Let’s see how you, the listeners, like the performance and knowledge we can cram into these newer 30-minute episodes!
Top 3 Hot Points:

Final Words:
I don’t think we can beat anything outside of the iron cowboys quote of “He who has their why to live for can bear almost any how”. That, I think encompasses not only the pushing through the pain, the power of the mind, the mental preparation and just the power of giving that attention to mindset and that preparation. That component of things whether it’s pushing through a big business project, making a big decision, or pushing through pain at a race or in a practice. If you have identified why and “what am I doing this for”, you really can withstand so much more. It’s just the power of that mind motivation.
