634. The Hidden Cost of Going Too Fast

When you operate at a high level, you see the finish line instantly—and it’s natural to want to sprint toward it. But what happens when you run so far ahead of the pack that you look back and realize you’re completely isolated? In this episode, we unpack the hidden trap of high-achievers: moving too fast. We talk about the crucial difference between being a visionary and causing team whiplash, why pacing your execution is just as important as the execution itself, and how executive self-awareness can save you from becoming a liability to your own mission. Slow down just enough to keep the room with you.Join my class this Fall called Get Your Fire Back at davidtrig.com/getyourfireback. Starts August 1st, 2026
