Transitioning from sport to new purpose

What is your definition of success?

The same mental habits that drive stadium-shaking victories can also lead to a profound sense of emptiness long after the roar of the crowd has faded.

So it's important to ask yourself: What brings the most meaning to your life?
What makes you feel most alive?

And when life really hands it to you, what makes you get back up and keep going?

Today we're here with, Jim Murphy, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling book Inner Excellence, former pro-baseball player and outfielder for the Chicago Cubs, and Performance Coach to some of the world’s top athletes and leaders.

In this episode with Jim, you'll hear:

• Strategies pro athletes use to achieve peak focus and mental toughness in high-pressure scenarios
• How to thrive in uncertainty and rewire negative memories to prevent future setbacks
• How to train gratitude and awe like a muscle
• And much more...
