Podcast:THE ED MYLETT SHOW Published On: Sat Oct 10 2026 Description: Most people quit right before it works. Every skill I’ve ever mastered started out ugly. Then it got a little awkward. And then things finally started to mesh. I’ve learned that the awkward stage is where most dreams quietly die. This weekend special pulls together teachings and a conversation I believe can help you get through that stage faster. I break down the stages every pursuit moves through and why so much progress stays invisible. I walk through the habits that turn a goal into a result, challenge you to look at your own scoreboard, and share what starting from scratch has taught me. I also admit the one thing I do out loud that probably looks a little crazy. Then I sit down with Jon Gordon, a bestselling author and leadership expert who earned his optimism the hard way and now works with elite coaches, teams and leaders. He shares the stories and ideas behind his work, and I press him on how he lived them when everything got hard. Here’s what you’ll gain from this episode: The Path of Mastery: The stages every skill goes through, and the spot where most people bail out. Hidden Progress: What is happening beneath the surface when it feels like nothing is working. Goals and Habits: Seven moves that connect what you want to what you do each day. A Better Response to Pressure: A simple picture of how to handle the heat when life turns it up. Five Forces That Pull You Off Course: Jon’s framework for what holds people back, plus the answer to each one. You’re making more progress than you think you are. Press play and stay in the fight a little longer than feels comfortable.
