Episode 56: How to Blast the Mediocrity Mindset with Sebastian Terry (founder, 100 Things) “Being realistic is the most common path to mediocrity.” ― Will Smith In his mid-20s, Seb was travelling overseas when he received a call that changed his life forever. One of his best friends had passed away at the age of 24. That tragic moment made Seb ask himself a simple question, “Am I happy?” The answer was a resounding “No.” Immediately after, Seb wrote out a list of 100 things he wanted to do, which he hoped would transform his life – and it’s done exactly that. Join the Win the Day group on Facebook: 👉 https://fb.com/groups/WinTheDayJW Now, more than a decade later, Seb has been diligently hunting the goals on his list and, through his 100 Things community, is empowering others to do the same. He’s married a stranger in Las Vegas (Item #2), delivered a baby (#23), and even walked across a country (#36). His 100 Things keynote has been delivered on all seven continents to 250,000 people, and he’s raised $500K+ dollars for various charities. Seb is also author of ‘100 Things: What's on Your List?’, a TEDx speaker, and featured in ESPN documentary ‘100 Things to Do Before You Die’. In this episode, we’re going to go through some of Seb’s craziest experiences, including being shot in the chest in Colombia and booking a one-way flight from Australia to Oklahoma to visit a stranger on death row. Seb will also share: His moment of reflection after tragedy Why people wait so long to seek what makes them truly happy How to create YOUR list of 100 Things, and What you can do to blast the mediocrity mindset once and for all.  Let’s WIN THE DAY with Sebastian Terry! _ 🎞️ YouTube version: https://youtu.be/BGeb6hM_-dg 📖 Blog version: https://jameswhitt.com/how-to-blast-the-mediocrity-mindset-with-sebastian-terry 🎧 Episode webpage: https://jameswhitt.com/podcast _ Show links: 📚 ‘100 Things: What's on Your List?’ by Sebastian Terry: https://amzn.to/3f4Sbq0 ⚡ 100 Things website: https://100things.com 📝 100 Things Facebook: https://fb.com/whatsonyourlist 📷 Sebastian Terry Instagram: https://instagram.com/Seb100things/ 🌎 100 Things - What’s On Your List?

Episode 47: The Heart of Humanity with NFL Legend Nick Lowery “Certain things catch your eye, but pursue only those that capture your heart.” – Native American proverb Nick Lowery is a philanthropist and Hall of Fame athlete, but his entry into the NFL was anything but smooth. Nick was released or rejected 11 times by eight NFL teams before finally given a chance by the Chiefs who, as history proves, made a hell of a return on their investment. Retiring after 18 seasons in the NFL, Nick is widely regarded as the most valuable kicker of all time, achieving records for most field goals in NFL history, most accurate field-goal kicker in NFL history, and all-time leading point scorer for the Chiefs. But Nick is far from the athlete stereotype you might imagine. He attended Harvard University where he graduated with a Masters degree from the Kennedy School of Government. Among his extraordinary list of accomplishments, Nick has: served three US Presidents as an advisor on youth and drug policy in the White House; received the most prestigious humanitarian award an NFL player can receive; and worked tirelessly to equip the next generation with everything they need to thrive. Among his philanthropic endeavors, Nick is founder of Champions for the Homeless, the Nick Lowery Youth Foundation, and has run leadership programs for Native American youth for 20+ years. In recognition of his efforts, Nick has been featured in The New York Times, Sports Illustrated, and on David Letterman, and in two feature films. We cover a LOT of ground in this episode. Nick will share: • His secret process to becoming the most accurate kicker in NFL history; • How we can help underserved populations, including Native American communities and the homeless; • The exciting research on how CBD can help restore brain function; • How to dust yourself off from failure; and • A whole lot more!
