The Dangerous Lie About Hard Work | Ep. 094

Is hustle without mastery just wasted motion? You show up. You grind. You hustle. But what if none of that is moving the needle because your effort isn’t effective? In this episode of King Moves, Ethan and Justin unpack a powerful insight from a world-class speaker who built a literal Ninja Warrior rig on stage to make a point: practice alone is ineffective if you aren't practicing the right moves. They challenge the myth that more reps automatically lead to better results, and reveal how minor technical tweaks—whether in athletics, business, or public speaking—can unlock explosive momentum. If you’ve been stuck in the loop of “doing the work” but seeing no progress, this episode will force you to reevaluate your approach. What you will learn in this episode How to spot the difference between effort and effective effort How to level up your results through small technical adjustments How to avoid the trap of practicing the wrong thing How to make your message unforgettable using metaphor and props How to surround yourself with people who’ve “paid the school fees” so you don’t have to Questions answered What’s the hidden danger of “just doing the work”? How do elite performers approach daily practice differently? What makes a speaking performance not just good—but unforgettable? How can props enhance a message rather than distract from it? 🎧 Listen now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Are You Blind to the Signals Life Is Sending You? | Ep. 088

What if all those “coincidences” aren’t coincidences at all? Ethan and Justin dive into one of the most unsettling—and empowering—questions you can ask yourself: Are you paying attention to the signs in your life, or are you dismissing them as random noise?

Justin brings a healthy skepticism, while Ethan shares tools to recognize these breadcrumbs and act with confidence. This isn’t fluffy mysticism; it’s about noticing patterns, trusting your gut, and making aligned decisions in business and life. What you will learn in this episode: How to recognize synchronicities and use them as decision-making clues How to avoid overanalyzing and still act decisively How your brain’s Reticular Activating System filters your reality How to know when it’s intuition versus coincidence How to explore “hidden patterns” without falling for false meaning Questions answered: Are coincidences random, or is there a deeper meaning? How can you train your brain to notice helpful patterns? What role does self-awareness play in spotting synchronicities? Should you act on these “signs” or simply observe them? How do science and spirituality explain these phenomena differently? 🎧 Listen now and discover why one small shift in awareness might change how you see your entire life.
