You know, iteration is perfection. Stagnation is death. I talk about that in Disruptor all the time. When you stagnate is when you die. It's when you're literally in a box, you're dead. That's because you stop moving. It's really about moving and moving and moving again.-." \u2013 Miki Agrawal\n\n\nTo stay connected and to learn more about Vishen and Mindvalley, click on the links below:\xa0\nWebsite: Mindvalley.com\nYouTube: @vishenlakhiani\nInstagram: @mindvalley\nInstagram: @vishen\nFacebook: @mindvalley\nSubscribe to 'Mindvalley Membership' to discover 65+ transformational Mindvalley programs \u2013 at a surprisingly low annual fee here \U0001f449 https://go.mindvalley.com/NOW\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
