RYAN HAWK | Uncommon Behaviors of Productive Achievers
We’re all focused right now on producing maximum results. And, while most men will likely bow out of their resolutions in the next 30 days, it still makes a ton of sense to consider what new habits and actions you can implement on your path to change your life. That’s why I wanted to have my good friend and fellow podcaster, Ryan Hawk back on the podcast. He’s got a new book coming out that I highly recommend: The Pursuit of Excellence: Uncommon Behaviors of the World’s Most Productive Achievers. Today, Ryan and I cover why we should focus on long-term results over short-term gains, privilege and nepotism and how to tip the odds in your favor, the difference between being liked and being respected, how to find meaning and joy in the climb, and how to achieve excellence in your life. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS: Most people are not willing to put in the consistent work to be successful What keeps people from deviating from the path? Creating your own education How to build relationships if you feel like you have nothing to add Following your passions vs. finding passion for what you’re doing People with a track record of success will find a way to be successful in most areas Letting go of people from your past who are on a different path There are plenty of opportunities for everyone Building momentum in the writing process Taking criticism and feedback from people whose motives are aligned with yours The importance of delivering the hard truth Want maximum health, wealth, relationships, and abundance in your life?

MIKE RITLAND | How to Unf*ck America
Look, anywhere you turn, you’re going to see the challenges we face as Americans. Some, just designed to stir up infighting and eyeballs on media outlets. Others, genuine threats to our way of life. It’s hard to know which is which but it’s imperative we start having some real discussions about the real issues. My guest today is Mike Ritland, former Navy SEAL, New York Times Bestselling Author, and author of his latest book, Unf*ck America: A Respectful Open-Minded Conversation.
