The order was simple: Burn the boats. He wanted his men to realize that they had no opportunity to retreat, so they had to give this fight everything they had. Failure was no longer an option and winning this battle just became that much more important. There is much debate about the legitimacy of this story, both in reference to the true intentions of Cort\u00e9s and whether the actual burning took place at all. However, regardless of the accuracy in this particular case, this phrase \u201cBurn your boats\u201d has become popular advice in the context of business and success. In today\u2019s episode, my friend and best-selling author, Tim Grahl, and I discuss why burning your boats may be the wrong strategy and one you want to avoid, and then we share what we believe will be a much better approach for your to take your success to the next level and beyond.   Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com\/283 You can also find a special version of the episode on the PremoCast app (iPhone only): http:\/\/blog.premocast.com\/episode-283   Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.
