The Psychology of Becoming Successful | Alex Fedotoff | The Jared Goetz Show

Alex Fedotoff went from working in factories in Ukraine to building multiple seven- and eight-figure e-commerce businesses. Alex did not even tell his parents he had quit his factory job until he had already made more than $1 million. The most impactful change in Alex's life was not finance. It was changing the beliefs he had about money, success, and the person he was capable of becoming.What this episode is about:This is a conversation about becoming the version of yourself capable of creating the life you want.
