A competitor is launching a new project, a friend is scaling their business, everyone around you is racing somewhere... How do you know if it's time for you to speed up, or if you've simply gotten caught up in someone else's race?

Vladimir Voloshin, entrepreneur and co-founder of IRONSTAR and ROSA RUN, has taken on the most insane athletic challenges you can't even imagine. When his competitors pulled ahead, he'd silently ask, "What if they're wrong?" And he'd keep up his pace. In business, staying in someone else's race can be just as difficult.
How do you avoid expending all your energy at the start? Why isn't motivation alone enough? And what do you do when a plan that worked yesterday needs rewriting today?

We continue the second season of "Leaders Awaken." Vladimir Voloshin is our guest, with Yuri Dolzhenko and Arseniy Ashomko. They started with sports and business, and moved on to personal branding, family relationships, and plans for life until age 80. Check out the results.
