It might seem like I harp on the same topics over and over and over again and there is a Reason for that.
The reason is, I do NOT see or come across enough tough people, of ALL ages.
I hear lots of complaining, excuses from parents, athletes, coaches, administrators....
I see and hear fear....
Fear of working others too hard, fear of backlash that others will complain if we work them too hard, fear of EXCELLENCE.
THAT is the issue.
We're afraid of being GREAT and afraid of hurting others' feelings, etc. It goes against everything you need to create success in your life or the life of others.
I've personally declined a lot of podcasts and interview requests recently and sometimes I notice I should have declined more of the interviews.
Same questions, same BS..... Just more podcasts where the podcast is trying to be like everyone else.
The podcast below was a solid one and with my video on building and achieving success and toughness it is an important one.
Dig in and enjoy the TRUTH Bombs.

Feel free to ask questions / comments below.
And remember, "Normal" people will call people like me crazy.
If you start pushing for excellence and greatness, they will call YOU crazy.
And that is fine.
Because normal anything (actions, attitude, mindset, friends, goals, etc) lead to normal results. Normal is the same as average and I don't want anything to do with average.
Neither should You!

Yes, people do fear those who are focused and dedicated in life and in training.
How dare they not be mediocre like everyone else?
Ha ha!
I refuse to be average!
Frank I just spoke to the students where I attended Undergrad and that was a shocking thing for them to hear,
I told them even when you meet resistance for wanting to be Great, do NOT stop or slow down for those who want you to be average.
FK that!
