hidden concepts behind self sabotage

Brandon shares his personal journey in a really authentic, relatable way that is both engaging and really easy to listen to. I highly recommend utilizing the accompanying workbook known as "The PlayBook." This exercises are carefully laid out and build on each other week by week to gain access to self awareness and hidden self saboteurs. Being reconnected to my self awareness and trusting the process I was empowered to regain control of my thoughts and feelings and move myself from "stuck" to working on my next set of goals.

The deep assessment of the mind and how it affects our goals

Loved how he went into how our childhood affects us as adults and how we are sabotaging ourselves when it matters most. Must read

Meditate and do psychedelics

Some kid wrote a story about learning to meditate and doing psychedelics to kill his ego in order to remove self limiting beliefs. It's just a story with no how-to. During the entirety of the book he eludes to when he's going to tell you HOW in "part 2", until you get to the end of the book and realize part 2 is another book he hasn't written yet. I want my audible credit back.
