Welcome to the 13th installment of our Ask Me Anything series, where your questions take center stage and our answers offer you guidance on the road to mastery.

The goal behind our monthly AMA series is to dive deep into the questions that challenge and inspire you on your path to becoming your best.

We’re stoked about all the excellent questions we received for this 13th AMA. Our co-host, O’Neil Cespedes, is back again to make sure we keep it real as we navigate the rich landscape of your questions.

In this episode, we dive deep into:

• Best practices for managing unproductive thought
• Why it’s important to square up with pain and suffering
• The connection between quality sleep and being your best
• How to push away recurring negative thoughts
• How to develop your “It Factor” (no, it’s not genetic!)
• How disordered thinking takes shape from microtraumas
• Why people-pleasing masks your fear of other people’s opinions, or FOPO*
• And so much more…

Enjoy! With fire,

MG

* The book, The First Rule of Mastery: Stop Worrying About What People Think of You, offers more detailed insight.
