YOUR Burn vs. Success: How to Stay Hungry When Winning Gets Easy

In this powerful episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down for a real, no-frills conversation that will hit YOU straight in the heart.Ben opens up about the common traits that set high performers apart—and why so many others fall short. He breaks down the critical role that discipline plays in achieving YOUR goals, and why true champions never lose sight of the "little things" that build big victories.Ben also shares a hard truth: many business owners fail because they lack intentional focus. Success isn’t just about doing more—it’s about locking in on what matters most, every single day.And perhaps most importantly, Ben warns about a hidden danger: being seduced by success. He explains how staying connected to YOUR "burn"—YOUR deeper purpose—keeps YOU grounded, hungry, and committed to growth, even when things are going well.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/lBglWbfaujUListen to the episode: https://www.theburnpodcast.comLearn about our upcoming events and programs: https://www.workwithbnc.comLet’s work TOGETHER: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comOrder my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stConnect with me everywhere else:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693https://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet’s work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693
