#10: Part 1: Tom Brady, 6-time World Champion—Back Up Your Goals with Disciplined Action


Listen Later

Today’s guest is Tom Brady, the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.


And if you know anything about Tom Brady, you know he’s incredibly disciplined.


His nutrition, his fitness, his training, his prep, his mindset – the guy has an elite level of dedication to being his best.


And that hard work is a huge reason why he is the greatest of all time, the GOAT!


But here’s what a lot of people miss. And I want to make sure you don’t miss it. What we’re really seeing when we see Tom Brady’s hard work is someone who has said: I am willing to back up my goals with disciplined actions.


In the NFL and in business, everybody wants to win. But not everybody is willing to work hard in order to win. Tom is. His actions prove just how committed he is. He walks the walk, day in and day out, both off the field and on it.


It sets him apart as a leader. 


And it’s the big takeaway for you today: as a leader, do you back up your goals with disciplined action?
