In this short coaching monologue, Nick Kugelman warns entrepreneurs that they often undermine their own success by deliberately creating problems that give them an excuse to fail. He likens this behavior to "throwing a hand grenade" into their own company. Kugelman illustrates the pattern with a concrete example: an entrepreneur receives an invitation to speak at an event targeting ideal customers, hesitates, procrastinates on replying, and ultimately loses the opportunity because the organizer moves on to someone else. The speaker frames this as classic self‑sabotage, highlighting how fear and indecision can cost growth opportunities.
