Highly capable people often sabotage themselves right before a major breakthrough due to subconscious programming from childhood. The speaker calls this pattern a "glass ceiling bounce": you reach a level, hit an invisible ceiling, then fall back repeatedly. Breaking through requires mentors who can help reprogram your limiting beliefs.
The reason why smart, super intelligent people self sabotage themselves, even though they are like, let's call it three feet from gold, is because they've got internal programming that doesn't work for them. They're programming that might have come from childhood, programming that might have come from, you know, the environment they grew up in. And that really impacts them to getting the results that they truly want. And I've watched this with people. I've watched people take businesses. I call it the glass ceiling bounce. Where they get to a certain level, they hit the ceiling, they bounce hit the ceiling, they bounce like, Colin, why do I keep on doing that? I'm like, you got programming on your subconscious drive that's not serving you. And that programming, until you fix it, will keep on doing the same thing to you. And my goal for you when you watch this video is to start to think, what is my glass ceiling bounce? And how do I break that glass ceiling and break through? And that's finding yourself great mentors that can help you on that journey.
