Even high achievers fall into negative patterns without realizing it. Awareness is the first step—track behavioral patterns and question your logic. Rejection isn’t personal; it’s redirection. Build a "happy file" to reinforce your wins and rewire self-belief. Success is safe when you stay connected to your “why.” Positivity should be grounded in humility and a willingness to keep learning.

Vince opens up about his experience building a $100 million company, facing public scrutiny, bankruptcy, and ultimately a profound spiritual awakening that reshaped his understanding of success, leadership, and capitalism.
