“Dream so big people think you are absolutely crazy.โ€

Achieve The Unthinkable

Have you ever looked up at the moon and wondered what it’s like to walk on its surface?

It’s fascinating to think of going there on vacation and seeing the world from a new perspective – literally.

The only reason why it hasnโ€™t happened yet is that people havenโ€™t found the monetary value in it.

Most people think of the moon as a big deserted rock without much purpose, not to mention how expensive and hard it is to get there. You’d sound like a crazy dreamer to say that that is going to change anytime soon.

Our guest today not only sees the moon in a different light, but he has found a way to get us there very soon.

With technology decreasing in price, and getting better all the time, Naveen Jain is planning on making this dream come true. Heโ€™s found ways to make space exploration profitable for private investors and is in charge of the only company allowed to go to the moon right now.

In fact he estimates that in the next 20 years private citizens will get to go to the moon for around ten grand.

Heโ€™s been making all of this happen by simply breaking the rules.

When someone tells Naveen that he has an impossible idea, he knows heโ€™s on the right track.

In fact heโ€™s found that the bigger he dreams, the easier it is to accomplish those dreams. His over the top goals pique the interest of the top minds from all around the world, and they all come together to support his cause.

I honestly canโ€™t wait for you to listen to this episode of The School of Greatness Podcast as we explore the possibilities anyone can achieve if they just dream big enough.

Learn about all of that and much more, on Episode 563.
