The best professionals don’t just show up—they show up every day and do the work the right way. In this episode, I talk about what makes some people stay at the top, even in a tough field like the NBA. I share my experience playing with NBA players and what I learned about the difference between the top 1% and everyone else. It’s not just about talent—it’s about habits, instincts, and consistency. Listen in to see how you can use these same traits to stand out in your career.
