In this episode, I share my personal story of becoming successful at a young age and the consequences that came with it. I allowed everyone around me to drain me, including my family and so-called friends. I had no one in my life who practiced the balanced give-and-take of the Ben Franklin effect, where I was always helping others but never asking for help myself. Through my journey, I learned about the importance of the Ben Franklin effect, which states that when others help us, they become invested in our success and are more likely to offer assistance in the future. However, if we are not humble enough to ask for help, we will never receive it. My pride and belief that I didn't need anyone's help or advice led to my downfall and the loss of my humility. In this podcast, I share my insights and lessons learned in hopes of helping others avoid the same mistakes.
